This was the best VRBO we have ever stayed at. Jay and Kathy are such wonderful gracious hosts. The house is incredible and the views make you feel like you are in Europe. It you are coming to the lake this is the place to stay.

Beautiful home in nice neighborhood, lots of wildlife and close to lake. We felt very welcome with champagne and snacks, also chocolate treats throughout the house. Can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful and Welcoming Romantic Getaway

I booked this stay for my brother and his wife. They were enchanted by the breathtaking views, wonderful hospitality and delicious wine. They recently had a baby and were in serious need of some time to relax and recharge, there couldn't have been a more perfect location then the Lake Song Property with the most considerate hosts! Whether you are looking for a relaxing romantic getaway or a gathering with your friends and family this property is highly recommended! We will definitely be booking here in the future!

This house was amazing!

You could not ask for a better view! Everything was above and beyond our expectations! There was champagne and glasses waiting for us, along with a board of cheese, crackers, grapes, etc. Fresh flowers in so many cute places here and there. I could go on and on, but don't want to spoil your experience. The outside was amazing with so many places to sit and relax. Highly recommend!

Best Ever

From the moment you arrive, you are greeted with water and a tour of the property. Jay and Kathleen have worked hard to make sure your stay is the best it can possibly be. This was our first VRBO experience and frankly we’re concerned we have now been completely spoiled and anything after this will be a huge disappointment, J&K we’re the best and we have already planned coming back. We just wanted to stay, it was so hard to leave!

40th Anniversary Get Away!!

What you see with the pictures is what you get... perfection!! Jay and Kathleen are the perfect hosts, the only time we bumped into them was in the driveway and upon our departure. Plenty of treats and snacks are provided and the view is worth it all. While away for the day on a biking adventure they snuck a 40th anniversary dessert into the fridge. A pleasant surprise. If our travels take us to this location again, a return visit is a must!!

Perfect weekend

Jay and Kathy thought of everything from Champagne and crackers, to smores for the fire pit. The home has a beautiful lake view, lots of wildlife, and atmosphere for relaxing in elegance. The owners are quick to respond to needs and go out of thier way to be hospitable and welcoming. If ever I am back in Coeur d’ Alene I would stay at this location again.

One of the best!

First class accommodations, beautiful home, unbelievable view of the lake and surrounding mountains, outdoor patio / seating area, fire pit, hot tub! Jay and Kathleen are great people. I’ve never felt more cared for at any VRBO. I’d give them 10 stars if I could.

The Best VRBO Property and Hosts

What an incredible home. Jay and Kathy are simply the best hosts ever!! We enjoyed every moment. The property is situated in just the right spot with the most amazing views that are truly unforgettable. Every room in this fantastic home is so comfortable and classy. I can't say enough about our hosts, both are extraordinary, kind, helpful, and so thoughtful with every effort they made to make our stay special. Their generous efforts really made all the difference, and why we think this property and hosts should be anyone's number one pick if you're looking to stay in this tremendous home where your every need is so thoughtfully anticipated before you even arrive. Thank you Jay and Kathy for everything and we look forward to the next time we can visit.

Lovely home with magnificent view

We stayed at Jay and Cathy’s house Easter weekend. I was stunned by the beautiful view. Jay and Cathy are amazing hosts. They even had a charcuterie tray for us in the fridge. The house is beautiful and I cannot say enough about the view of Lake Couer D’Alene. Everything we could have wanted and more. The hosts do live on the property but they aren’t intrusive. I really want to live there forever!

Best VRBO experience we’ve ever had!

Lake Song Estates is amazing and beyond even what the pictures show and Kathy and Jay were wonderful! While they were clear they would give us complete privacy if that was what we wished, we thorough enjoyed getting to know them so that by the end of our visit they weren’t just our hosts but had become our good friends! They are people of amazing thoughtfulness, kindness and generosity. Our family’s visit to their beautiful home ranks as the best VRBO stay we’ve ever had in over 10 years of using these type of accommodation services for our traveling and vacation needs. We hope to return as soon as we are able for another visit! Loved Coeur d’Alene, loved Lake Song Estates and loved meeting and getting to know Jay and Kathy! Cannot recommend enough!!!

What a beautiful place with unmatched views of the lake!

We stayed 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it! We made good use of the hot tub and fire pit with views of Coeur d'Alene Lake. Could not believe there were absolutely no mosquitos, as we fully expected to be spraying up to ward off insects. The house is very secluded which also allowed us to enjoy visits from lots of deer, hummingbirds and even eagles and osprey over the lake. Jay and Kathy made us feel like good friends, making their beautiful home open to us, with extra touches like champagne on ice, fresh flowers and trays of Lindt chocolates throughout the house. We had a great experience and would not hesitate to rebook here when in the area!

Stunning view, beautiful home, perfect getaway!

Amazing hosts, gorgeous views, beautiful home, perfect getaway!! We had the most wonderful weekend at Jay and Kathy’s residence. They are incredible hosts and go above and beyond to make you feel completely at home. They respond promptly to questions and are there quickly if you need anything! Both the indoor and outdoor spaces are wonderful. There are so many nooks to explore. We were thrilled when we got there and saw how amazing the property was. I can’t say enough wonderful things. Would absolutely recommend staying here. My friends and I can’t wait to come again! Thank you so much for such a wonderful time, Jay and Kathy! You have the gift of hosting. It was such a treat to get to stay in your beautiful home.

