About this property
Blissful Lakefront Living Minutes From Dover Bay & Sandpoint
The Lakeshore Lodge is a stunning, 5-bedroom retreat on the shores of beautiful Lake Pend O'Reille. Located at the end of a tranquil, traffic-free lane, Lakeshore Lodge offers blissful seclusion yet is only 3 minutes from the Dover Bay community and 7 minutes from Sandpoint, Idaho - voted America's 'Most Beautiful Small Town' by USA Today and Rand McNally.
Lakeshore Lodge is all North Idaho - big beams, big trees, big views - but step inside and you'll discover a retreat that is more chic than rustic: the wood and stainless steel kitchen; the ridiculously comfortable leather sofa set; the elegant tiled bathrooms; the spacious bedrooms (all but one facing the lake); the ample second-floor deck; the jacuzzi etc.
Just a few steps from the front door brings you to our private deck and L-shaped dock. You'll enjoy this special spot all year round: swimming, boating, paddling or just admiring the glorious views across the lake with a glass of wine in hand.
The expansive backyard is big enough for a family soccer match and includes a large jungle gym for the little ones. The back deck is perfect for barbecuing and has a large jacuzzi for relaxing tired muscles after a long day skiing at Schweitzer or hiking the area's numerous trails.
The Lakeshore Lodge has five bedrooms: two on the ground floor and three (including the master) on the second floor. The standard bed set up is three queens, one twin and a double set of bunk beds (big enough for adults.) We've also got a high-quality queen blow-up bed for bigger groups. Two big families? Three couples? No problem.
It has three bathrooms: one downstairs (2 sinks, 1 shower, 1 toilet) and two upstairs (master en suite with 2 sinks + shared bathroom for the other two bedrooms.)
Other appliances / amenities of note: LCD TV with cable, DVD player, wine fridge (I can stock with bottles from my collection if you're interested), gas fireplace with hearth.
Another plus: my property manager is your next door neighbor, and my relatives are all over town. There will always be somebody who can help if you have any issues or need local guidance on where to go and what to see!

This was our second year with our family at Dover Bay….our three grown children, their spouses and 6 grandchildren ages 14 to 22; perfect week and the accommodations were excellent, we have booked a week for year three at Dover Bay💓💓
Thank you!!
Our group of 10 greatly enjoyed our stay at the Lakeshore Lodge. The place was well furnished, the kitchen was well stocked, and the numerous games, puzzles & books and the hot tub kept us entertained. The location was also excellent--right on the lake, very close to Sandpoint, and 30 mts from Schweitzer. Communication was always prompt as well. Highly recommend.
Well stocked kitchen. Simple check-in & out. Very clean property. Great lake access. Enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. Only complaint is the window coverings in each room let in too much light. Makes for kiddos being up really early! Enjoyed our time & would like to stay again, but I believe the price for next year is quite a bit higher.
This was our second stay at this property and it was as wonderful as the first time. The house is great for our family and we created many more memories. The house, yard, and dock were fantastic!
This house is everything we were hoping for and more. Perfect location for a week in paradise. It had absolutely everything we needed, tons of space, a fabulous kitchen,and the best swimming dock. We can’t wait to come back.
We loved returning to this beautiful home for the second summer in a row. It has absolutely everything you could need or want for a family vacation. We hope to come back again soon!
This was our second year staying here with our family. The home and property are outstanding, everything from appliances to art is thoughtfully curated. Great place to stay if you have lots of ages to entertain. Close to marina and trails and quiet neighborhood.
What a beautiful home to spend some family ski time in. We were close to the mountain , and had a beautiful view of the lake. This home had everything we could possibly need. Fantastic time!
Securing this property was convenient and easy, important for those of us that struggle with todays technology😊
Everyone I dealt with was kind and ready to help⭐️⭐️
Wonderful property, perfect for family getaway! House was immaculate yet homey with everything needed to enjoy a week at the lake. Grandsons loved the outdoor play space and yard. Dock was perfect to park boat, swim and fish. We will be back!
This is our 3rd stay at this property. It has everything to ensure a wonderful vacation. Owner and property manager are welcoming and great to work with. The house is fully equipped at every level. All you need to do is show up ready for a grwat time. I highly recommend this property.
Everything was better than described in the details of the property.
The home was very clean, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything I needed to prepare meals for nine people. The home is beautiful and very well maintained. The location was quiet but yet close to town and right on the lake. I will rent here again.
We loved our stay! The house was clean and fit our needs perfectly. The neighborhood is quiet and the lake is absolutely beautiful. The amenities at the home are fantastic. The bedding and towels are great, two refrigerators, two dryers for beach towels, a big back yard and large dock worked really well for our family. We will definitely rent this property again!
Had a great Family Vacation. House is beautiful, has everything you need. View can’t be beat. Large house, lots of room for everyone. Great back yard for our 4 little kids.
Great vacation get away! Wonderful entertaining space for our family playing games, eating and indulging in the outdoor spaces (swimming, hot tub, covered deck area and even a bonfire pit). We enjoyed every minute and would definitely return. Thank you, Scott, for sharing your beautiful home.
This property was absolutely fantastic. The house is beautiful, clean and very nicely furnished. Location was right on the lake in little Dover. We swam from the dock every day and enjoyed the multiple patio settings. Inside the house was amazing - kitchen was extremely well stocked, the rooms were beautiful, the beds were comfy. Our party of 8 had ample room to relax. Highly recommend this place!
We had a wonderful stay - the property was beautiful, well-maintained and in an ideal location. The house was thoughtfully organized and the amenities were appreciated. House manager was responsive and even proactive. We have added this rental to the top of our faves list. Thank you!!
All in our family group repeatedly commented on how very nice the Lake Lodge was: lake location, inside spaces, bed/bathrooms,, laundry,totally outfitted kitchen, outside spaces, waterside spaces, backyard. Scott checked on us on first day and Bridgette, next door, always available by phone or in person for questions. We all very satisfied with our stay. Hopefully can return.
