About this property

Lakeside Cabin at Check-In Bay

A welcoming Lakehouse and Optional Airstream. The perfect combination to escape the everyday crazy. A swim/boat dock is a quick walk down to the water.
Originally constructed in the 50's, this fishing cabin was built as a weekend getaway. Totally remodeled but still with that fishing cabin and eclectic lake-house charm. Stay with us once and it will be your go-to lakehouse for years to come. Relaxing and Fun-
We promise!

You will become a "local" in no time! In this quaint Check-In Bay community it's easy to make instant LAKE FRIENDS. If you are looking for a new Grand Lake vacation home to unwind and reconnect .... this is the place!

Friendly neighbors with LAKE ACCESS and VIEWS

Just minutes from Ketchum and Langley where there's shopping and places to eat. Grove and Vinita are also towns not too far away where you will find more restaurants and shopping.

Shared fishing and swim docks with space to tie up your water toys.

Just a few miles away from Ketchum, OK.
Great layout for those of ALL AGES. This is a single level cabin with EASY ACCESS.. No steps at the back patio entrance and a large shower with a small step-over threshold. Plenty of space to move around but still cozy and comfortable. Whether it's a family reunion with a variety of ages or just a couple trying to have some time alone, our Lakeside Cabin along with the Airstream adventure will not disappoint.

Open floor plan for entertaining. Fully stocked kitchen. Linens and bathroom amenities included. No-step entry if needed. Plenty of outdoor spaces to socialize or relax. Covered carport and patio

SLEEPING SPACES:
*Fishing Camp Bedroom*
With original pine paneling and rustic furniture reminiscent of the fishing cabin days of late 40's and 50's. Queen bed with memory foam topper and Cozy linens.

*Lakeside Bedroom*
A modern lake house look with new queen memory foam mattress. Perfect for those seeking a quiet space. Desk with Electronics plug-ins and a few drawers to keep your office supplies.

*Birds Nest Room*
(newly converted lakeside screened porch)---- Appropriately named by one of our grandsons. This room has two twin XL beds with new memory foam mattresses and lots of windows.. (room darkening curtains as well) Among the newly planted pines, this 3rd sleeping area has the best Lake View. A small desk, TV w/fire stick and Bolt Cable, room for a few sleeping bags or a floor mattress. (can be provided if requested prior to booking)

*Large Porch*
as we've always called it. A queen sleeper sofa and room darkening curtains make this a great "extra" space for guests. THE best room for entertaining a crowd. Large TV, Bar-height counter or serving space, direct pass-through to the kitchen, 1/2 bath is close, and exterior door to patio and steps from the lake.

*Living room* Large leather sectional can sleep 1 or 2 additional guests. Sleeping bags and floor mattresses could be provided for this room as well but we would need to know prior to booking to have them available for you. Coziest sleeping area during the winter when the fireplace is being used.

LIVING SPACES:
*Large 4-season Porch*
*Open living and kitchen/dining areas
*Large outdoor patio*
*Wrap Around Decking with bistro tables*
*The DOCK as we call it where our Airstreams are parked part of the year... great added deck space too and best view of the lake!*

Three miles from Ketchum and only a few more miles to Langley. Gas, convenience stores, groceries and places to eat just a short drive away.
Once in the area, You will mostly see people walking and on golf carts.


The perfect spot for a weekend getaway or family/friends reunion. Get out of town and make space for more free time at beautiful Grand Lake. The DockHouse Lakeside Cabin at Check-In Bay is a welcoming place for your retreat from "Busy". You won't be disappointed!
Don’t forget to ask about the Airstream addition and availability!

Weekend getaway
Had a weekend getaway with a few girl friends and it was AMAZING!! We first booked in June and by the second day, we were booking our second stay of the summer because we were having so much fun. The host is so sweet and the house has everything you need. We want to book as many trips as possible in the future.

It such an awesome experience! I would 10000% recommend staying here!

Excellent place
Amazing accommodations. House has everything you could want and think of. The dock amenities with the water mats and paddle board were a big hit with our kids. They used them for hours each day. Tamra is an amazing hostess and always responsive. This was our second time renting and will again for sure.

AMAZING Vacation Rental ! WILL RETURN!
I don't even know where to begin. Communication was fantastic before our stay, throughout our stay (when needed), and after. We were welcomed with fresh cookies (that tasted so good!!). The house was clean and just offered ultimate relaxation. The house is FULLY stoked with everything you could need or want. There is nothing missing from this house. We cannot wait to return and make even more precious memories!

Cabin Stay 6/22 - 6/25
Absolutely stunning place with amazing amenities that are above and beyond that I’ve ever seen and some that we have always wanted but never have gotten so that was great! May have to get some new toys now. We used to have a rental but got rid of it due to hassle and the breakages and all that but we didn’t have a great manager and person taking care of it for us so that was our learning curve. But your place is stunning and very well taken care of. If I had to give any suggestions and this is like it, it would literally only be two things that I can even think of is a paper towel holder in the kitchen and a fan for the patio area would be nice. Again really only an above perk. Summer nights get hot up here. Again thank you so much for letting us stay here as well loved every bit of it. Love this area and community too and it’s really grown on us. We are looking forward to our upcoming stay in about a month in July. Wife is really looking forward to getting to come and enjoy the house and the airstream. Thanks again.

Host profile image
I am a teacher at heart. Once out own children graduated, I dedided to leave the high school classroom to take a bit more control of how I spent my time.

Passions other than education include spending time with family and friends, Airstreams, gardening, baking and almost anything where I can get outside to enjoying nature.
My husband and I have 4 grown children and 8 grandchildren. God has blessed us immensely!
