Other Things to Note: Barrel retreat is located in a beautiful original craftsman home downtown Sandpoint.

Awesome getaway
What a great place! Nicely renovated old home with beautiful touches. Loved the welcome packet, coffee & pretzels, and the furniture was really comfortable as well as the bed. Soaking in the spa was a highlight, and drying off with the provided towels felt extra luxurious. Easy to get in and out of the place, and the location was perfect for walking downtown.

Great place and location
We loved our stay. Very clean and well appointed! Very close to downtown Sandpoint. Comfortable bed and we loved the sauna and hot tub. We would have preferred to have a few more blinds/curtains in some of the windows. It is easy to see in, especially from the pizza restaurant next door. The bathroom is not right off of the main bedroom, so you do have to walk by that window to get there.

Perfect Weekend Schweitzer Trip
Stayed with my gf for a trip to schweitzer. The house was perfect for two, cozy, clean, and private with businesses on each side (the pizza place next door is great too). 25 minutes from the mountain, the sauna and hot tub were great for recovery after long days snowboarding. Will definitely be back soon

The Mountain Town Getaway We Dreamed Of!
From start to finish, this house was absolutely perfect! It was spotless and clean. The backyard with the hot tub and sauna were dreamy, even in the winter! The hosts did not spare a single detail when it came to the design, decor, and the guides they prepared for their guests to reference for things to do, places to eat, etc. It was by far the best VRBO experience we have ever had. Thank you so much!
