Perfect location on breath-taking lake. Close to a creek to explore by kayak and close but not in a busy marina. Love the private sandy beach and pier to launch all boating levels. Love the American flag with night light - which shows the attention to details you know they strive for. House was very clean and had everything we needed. The house is not new but has been renovated in many key areas. A wonderful place to relax.

Beautiful location! The cottage is cute and cozy, 1965 in its original glory downstairs with updated main bath. Perfect for our family of 5. The listing is accurate, and location just beautiful. The cottage is fully stocked with household items for a full meal prep, if you want to cook, or just use plates for sandwiches or bbq burger’s. The cottage was clean, welcoming, and cool when we arrived (portable A/C unit worked as well, but like the listing says: super hot days does take longer to cool the upstairs, but the evening cools the cottage off nicely). Communication with the owners was excellent and they responded immediately. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent!

It was a great experience staying here, we have a boat so it was perfect to have waterfront property with a dock and there was plenty of parking space for my pickup with the trailer as well as two other pickups that my friends and family drove up in. The sandy beach and shallow water were perfect for the kids to play on, and the amenities included on the place made it very convenient as far as what we needed to bring. Absolutely would stay here again!

A Little Piece of Heaven

As my grandpa always said, Priest Lake is "A Little Piece of Heaven." This cabin is perfect. It is right down the road from our family, a lovely walk to coffee and ice cream, with a deck and sandy beach to relax and enjoy the lake. We love it here.

Pleasant Holiday

We wanted to find a comfortable place for 8 adults that had a well stocked kitchen and a good, safe moorage for our wooden boat. The Sherwood Beach Cottage definitely checked all the boxes. We were impressed by the owners attention to detail and to all the amenities provided. It would have been nice if the outdoor dining table seated all eight adults. We would recommend this VRBO to future users.

Adorable and Perfect!

We’ve stayed at many places on Priest Lake and out of them all, this cottage is perfect! Greg put thought into every detail to make his home warm and welcoming for our family. The house was sparkly clean and well organized. The bedding was all fluffy and comfortable. We loved the sandy beach and shallow warm water. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all of our meals. My husband and I loved that we could look out the big picture window or sit on the deck with our wine and see the kids swimming. It’s so close to everything you need at the bottom of the lake (stores, laundry, restaurants). Greg was responsive, kind, caring, and accommodating! We hope to go back again soon!

GREG IS AWESOME!

2023 was our second time staying at Greg's cabin on Priest Lake because we love it so much. He is sincerely the sweetest and most thoughtful host. He provides us with everything we need to make our stay perfect and comfortable, including a little welcome basket with all kinds of treats. He's very communicative! As for the house, it's the perfect size for our family of 5. Great Kitchen, sitting areas, beds, deck, swimming area, and a slip for your boat. The kids love the sandy beach and the shallow water (So warm!). We also love to do puzzles in the evening on the big table in the living room. We are already looking forward to next year! Thanks Greg!

The deck and dock are in very rough shape.

The dock is in very rough shape. If there is any waves or wind the dock is almost completely under water. It is being held up by a few barrels strapped to the side of the dock. The walkway out to the dock is also very rough, wobbly, has very uneven boards, and needs a good stain. The deck is also in rough shape. The boards are uneven and it also really needs a stain, we had a lot of splinters throughout the week.

Ashley, We're very sorry for your experience with our dock. The dock deck was replaced in recent years, but we did lose some flotation in storms earlier this year. We were able to add some new flotation under the dock and the extra flotation barrels you mentioned as well. Those are temporary solutions until the dock builder is available for our long-term solution. The Cedar deck on the cottage is stained every other year and was stained in 2023. We will continue to maintain and improve it. Again, we regret that these items caused you disappointment. We hope you found the cottage, its location, and its amenities positive elements of your vacation.

