About this property

The Cabin or berm house (partially underground - acts as A/C) is on our 60-acre magical park like setting property on Chain Lake, an 80-acre lake. You can paddle to the water fall on the other side of the lake or fish for rainbow trout, largemouth bass and perch, hike, walk, run, read or nap under a tree, listen to music, meditate, birdwatch…and if you like to road bike up hilly roads - I am happy to share my favorite routes. We also like to go to Newport or Deer Park to golf.

We are 30 minutes to Priest River (for dinner) 20 minutes to Newport (to shop for groceries, farmers market and one of my favorite clothes store-Shanty) and about 50 minutes to the South Hill in Spokane.

The cabin is a berm house that can comfortably host 4 adults. It stays cool during the summer and cozy warm in the winter. We enjoyed many weekends, summer vacations and holidays in the berm house when our kids were young. Eventually we built a place next door so now we can have company and can share our special place with others.

Our property is in Enchantment Valley where there are 6 other families who own separate properties.

The whole group will be comfortable in this spacious and unique space. 4 guests (5 if you use the living room), 2 bedrooms 2 beds (King and Queen), living room, den/office/sunroom, kitchen, laundry and full bath. Access to lake shore to launch your boat (motorless), or swim (water is deep) as well as hiking trails along the lake on the old railroad bed.

The Great Northern railroad line ran through our valley from 1891 for 100 years. In 1906 the train derailed at the exit of the tunnel into the lake and 12 people died. The train was pulled out of the lake and a new train tunnel was built. We take long hikes along the lake where the railroad line used to travel.

Peaceful

Even though there are surrounding properties it’s very quiet. If you pack well you won’t have to go into town much it’s far from the busy town. Plenty of nature and adventure around. We went with our two little ones under 3 and dog.

Not for us

The home is located in a very lovely setting. It is quiet and tree filled and during the short time we were there we saw a lot of wild life. The house is well appointed and the king size bed was super comfortable. It is very dark inside and you may need to bring task lighting. We stayed only one night of our stay because the house needed a deep cleaning.

A Fun Adventure!

It was the perfect spot for my dog and me! Why? Because after an all-day drive from the Coast we were greeted by our welcoming hosts, beautiful scenery, and rustic charm. We spent our 3-night stay enjoying the beauty of the place: the quiet, the peacefulness, and the serenity. Spending time at the lake and taking a short walk to the remains of the tunnel where we sat and enjoyed the view were our Nature moments which we enjoyed daily. The berm house was a great experience, especially for its indoor coolness when the temperatures were so high outside. It's a fun adventure. I suggest you take it!

Very cool

The berm house is cool, literally and figuratively. It is totally worth the short walk to see the railroad tunnels!!! We caught some baby perch fishing from shore. We didn’t take the canoe out but probably should have. The lake is beautiful. The hosts were excellent. Overall very happy with our stay

Why they chose this property

Our property is magical. Our friends come here and find it amazing and wish that they had found a property like ours. We do not have motorized boats on our lake because it is only 80 acres. We love to paddle around and find new treasures along the shoreline. It is so peaceful here. We are an integral part of our property and enjoy the natural beauty and environment. We are environmentalists and love to share our place with other like minded people.
