Kat, It's great to hear that you enjoyed your stay, This home offers a perfect blend of spaciousness and cozy spots to unwind, and watching the snow fall over Lake Pend Oreile is truly a magical experience. Thank you for recognizing our commitment to cleanliness and organization, as well as our responsiveness. We hope to welcome you back soon! Best Regards - Daugherty Management
The house was wonderful. So much space, great kitchen, and the upstairs was set up so you could have two separate family groups up there. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was the outside area around the house was just tall weeds. If those had been cut down it would have felt more inviting. The area down at the river was very nice. Be sure to wear water shoes as the rocks are a bit slippery.
