A Great Escape
What a great little escape. My husband and I snuck away from the kids and this was just what we needed. A quiet relaxing little place. I appreciate them allowing for a very impromptu early check in. House is very tastefully decorated. Everything was in great shape and clean. Thank you for letting us enjoy your place!

Perfect for 2! Great escape for a romantic or connecting time away from the hustle and bustle. If you can, bring your water toys (SUPs, floaties, etc) as there is water everywhere! Thimbleberries were also on almost all of the trails, and wife ate herself sick ;)Property had everything we needed and a little more. Hosts were great at responding and even provided recommendations for the area.Thanks again!

Cozy but modern with insane views
My partner and our dog stayed in this cozy little lookout. The property was surprisingly big and remote, driving up to the unit was such a surreal experience, the living space was very cozy, the kitchen had very modern appliances, the bathroom was very nice and the shower was pretty insane, the deck that surrounded the exterior overlooked the incredibly beautiful views of the mountains off in the distance which provided us an amazing sunrise, and the hot tub was very warm. We'll defiantly make our way back to this property in the future.

Unique & Comfortable for our ski adventure
My wife and I stayed here for a ski trip to Schweitzer. The lookout tower was a unique experience that we truly enjoyed. The tower is just big enough to have everything the 2 of us needed, and is very cozy.Close enough to Sandpoint for groceries / dinner. Only 20 minutes from Schweitzer, and even We had a full size AWD car rental, and I would not want to have anything less. The driveway to the tower is steep, but well maintained. The roads in the neighborhood and to Schweitzer are also well maintained, but winter mountain conditions exist.

Weekend Get Away
My husband and I stayed at Lookout Tower for the weekend. We loved the area. The road up had some tight turns but nothing we couldn't manage. We noticed the train noises while watching TV but they didn't wake us up at night. It was a very pleasant stay.

Perfect getaway
We had such a great stay in at the lookout tower. You can tell the owners/management really care about making your stay perfect. I was a little nervous when I booked the lookout tower because my husband and I are both tall (5’9 and 6’6). The unit is small but very space effective so it doesn’t feel cramped. This really is a great property and was perfect for our quick getaway to sandpoint!

Wonderful place to unwind
We just needed a place to get away and unwind, and this was perfect! The views were amazing, the hot tub on the deck was awesome, and it was stocked with everything we needed to be comfortable and relax. We would definitely recommend it for anyone who wants to explore Sandpoint/Schweitzer, but also just as a place to get away the hustle and bustle of life.

Such a gem!
This properly is truly such a gem! I love staying in unique places, but it is rare to find somewhere that merges unique characteristics with high quality design, finishes and appliances - but this place is just that! It is close to Schweitzer, Sandpoint and anywhere you want to go if you want to get out and explore, but also incredibly cozy if you want to relax and stay in to soak up the stunning views. The hot tub was the cherry on top. Thank you for a wonderful getaway!

Cozy cabin
Everything as advertised at the Lookout Tower. It was a very comfortable and cozy little cabin. The hot tub is perfect for two adults — I wouldn’t go for three or it would be a snug fit. We thought the bed was extremely comfortable.
Water pressure was a little low but it gets the job done for showers!
Everything was very clean and the WiFi was good for us. Nice mini appliances too and gas range. Definitely a nicer cabin kitchen!
The wood stove/fireplace was a nice touch we used too.
