Experience the unmatched beauty of Northern Idaho like never before at this one-of-a-kind lodge on the Clark Fork River. With a perfect sense of seclusion right on the water, you will have your own private Idaho to return to while still being near Hope, Sandpoint, and the Montana border. Whether you have come to take advantage of river access, check out Lake Pend Oreille, or shred fresh powder at Schweitzer Mountain, this will be the perfect jumping-off point for year-round adventures.
When you find yourself at home base, this getaway features seven private bedrooms, four bathrooms, a private hot tub overlooking the river, a dock, and a huge game room with a pool table, shuffleboard, video game (Frogger), bar area, sitting tables, and a large flatscreen TV, so each guest will have no trouble finding their own way to have fun. The main floor features a living room with vaulted ceilings and river views, a large open kitchen, a dining room, and access to a wonderful outside deck that will be just the place to sip a cocktail at sunset. Plus, you won't have to worry about nosy neighbors, as this home is surrounded by wooded acreage. Don't forget to take advantage of the basketball hoop when warmer weather rolls in!
When you want to get a bit of rest after full days of adventure, two bedrooms await on the lower floor, two bedrooms are above the garage, and three bedrooms are on the upper level allowing everyone to spread out.

House was fantastic! All the amenities one one need. Clean and everything worked. Its secluded, which we all liked being from Montana. Did a fair amount of fishing, it was decent even though it was the firat time we fished the area. The nearest ramp is close but with a big boat, and it being a river to the house, it was tricky to navigate to the property. Loved our stay!

Little slice of paradise
We just spent a long friends/family weekend here in October. The location in the woods and riverfront is stunning and the views even more so. We lucked into beautiful warm weather and the colors here are gorgeous. There is literally something for everyone. Hot tub, pool, shuffleboard, poker, arcade table, fire pit, outdoor grill, board games, basketball hoop, streaming services, chef's kitchen. The grounds are beautiful with porch chairs in front and back. We look forward to coming back in the summer with a boat, to take in all the activities that go with a house on the river with direct access to Lake Pend Oreille.
We can’t say enough great things about this beautiful lodge! We all loved the spacious bedrooms, fun entertaining areas, and the great outdoors. Sitting in the hot tub and watching the bald eagles over the river was breathtaking. The gourmet kitchen was a treat to work in while everyone could still visit thanks to the openness. We will definitely be back!!!

River view Hideout
This house has an awesome layout, accommodating a larger group that can still have their own privacy. Gorgeous river views. Quiet. Very sturdy large dock to hang out on (when the river flows settle down). Out in the country, yet close enough to town if you need to get something from the store. Huge game room that has something for everyone. Large, clean hot tub that has a great view of the river. Nice fenced in yard that is safe for kids and large enough for outdoor games. Highly recommend.
