spring-fed creeks wind beneath handcrafted stone bridges toward a stone-walled garden and greenhouse just beyond the house. a secluded, deer-fenced meadow extends the property′s cultivated landscape, with a rose garden, orchard, berry beds, and a honeybee hive creating an idyllic private retreat.
loch haven is a self-contained world including a 4,400 sf gate house, a shop complex with multi-bay equipment storage, a protected boat basin with two 8,000-lb lifts and boathouse, a second private cove for additional living quarters, and a renovated 1936 vip cabin on adjoining forest service land with panoramic lake views. twenty-five minutes to sandpoint, minutes from schweitzer, and easy access to all amenities, including coeur d′alene airport. this is truly a once-in-a-generation north idaho sanctuary.
