Our newly renovated patio is designed for comfort and enjoyment—perfect for BBQs, relaxing by the fire pit, or stargazing. The spacious backyard offers room to unwind, play cornhole, or enjoy a peaceful soak in the hot tub.

Unlike many larger homes with limited outdoor space, this cozy cottage offers a rare combination of a prime downtown location and a large, amenity-rich backyard—making it a standout alternative to hotel stays.

THE SPACE

The cottage features a bright living room with a sofa sleeper, a fully equipped kitchen, and a peaceful bedroom with soft, high-quality linens. It provides more space, comfort, and amenities than a typical hotel—often at a better value than other downtown rentals.

OUTDOOR OASIS

Relax in your private hot tub, grill on the patio, gather around the fire pit, or play cornhole in the spacious yard. With thoughtful design, fencing, and greenery, the outdoor space feels like your own private retreat in the heart of downtown.

PROPERTY LAYOUT & PRIVACY (SHARED YARD WITH PRIVACY FENCING – DETAILS BELOW)

We live next door and are available if needed, but your privacy is our top priority. We intentionally avoid using the backyard while guests are present, except for brief, necessary activities (such as entering/exiting or occasional maintenance like lawn care or snow removal). If maintenance is needed during your stay, we will always notify you in advance.

PROPERTY LAYOUT OVERVIEW:

The homes sit on separate lots but share a large backyard area

A 6-foot fence runs between the properties and extends partially into the yard, blocking direct sightlines between patios

The patio and hot tub area are positioned between the homes, further limiting visibility

We keep blinds and curtains closed and do not look into the guest space

There are no cameras monitoring the backyard or guest areas

ADDITIONAL PRIVACY FEATURES:

A separate 6-foot fence shields the patio from street view

The hot tub is tucked into a private corner nook with its own fencing, shelves, and hooks

Landscaping (bushes and trees) adds additional privacy (slightly less dense in winter)

BOTTOM LINE: The outdoor space is designed to feel private and is yours to fully enjoy. Most guests note they rarely, if ever, see us during their stay, and same goes for us. The only exceptions tend to be if there is necessary maintenance that we were not able to accomplish between check-out and check-in or the guests need us for something.

PERFECT FOR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS & TRAVELING NURSES

Located approximately 2.8 miles (about a 6-minute drive) from Kootenai Health.

Fully furnished with everything needed for extended stays, including a complete kitchen, fresh linens, plush towels, robes, and toiletries. High-speed Wi-Fi supports remote work, while the private hot tub and quiet yard provide the perfect place to unwind after long shifts.

A NOTE ABOUT PETS & WILDLIFE

We maintain a strict no-pet policy to protect guests with allergies and to preserve the comfort of our frequent wildlife visitors, including neighborhood bunnies and deer. Many guests enjoy watching—and safely feeding—the bunnies carrots in the yard.

Unauthorized pets will incur a $250 professional cleaning fee, along with additional charges for any damages. Thank you for your understanding.

IRONMAN LOCATION

Located right on the Centennial Trail—watch athletes run past on Mullan Ave or join the race and enjoy the hot tub afterward.

GUEST ACCESS

Guests have full access to:

The entire cottage (living room, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen)

Private patio, hot tub, and fire pit

Front and backyard areas

Driveway parking and up to 60 feet of curb parking (subject to availability)

Garage and shed are not accessible.

WHY STAY HERE?

Many Coeur d’Alene rentals with hot tubs are either large homes outside downtown or lack privacy. This cottage offers a rare combination of location, privacy, outdoor space, and thoughtful amenities—at a better value than most downtown listings.

YOUR HOSTS

We live next door but prioritize your privacy. You will have full, private use of the cottage, patio, hot tub, and yard. We are available if needed, but otherwise give guests complete space to enjoy their stay.
