Short stay with family

Not easy to find places at priest lake but this one was a gem for our family. It has access to the lake with a 5 min walk and plenty of places to sleep. We spent most of our time outdoors so this served as a good home base. Only wish would have been dock access but at this price I wasn’t expecting it. Would definitely stay again.

Best trip so far

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. My kids are 9 and 10 and deemed this "the best rental" that mom has picked so far. We found everything we could need and we were close enough to the lake that the drive each day wasn't an issue. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their privacy.

Nice cabin near the lake

Check in was easy. We arrived at night and went right to bed. It gets very chilly at night so make sure to set a fire and wake up to tend to it or you will wake up freezing! Clean place stocked with pots, pans, utensils. Probably won’t be back out to this area again in my lifetime but if I ever am, i’d stay here again :)

Charming Little House

A large living, dining, kitchen area allowed lots of family time. Single bathroom had an on-demand hot water heater that did a good job of hearing the water quickly and steadily. A separate water heater for the kitchen was very nice. There is no washing machine or drying line, but there is a laundry mat not too far away. Very cute little place. Would stay there again.

Weekend stay

Nice small cabin with enough space for our family of 4 and space for more if need be, had all the amenities minus Wi-Fi, we have Verizon and it seemed to work fine. Parking was difficult read parking description and special instructions, if you have a full size truck and trailer over 12-14 feet you will have a tough time parking at this cabin.

Great private cabin at end of the road!

Wes has a blast at the cabin in the woods!! This cabin(s) are tucked away at the end of a road / cul-de-sac. There’s a second cabin behind the bigger cabin that sleeps for people if needed the cabin had everything we needed for cooking, and all the beds are very comfortable, the highlight of the cabin was great communication with the owner and very happy with the cleanliness of the cabin! We will be back!!

Another great stay at the cabin in the woods! Jeff is an absolutely great host taking care of any and all needs that have come up during our various stays at his comfy cabin. The central location is great as it is only 15 minute drive North to Beaver Campground and the majestic Priest Lake Thoroughfare for some amazing paddle boarding and fishing. And only 15 minutes drive south to Hills Resort and Tamrak grocery store. The Ledgewood public beach, Elkins Resort, and the small Norman grocery store and bar are all within five minutes drive.Jeff‘s Cabin in the Wood takes primary advantage of all the magnesite native cedar trees and that wonderfully unique aroma they bring to the forest setting.And special props to the cleaners! The cabin is always well capped and very clean. Can’t wait till next year!

Priest Lake Getaway

The cabin was located in a neighborhood at the end of the street. There was a trail that we could walk our dog. There wasn’t WiFi which was disappointing. There also was not lake access but there is a park just a short drive away on the lake. Priest Lake is beautiful but we had some smoke from the fires.

Hi there! Sorry to hear you didn’t make it to our beach access! The directions on how to walk there are in the welcome packet, as well as on the wall next to the front door. As far as the Wifi goes it’s really hit and miss in general but we are really hoping to have Wifi next year! Thank you so much for staying with us, we hope to hear from you again for another stay!!

Lovely little cabin!

My family of 4 stayed here mid-July & it was perfect for what we needed. Close to the lake & the nearby beach was wonderful. Boat rental in Coolin was only a 30 minute drive. Priest Lake is absolutely gorgeous! The cabin is at the end of the road so very quiet & peaceful. The washer & dryer aren’t in the cabin, but nearby. I missed that when I read the property details. Cabin stayed comfortably cool even in the 90° weather with the AC unit & fans. Walking trails in the woods are great for after dinner walks. We would definitely stay here again. Jeff was very responsive & super kind.

Idaho get away from Washington.

Loved the place and wasn't ready to leave. Just a few little things went wrong....The fuse kept popping and we couldn't find the fuse box, but, Jeff came to the rescue and went all laughed afterwards for not looking behind a picture. Lights outside were not working so for us old folks it was kinda hard to see at night to go to the bunkhouse to sleep. Otherwise, it was a wonderful place to stay and relax with the family. Clean, quite, and people around the cabin were very friendly.

Recommend

Overall, nice place-nice stay. Would recommend following. * Make sure LP tank barbeque is filled up. Was empty so wasn't able to to grill meals we had planned. * Alot of live spiders( Hobo) thru out interior of cabin. As I was in the Pest Control Industry 16 yrs, , would suggest placing 'sticky boards" (no chemicals involved) all around interior walls behind furniture & in bathroom. * Would suggest a safer method to get up in loft in Bunk as a opposed to an old ladder. Other than that, Bunk was recently remodeled & very nice.

