About this chalet rental

Welcome to Sandpoint Chalet — your cozy mountain getaway nestled in the beautiful Northern Idaho mountains. We hope this home feels like your own peaceful retreat, whether you’re here for outdoor adventures, family time, or simply a chance to slow down and enjoy the beauty and charm of Sandpoint.

The chalet is conveniently located just a 15–20 minute drive from Schweitzer Mountain ski lifts, offering easy access to some of the Northwest’s best skiing, snowboarding, hiking, and mountain biking. Silverwood Theme Park is also only about a 30-minute scenic drive away, making it a fun destination for families and guests of all ages.

After a day of exploring, relax in our spacious 6-person saltwater hot tub while enjoying the fresh mountain air and beautiful Idaho skies. Inside, the home offers plenty of space to gather, including a large basement game room with arcade games, air hockey, ping pong, foosball, darts, and other entertainment for kids and adults alike.

The chalet comfortably sleeps up to 9 guests with flexible sleeping arrangements. The upstairs and downstairs bathrooms have recently been renovated with modern updates to provide extra comfort during your stay.

The basement includes a laundry area with complimentary laundry soap and fabric softener, a small workout space with dumbbells and a foam roller, and a dedicated workspace with a desk and chair for guests who need a quiet place to work. The entire home, including the basement, is yours to enjoy.

For additional sleeping space, the basement includes a futon with a mattress topper for added comfort. An air mattress is also available as an alternative option.

Sandpoint is a special place surrounded by three mountain ranges and the beautiful Lake Pend Oreille, Idaho’s largest lake. Guests can enjoy hiking, biking, fishing, kayaking, boating, swimming, wildlife viewing, and many other outdoor adventures. During winter, Schweitzer becomes a true mountain playground with skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and scenic chairlift rides.

Downtown Sandpoint offers wonderful local restaurants, shops, galleries, live music, theater, and charming cafes. Be sure to visit places like the historic Panida Theater, Cedar Street Bridge Public Market, and local favorites throughout town. Sandpoint also hosts many seasonal festivals celebrating music, food, art, and the outdoors.

Please note that trains do pass near the chalet, with occasional horns during both daytime and nighttime hours. This is part of Sandpoint’s historic railroad community and something we want our guests to be aware of before booking.

Our mountain home currently has one portable AC unit, and we are adding a second unit to provide additional comfort. During periods of unusually hot weather, bedrooms may still feel warmer, especially in the afternoon when temperatures are at their highest.

The home also features a cozy electric/gas fireplace (not wood-burning) that creates a warm and relaxing atmosphere during your stay.

We feel very fortunate to care for this special home and continue the love and hospitality that Joey shared with guests before us. Our goal is simple: to provide a clean, comfortable, welcoming place where families and friends can relax, reconnect, and create wonderful memories together.

We can’t wait to welcome you to Sandpoint Chalet and hope you enjoy everything this beautiful area has to offer.

Kindly,
Tian & Tyrone

Kitchen was fully equipped. The extra amenities were nice, like the Jacuzzi, the games in the basement, washer dryer. Location was perfect for access to ski resort. Only feedback would be to have thermostat set higher during winter months for guest arrival. It took a long time to heat the place up, but once heated, it was great

Host was very welcoming, left us a welcome card and basket with snacks. House was very well stocked with everything we needed. Short drive to Schweitzer mountain, hot tub was a plus after long ski day, was nice and clean as well. Would recommend and stay again.

Perfect, cozy and clean cabin for our family of 9. Beds in master and second bedroom were very comfortable. Pull-out sofa and futon were fine for the kids. The kids squealed with delight upon seeing the game room for the first time and spent most of the time either there or playing many of the board games provided. Hot tub was a hit, too. Host was very prompt with communication. We hope to return again!
