A unique couples retreat nestled at the base of Rathdrum Mountain. Outdoor Sauna

The hosts were friendly and welcoming and stocked the place with everything you could possibly think of. The house itself was quaint and cozy. It was the best bnb experience I have had.

This was our second visit to Rathdrum Mountain guest house. It was just as wonderful the second time as it was the first time. Clean, organized, peaceful, and just perfect for us and our dog. The next time we’re in the neighborhood we will certainly stay there again. Thank you, Susan & Thomas.

This place was so perfect!! Such a beautiful and peaceful setting- a perfect babymoon! The rooms and furniture were SO cozy, the sauna - YAY! Even a special dog house!! Susan was a wonderful host- she took time to personalize our stay. We will be back!!! THANK YOU!

We had such a wonderful and relaxing weekend getaway! The property was beautiful, peaceful, and exactly what we needed to unwind. The sauna was amazing, such a perfect touch after a long day of exploring and relaxing. The host was incredibly kind and accommodating, making everything smooth and easy from start to finish. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a cozy, rejuvenating escape!

Lovely! Our stay at RMGH exceeded our expectations in every way. We were greeted by our host who gave us a thorough walk-through of the property and left us with a lovely charcuterie welcome spread. The kitchen was fully stocked and filled with everything to cook gourmet meals. We planned to eat dinners in because we brought our two dogs who were treated to toys and a large puppy palace in the yard. The property is very private so having coffee in our spa robes on the porch was a treat. I cannot recommend RMGH enough and will happily return on our next trip to the area.

It was an ama ing forst time using VRBO and we will definitely use it agaiin. The place was beyonf expectations

Susan is one of the best hosts we have ever had. Everything was provided from charcuterie board on arrival, snacks and amazing spa products. We were spoiled. We will stay longer when we come back.

From the moment we arrived at Rathdrum Mountain Guest House, we knew we had found something truly special. Nestled at the base of the mountain, this retreat is a peaceful sanctuary where every detail has been thoughtfully curated.Our host, Susan, was extremely welcoming. Communication was exactly what you hope for — timely, clear, and friendly — making our stay effortless from start to finish. She made us feel so comfortable that we didn’t want to leave!The blend of cozy charm and luxury is unmatched. The master bedroom’s Saatva luxury-firm mattress gave us the best night’s sleep we’ve had in ages, and the triple-sheeted 100% cotton linens with European goose-down pillows made it feel like a five-star hotel in the middle of nature.It’s the small details that truly set this place apart — a stocked fridge and pantry, plush robes and slippers, spa-quality bath products, and even thoughtful touches for our dog. The Finnleo outdoor sauna was the perfect way to unwind in the evenings, and the private nature trails made our mornings magical.We’ve stayed in many vacation rentals, but this was hands-down the best VRBO experience we’ve ever had. We highly recommend it and can’t wait to return!

Amazing! We've stayed a fancier places, but they don't compare to the complete package this cottage has to offer. This place is begging you to stay, relax, and truly enjoy the comforts of the cottage and the outdoor amenities. I wish we could have stayed longer to truly enjoy it. Susan lives nearby so she was able to greet us, give us a tour of what the cottage offers, and bless us with a delicious charcuterie board. The pantry and fridge were also stocked for our enjoyment- eggs, milk, mini ice creams, fruit, etc. The kitchen may be smaller, but it is the best stocked kitchen I've seen when it comes to cooking and baking. Pop a record onto the record player and listen to some great music while you cook, or choose to sit and relax while enjoying the beautifully decorated cottage and surrounding outdoors. Outside in the backyard you will find a hammock that makes a great place to enjoy a good book. You will also find several trails to explore right out the backdoor.This is a place we will definitely come back to and enjoy in the future.

