Relax on one of the two spacious decks, each offering incredible panoramic views of Camp Bay. Enjoy a morning coffee, a family meal, or simply soak in the tranquility of your surroundings.
A Tranquil Setting:

Thank you, Frank. We hope you'll return! John and Mel
It was a great relaxing time with the whole family. The home was very clean, with amenities and essential supplies. The "welcome" pastry and quiche tasted "awesome" to everyone!! Fishing was very good, too from the dock. The host was excellent communicator and responsive to my questions prior to our stay. I have already reserved for next year's stay.

We had a great experience. Mel was a wonderful and thoughtful host. She answered our inquires about the area through out our stay. The home is has above and beyond everything you need. This was a very peaceful and relaxing area. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and kayaking almost every day.

Chuck, thank you vry much for your kind comments. We hope you'll return someday! John and Mel.
We enjoyed our beautiful stay at the lake. From fishing off the dock to swimming, tubing, and roasting hot dogs or marshmallows, every moment was delightful. Waking up and enjoying a cup of coffee while taking in the beautiful view from the deck was a highlight. The memories made there, with my family are priceless.
The house was warm, inviting, and super clean. Owners were easy to get in touch with and made the check in/out process seamless. If you bring your boat and it has a steering skeg on the hull it more than likely will not go on the boat lift. The dock is very sturdy with cleats and they also had kayaks and other lake toys.
The house was SO well appointed! I've stayed in a lot of VRBO's and this one was the best! Loved the views (we got to see the Northern Lights!) and enjoyed the kayaks.The hosts were in touch the whole time, wanting to be sure we had everything we needed. Couldn't have been better!

Amazing place to stay
We booked the cabin for a fishing trip, great set up, John had us all set up, with directions, info & even a contact to Moore our boat.
Cabin is fantastic, woodstove to take the chill off after a long day on the lake. Super clean & everything you need is here to have a good time.

Awesome Place
This place is very special. It is so peaceful and the view is spectacular. The house was immaculately clean and supplied with everything you could need. We loved hanging by the fire pit with plenty of wood to keep a warm fire going. A very cool place !!

What a beautiful place. Thank you, John and Melody for being such great hosts.
The beautiful Fourth of July cookies were a hit. There are so many things to do there and we try to take advantage of them all.
We made some lasting memories.

Perfect Get Away
My family had such a wonderful time. The cabin is really welcoming and comfortable and the Kearns family is very inviting. It was such a nice surprise to see all of the yummy goodies that were left for us by the Kearns family. My kids were in the lake from morning until evening and they had the best time ever. I highly recommend staying here for a very relaxing get away. We plan on visiting again.

About the host
Hosted by John Kearns
We, John and Melody, purchased this property in 2013, remodeled it and have used it for summer and winter vacations. We want to offer others the chance to enjoy this property as we have. We live in Coeur' d alene Idaho.John loves to boat. Melody is a designer at heart and tries to make this a fun place for our kids and family to visit. Its been a place to help get our older kids off the electronics. This is a quiet neighborhood. Cell phones don't always work, so they often explore, play games and use the firepit to make smores. We have a growing collection of movies.We love to go to the Captains Table for dinners or stop for snack attacks at Odie's General Store in Garfield Bay. If we need more there's always the stores in Sandpoint, or the larger grocery stores, one can stop at Pie Hut for dessert to go.
Why they chose this property
It's located on a beautiful and quiet Camp Bay, with a view of the Cabinet Mountains and expansive Lake Pend Oreille. Eagles soar and catch fish in the bay. The breezes pick up at night as do the waves. It is relaxing to hear the waves sounding like ocean waves (is your boat on the lift or securely tied up?) just outside the french door off the master bedroom.
What makes this property unique
This peaceful setting on Camp Bay offers visitors the chance to enjoy the unspoiled beauty of Lake Pend Oreille with only the soothing sound of a breeze through the trees and the occasional cry of an eagle flying overhead with a freshly caught fish in its talons. Come and enjoy this experience for yourself! Also, excellent fishing for huge Rainbows and Lake Trout in the largest lake in Idaho.
