Meet The Rafters—a funky 1972 mountain home with soul, style, and serious adventure access. Tucked into the trees at the base of Schweitzer Mountain and just minutes from downtown Sandpoint, this 2-bed, 1-bath cabin is the perfect launchpad for year-round play. Whether you're chasing first tracks, pedaling a dirt track, or paddling the lake, this place brings you into nature in the best way. Set on 1.69 acres of rocky wooded land along Little Sand Creek, it’s your own private base camp. Take in the views from one of multiple fire pits and layered decks or enjoy the lulling sounds of the year round creek from your private water front sanctuary. Inside, warm cedar walls meet vaulted ceilings, and beautifully expansive windows bring natural light and the outdoors in. A Kuma Stove and newly installed bamboo floors, e-heat heaters and Milgard sliders bring energy efficient modern function to this home’s vintage charm. The open floor plan makes it easy to relax, entertain, or crash after a full day in the mountains. This home comes with a grandfathered holding tank septic. Although it’s a unique system, it’s simple to maintain and your costs will be comparable to traditional in-town sewer service, so you get the best of both worlds. This is not your average cabin—it’s got personality, a little funk, and just the right amount of rough-around-the-edges to feel like home. With fresh paint and turn-key ready, The Rafters is the perfect Mountain Side Cabin.
