The second home story here is stronger than most because the four seasons all work. Summer is boats and hiking, fall is elk and larch color, winter is groomed snowmobile trails, sixty groomed miles in Kootenai County, and spring is trout and the roads coming back. The plat is close enough to Spokane airport that a Friday flight in and a Sunday flight out is realistic for a hard working family.
Fiber service from the first day of occupancy means you can leave the house networked and check on it remotely, rather than taking whatever a national provider is willing to run down your road.
