The property was dog friendly and provided a central location for visiting state parks in the area. It was also close to hot spring pools that were very nice. Restaurants in Buhl were also fine places to eat.
Great fishing, amazing serene peaceful environment.
Supper clean, amazing host would definitely recommend to friends and family

Close to the river
One of the pictures in the listing made it look like the river was just outside the door, but it was a short walk down a descent path to get there. We had an incredible time and wish we could have stayed longer.
Low key, relaxing area. Slightly funky yurt furnishings/supplies. Very nice bath house. Perfect little hot tub overlooking the river. Dog friendly - especially nice with the grassy area down by the river. It was a really good little getaway.
The setting was perfect, above the river with a short walk down to the water. So pretty and awesome watching pelicans and an eagle fly through. The yurt had everything we needed and a very comfortable bed. Just wished we had stayed longer.
Very Zen-like accommodations staying in this gorgeous yurt along the Snake River. Enjoyed the outdoor tub, friendly cat and gentle sounds of rain to fall asleep to.
Highly recommend.
My wife and I spent a night at the yurt and had a wonderful stay. We were fortunate to receive an early check in and spent most of the afternoon and evening enjoying the property and the nature surrounding it. Excellent bird watching- from the chairs outside the yurt, we saw hawks, pelicans, cormorants, hummingbirds, quails and more! It was clean, comfortable, well appointed and private. We came in the middle of summer and the AC units kept us cool without any issues. It was too warm to try out the hot tub, but we hope to visit again so that we can! Many thanks to Jen who was hosting during our visit!
Was the perfect lauching point for my adventures in Buhl and the magic valley. Very response to an issue I had. Loved soaking in the 'tub' and popping over to nearby Banbury adventures for kayak rental.There were 2 families of quail and close to all the ducks and pelicans on the rivwrriver
Amazing large yurt, above the river. Clean, comfortable, even xtra coffee and popcorn. Beautiful, clean bathroom just steps from the yurt. Outside tub stays warm a very long time. Very quiet, except for the sounds of nature. Owner's cat? was very lovable and friendly and made herself at home, which was a joy for me.
We had such a great time! The property is gorgeous and the yurt is cozy and well-maintained. Also, the bathroom is just a few steps outside the yurt and is brand new. The kitchen area has everything you need to cook a variety of meals. We accidentally tripped the breaker one morning when cooking breakfast and the host responded quickly and solved the problem within minutes. I cant recommend this experience enough!!
