Awesome Experience

Check in process was smooth and easy. Any questions we had were answered in a very timely manner, which helped us prepare for arrival. The kitchen was well stocked. The only thing we couldn’t find were measuring spoons, but we may do with using a teaspoon from the drawer. Overall, this was such a fantastic place to bring our family for some amazing lake time!

short but sweet stay

We were only able to stay 3 nights due to our tight schedule visiting family, so we appreciated the owners allowing us to check in early. The cabin was clean, comfortable, well stocked and homey. It was also nice to meet them in person as they were packing up and heading out. We would stay again and next time hopefully longer.

Relaxing lake time

We stayed her with 10 people (4 teens) and had an absolutely amazing time. We have been coming to Priest Lake to camp on the islands for 29 years and this year we decided to get a lake house and then just hang out on Bartoo during the day. It did not disappoint. It was nice to be able to cook dinner and relax for the night at the lake house, but also enjoy the island during the day. The kids (and adults) really enjoyed the foosball and pool table. Would stay here again.

Perfect Lake Week Location

We take an annual lake trip with my brothers family. Our kids are all late teen to young adult who love to be together and love their water sports. This accommodation was great-brought a fishing boat, wake surfing boat, and 12 adult sized people who all fit comfortably. The young adults appreciated having a separate space to play pool and get space from the parents. :) Locations was perfect- hosts were generous and very responsive to any questions we had. 10/10 would come again!

5/5 Stars – A Perfect Getaway on Priest Lake!We just returned from the most incredible stay at this beautiful rental home on Priest Lake, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we had stepped into our own private retreat.The home itself is immaculate—tastefully decorated, cozy, and fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen had all the essentials (and more!), the beds were extremely comfortable, and the living space offered stunning lake views through huge windows. Waking up each morning to the peaceful sound of the water was truly magical.The private dock was the highlight for us. We spent our days boating, swimming, and relaxing by the water. It was the perfect way to unwind and soak in the natural beauty of the lake.The location is perfect: quiet and secluded, yet just a short drive to local stores and restaurants. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you're a million miles from everything, in the best way possible.The owners were also fantastic—friendly, responsive, and thoughtful in every detail. You can tell they truly care about making their guests feel welcome.Whether you're looking for a relaxing family vacation, a romantic retreat, or an outdoor adventure base, this place checks every box. We’re already planning our next trip back!Let me know if you'd like to add or change anything else!Get smarter responses, upload files and images, and more.

Perfect!

The house is very cozy and accommodating, we stayed for a week and nobody wanted to go home. The layout worked great for our group - our teenagers and older kids stayed in a downstairs unit and we loved it was separate from the main house. It was a hot week, but the AC unit did its job pretty well, the house stayed cool. Our teens loved all the games and casino was a blast!!! The stairs were surprisingly easy, even our grandma did not complain. The house is listed as sleeps 13, but there are not enough bath towels for everyone, and no beach towels at all. Also, this house was a first one in 10 years of renting that did not provide any water toys, we brought our own paddle boards. Other than that, the house had everything for a perfect vacation! Highly recommended!

Perfect Getaway

Just what the doctor ordered. The host had excellent communication throughout. We had no issues whatsoever. The property is beautiful and well laid out. The rooms are comfortable and everything is well appointed. Beds are very comfortable. Lots of fans to keep the loft cool at night. The game room was excellent and the kids really liked playing foosball and pool (so did the adults). The real winner was the dock and lake - we swam off the dock every day, about three times a day. The lake is perfect and the boat traffic was minimal. The neighbors were pretty non-existent and when they were around they were awesome. We rented a jet ski from a company that delivered to the Coolin marina - walking distance from the house. This was perfect since the boat ride from marina to dock is about 2 minutes. Everything was easy, laid back and perfect about this house rental. The kitchen had all the things you need and there were double washers and dryers for laundry. What a great stay. Can't thank the hosts enough!

Priest Lake September 2022

Absolutely beautiful views. Lake is amazing. Great places to eat around lake. We caught lots of fish, kayaked, and hiked. Loved our stay. Definitely a good time of year to stay, really peaceful, pretty quiet- only thing that was a little inconvenient was no access to downstairs inside house. You have to go outside to access downstairs. Otherwise we loved the house.
