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.

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.

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.

We have stayed on this property before. Great location and the cabin is well kept and has everything we need. It would be nice to have a bit of a choice for TV for later at night but that is a minor detail.

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!

Cabin by the river

This was a wonderful experience, the cabin was very nice and right on the river. It had an amazing deck with a great view. My husband did fly fishing right out front and had a good time, he caught several cut throat trout. It was very relaxing and would definitely recommend it to anyone. Would definitely do it again.

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!

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.

It was great!

This is a great cabin, that has all you could possibly need. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace, as well as in the comfy chairs in the living room. The kitchen is abundantly equipped, there's speedy wifi, the beds are great (well, we tested only one queen bed). I recommend this to anyone! Oke, there is a huge satelite dish in the garden, but no satelite TV, but I don't complain... Thanks you owners, for letting us stay.

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!

The property is Great, amazing view! The house is well maintained and has everything you need for a comfortable stay away from home. The only black mark on this property is the neighbors. We are responsible adults in our 50’s, who have spent our entire lives serving the public in fire & rescue. We came to Idaho for a break from the stress of COVID & MPLS riots, only to get a call from the owner to say the neighbors were complaining about us-Not for the loud, late night drinking parties but because we drove 20 MPH instead of 15 down the road, because we parked a horse trailer in the ditch for 2 hours from 9:00 pm to 11:00 pm as our friends joined us for dinner ( blocking NO ONE at that time of night) and lastly because WE almost hit the neighbor who mindlessly darted out right in front of US on her lawn mower. In a world that truly has shown us nothing but horror, ugliness and death lately, my only wish is that people could find some compassion. Compassion for their neighbors, compassion for complete strangers that they know nothing about or their circumstances. PS the neighbors may want to talk to the other neighbor who drives the Chevy Truck 45 MPH down their road. He ran us off the road because our 20 MPH was not fast enough for him.

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!!!!
