Thank you for the suggestion! We include a Weber charcoal grill for guest use, but a propane grill would be nice. We will definitely consider it.

Charming little home with lovely back yard for gathering around the fire pit or being mesmerized by the sound of the little creek running through, just steps away. Couldn't get much closer to the middle of town... a block off of Main Street in a quiet neighborhood. The perfect combination of convenience and comfort. Oh, and the bedding.... heavenly!!!

Thanks Michele! Yes, the backyard with the giant fire pit and overhead string lights is one of our favorite spots to relax and hang out with family and friends. Only the best...we provide high-quality towels and bed linens for our guests.

Beautifully kept property

Every detail seemed to be well taken care of from the beautiful lawn to the supplies. The outdoor sitting area by the little stream was a great place to relax after a day of adventurers.

Perfect stay in small town, USA

Stayed here with 5 other friends for the River of No Return Endurance race. It was absolutely perfect size and price. Literally couldn't find something better. The kitchen had everything we needed for our communal meals and the fire pit next to the creek in the backyard sealed the deal. The neighbors were very friendly as well. I'll be staying here again.

Perfect for our family

What a relaxing and comfortable home! We are 2 brothers and a sister in our 60’s with one adult nephew, visiting Challis for an event. The three bedrooms are god sized with comfortable beds. The dining table is fabulous for eating, visiting, and playing crib! We didn’t really cook while there, however, there are plenty of equipment and basic supplies. The backyard area is gorgeous- I loved listening to Garden Creek rush by. Close to local activities. The bathroom is small but certainly worked just fine. To sum up- quiet, comfortable with very attractive decor. Even my brothers loved it!
