Great place to enjoy priest Lake

The location was perfect for us to be near the airstrip, the seaplane base, and the lake. Hosts were communicative and everything worked great. Will be back!

Comfortable home and close to Cavanaugh’s restaurant. We spent our days at Luby Bay so not super convenient for us, but we knew that when we rented the place. I think it’s a great value for an area with fairly expensive rentals. Love the covered front porch. Owner is very responsive. Definitely recommend.

We have camped at priest lake since 1972. I’m 70 now. Told my husband we need a house. The four days we were there it rained I kept thinking how lucky I was to be in the house. It’s a good location. Open kitchen was great. Will rent it again. Very clean and set up for guest.

Great Location to Priest Lake

This place provide a perfect spot if you don’t need to be on the lake but want to access several areas of the lake from here. Large open living room and kitchen made it great for cooking and visiting.

Nice place.

The listing had some inaccuracies regarding the surrounding facilities. The house was nice and adequately furnished. As I have stayed at many vacation rentals the house is totally adequate. However it is not managed with the love and attention to detail of what I would call a nice vacation rental. Things like the welcome information placket were from the prior owner with their contact info even though they haven’t owned the property for 8 years, with no other info packet with phone numbers in case of emergency , problems or information regarding the property.Nothing earth shaking but clearly not much attention to personal detail in the management process. The over all process is adequate in a machine like process so most everything works as advertised.

Great location and very clean house!

Very happy with our stay! The location for us was perfect. We very much enjoyed the size of the home and appreciated the easy access to many of the areas we went to on this side of the lake. Cell service is typically pretty good, but was spotty that trip because of some electrical storms that came through. I believe there is a plan to install Starlink there, so looking forward to that for our next stay! House was very clean and had enough pots and pans to cook our meals. The master bedroom was a great size- plenty of space for both of us + our infant.
