Our Priest Lake "Lifetime of Vacations" home is located in Cavanaugh Bay on the East shore. This is not on the main East Shore Road as you may think. This is the original "Cavanaugh Bay Road" that dead ends at Cougar Creek. This makes it a sort of an unknown and quiet little road that doesn't go through beyond the creek. Another words, little or no traffic. One of the best restaurant/bars on the lake, as well as, the air strip are a convenient 10 minute walk. There is privacy on both the north and south sides of the house. About 320 feet behind is woods. The lake shore is about 40 feet in front. The shoreline is rocky but also has nice little sandy areas. The dock is actually quite large and stable compared to many on the lake. Trails and Falls hikes are abundant both on our road and a short distance north on the East Shore road. We have the best natural fire pit I have seen on the lake that is conveniently located off the deck near the kitchen and bbq. It will accommodate large crowds and big fires. You will need to harvest your our burning wood out of the forest behind the house. There is plenty up there! We also have a fire pit down by the lake that we love but find a little less use for.
The home itself is quite practical for lake use. It has a bit of a 70's feel, but appliances, carpet, and linoleum has been updated in the main area. The kitchen, barbecue, , deck and fire pit are all nicely linked together so no matter the activity everyone is close.
The Bunk House is quite fun for all the children and helps give privacy between the adults and children after a long day on the water. Its quiet and will accommodate a kid movie, or rock out session. They can also sleep in better in the morning if desired. There is room for quite a few in the bunk house but depends on individual needs or expectations how many you actual want to fit. We use comfy sleeping pads out there to maintain flexibility.
The property actually has lots of parking compared to other lots on our road. It is mostly flat or partially inclined. Loading in and out is a piece of cake right in to the kitchen, main house, and bunk house.
