Wonderful house with a great yard
Val is a fantastic host. The house is beautifully in appointed with everything you need. Wonderful walking area close to Dover beach. Close enough to everything, restaurants, food stores and downtown Sandpoint, but far enough away for privacy.

Great stay in Dover
The house is clean, open and inviting. We loved the AC during the heat. The yard is large a private. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen has everything needed, we ate most meals at the house during our 9 night stay. We would stay here again!

Adorable Home in Dover Bay!
This home was adorable and perfect for visiting my parents over the holiday break. It's been a light winter in north Idaho which meant we got to enjoy how close this home was to the water by taking a morning stroll down to the shore. Very easy to find and so close to Sandpoint. More than enough linens and house supplies plus the kitchen had plenty of appliances and dishware, which made cooking and enjoying meals together a breeze. Owners were quick to respond and great communicators. We would happily come back and stay again!

Safety idea
When we arrived home was unlocked and passcode is house address twice. Seems very easy to figure out and recommend one a bit more unique. Also code should be changed between guests if it is not. Otherwise, very happy. :)

This well-appointed Dover home was just perfect for the two of us and our little fur-friend. We made use of the full kitchen and the large grill out back. Will definitely stay here again; can't beat the price or the location.

Nice House in Quiet Neighborhood
We enjoyed our lengthy stay at this cute house in Dover. Large kitchen, bedroom and living room make for comfortable living. Kitchen is well appointed, with large kitchen island. House is situated close to Dover neighborhood's walking path and great waterfront restaurant, Dish. The host, Valerie was easy to work with and was in communication with us during the few snow storms we had during our stay to make sure our driveway was properly plowed out afterwards. She was one of the best hosts we have ever dealt with in our many stays we have had using VRBO. We have always stayed in downtown Sandpoint during our previous visits, but the serenity of Dover is refreshing.

Beautifully updated home in Dover ID
This property was super clean and looks newly remodeled inside. All modern amenities. It was perfect for my husband and my needs. Wonderful large fenced yard with views of the mountains. Lovely connecting neighborhoods for peaceful walks to the lake. Nice covered back deck with comfy seating and barbecue. Soft sheets, blankets, and towels. Fully equipped kitchen with lots of room and very nice dishes. Basic supplies like salt, pepper, oil, tinfoil, baggies, paper towel, toilet paper, etc. We wouldn’t expect more in this new Covid environment so we brought all else we needed. Do bring your own body soap and shampoos as those aren’t provided. The host was so responsive and kind. Loved the fireplace which heats the whole living area. I’d highly recommend this property.

We had a great stay at this home in Dover. It is a short, easy drive to the ski resort and near multiple restaurants in Sandpoint. Kitchen was well stocked. House is very nicely updated. Val was very receptive and a great communicator, and helped us navigate an issue which she fixed very quickly. We would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Val and Bill

Host profile image
We are Southern California natives who just recently discovered the beauty, nature and tranquility that Northern Idaho has to offer and are now blessed to call Idaho our second home. Sandpoint has abundant activities all year round, one can enjoy the Lake Pend Oreille and all the activities and beauty it has to offer along with Schweitzer Mountain Resort and all the fun and excitement it offers. We are happy just taking in the views and wildlife consisting of deer, moose, wild turkeys just to name a few.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this home at first sight. It is beautifully updated, cozy and quaint with easy maintenance. In backs up to the Dover Bay community, yet is free from their CC&Rs and HOA. It is within walking distance to beautiful Dover City Beach, which to us rivals any private beach.
