Unique Sandpoint Home with Hot Tub Near Schweitzer!

The Newport Plums Estate is a one-of-a-kind estate house located walking distance from downtown Sandpoint with all of its outstanding award-winning restaurants and shops. This is the ideal home to stay at for any family or group coming to enjoy winter sports in Sandpoint or at Schweitzer Mountain Resort for the 2025-26 season. The property is about a 10 minute drive to the mountain. Past groups that have stayed during the winter have raved how they get to enjoy the "best of both worlds" that Sandpoint has to offers during the winter. The house is walking distance from the award-winning restaurants, pubs and bars in Downtown Sandpoint which are far better than the limited offerings at Schweitzer Village which also close way too early. For those skiers looking to complement their long days on the slopes with a great hot tubbing experience, this is the place to stay. We are the only home in Sandpoint that has a Diamond Spa custom made stainless steel jacuzzi which (as you can see from the pictures) is sheltered from the elements under a fiberglass roof and can seat up to 8 people. Winter guests have described our jacuzzi as the perfect spot to unwind after a day on the slopes with beer and/or your wine in hand and stars above. The house and outdoor area by the jacuzzi has been wired for music throughout with a newly installed AV sound system that comes with XSMR and can be accessed your IOS devices as well to play your preferred playlists. Also, we have installed a brand new outdoor stainless steel gas grill and griddle adjacent to the jacuzzi, which is also depicted in the picture. So guests can now to choose to prepare their own meals inside or out. Our owners, Melissa and Brian Kramer, love managing this unique property and making sure that our guests experience is outstanding.

Enjoy the best of both worlds as the estate is only 7.5 mile drive to Schweitzer Mountain Resort and three blocks away from downtown Sandpoint. While things shut down at the Schweitzer village at sundown, you can enjoy all the downtown shops, restaurants and bars (and, of course, the Panida Theater) late into the evening. Also, there are far more restaurants and pubs downtown to choose from than the limited options at Schweitzer Village. For the serious winter sports enthusiasts there is no better place in Sandpoint to enjoy a fantastic hot tubbing experience than in our new stainless steel Diamond Spa Jacuzzi that sits up to eight people under a covered gazebo. Life doesn't get much better than enjoying our jacuzzi with a glass of wine, beer or even hot chocolate in hand and gazing at the stars after having spent the day on the slopes of Schweitzer. *Note that our pool is shut down for winterization every year from mid-October through sometime in May so it is not available for guests during this Winter period.* SUMMER STAY FUN There is a lot to do in Sandpoint during the Summer.
