The stay was exactly what we expected and wanted based on description. Very relaxing, very clean. Had everything we needed. Felt secluded and quiet yet close to town. I rate this a 5 out of 5 because the one negative thing I would mention is you can hear the many trains going through town. Hosts Description of parking and driveway was accurate and if you have a full size truck, be prepared to make a couple two point turns if going all the way up. Worth it tho. The view of the lake is incredible and the soaks in the hot tub on a chilly day looking over that view was awesome!

This place was awesome. Exactly as described. The perfect place to escape for a couple days. My favorite things were: hot tubbing under the stars and the three-head shower!The house is well stocked with anything you might need, from kitchen appliances to board games and books. We also enjoyed exploring the property, which has a stream. The host was also communicative and friendly. We hope to return in the future.

Perfect little getaway spot.

Property was super clean and had everything that we needed to be able to enjoy our stay. Perfect location to get to town or Schweitzer, but also tucked in the trees so you felt like you were away from it all.

We came here from Oregon as an early celebration of our 10th anniversary.This place was exactly what we hoped for. The views are spectacular, the hot tub is absolutely perfect after a day of hiking or kayaking, and somehow even the toilet paper deserves a mention — genuinely the best we’ve come across in all our travels!We also highly recommend Round Lake to anyone looking for a peaceful, placid paddle or swim surrounded by nature. It was one of our favorite little discoveries of the trip.Another absolute highlight was Arlo’s in Sandpoint. We tried a variety of things from the menu, and every last thing was a 5/5. The service was also some of the best we’ve experienced in years — thoughtful, attentive, and somehow always one step ahead of what we needed. Our server even brought us a complimentary piece of pizza they’re considering adding to the menu. We really hope they do, because that was amazing too!The owners of The Tower have a true hidden gem here, and from all the thoughtful details, care, and quality throughout the property, it’s clear they know just how special this place is.Thank you for sharing this wonderful little corner of the world with us. We’re very grateful for the memories we made here.
