Comfy, charming cabin on the Salmon River a few miles from Gold Bug Hot Springs
Enjoy the views, wildlife and quiet on the scenic Salmon River. Located 23 miles south of the town of Salmon, Idaho the cabin has all the comforts of home. Unique opportunities for recreation on the river or hiking and enjoying the local hot springs. Great for hunting and fishing. Gateway to some of the largest wilderness in the U.S. Located off of scenic Hiway 93, the drive down is as lovely as the view from the deck. House comes with all the amenities and a large 800 square foot deck right on the river. Three bedrooms and a queen fold out bed in the living room mean lots of room for families to spread out and enjoy themselves. The house comes with wifi and a DVD player, games and puzzles. The perfect place to relax and unwind after a day on the river or in the back country. Surrounded by peace and quiet, you may even hear the occasional hoot of an owl at night.

Rustic, Relaxing Cabin
My sister and her husband and I enjoyed the deck and beautiful river scenery. Very quiet, relaxing. We grilled one night, cooked others. We did a day rafting on the Salmon (fun—tons of exotic wildlife!). We did a day at Goldbug Hot Springs (spectacular) and Williams Lake. Saw the Ghost Town. Long drives to get places, and not tons to do. But if you are looking for peace and quiet, it’s perfect.

Great property about 20 miles south of Salmon. View and river proximity as advertised. No cable, but streaming capabilities. Tv in bedroom requires casting. This aspect should be better explained on website.

Nice house on the river
The house is on a lovely lot with trees and a big deck, a few feet from the Salmon River. The beds were comfortable and the internet service was good. The location was perfect for us about midway between Challis and Salmon. The only drawback is there is a lot of highway noise from Route 93, so although the setting is quite lovely it’s not really peaceful. Would stay again.

Charming cabin
Let me start by saying that the pictures do not do this cabin justice. It is such a beautiful, cozy, inviting place. We loved spending our days on the deck and watching the river flow by. It is such a beautiful setting. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had all the supplies we could want or need. We had a family of deer visit every night and a bald eagle would fly above the river while we ate dinner outside. It is a truly special place.

Hidden gem
The cabin was perfect! It had such charm and is so unique, and yet also has all the amenities that we needed! The deck is glorious, and my son loved fishing in the river. The birds are wonderful to watch and listen to, and we were so delighted with the two baby deer and their momma who were frequent visitors. We found the location to be ideal to explore the area. We would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful!!!!
My husband and I stayed in this adorable cabin for 4 nights. I can't begin to describe how amazing this property was! The cabin itself was spotless clean. I haven't stayed in a property that was this well equipped! The washer and dryer was so convenient after a day spent at the hot springs. The back deck was a stone's throw from the Salmon River. We spent many hours on the deck watching the river flow by. It was so relaxing! We utilized the gas grill for cooking our dinners.
If I am in the area again, I will definitely stay there again!

Nice place on t e river
Second time we stayed here, met our needs, close to the area we wanted to be. Just for us it was just too hot this time of year so we’ll see how it works up next year. I’m assuming this property is used for hunting and fishing so a hose outside for you so might be nice. be careful of the low branch on the three backing into the driveway.

Sheer Heaven
This was the best vacation, in a cute cabin right on the river.
All we saw were fish that we caught right in our backyard, bald eagles, blue herons, lots of deer, ducks and the most stars in the sky at night I have ever seen, the milky way was right above us.
I would recommend this place to anyone who wants peace and quiet!!!!

This place was perfect for myself and my two girl friends. Relaxing right by the riverside and watching the wildlife was wonderful. Fully stocked kitchen (even had a few things like popcorn and pancake mix) and room for all the food we brought was excellent. 9/10 - Would recommend.

Loved Idaho and loved this house. The house is homey with a vintage feel. It is incredibly well stocked, has beds comfy, and a nice bathroom. As others have said the views from the deck are spectacular. We didn’t want to leave. We met Jeanne the caretaker on our last day. She is great.

Clean, Cozy Cabin in Beautiful Location
I can’t say enough about this cabin. It was clean, well-equipped, and the location was beautiful! We sat out on the back deck every evening drinking wine overlooking the spectacular Salmon River! (The ONLY thing negative I have to say … and it’s a tiny matter … is that the microwave is too weak. Maybe an upgrade in the future?) Again, loved the place!

We have stayed at this cabin too many time to count, its just beautiful and peaceful. We wouldn't have come back time after time if it wasn't just a perfect cabin. With the sound of the river in the background and the awesome views this is must for people that want to get away from other people.

Great location right on the river
All of the communication was a great host was amazing and a location without standing. Right on the river and right down the road from a great fishing hole. If you’re looking for a place to decompress with a great view and environment this is a place for you. We really appreciate the host and support team
