The Loft was a great place to stay. All was as described and communication was great. Located a short walk from downtown, we were able to enjoy a stroll through the beautiful neighborhoods down to the lake and beyond. It was fairly hot and smoky, so it was nice when we got back to the Loft to stay inside and cool down. The owner did a great job on this place. Would recommend for someone not wanting to be in the middle of the action but close enough to join.

This home is stunning and very clean. I’m a vendor at the Taste of CDA so it was nice to be able to walk to and from the park. The garage is large enough for a 13 passenger van. It’s very private and quiet. We’ll be back.

Perfect stay in Coeur d'Alene

Although we only stayed two nights, we thoroughly enjoyed Coeur d'Alene and the Loft!! The location was great for walking to the shoreline and downtown locations. Two "must-do's" were the dinner cruise and the Dr. Bird Aviation Museum at the airport. The loft had everything we needed to make the stay super comfortable!!

Hidden Gem

We had a great time during our stay at the Loft. It is a home away from home, and David is an excellent host providing great amenities for the outdoors. Our visit was mainly to see our son, but we did so much more in this lakefront town of Couer d'Alene. The loft had everything we needed for the perfect visit!

Private & Spacious

My 23 year old daughter & I drove over from Montana to enjoy a few days on the lake. This place is super close to everything & walkable to the beach. The upstairs covered deck was super sweet in the morning & at night. The property is well stocked and very comfortable. We met the host & he was very kind. 10 thumbs up! Thanks so much!

About the host

Hosted by David Groth

Host profile image
In June of 2016, I retired after 37 years as an elementary school teacher and principal in Coeur d'Alene. I love what is accessible from the loft and my house, (on the same property) by foot, on bikes or by car. I enjoy great hiking, fishing, bicycling, cross country and alpine skiing within 45 minutes. I love Coeur d'Alene!

Why they chose this property

I have lived in this neighborhood since 1983; the loft is on the back of the property where I live.

What makes this property unique

I enjoy walking three minutes to the lake, biking the Centennial Trail from my house, walking to events and restaurants and bars downtown and at North Idaho College. I have rented to Ironman athletes for each of the 12 years of the event, and in 2009 and 2011 I completed the race.
