Majestic mountain retreat! Prime Location, Hot Tub & Separate Guest Cottage!

Welcome to four seasons of fun!!!

The Huckleberry Haus is your perfect home away from home where you can unplug from the hustle of daily life atop Schweitzer Mountain, just 1.2 miles from the entrance to the best downhill skiing in North Idaho.

Huckleberry Haus is a brand new custom home that is most comfortable for 6 guests but sleeps up to 8 guests and will make you feel right at home.

The main house has a private king bedroom, a full bathroom with a shower/tub combo, and a loft with two twin beds that’s perfect for the kiddos. When you’re done watching that family movie, or reading by the fire, the sofa pulls out into a queen size sleeper for extra sleeping space.

Two guests can also sleep in their own private detached bunk house adjacent to the house with a queen bed, bathroom and shower. **Bunk house is now available for winter use!*

Other bonuses of Huckleberry Haus:
⁃Your feet will always feel cozy as they hit the radiant floor heating through the house and garage.
⁃You’ll easily settle in as you effortlessly leverage the kitchen and high-end appliances.
⁃And most importantly, you’ll restore and relax after all your adventures as you soak under the stars in the outdoor hot tub.
- Extra fun regardless of the season include walking distance to mountain biking trails, large selection of board games, DVDs and kids toys, access to a year round creek behind the property and a true escape to relax and unplug!

As a year-round destination, summer provides excellent mountain biking and hiking trails literally out your back door. Running behind the cabin you’ll wander by a peaceful stream as you meet up with the small connector trail that gives you immediate access to the Little Sand Creek Basin Trail system. During the months of July or August you can pick huckleberries in the front yard and all over the mountainside (hence our namesake). No matter the season, food, outdoor adventure and fun await you at the Village just a 2-3 minute drive away.


Please note: For security purposes only, there is property surveillance on the exterior of the house/outdoor spaces surrounding the house.

Gorgeous Cabin in Nature
We were impressed with Huckleberry Haus. The place was very well stocked and even had family games we could play on the one rainy day we had. The place was new with high quality appliances and the spacious garage was an added bonus. It was a treat to use the hot tub at the end of a busy day.

Beautiful Location and Property
This was a great place to stay! Excellent location for accessing the ski area. Unfortunately we were most going into town which made the mountain road a bit more cumbersome, but that is on us. Even with that, we would stay here again. The house was clean and well maintained, small but spacious, and we felt right at home right away. The loft ladder was a bit tricky to navigate, but our children had no problem going up and down and made their stay feel extra special with the 'kids' space being separate. Brandon and Rachel were very responsive when we had questions or issues (only a very minor thing with a fan occured), and resolved quickly.

Cozy Home Away From Home
You can tell the owners truly thought of ways to make the stay easy for families. We had plenty of space for our family of 5. It was so easy to get ready for skiing and drive to the lower lot and hop on the lift. We had two runs in before opening bell! The sledding hill added another layer of fun to our stay. The kids played on the hill for hours. We really appreciated the storage containers so we could easily pack lunches and snacks for the day. The hosts were so kind and easy to work with and quick to communicate!

Great location
Our family of four stayed here for four nights. The house was fantastic. It was so close to skiing but was very private. Unfortunately the ski conditions were not the best but we were happy to get back to the house and use the hot tub and just hang out. The beds were comfortable, the entire place felt new and clean, and the kitchen was well appointed with all the basics needed.

Great place!
The property and home are absolutely beautiful!! Feels very homey and comfortable. The only issue we had is the fan above the loft. My sister wacked her head pretty good on that thing and probably should have gotten stitches (owners should probably consider getting the fan moved). Other than that the stay was absolutely wonderful!!

Beautiful Vacation Home!!!
What a great home for our family of 5 during our stay in Idaho!! The Huckleberry Haus is very clean, well equipped and really just a delight to stay in! It snowed a lot while we were there and the scenery was so beautiful all around the home!! It is just minutes to the mountain which was very convenient for drop off and pick up of the skiers, as not all of us ski! And the hot tub was wonderful to relax in after a day on the slopes! Brandon and Rachel went above and beyond to help us feel welcome and it was comforting knowing they were just a text away if we needed them! Thank you for an amazing stay and if we return to Schweitzer again, we know where to stay!! Thanks again for all your help! :)

Perfect spot to enjoy Schweitzer in the winter
Our family of four really enjoyed our stay at the Huckleberry Haus. It was a gem! Few things we especially liked: in the winter it can feel really dark during the day, but this place has amazing floor to ceiling windows that ensures you do not at all feel trapped inside. Also, the radiant floor heat was super cozy and made coming home from skiing way more comfortable. Our teenage son loved the separate sleeping quarters, for the privacy and ability to sleep in when his parents were up early making coffee and banging around the perfectly appointed kitchen. I'm sure this place is awesome in the summer also but it's definitely perfect for getting to the mountain for skiing in less than 5 minutes. We'll be back! Above all else the hosts were super responsive, kind, and helpful when we had questions... almost like family!

Minutes from the ski hill and such a fabulous house for our ski trip with a group of friends. Loved all of the amenities and everything about this property. The guest house was wonderful. The hot tub after a day of skiing was incredible. The hosts were very helpful with any questions we had. Would highly recommend to anyone considering a trip to Schweitzer.
