Barn Owl Cabin - Lakefront Home with a Private Dock
This amazing home is located right on the lake. You couldn't be closer to the water. There is ample space for your friends and family to comfortably enjoy all that Lake Coeur d'Alene has to offer. There is a private gas grill on the deck, so you can have al-fresco meals with a 180-degree panoramic lake view. At the end of your day, relax in the private hot tub and gaze up at the night sky.
As is somewhat typical on Couer d’Alene lake there are stairs (100 newly built grippy steel stairs) that lead from the parking area to the cabin which is waterfront. Going forward you will need to use the described stairs to unload and load. The unloading road mentioned in a few reviews will no longer be available starting spring 2023.

The Barn Owl cabin was the perfect setting for a completely relaxing family vacation. We enjoyed the sunny deck and swimming in the warm water lake, canoeing
Our family stayed at the lake for a week and we had a wonderful time. The property was exactly what as advertised. Right on the lake! We would definitely go back!
This is a Great Lake property. Right on the lake with and excellent dock. Plenty of room for six adults. Very well stocked with supplies. Hot tub was a great bonus. Loved out time there!
Very nice stay and well stocked house. Communication with owner/vrbo was incredible. Loved the board games, cornhole, canoe, hot tub, and view. Will definitely return.
We had such a wonderful time with our kids making memories. This property offered stunning views right on the lake. The hot tub was great as well. Lots of laughs & memories made here.
This cabin was perfect for our five year nursing school reunion. It’s tucked away in the woods which was the environment we were looking to stay in, but also a quick drive away from downtown CDA. We rented a pontoon boat from CDA pontoons which was a fantastic way to spend our Saturday, and this cabin’s dock worked perfectly for the boat. They had temperature control in every room and the bathrooms were centrally located to all of the bedrooms, which was super convenient. It has plenty of deck and dock space to lay out and enjoy your trip. Everything was clean and comfortable, including the hot tub. Finally, they had great water toys. Highly recommend, we will be back!!!

The location is great. We can dock our boat and have easy access to the lake. The kitchen has a lot of cookware and good set of dishes to use, very convenient. We like the DVD collections. We love all the water toys provided including floating toys and kayak. The kids loved the hot tub,have great time in the cabin.
What an amazingly beautiful location! The house was perfect for 5 adults. Loved all the outdoor seating and access to the water.
The stairs were a challenge, as there are many, but it just forced us to have all we need so we could take advantage of the property, which none of us complained about.
Thank you for opening up your home! We all want to come back again:-)
Cozy cabin has a nice deck to sit outside and enjoy the water views! We had cool, rainy weather, but the firepit and wood burning stove were fantastic. No wi-fi or hair dryer, but that is certainly not a deal breaker. Having a boat dock was great. The steps to get to the cabin are no joke, pack light! So glad the steps were wrapped in string lights since we arrived at night. Great stay!
Enjoyed the holiday weekend at this great cabin. Location was great. Dock was perfect to try boat up to and to even fish off of. BBQ made dinner for easy to prep. 3 couples. Plenty of room. Comfortable. New stairs are very nice and not bad. We used our host to bring most of our stuff and just had a short load off and easier unloading. If you have a boat we would totally suggest this method. We would stay here again
We had a great time. The house was clean and looked just like the photos. It was great to be right on the lake with the dock. Canoe, and kayak. The parking was a little confusing, but we were the only car so it wasn’t a problem. I would have like some darker curtains in the rooms with the queen beds. The sun rose before 5:00 and by 5:30 we were up because it was so bright.
This was the perfect lake cabin for our family vacation! Check in was easy! Property manager allowed us to check in early and check out late! The whole house including kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked! Plenty of space for 5 adults and 2 teenagers. The dock was only a few steps away and it was brand new and nice! Extra chairs to sit on the dock and tons of floaties. The hot tub was nice in the evening and one day when it rained on us. Perfect patio for the adults to watch kiddos swimming and sitting out in the morning and nights. The BQQ had a full tank of propane and an extra tank! Property manager was responsive, answered calls/texts when we first arrived and got a bit lost. Close to downtown CDA and less than an 20min boat ride to the resort! Perfect location of boating, tubing and getting out of the “hub” of the lake. Overall, was a fun week and would definitely come back again!!

Pros & Cons
Pros:
-Owners were kind, responsive and reasonable
-Yard, dock and lakefront are beautiful
-Resort is about a 10 minute boat ride
-Very nice deck overlooking lake
-house was clean
Cons:
-30 minute drive to store. There are no restaurants or shops in the area
-the stairs to get down to the house are horrendous. That was the worst part of the whole trip. It honestly had a big impact on our vacation because it was so awful going up and down.
-the cabin looks bigger in the pictures. It’s pretty “cozy”
-there were mouse droppings in the house but we were warned about that. We didn’t leave the door open but I’m sure it’s easy for them to get in
-parking is terrible and good luck trying to get an Uber. This created a logistical challenge when family would come visit. They had to park at a Marina about 15 minutes away and we had to shuttle them over.
-the neighbors are close (one on each side).
-beds aren’t very comfortable
My advice is to not stay here unless you have a boat. That way you can avoid the stairs if you want to go somewhere.
We loved everything about it! The Cottage was clean and inviting. We loved the hot tub the most, the beds were comfortable. Very peaceful and relaxing. It was only 15 minutes from Bristol Motor Dragway. We were able to meet Lena and she was very nice and hospitable.

The deck was perfect! We rented a boat and took the kids tubing! KC boat rentals. It was hard to find in the dark. Arrived at 2:30am after a full day at Glacier national park! I do not recommend if you
We absolutely loved our stay at the owl barn cabin. The home was clean and lovely and had everything we needed. The setting was ideal and we super appreciated that the hot tub had freshwater put in it right before we arrived— we are hot tub, snobs, and the freshwater made it usable. Dock was perfect. Lots of time spent out there playing swimming and boating.
Great cabin with most all amenities needed on Lake Coeur d'Alene in Harrison ID. It's a little out of the way but that was also a positive. Perfect for family retreat right on the lake!