Family vacation

Our family had a wonderful vacation at Preist Lake. The home was very well equipt , we cook a lot and loved the knife set- so sharp!! Greg is an Amazing host, he answers question promptly. If there are any issues , he's ready to help fix it as soon as he hears about it. The sandy clear bottom of the lake in fron of the house is stunning. So warm for swimming everyday, which we did during our stay. The walk out on the dock is not as small as the pictures show. Great place to dock a boat and nice to have the protected roof. The Marina at Coolin is so close and a great spot for coffee, ice cream and supper friendly folks. We kayaked around the lake, Coolin and the Bays closeby. Terrific home- Thanks for a great stay!!!

Family Vacation at Priest Lake

Our family had a wonderful week at Priest Lake. If you’ve never been to Priest before you are missing out! It is truly the most idyllic lake vacation there is. Boating, fishing, hiking, ATV trails, huckleberry picking, exploring the mountains are all available right outside your doorstep. At the end of the day, dinner and drinks at Hill’s or Elkin’s Resorts are a quick boat ride away. Both have excellent menus. Lunch at Cavanaugh’s is fantastic. A walk down to the Leonard Paul Store for ice cream and souvenirs is a favorite tradition for our kids. Priest Lake golf course is absolutely beautiful. You can even boat over to Hill’s and rent a golf cart there and then it’s a short ride over to the course. For a full day adventure, boating to the Upper Priest Lake will not disappoint. It a place to make lifelong family memories. Be sure to pack well though as it’s a long boat trip and very remote. We like to rent our boats from Crown Jewel Sports in Coolin. This cabin was wonderful. Very clean, all necessities were available. A nice boat dock, great eating spaces, lots of parking, lots of beach chairs for gathering around the fire. Nothing was missed. Greg was very nice and really easy to work with. Steamboat Bay is a perfect location. It’s not too far from amenities and has a nice shallow swimming area for younger children. We will definitely stay here again.

Great Cabin!

Greg’s cabin is the perfect Priest Lake cabin! Everything was extremely clean and the space was great. The shallow water was perfect for the kids to play, the only downside was we had to walk our boat into the dock, but that really wasn’t a big deal at all! We would absolutely stay at this cabin again and again!

Delightful!

What a treat it was to stay in such a clean and well appointed cabin. From the moment we requested to book through the sad, last day of our trip, it was complete smooth sailing with super quick responses from the host, well laid out instructions and suggestions, sparkling clean spaces, and ample, quality linens. It was very evident the hosts put in a lot of thought, effort and care into creating a wonderful getaway spot. Can't say enough good things about this spot!

Beautiful PRIEST LAKE

Wonderful cabin. Easy access and location. We had a WONDERFUL time here....with out a doubt. We had all the amenities we needed and some. All the rooms were beautiful and newly updated baths. We had wonderful neighbors and SMALL world as they are neighbors back in Spokane. Would HIGLY recommend and would stay here in the future but stay for 2 weeks as with the late check in ( 4 PM ) and early check out ( 10 AM ) it really only felt like 6 days. Regardless we had a great time.........THANK YOU MUCH (:

The Perfect Summer Getaway

This cabin was perfect for our family of 4 + our friends (another family of 4). It is stocked with everything you need for a relaxing week at the lake, including a propane fire pit. The propane fire pit enabled us to safely roast smores at night even with the fire ban. As you know, it isn't a trip to the lake without smores. There was plenty of outdoor seating for everyone, and you can easily sit in the shade or sun, depending on your preference. The kids LOVED the sandy beach and being able to touch far beyond the dock. The fabulous Tyee Coffee Shop in Coolin is an easy 2.5 miles walk away for morning coffee or ice cream (5 miles round trip). You really could not ask for a better location.

Maegan, thank you for sharing your experience at our cottage! We agree that S'mores are critical to a lake vacation and are happy the propane fire pit worked for you during the northwest's "real fire" ban. Tyee is one of our favorite PL destinations, too. We hope to host you again in future years!
