Hi Everyone,

Finally some sun on our faces! The snow on the mountains is melting and the lake is filling up… summer must be on its way. We have had such a cold spring that I still don’t have my flowers in the ground yet.
I am happy to say that the weather is looking like I can get started this week. Yeah!

For those of you that haven’t made your summer plans yet, you are in luck! We still have a few full weeks available. We’d like to give a free bonus week away to the first 4 families that call to make a reservation for a 2009 summer weekly rental. You may use the bonus week for yourself or give it as a gift. Some restrictions apply. Please call for the details.

FYI…

The Festival at Sandpoint has posted the 2009 concert series line up.

Tawnie Sleep Receives Outstanding Individual Achievement Award

Described as a “tireless promoter of our community,” owner of Sleep’s Cabins Tawnie Sleep was recognized by the state of Idaho at the recent Idaho Conference on Recreation and Tourism. She received the Outstanding Individual Achievement Award, a Take Pride in Idaho Award presented annually honoring an individual who goes above and beyond their responsibilities to make a significant contribution for developing, managing, or conserving Idaho’s recreation resources.


Tawnie Sleep exemplified these qualities through her efforts to preserve the annual Winter Carnival event this past winter.


“When the announcement went out that there would be no Winter Carnival this year, Tawnie rode the upwelling of disappointment and helped turn that emotion into one of the most positive and memorable Winter Carnivals of recent years,” said Pend d’Oreille Winery owner Stephen Meyer. “She inspired the entire Winter Carnival committee to pitch in and create events that would be sure crowd-pleasers,” he said.

"What a great location for three generations, representing three states to gather for a reunion. The little ones loved the lake and thoroughly enjoyed roasting marshmallows.


The play house was a favorite as well! Thanks for providing such a charming hospitable place to relax and reconnect with each other. "
