What's nearby:
This Bayview lake home - a picture-perfect fishing retreat - floats directly in the marina of Bayview, on the west cusp of Scenic Bay in Lake Pend Orielle. Bayview proper is only a half-mile walk from your boat house for a quiet night out. Bayview is also the perfect Idaho destination for the outdoorsy types: water sports are an obvious choice, with over 200 miles of shoreline to kayak, wade, and lots of docks to send off your boat. Enjoy good fishing, a good swim, or just a good float! Bayview is also within the boundaries of Farragut State Park, with ample wildlife-viewing, hiking, and biking trails.

Can't beat being on the water!
This home was great. Yes, it's a bit outdated, but the location makes up for it. This property is a must-see if you're a boater or a lake lover. The price was great as well, considering neighboring properties, some even on the same doc, are listed at 3X the price as this property. Thanks for having us. We will be back!

Fun, comfortable family spot, close to Silverwood.
It’s like staying at your favorite uncles boat house. Comfortable beds, two bathrooms and a lovely upstairs deck over looking the bay. Mitch has everything you need if you want to cook in.

Great VRBO option
Float home was spacious for our family to spread out. Everything's was as listed. Suggestions: update the standard check-in email with relevant information. The "10-digit code" doesn't exist. The wifi information is inaccurate. The downstairs TV wasn't functional and would randomly turn off after about 30 seconds. Turn the lights off in the locked rooms. The light emanating from them gives off creepy vibes like someone is in there.

Fun stay
Great place to stay. Love the upper deck area.... so peaceful especially in mornings with coffee. Our family launched our paddle boards off dock and had a blast exploring. Just wish in future we could bring our lab:)... and house needs a dish scrubber and hair dryer... other than that was wonderful.

The People Are Trash
The people who work at the property were unforgivably rude to us, they lied to us or the listing was inaccurate and we didn't have 2 parking spots which was huge pain and then they laughed at us LOUDLY through broken windows in their dilapidated marina for wearing masks. Then we witnessed soemone in the marina destroy a goose nest filled with eggs.. I hated this trip, and will most likely never book with VRBO again.

Fun Float house.
Was nice to have the boat outside our door even though it was an extra charge. Being on the water was great but the house was tucked in amoung other houses. View was not great. Wonderful lake and weather was nice. Bayview is a fun little town.

Neat and fun experience
We had a terrific time exploring Bayview and Farragut State Park but the nice part about the trip was returning to the cool Float House. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