Thanks for the recommendations!! There is however spare propane ( LP ) in the shed! As Far as the spiders, during your stay we were in the first of a series of treatments to the property. We have high hopes this will improve the issue! We did place sticky traps out to help however! We’re still looking for the best and safest solution to access the loft in the bunkhouse, we found that ladder was best so far as it can be moved out of the way when not in use. Glad you enjoyed your stay, hope to see you again!

Great little cabin by the lake!

We had a wonderful time at this cabin with our 2 families! It is tucked away at the end of a pretty quiet road and we felt safe and cozy. Both the cabin and the bunk house stayed cool and we were comfortable our entire stay. The bunk house was great and allowed us to put our 4 year old to bed separately so the rest of us could enjoy game nights and movies (they have TONS of DVDs!!) in the main cabin with out waking her (we brought a baby monitor which worked great!) The water access is an easy little walk down the road but we brought our boat and moored it, so we never swam at the lake access. We used Granite Creek Marina which was a quick 5 minute car ride. Definitely recommend! From the start, the hosts were very responsive and were helpful and friendly. They left local maps of close by places, including huckleberry corridors. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. This place was exactly what we were hoping for and we all left feeling happy, recharged, and grateful! We would definitely stay here again!

Cabin in the Woods

It was August however it was 45 degrees at night. The power went out and it was pitch black. Found a flash light with out batteries. The a/c,heat unit wasn't plumbed right and it only ran for an hour at a time. Finally found a tiny little 2 foot heater that was really loud and didn't do much. No firewood for the fireplace. Which we understand due to the time of yr. The railing on the wall to go upstairs was loose wich could have been a disaster if we we had been upstairs during the power outage and had to go downstairs in the dark. The cabin was very clean with hard hard bedsloooseloose. That

Cute cabin in the woods

We were so happy to find this cute cabin with a bunk house. We are a family of 5 with adult children. It was perfect for us! It’s just a short walk to lake access where we enjoyed morning coffee every morning. It’s a small area with about 6 chairs and a bench and each time we were there it was just us. So peaceful! We did not go to the public beach because we had family near by and always went to their private beach but we passed by the public beach. It was crazy crowded one day which I believe was a Sunday but the other days during the week it was pretty empty. They had lots of extra supplies that are not always included in a vacation rental which was a nice surprise. The only negative for this place would be that 5 of us shared one bathroom which was challenging some days. We knew this going in but worth mentioning. I would recommend adding a couple mirrors somewhere else besides the bathroom so others can have that while getting ready after showering. I don’t recall if there was one in the bunkhouse. Overall we are extremely happy with our stay and will definitely stay there again when we go back!

PEACEFUL PRIEST LAKE BUNGALOW IN THE WOODS

We had a wonderful early August stay at Jeff's cabin. It is centrally located on Priest Lake's West Side just above Elkins Resort and Ledgewood Public Beach. Jeff's cabin is wonderful in that it reminds me of our family cabin on Pinto Point that we owned from the late 50's until we had to sell it in the late 90's. It is wonderfully homey and just what you would expect from a cabin---lots of character and charm---and not a sterile McMansion. Very clean with no pests. Amenities included Smart TVs in the cabin and the bunkhouse (currently there is no wi-fi but we were able to stream fairly easily using the hot spot on our Verizon phones. Lots of DVDs as well! A very large refrigerator/freezer. New glass top electrical oven, and outdoor BBQ. A one block walk takes you to a small beach access.Small but a nice spot to swim and lake watch. 1.5 miles away is Ledgewood Public Beach with it's nice sandy beach. A 15 minute drive south gets you to Hills Resort (the largest resort on the lake with great food/bar scene and beautiful ;lakeside sunsets on the deck overlooking the lake) and Tamrack (the only real grocery store on the lake). A 15 minute drive north gets you to Beaver Campground Public Day Use beaches and to the famed Priest Lake Thorofare. We took the 200 yard trail from the the north side of the campground down to the Thorofare and put in our Stand Up Paddleboards for one of the most memorable paddles I have experienced. Great fishing as well! Thanks Jeff!!!

About the host

Hosted by Jeff Johnson

Host profile image
We have been staying at this cabin for 10 years and we’re fortunate to purchase it from our family friend in 2021!! We love the outdoors and spend most of our time in it!!

Why they chose this property

Family owned since 1968! Very cozy and family friendly. Unique that it only has neighbors on 1 side allows for privacy while being close to attractions. There’s so much to do in the Priest Lake area besides the lake itself! Hiking, the local attractions, our favorite are all the smaller mountain lakes surrounding the area! Granite rock slides on the east side or the gorgeous Chase or Petite lake on the west side!

What makes this property unique

Far enough to be very quiet, while still only being a short drive from every attraction in area!
