Das Seehaus am Sacheen

Enjoy lakeside serenity in this cozy bungalow steps away from Sacheen Lake! The expansive deck offers the best of indoor/outdoor living with plenty of space to enjoy outdoor dining, a relaxing fire in the firepit, and the sights and sounds of the lake. Take advantage of the boat launch directly next to the house with the 2 kayaks and paddleboard included for no charge! Sacheen Lake offers premier fishing, swimming, and boating. In the winter, it’s an ice-fishers paradise and close to multiple ski resorts!

THE SPACE
The home has been thoughtfully updated and features a large kitchen that is fully stocked with all the cookware and tools needed for in-home cooking. The 2 queen mattresses are premium memory foam to ensure a restful stay. Note, there are two bedrooms but one has a barn door divider to turn it into two separate spaces - see photos. The couch pulls out to a bed, for a total bed count of 5. The living room is the perfect place to relax in front of the propane fireplace and smart TV with full streaming services. There is a fully stocked laundry room for your convenience.

Outside, there are 2 kayaks and a paddleboard available for your use, as well as a propane grill on the deck. There is an outdoor dining table on the deck which is a prime spot the watch the bald eagles that nest on the lake soar by.

The home is located 40 minutes from North Spokane and about an hour from Spokane airport. The town of Newport is about a 20-minute drive away. Only minutes from 49 North Ski Hill, 35 minutes from Mt Spokane, and 50 minutes to Schweitzer. This home is far enough away from the city to feel disconnected from the hustle & bustle, but still close to nearby amenities!

GUEST ACCESS
In the Winter months the road is plowed privately. We recommend a car with studded snow tires or 4-wheel drive as the road could be packed with snow and there is a little incline coming in and out of the carport. It is accessible all year.

Note that there are about 25 steps leading up from the carport to enter the house, so this property is not ADA accessible and not recommended for those with mobility challenges.

OTHER NOTES
Please note there is no direct lake access and NO DOCK ACCESS. The community dock in the neighborhood is strictly for residents only per our rental permit and not accessible to guests. However the public boat launch is directly adjacent to the house just steps away. You'll notice folks using it throughout the day, but it's not usually crowded and we don't find it distractive.

There is NO central air conditioning. There is a ceiling fan in the living room and tower fans in the bedrooms, and well as window fans and a small portable AC unit available in the bedroom closets. We find that we can usually get a nice cross breeze going on extra hot days by opening the windows to take advantage of the breeze coming off the lake. There are baseboard heaters in each room throughout the house.

Our home runs on a well. It’s safe to drink but please bring filtered water if you prefer, although there is a water filtration pitcher in the fridge.
