This stunning lookout tower, inspired by National Park architecture, sits atop a granite cliff over 60 feet high, offering unparalleled views of the Cabinet Mountains, Sandpoint, and Lake Pend Oreille. Tucked away off the main cutoff to Schweitzer Mountain, this awe-inspiring structure is a must-see for anyone seeking a one-of-a-kind experience. The Space: This cozy space provides remote relaxation while still providing all the amenities your heart may desire. The Lookout Tower is 2 stories so guests must be able to use a spiral staircase or exterior wood stairs. The Main living and dining area is located upstairs while the bedroom, bathroom and laundry facilities are located downstairs. The walkthrough below is as if you’re entering through the front door and exiting through the second floor sliding glass door. Downstairs Level 1 Entry: Upon entering, you will find a sitting area, spiral staircase leading to the second floor, bathroom, and bedroom door. Bathroom: Full bathroom with glass door walk in shower, single sink vanity and toilet. All bathroom amenities and towels are provided during your stay. In the colder months, the bathroom Is heated with a wall heater controlled by a thermostat. Bedroom: The bedroom offers a queen-size bed, comfy bedding, Smart TV, side tables with lights, closet, and laundry facilities. In the colder months, the room Is heated with a portable heater. Laundry Facilities: The laundry facilities are located in 1 of the 2 bedroom closets. There is a stackable washing machine and dryer, shoe rack, extra linens, 2 robes, iron, and vacuum. Laundry detergent and dryer balls are provided. Spiral Staircase: Due to the intimate size of the Lookout Tower, the spiral staircase is steep so please take your time when going upstairs or downstairs. The upper level can also be accessed from the exterior wood stairs. Hot Tub: Soak up the views in the 3-person hot tub located on the first-floor deck. Upstairs Level 2 Living Area: The living area has a large couch, coffee table, board games, puzzles, Smart TV, Bluetooth speaker, wood-burning stove (wood and starters included) and wall heater. Kitchen: T full-size kitchen is complete with a mid-size fridge, oven with range, farmhouse sink, microwave, and coffee maker. Also included are dishes, utensils, pots, pans, and kitchen amenities. Deck: Walk out the sliding glass doors and enjoy the views and fire up the wood pellet grill. Outdoors: Firepit: Wood is provide for the firepit along with Adirondack chains to ensure an enjoyable experience! Additional Information: Did we mention adventure? Due to the steep driveway, you will need a 4x4 or AWD in order to reach the lookout tower. You may park at the lower driveway and hike up to the home (2 minute walk) if it looks too daunting - This may also be required in the winter months depending on the snow conditions. We promise it is all worth it once you take in the views! Especially sitting in the two-person hot tub that overlooks the valley. The city of Sandpoint is known for trains, so you'll hear the train whistle from the valley below. You'll be surprised how quickly you become accustomed to the sound but if you're not used to it you can use the "white noise" player or earplugs in the bedroom to muffle the train whistles at night. Unfortunately, this property was not designed for children. There is a tight spiral staircase inside the home and not a lot of room to play. We do allow pets. However, there will be an additional $75 pet fee and pets must be under the owner’s control at all times, due to other animals in the area. Due to the steep cliffs surrounding the home, bringing pets will be at the owner’s risk. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Music library - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - On a lake - On a river ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 440 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/68000000/67640000/67635700/67635699/736974cc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Dog-friendly mountain castle with a washer/dryer, private hot tub, & fireplace Sandpoint - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 67 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-17&endDate=2025-10-18&selected=67635699&PinnedHotelID=67635699&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/89000000/88620000/88612900/88612881/0d7bb9fa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Woodland Hideaway • Cozy Cabin in the Woods, Peaceful, Charming & Pet-Friendly Sandpoint - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 37 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-17&endDate=2025-10-18&selected=88612881&PinnedHotelID=88612881&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34330000/34329500/34329472/12c3ab56.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lakefront Property/Water slide/Dock Access/Hot Tub/Grill/10 mins to Sandpoint!