Paradise

This was the most exquisite VRBO we have ever had the pleasure of enjoying! The hosts were so accommodating and thoughtful. Our stay has EVERY comfort of our home; chilled and room temp bottled water, chocolate treats, muffins, cookies, bath robes, slippers, beach towels, quality shampoo, conditioner and body wash, plush blankets, laundry detergent and dryer sheets. It was pristine and had every kitchen appliance and spice possible. We cooked and entertained our local friends and the host made sure all the patio furniture was wiped down before their arrival. So thoughtful! The view was breathtaking, better than the photographs. I recommend this stay 1000%! I was not sure how it might be with the hosts on site, but we never really saw them and knew if we needed anything, they would be right there to help! It was wonderful!

5-Star Lake Retreat

This is not your ordinary vacation rental. Every aspect of this property met or exceeded our expectations. The interior of the home is lovingly decorated and jam-packed with amenities (see other reviews), including a treasure trove of chocolates for the taking. The outdoor space offers breathtaking views of the lake, a hot tub, grill, fire pit, lawn games, and multiple seating areas to enjoy whatever activity your heart desires. Kathy and Jay have found the perfect balance of being readily available should guests need any little thing, to being completely unobtrusive while onsite so you can enjoy the privacy and serenity of this spectacular location. There is a plaque on the dining nook wall, “Enter as strangers. Leave as friends.” This was exactly our experience. We plan to make Lake Song our new summer vacation destination. Thank you Kathy and Jay, for an experience we will cherish.

Entering rental space unannounced

I very much enjoyed Kathleen and Jays hospitality. Although, I was not fully aware that they would enter and exit using the garage and enter in the space we rented to enter to the apartment. Everyone felt uncomfortable as they popped in unannounced a Couple of times. I did laundry at 11pm and he came in announced to check laundry. Definitely an invasion of privacy and the spa hot tub is in front of the host apartment so it was a challenge of trying to enjoy our weekend but feeling uncomfortable and uneasy host being able to come in as they please without notice or knock or call.

AMAZING GETAWAY

I brought my partner, daughter and best friend to stay for Memorial weekend to catch up and relax (very hard for me to do). It was an initial shock to the system that the owner's live and remain onsite as my search filter was set for full house but they were absolutely fantastic. Their home is beyond anything I could have hoped for and they stay in a separate area that is tucked away. The owner's gave us wonderful dinner recommendations and were delightful to interact with the few times that we did. All of us were able to truly relax and enjoy their cozy home with incredible views! There were a couple of things off on my phone's version of VRBO versus the website we discovered after our stay. For example, the check-in time was 4pm not 3pm. 3pm shows on the phone version. I suspect that is what led to the "whole house" confusion. But again, we would do it all over again and the owner's are fantastic! I truly feel like the owner's have done their best to disclose everything...VRBO issue?

Unbelievable Stay

There are usually only 2 reasons most people leave a review and that is either they had an absolutely fantastic experience or a really bad one and sadly, I fall in that category. But, I had to take a few minutes to leave a review because our stay at Jay & Kathy's property was one we will never forget. When we arrived we were greeted by Jay and he took time out of his day to show us around and give us the tour. We were in awe of the hospitality they both gave us which was above and beyond either of us have ever experienced at a VRBO property. We were 2 professionals looking for a few relaxing days and I don't think we could have found a better property to achieve that. The home and grounds are immacutely cared for and designed to make you feel like you are at home. On top of having a beautiful place to stay, we made some new friends. They took us out on their boat, brought food and drinks and we had such a wonderful time visiting we went back to the house and invited them to sit out with us on the patio. I can't say enough about how wonderful our trip was and we will definitely be back! I know there are some comments about the owners living on a wing of the house. Let me assure you that they never once invaded our privacy but were always available if we ever needed anything which was so nice. But, if you ever wanted to get to know them more than staying at their property you wouldn't be disappointed. Thank you, Jay & Kathy for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home.

Invasive, Unsafe, and Deceptive Host - Avoid This Rental!**

ZERO STARS!!! My experience at this VRBO rental was truly terrible. I booked this home to celebrate my 40th birthday, with the owner’s explicit permission to host guests for the occasion. Unfortunately, the entire experience was ruined by the host's appalling and invasive behavior. First, the listing was misleading. It advertised three bedrooms, but there were only two. That was just the beginning. The owner *entered the property without permission* while my guests were inside, took photos of them while they were sleeping, and then began yelling at us to leave and kicked us out. It was a deeply disturbing violation of privacy and left us feeling unsafe. The host and his family actually *live* in the home, which was never made clear. The house was cluttered with their belongings, and the fridge and freezer were packed with their food. Instead of feeling like a vacation rental, it felt as though we were intruding on someone’s personal space. Throughout the stay, the host harassed me with stressful texts. Even after we left, he continued to badger me with messages. On top of this, he tried to extort extra money, demanding money per guest above what we had agreed on. I have written proof of our original agreement, but he blatantly lied and attempted to get more money after the fact. This host showed a complete disregard for privacy, safety, and decency. If you value any of these things, *do not stay here*. What should have been a beautiful birthday turned into a nightmare.