This is the first time I used this site, so I was a little bit nervous at first.. Susan very quickly calmed those fears and nervousness. From the start, her communication was absolutely on point. When we pulled up to the location, she was there waiting at the door for us. She had fresh slippers and a charcuterie board wating for us. She took the time to take us on a tour of the house, talked about the history of the property and the amenties offered with the house. It is very apparent that this couple takes so much pride in offering the absolute best accomodations for their guests. There is a lovely sauna, with full instructions and hiking trails through out the property. There are also several different relaxing seating areas on the property as well. There are two bedrooms to choose from. Both are exquisitely detailed, including different pillow types, and just so, so luxurious. The bath amenties are absolutely top notch. She also has gone out of her way to stock the fridge and pantry, offering anything you might need for your stay. every single detail and added touch with this property is absolutely un-matched. This was above and beyond my favorite vacation stay, that I have experienced. We will be coming back.

The online property description & pictures were accurate. It really is as good as it looks. We were comfortable from the moment we arrived. It hit 100 degrees that day and Susan had the A/C on for us already. That thoughtful touch is emblematic of how Susan runs her VRBO. Everything exceeded expectations from the stocked frig, toiletries, and pet supplies. What isn't mentioned enough is the property itself and the hiking trails. If you stay, don't miss them. They give a great workout and the view from the top is worth it. Thank you Susan & Tom for making this one of our very best vacations.

Such a great place! Susan stocked the place with drinks, a charcuterie board (even made it gluten free for us,) organic dairy in the fridge and soup! The towels were amazing and the kitchen has everything you need. The sauna and trails were a nice bonus. The property is well taken care of and clean. Susan thought of everything. Lovely place and we’ll happily stay here again!

We have staying in quite a few VRBO's, but none like this! CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN!! Our host is amazing and truly believes in pampering her guests. She even has a stocked fridge and pantry, and birthday wishes for me. I have never enjoyed beautiful antiques like this one. Her towels and linens are of the best quality. They even have a huge dog house with a cot and a dog run. Highly recommend this wonderful guest house!!

Beautiful property, enjoyed our stay!definately recommend.

Very Nice, great place to stay. Very much recommended.

Our stay was filled with enjoying the hot Finnish sauna and marvelling at the record collection. A wonderful stay and we definitely enjoyed making new turkey friends. Furthermore, Susan and Tom have thought of everything that anyone staying there could possibly need. From delicious German beer all the way to reading glasses that my 26 year old self definitely didnt need. THANK YOU!! see you next time! 😘

The host thought of everything you could possibly need or want for a weekend getaway. It was perfect for us to meet our family who live in Rathdrum. They walked in the cozy cabin and said “wow”! Susan welcomed us with a delicious cheese board and beverages. Her passion for her guest to be comfortable shows in every detail in every room. Perfecto! Irene and Mark

Host was amazing! Met us at the house and gave us a tour and left us with a charcuterie tray of delicious snacks. From there it was a stay filled with nature in a beautiful home. The wild turkeys that stopped by along with the curious Alpacas next door made this trip peaceful, relaxing and comfortable. We were just outside the town so restaurants and necessities were just right there. So glad we chose this place!

After a very long drive of over 7 hours, we were greeted with the biggest smile and welcoming hug than we have ever received from a host. After welcoming us inside we were delighted to find a welcoming charcuterie board consisting of fruits, assorted cheeses and meats. A wonderful unexpected bonus. The cabin is charming with a hint of modern and rustic all in one. The property is located in a very quiet are of Rathdrum and is easily located close to all of the things to do in the area, The refrigerator is stocked with items for your use as well as a nicely stocked pantry. All complementary and included in your stay. The larger of the two bedrooms has a wonderful king sized mattress while the smaller bedroom appears to be a queen. All the appliances are spotless and new. The property affords many hiking trails, be sure to hike up the valley overlook where you are treated to two adirondack chairs with sweeping views of the valley below. A daily visit by wild turkeys is very entertaining. There is a wood stove for cold nights and don't miss the sauna on the back porch. If conditions are ok, there is a nice fire pit in the back yard. There is air conditioning and heat via ductless heat pumps. There is a nice deck of the main living area. For longer term stays there is a washer and dryer to use.we will definitely book again if the need arises.

This place is amazing. Susan and Thomas have created a calming oasis in Rathdrum. Every detail is thoughtfully put together. Hospitality at its finest. We loved every moment and were sad to leave. We will be back!
