Wanted for nothing just a longer stay
Beautiful place, horses happy and content after riding and so were their owners. Clean, spacious and well stocked cabin. Our hostess was very informative and helpful. Already making ride plans for next year!

Awesome Mountain Getaway!
The house and property are absolutely beautiful! The hosts were outstanding and extremely welcoming. The river on property held plenty of trout for fishing and there are plenty of options for other fishing and hiking nearby. Being a remote property makes it difficult to bring all of your supplies when you fly but the hosts provide all of your toiletries, bedding, and even coffee pods for the morning! The stars above are amazing and the property would be great for a small getaway or a family outing. If you are planning a trip to central Idaho this property should be on top of your list.
