"The staff 10/10. Cleanliness 10/10. Bed 10/10"

Cabin overlooking Salmon River south of White Bird - Family friendly + Starlink!

10/10 Excellent

"What fun it was to stay up high above the river to see all the mountains and hills around. House was charming, beds comfortable, kitchen well stocked, 2 lovely bathrooms, and room to roam inside and outside."

Hells Canyon

10/10 Excellent

"The property is everything you could hope for in Whitebird Idaho. A home that is nice for a couple and their pets. It is on nice average on the side of the mountain just 1.6 miles from the center of Whitebird. The home had everything you needed. We hope to come again."

Charming Casita With Spectacular River Views

10/10 Excellent

"Super Adorable. Plan on visiting again!"

Cozy Middle Fork Cabin. Across from Clearwater River

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place to stay. It is about 5 miles south of Kamiah. Much bigger than expected, very clean and well stocked with all cooking items. Internet worked well and had A/C. We would definitely stay there again or in their adjacent rental. Only downside is that it is right on the highway and although traffic noise can be loud at times it did not bother us too much. We were very impressed and no hesitation staying there again."

Charming 3-bedroom home with WiFi, AC in delightful Kooskia

10/10 Excellent

"An absolute gem of a cabin! It was super clean, and the incredibly comfortable beds let us get some much-needed sleep. I work a high-stress job, and this was the perfect place to unwind and slow down. Sitting on the patio with a cup of tea watching the ducks float by each morning and evening was pure bliss. My husband and I first discovered Kooskia on our honeymoon 36 years ago, and we are so thankful we found this cabin on our latest trip back. We will definitely be renting again!"

Reflections Inn

8/10 Good

"Reflections Inn was in a very lovely forested area acrosss the highway from the river. The grounds were beautifully maintained with a large nicely mowed lawn flanking the drive up to the lodge. Each room had a table and chairs outside for enjoying the evening or morning; whatever your preference. Our room had a very comfortable king sized bed, nicely appointed bathroom with everything you might need: hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, and bar soap, and plenty of towels. Our coffee area had coffee, tea, suger and creamers but no cups. We had cups in the car so that was a very minor thing. The other guests were friendly and helpful, we were there with firefighters from Alabama. Our stay was so enjoyable and relaxing, I would have been happy to stay longer."

Riverfront Cabin w/Loft in Riggins - Cozy Getaway!

10/10 Excellent

"This place was amazing. So cute and cozy. It was stocked wirh everything you think you might need. The host was so kind to let us in early and was very responsive to messages. Would recommend this place."
