Beautiful home! Had everything we needed. Beds were so comfortable. Love the TV viewing area in the living room with the reclining lounge chairs. Felt like you were at the movies. House was super clean. Would easily rent again. Property manager Kelly was a quick text away if I had any questions. She was very responsive.
Beautiful very inviting place to stay. We reserved this beautiful cabin to attend a fun run at Smith's Ferry. We didn't get to spend much time there. We loved it and are definitely planning on booking again in the future to spend more time at the cabin.

Lovely cabin in the woods, clean and quiet. Plenty of outdoor activities in the area to get out and enjoy. We enjoyed kayaking, rafting, horse back rides, and the natural hot springs in the area.
We could not have chosen a more idyllic, upscale yet incredibly cozy cabin for our Family Girl's Winder Getaway!All those lovely recliners around that magnificent fireplace enticed us to curl up and relax...add a bit of wood to the fire...and continue to savor the ambience!The cabin offers privacy, yet a small store/eatery is just a five minute drive.We're looking forward to returning, perhaps next time to enjoy the river sans the snow.Photos are accurate. Overall, this property met or surpassed all our expectations.
We had a good stay. Beautiful area. The view of the river was mostly through the trees. It was a steep walk down to the river and a bit longer distance to get there than I expected. Overall a great stay and very nice place. Fast internet access which allowed us to work remote as needed during our stay. Verizon cellphone access was also very good. The area was beautiful.

Christmas Cabin
The private road had been plowed so although the parking area was slick, there was no concern about getting stuck. The gentleman who plowed the are was very friendly. The cabin was warm upon arrival which was very nice. I really appreciated the effort to add a little Christmas cheer with the two centerpieces and lights on the mantle. There could be a bit more lighting in the great room. Great sledding, the kids loved it.

Amazing
The cabin itself is beautiful (and cozy) and the recliners and beds were super comfortable. The view out the front window is awesome. The deck is perfect for BbQ’ing and we ate most of our meals outside. Everything is first class, the coffeemaker, the tv set-up, etc. We had everything we needed. Our family had a lovely vacation in this beautiful setting. I highly recommend this home.

Great cabin the woods
This cabin was AMAZING!!! As soon as we walked into the cabin, it felt like home. The attention to detail they put into this cabin to make it like home was wonderful! From the huge trees in the front of the house to the huge back deck, there isn't a place on the property that you can't find some wildlife, or some beautiful place to sit with your morning coffee!
There isn't enough words to express how welcoming the owners make you feel. Thank you Kelly and Jim for the memories you allowed us to make here in your cabin!

From the Owner: "Jason, thank you for a wonderful review. We were lucky to share our home with such kind and respectful guests. It was a pleasure working with you and look forward to connecting again."
First time staying closer to Smiths Ferry verses Cascade, Donnelly, or McCall. Property was quiet & home spacious for our large group. Pleasantly surprised by large laundry/storage area to keep coolers, snow gear out of way of main areas. Property manager made sure access to property was plowed frequently. We ran out of firewood that we brought but available wood to purchase on site was very reasonable. So was the early check in rate. Had lunch one day at Cougar Creek Lodge which is only a mile or two from property & it was excellent! Left 2 coats behind in a forgotten closet & Kelly was kind enough to bring into Meridian so we could arrange To get them from her. Overall, exceptional experience!
We had an enjoyable stay. Have stayed in Smiths Ferry area a number of times and thoroughly enjoy the quietness it offers. This property is great for this purpose. It is by far the most expensive property we have seen in the area, but that is an individual decision we made to accommodate our schedule.
Property was comfortable, well stocked with essentials, clean and has a great view. Kelly (contact for the stay) was very responsive for any questions we had. Thank you Kelly!! The view toward the river highlights this location. Enjoyed sitting on the porch in the morning looking west over the river.
Only a couple of suggestions. Might want to consider having some shades installed on the west windows so that the late afternoon sun could be filtered. It is really bright for an hour or two and, given how the furniture is situated, makes it difficult sit in the living room this time of day. While the BBQ worked, it is old and well past its prime and could use some attention.
Overall, a great stay!

Absolutely Beautiful land and Cabin
During my families stay we hiked, fished, and watched movies, played board games and had an outstanding time. The kitchen is fully loaded with pots and pans, silverware, bowls, and plates. We met some of the residents nearby and they were all very kind. The hiking route is breathtaking. It’s runs down some steep hills onto an old rail road track that is no longer in use and it runs all along the payette river. Following the tracks leads to an old land slide that you can easily hike around and then to a tunnel that is carved into a cliff side. It’s about a 30 minute walk round trip. The cabin is amazing, it’s very large. Has 3 bedrooms with king beds and an extra bed outside the upstairs bedrooms. A HUGE deck surrounds the entire house with a fire pit in back. TV has many streaming services. The only negative to our stay was a water heater going out, of which was handled the moment I reported it and when they couldn’t fix it that day the home next door was available for us to use to shower in and was swiftly cleaned. I definitely recommend this cabin! It’s definitely the best home away from home we’ve been to.

The kind of getaway you'd gladly expirence twice!
What a wonderful weekend we had at such a beautiful peaceful home! We are already talking about wanting to stay again in the summer for a whole different expirence! We celebrated our twins turning 7, enjoyed the BEST private sledding, and made memories for our kids that they are over the moon happy about. We only expirenced a couple minor issues but they were nothing that was gonna hold us back from having the best time! Upstairs breaker is sensitive, which we learned quickly and simply just became more aware of what was all on at one time. No big deal! We did get stuck on the way up, It was complete ice and our truck unfortunately had some issues with 4x4 working properly. Luckily we were just down the hill around the corner, so I grabbed some stuff and took the kids up to the cabin. Just told the kiddos, its just a memory we will never forget. Gotta make the best of unforseen situations. Her dad was even SO kind to do it on his own birthday even though we would have totally understood and had the patience to wait until morning. Rare kinda guy, walking up that icy hill late at night with no complaints. He did it with a smile on his face, and we all made the best of the situation. The truck made it safely up to the cabin and we moved on like nothing happened. Life is unexpected and we are not upset at all over our small setbacks. Just want to mention them to help others be aware and hopefully prepare.We are absolutely greatful to have had such wonderful host to allow us to enjoy such a beautiful expirence. Thank you, truly. These trips can be ruined by a negative person in charge, so thank you, thank you, thank you for not only allowing us in your home, but for giving us a positive, fun expirence we will never forget! We absolutely recommend enjoying a stay here! It's a hard one to leave!
