The Space
Completed in 2022, this modern 3 BR/2 BA cabin has a split master floor plan with a large open common area and all the amenities to relax and make lifelong memories. Highlights include the wood burning stove set into a custom river rock and stone fireplace, an 8' long live edge white oak dining table handmade by your host, tongue and groove pine natural finish ceilings, and stunning images of the surrounding landscape by local photographers.

Guest access
You will have access to the entire home. This includes the laundry room, pantry, and garage. We have tried to label and set aside our personal things as much as possible, but we do split our time between Boise and Garden Valley, so we ask that you please ask if there is something accessible that you are unsure whether it is for private or public use.

Escape from the Texas Heat

The cabin was very clean and comfy with beautiful natural surroundings and views. It was a perfect central location for our day trips and adventures (hiking, fly fishing, white water rafting...). We would definitely book again.

Perfect little getaway!

We came up for a quick girls trip and as soon as we walked in the house, it felt like home. The decor and design is so unique! The location and views are an added bonus. We even were visited by a family of deer! We weren’t there long enough, so I’ll definitely be back for a longer stay!

Nice, relaxing trip

We met friends in Garden Valley for a relaxing getaway. The hosts provided a beautiful home that was very clean. I loved the decor and the floor plan and we enjoyed sitting on the front porch each evening. We would stay again if we are ever back in Garden Valley.

Honeymoon

We stayed here for our honeymoon. It was beautiful and very clean. It snowed a lot but it was so wonderful to sit and watch the snow fall with a warm fire going. Saw Elk and a golden Eagle. The owners Travis/Ashley were great to work with. Easy to find and get too. Will definitely do it again.

Fantastic getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in South Fork Landing. The layout and interior decor are charming and comfortable. We enjoyed seeing and hearing the wildlife, including deer, songbirds, and even turkeys calling from the woods. We're so glad we brought our bicycles to ride through the neighborhood and along the scenic trails. We'll definitely be spending more time in South Fork Landing, Garden Valley, and Crouch.

Idyllic Mountain Retreat

How fitting that while my immortal avatar in the 2004 strategy classic Rome: Total War (the venerable Nicholanus Garcianus) was directing a hasty retreat across the Gallic countryside into the safety of the Alpine mountains (swarms of Gaulish troops hot in his heels), I likewise should find comfort and security in this Idahoan mountain countryside retreat. The views were scenic, the property properly manicured, and the dinner fare more than fair. My wife and I enjoyed our stay, and plan to return.

Nice little get-a-way into the mountains

We had a lovely time in this little get-a-way place. The views were wonderful and the home was just what we wanted as in a VRBO rental. The area is a new build location so there is some construction going on around, but was very quite on the weekends and evenings. We did have rewash all the dishes and silverware as we noticed many of them still had some grease on them from the last guest. Other than that we enjoyed our stay and had some great memories captured as a family.

Lovely home away from home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay in this pretty, clean and quiet 3 bedroom home located just ten minutes from our goddaughters wedding held in nearby Crouch at Sixty Chapel. The king bed was comfy and since we ended up not having any of our adult kids stay with us, we loved having the use of both beautiful bathrooms to get ready for the wedding. The views from the front porch with our morning coffee were even more fun when a huge flock of turkeys cruised by! Didn't use the kitchen or laundry since our trip was so quick so I cannot elaborate except to say the fridge was clean and ready for our few groceries. We would definitely recommend!!

Clean and welcoming

Clean, pleasant house. Sofa and chairs in the living room are not very comfortable for relaxing. No other furnishings in the bunk room means an adult in the room must use a chair for placing anything next to bed. No luggage rack in this room, however, it is understandable because it is meant for children. The cleanliness was very appreciated as well as the of ease of use of the home.Much appreciated having hangers available for clothes No window coverings on the front windows was a bit uncomfortable, even light curtains would be nice. A pleasant stay overall.
