Great stay!

We had so much fun and relaxation at this beautiful lake property. Amenities and location were amazing. The only reason we did not give a full 5 star rating is that some of the lightbulbs in the main room were out, some cobwebs throughout the home, and a faulty handle on the main floor toilet. The screen doors do not lock on the wrap around porch, but not sure if that was meant to be that way. Other than those small things, we really enjoyed our stay.

Hate to let the secret out but this place is AWESOME.

We rented the Braff's house to reunite with our neighbors who moved away a few years back. I'll start by saying the location is fantastic. literally no more than half an hour to anything you might want do. Silverwood 20mins, Lake Coeur d'Alene - 20 mins, tons of restaurants, etc... That said, the setting of the house feels like it's miles from anything. The boat slip and convenient but rarely used boat ramp less than a mile away is so great. The location of the house in relation to the main part of the lake is great as well as the house sits in a small cove area of the lake and isn't racked with boat noise and waves all day every day. The house itself is very lovely. Comfortable and new with great touches of home. The fire pit and screen porch were our mainstays during our trip and they do not disappoint. The screen porch was so amazing as the screens not only kept the bugs out but also helped to keep the wind at bay when we had a storm roll through while we stayed there. We ate dinner every night on the porch and watched bald eagles and osprey fish. The kitchen is amazingly well stocked (best we've seen in a VRBO) and was really very comfortable with an amazing view of the lake. The owners were so great to deal with and responded to questions within minutes on the few occasions where we needed help. They left our two families a fantastic basket of smore fixins with everything we needed for a great night at the fire pit. They also did an amazing job of trying to stock the house with everything you might need at a lake house, about a dozen life jackets in various sizes including kids, some basic fishing gear, SUPs, nice kayaks, a hatchet for splitting wood, etc. If I was to offer one single negative critique, the water pressure was a source of frustration throughout our stay. We mentioned this to the owner after our stay and learned that due to the extreme hard water in the area, it requires that the water filters be changed almost weekly. The water tasted fine and we had no negative issues other than at times showering was frustrating toward the end of our 10 day stay. 5 out of 5 stars and hopefully we can get another trip planned for this house before it fills up permanently.

Absolutely beautiful

This Hayden Lake home is located in a beautiful, serene setting. The house is beautifully appointed with quality furnishings, lovely decor, impeccable cleanliness and every amenity valued guests appreciate — like quality towels and bedding, a well-stocked kitchen and firewood ready for cozy fireplace fires in the mornings and evenings. Our family felt at home the instant we entered this elegant, rustic and cozy lake home. We thoroughly enjoyed our 4-day stay and appreciated the kind and quick responses to all our information requests from our gracious hosts Colleen and Jon.

Looking to Move To Hayden

Loved the view and the screened in porch. Owners seem to appreciate their guests rather than leaving a list of things not to do as many owners do. We love Hayden Lake and Northern Idaho.

Loved our time at the Life of Reilly! So relaxing and serene. The porch was our favorite spot. So great to have all of the “toys” (kayak, fishing poles, SUP, games, etc) there for our use. Thank you!

Amazingly well appointed Vrbo

The place is just as great as it looks online. We thought we would be spending time at one of the two fire pits in the evenings for sure but we just couldn’t take ourselves away from the most cozy porch there ever was. We will be staying again. Thanks for having us!

Absolutely Perfect!

We had a quick 2 night stay here while in the area to visit Silverwood with our 3 teens. They almost didn't want to leave the house to visit the amusement park. The beauty of the view and amenities made this an amazing trip for us and we will defiintely be back. Thanks Colleen for making this a great trip for our family!

Awesome Week at the Lake

Our family of 6 (4 adults, 2 toddlers) just returned from a 9 night stay at Life of Riley and completely enjoyed our stay. The cabin is well stocked with just about anything you could ever need to relax and unwind. We used the private covered dock every day to swim, kayak, and paddle board. Our granddaughters loved the water and it was a short walk down the stairs each day to get there. Lots of time spent around the fire pit unplugged and talking about everything and anything. Nightly board games (provided) were super fun. Family dinners on the porch.....the porch was our very favorite thing. We would love to return.

Relaxation by the Lake

This house is well appointed and the hosts communicative, thoughtful and gracious. Everything needed to enjoy the lake including towels, canoe, paddle boards, kayaks, and fishing rods (among others) is provided. The house and kitchen are similarly well equipped, and everything works. There are many places to hang out inside and out, all of them comfortable and attractive. There are many options for nearby (short drive) groceries. The house and setting will help you relax, even if you may not be initially disposed to do so. Hosts are very attentive and conscientious. Quick poll confirmed each of our party of five would happily stay there again.

Gorgeous view cabin

The best part of this cozy cabin is the view. The outdoor screened in porch is fabulous. We spent all our time on the porch. There were a few details with appliances-slow leak in the fridge and a problem with the washer/dryer but the owner is super responsive. Loved our time there.

Beautiful Property Inside and Out

We loved relaxing here on my wedding weekend. It was so beautiful with plenty of outdoor spaces to enjoy the beautiful weather. It was comfortable and well stocked for 5 of us to cook and hang out. I loved all their little touches, like s’mores and branded mugs. We are already talking about booking a return stay.

Fantastic Cabin

Arriving to a very cold cabin coupled with electrical issues trying to heat the cabin was not what we had intended to start our trip. I feel the cabin doesn’t get much use in the winter time. It would be good to have heater already on the day before. But great communication with the host, a working fireplace, plenty of wood/kindling and amazing views made up for the bad beginning. The cabin is exactly as described and pictured on the website. I think this place would be a blast in the summertime. Such a beautiful property. Close to downtown CDA and lots of hiking trails. We will be back.

Family reunion at Life of Reilly

Our extended family had a blast while staying at the Life of Reilly cabin for a mini-reunion. Everything we needed for a fun ten-days on the lake was there for us. The whole experience was reminiscent of summer stays at a family cabin in Michigan; it was great to make new memories in Idaho! The kitchen was very well-equipped and we also got a lot use out of the on-site washer and dryer. The views from the screened porch were wonderful (we even saw a few eagles soaring over the lake!) and we had all of our family meals there. It was great to have a dock available to make our rented pontoon boat accessible throughout our stay. The kids (and adults!) were well-entertained with the available toys, floats, pool table, and family games. There was no cell service, but the Wi-Fi service allowed us to stay connected. Colleen was a great host; she was so quick to respond to any questions or requests and the cabin itself was extremely functional and comfortable. We hope to be back!

A little piece of paradise!

We spent a week here with our children and grandchildren and everyone loved it! The house is both cozy and expansive. Everything is modern and the decor is perfect for a lake house. The owners have provided everything you could need and more. The views are beautiful and tranquil, but the jewel is the sun porch. I think we spent most of our time out there when we weren't out on the water. We drank our morning coffee, ate meals, played games, took naps and just enjoyed the sounds of the water lapping, the birds, the wind in the pines, the view - it was nirvana! Even our 8-yr-old grandson said he loved sitting out there listening to the water. The owners go above and beyond. Colleen communicated frequently, checking to make sure we had everything we needed and offering to help us in any way we might need. Even when I had an unexpected trip to the ER her concern was unbelievably genuine and kind. So, in short, we loved Life of Reilly and will definitely return! Thank you so much for providing the perfect vacation retreat!
