Saint Charles, Idaho
Looking for a vacation spot that is truly away from the hustle and bustle Then welcome to the RAWHIDE RENDEZVOUS! Located in the quiet town of St. Charles, Idaho, in the northern end of Bear Lake Valley (Idaho and Utah), this beautiful country home (two-story, wheelchair-accessible) on a one-acre lot is perfect for a single family or a family reunion. The home is air conditioned for your comfort during the summer months and has a fireplace to warm you during the winter. There’s plenty of parking for cars and four-wheelers/snowmobiles, and you have full use of the oversized two-car garage. North Beach, our favorite of all of Bear’s Lake’s beaches, is a quick 10-minute drive away; Garden City is only 11.7 miles south; and Minnetonka Cave and other nearby activities are only minutes away.
The house is 3,400 square feet, has six (6) bedrooms and four (4) full bathrooms, and sleeps eighteen (18) in beds. We will accommodate groups up to 34 (children two years of age and younger are not counted in the 34). There are nine (9) sleeping mats located in various closets in the home, and kids are welcome to sleep on the couches and comfortable lounge chairs.
Per St. Charles City regulations, no tents or camp trailers can be set up in the yard. Also, no parking is allowed on the city road (200 South). Renters may host parties with more than 34 people as long as overnight guests do not exceed 34. However, because of insurance restrictions, we are unable to host weddings.
The main floor has a wonderful great room with floor-to-ceiling, lake-facing windows, a big-screen HDTV, Blu-ray/DVD player, wireless internet, well-equipped kitchen with enough dishes for a Thanksgiving dinner, dining area, and laundry room. Three of the six bedrooms are located on the main floor. The master bedroom has its own private bathroom, and the other two bedrooms share a bathroom.
The downstairs is a daylight basement that opens onto a patio that faces the lake. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms are located downstairs. There is a large family room and a small kitchenette with a sink, small fridge, and microwave. Another big-screen HDTV with Blu-ray/DVD player can be found in the family room, along with an extensive movie selection.

We ❤️it! Most of the bedrooms rooms were big and spacious. It was clean with all the essentials you need. We would stay there again!
The house and yard were both well kept and beautiful. We love staying in the quiet little town of St Charles. It very much suits our family, and is very close to our favorite beach. It was stormy for part of our stay, but the kids kept entertained by a great seection of DVDs, so that was nice.
The house was perfect for our family reunion! St. Charles is the best place to enjoy bear lake without the crowds. The yard was perfect for the kids to run around! The kitchen was well stocked and felt like we had everything we needed for a wonderful weekend.
Such a beautiful place. We had our family there for 4 nights. Very clean, very well designed for a family get together. Will definitely stay again.
Great place to stay. We will be back. Thanks!
We have come to this place 4 or 5 times in the last 8 years. Only reason we haven’t stayed every year was due to no availability when we could come. Great property.
The house is a great floor plan and the outdoor set up is perfect.
We've stayed here twice and plan to stay again. St. Charles is the best place to stay to avoid Garden City crowds. The home is clean and comfortable. We love the space and the layout for our family of 20. The front lawn is amazing for kids to run around and play. We will come back again and again as long as it is available.
Everything as described! Tons of room inside and out! Stocked! Stocked stocked! Everything you would ever need was here! Multiple fridges, tons of kitchen stuff, lots of outdoor seating, lots of towels and extra blankets. Such a fantastic location!
An awesome place to stay and we will definitely be looking to stay again!
Excellent location for Best Lake. North end of lake less tragic rural setting
This house was great for a large group. I brought 18 people for the weekend and we had a blast!
Already sent a text about the Bat problem, killed one bat in the umbrella in the picnic table. Lot's of bat droppings. Grill was left very dirty. Clean that up ourselves. the propane tank on the right side is out of propane. Fixed the back door, it was sticking quite a bit. Refrigerator Ice maker not working. Could have used more pillows. Over all it was a nice place to stay for the 24 of us. :)
We celebrated our annual family reunion and couldn’t be happier with our stay. Amazing location only a 5min drive to the lake, huge yard which allowed for football and volleyball games. The house has an open floor plan, a lot of natural lighting, and some beautiful views. Hope to be back next year!
Excellent overall process. Property suits our needs perfectly.
This is a great space for a multi family gathering. Nice large size bedrooms, plenty of beds and bedding, a wonderful big yard that we spent much time in playing baseball, stomp rockets, frisbee etc. good location close to more than just Bear Lake. Had good space for manipulating a wheelchair. Just a lovely space.
We all enjoyed our stay. The teenagers found it great and had plenty of room to roam and just hang out. The younger kids had a blast with all the space and yard. We adults had room to sit and visit and all joined in different games playing kick ball, softball and football. Volley ball and games I’ve never heard of. The home was clean and with lots of towels and had all the cooking utensils that we needed except I was told they could of used a crock pot. The modem is located in the garage and coverage is not all that great in some parts of the house. We plan to book this home again as we really enjoyed it!
Property was great.
House was awesome! We have a big family and this house is kid friendly, holds a lot of people and close to everything, yet far enough away from all the craziness. We really enjoyed staying here. This was our second time using and loved it both times.
Was a great place to have a family reunion.
Everything was very clean, neat and very well-stocked, just as a regular home would be. Everything we needed, we had. I slept on a bed roll the first night, and had the best night of sleep ever! They were really nicer than expected. There was plenty of room for our family, and things really couldn't have been better. Thanks for letting us stay in your home!
