Set on pristine acres overlooking the neighbor's private lake, “Lazy 2 Elk Lake Lodge” is a private mountainside retreat designed for those who chase trophy days and demand comfort and ambiance when the rods are put away. This property offers unmatched seclusion with close access to some of the region's most coveted fishing and outdoor terrain just northwest of Henrys Lake in Island Park, close to the Montana-Idaho border off Hwy-87. Surrounded by hundreds of miles of interconnected ATV and off-road trails, this is a true basecamp for serious outdoor enthusiasts. A wraparound porch delivers unobstructed vistas perfect for morning coffee before hitting the lake or a relaxing evening as the sun drops behind the peaks.
This home features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and two large living rooms (one with their own sleeper sofa and full size bed), comfortably sleeping 11 guests in total. The expansive lower-level master suite elevates the stay even further, featuring a spa-like bathroom complete with a large walk-in shower, private sauna, and a classic clawfoot tub. The fully stocked kitchen is ready for everything from quick breakfasts to hearty post-adventure feasts, while the main-level dining room boasts sweeping views. After a long day on the water, unwind beside one of two floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplaces, each with its own spacious living area framed by expansive mountain views that stretch across the Continental Divide. Whether you're here for world-class fishing, big game country, or simply the quiet prestige of true mountain solitude, “Lazy 2 Elk Lake Lodge” delivers an uncompromising blend of rugged access and refined ambiance.
