Our stay was for our son's graduation from WSU. It was about a 50 minute drive, but well worth it. We had lots of room and a beautiful setting. If our daughter goes to WSU, we will definitely come again.

Nice

We enjoyed our stay, I was a bit surprised that the house was an older mobile home. The property was awesome! Once we got in and settled, we discovered that the hot water in the master didn’t work very well, the two blue rocking chairs in the living room had a bad order and with 6 people we could have used some more toilet paper. One roll for each bathroom was not enough. Even with these small issues we still enjoyed our stay. Thank you Jeff

Stayed for two nights with 2 adult children. House was clean and comfortable. Cellular reception in the area seems to vary from hilltop to hilltop, so plan accordingly.

We came for my son's graduation weekend from U of I. Although it was a bit of a ways out, it was a perfect oasis to relax. My grand daughter's were delighted to find a Hello Kitty bedspread on their bunk bed!! We loved it here and will most definitely be back!! Beds were so comfy!! Thank you for this peaceful place!! What fun watching the projector movies and bon fire under the star filled sky. Just what we needed!! Made mother's day one to remember!! Hosts were excellent with response time on any questions.

Rural Palouse Bliss

We came to my alma mater, University of Idaho, for a tour for my daughter, a senior in high school, and to watch the Vandals beat Montana State! I loved my 7 years living in the Palouse and miss the place very much. Parents weekend had made in-town accommodations too expensive, and this retreat was priced just right, albeit a bit of a drive. The location, however, is dynamite. The accommodations are rustic and a bit spartan, but clean. I went for a hike on the property in the mornings and the scenery and landscape is incredible. All-in-all, we loved it. We also beat the breakfast crowd in Moscow by having a wonderful breakfast in Potlatch on our way into the game.

Rustic/quiet…with issues

We enjoyed the home and new it would be rustic but the mouse poop in the bathroom ( I cleaned up every morning) was not acceptable also we could not get hot water out of the larger bathroom sink. We also smelled propane at the back door on 2 separate occasions.

Tranquil Stay

Very accurate listing description. Enjoyed the quiet property and our kids loved seeing the wildlife (deer, porcupine, garter snake and many birds). Very easy to follow rules. Didn’t mind the lack of TV and Wi-Fi. Watching DVDs on the projector was a hit for the kids. We’d book again.

Beautiful area!

It was a perfect place to come back to after the family event's. Nice and quiet and all the amenities anyone could ever need. Would definitely stay again. Im new to the house renting thing but was only disappointed in the non refundable damage fee. Had to drop 1500 if you wanted it refunded which seems a little over kill in my opinion.

Absolutely wonderful vacation getaway!!

This place is absolutely beautiful! It’s cozy, it’s homey and it’s everything I expected it to be and so much more! The beds were amazing, I slept like a baby every single night. Everything you would need for cooking and cleaning and everything in between. I was a little surprised that a friend had service up there, even in the house. If you’re looking for an amazing “glamping” vacation, THIS IS IT! We will be back! Spectacular!!!
