Amazing Get Away

Very comfortable cabin. Beautiful place to relax and catch up with family who lives nearby. Loved the grill, fire pit, deck...everything! Erin and Thomas were very accommodating, and we were able to add an extra day to our stay. It was also wonderful to have our sweet doggo enjoy a vacation with us.

Great little place

We had a great stay... very comfortable retreat for us. Only wish the rain would have stayed away so we could have enjoyed the deck more.

Really beautiful and the owners were amazing.

The cabin was even nicer than the pictures and our hosts responded to us quickly. We are already planning another trip to this beautiful cabin!

Wonderful week with family

This was a perfect location for our family and dogs! Tucked in the woods with a beautiful view of the lake, we enjoyed being there and will go back!

Our stay was very relaxing. As I noted with our survey above the hosts were exceptional at communicating and their property was perfect for our family.

Winter Getaway

Great little cabin that met all of our needs. Loved staying here for the week. Having Schweitzer to ski 25 miutes away, the town to hang out in, and being able to drive to Coeur d'Alene for one day.

Nice, clean property!

Beautiful setting. Plenty of amenities provide by hosts. Fabulous outside decks and fire pit. Not much of a view of lake but at least a peekaboo. Would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful experience

I stayed here with my two young children and mother and we had a terrific time. The house was well stocked with anything you could need. The deck was amazing to watch the beautiful sunsets and to enjoy meals on. We would definitely come again!

WOW what aa deck!

Loved spending the morning and evenings on the multi level deck/patio. The kitchen is beautiful. The location of Murphey's Retreat is convenient to Sandpoint too!

Outdoors

Nice updated kitchen, super comfy beds, a highlight is tons of great outdoor space & seating to enjoy. Great location to hit Sandpoint & all the lake has to offer. Owners a breeze to deal with.

Great getaway but verify lake access

The property itself was just beautiful and very well appointed. Everything we needed was there. The problem was it didn’t have direct access to the lake, which was supposed to be offset by being able to take the kayaks up the road to the public lake access. Maybe the owners didn’t know but that lake access is closed for the entire 2025 season. That was the only downside. It’s a beautiful place and for the place and the surroundings itself. I would absolutely recommend it. We had a great time together!

Beautiful setting in the trees with lake and mountain views

Super clean cabin and very comfortable beds. Well equipped with anything you could think of. Property is very convenient to Sandpoint and points north or south. It is very quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed great views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Our dog was very happy exploring around the cabin. Plenty of room to stretch your legs.

Great place! Comfy stay with TONS to do!

Neat spot! Close to Sandpoint with a great relaxing outdoor patio and deck. The owners, Erin and Thomas were very attentive for any questions that came up. And, when I say tons to do I mean a shed full of things you can use like bikes, corn hole, tennis racquets, kayaks, soccer ball, just to name a few. The beds were SO comfortable...we all slept great! Two nights was definitely not enough to fully enjoy everything, but a great stay nonetheless.

Great little property, super location.

We absolutely loved this property, it was very well stocked with everything you need. Great value for all this property offers. You can tell the hosts are welcoming and really care about your stay. Very clean and comfortable - the kitchen and main living space was perfect size for our group of 3. If there was one area for improvement it is that we were not fans of the queen bunk beds - it felt claustrophobic since one side was pushed up against the wall, and very limited head room - but the mattresses were very comfortable. Amazing outdoor spaces - decks and patio. Overall the property was one of the best we've ever stayed at - highly recommend.

Perfect Cozy Cabin

Erin and Thomas, your property was incredible and the perfect spot for me and my family to spend time this December. The location was ideally located, taking us only 5 minutes to get downtown and only 25 to get to the ski hill. The amenities at the property were as described and we loved the cozy vibe. Our pet Lucy sure loved being able to stay at the property as well! Both of you were incredibly responsive and assisted us with all of our questions. Thank you for such an amazing experiencing with VRBO!

We enjoyed our stay in Sandpoint

We loved the outdoor area, great chairs and wood pile. My daughter especially liked landscaping and all the stuff you left for guests to enjoy. Beds were comfortable. House could use updating and carpets cleaning, but all was ready for us when we arrived so we appreciated that. Some of the condiments on the fridge were outdated and the freezer was full. We would recommend this unit. Thanks enjoyed our stay

Cozy, convenient get-away

This was one of the few decently priced rentals I've found that allow dogs, and we were very pleased. We took our pups and our kiddo, and we were able to enjoy a fire on the patio while the dogs played. The only thing we had to watch for was the dogs staying close, as the house is just off of a kind of busy road. 5 minutes from town, 5 minutes from public beach access, and very accommodating place. We wished we could have stayed longer! Oh, and the beds were extremely comfortable. :)

Quaint hide away

This property might not be waterfront but has so much to offer. It’s a quiet little hide away with a spectacular multi level patio, and open fire pit. Bathroom needs a major overhaul but is clean and functional. One bedroom is extremely warm (but we were there when temp was 30c). Kitchen and main living area has been upgraded beautifully.

Great little place on the lake

We so enjoyed our Christmas vacation at Murphy's Retreat on Lake Pend Orielle. Since it was winter, we didn't venture onto the lake but had wonderful views. It was an easy drive to Schweitzer, and into the fabulous town of Sandpoint. This would definitely be a wonderful summer spot, too. Everything was just as described. My only suggestion would be to someday replace the carpet with something easier to keep clean. Thanks for everything!
