Cozy studio in gorgeous Salmon with AC, WiFi, Hot tub

10/10 Excellent

"Last minute decision and they were extremely helpful to assure we could get access to the house and any questions we had. Used to hot tubs a nice night!"

Get away from it all

10/10 Excellent

"This property was exactly what we hoped for and more!! For a couple animal lovers like me and my son, the bonus of the dogs, cats, goats, chickens and ducks was amazing. Unfortunately it rained a lot of our visit so we didn’t get to utilize the backyard and creek hangout spaces but the coziness of the well-appointed cabin more than made up for any weather. My only regret was my wife and daughter not being able to enjoy this beautiful property. Cleve and Jessie were very friendly as was their nephew and Jesse’s mom who we had the opportunity to meet. I thought this property overall was one of the best values for the cost. Highly recommend!!!"

Lemhi Shoshone Cabin, Greyhouse Vacation Rentals

10/10 Excellent

"Lemhi Shoshone Cabin was a cute cabin with an amazing view and great value! We were very comfortable there. We only had two in the cabin but the loft room would be great for older kids (see spiral staircase in pictures). BJ and Brit (caretakers) were extremely friendly and helpful. Sheets and towels were provided. One note of the laundry and hot tub - they are on property, but not exclusive to this cabin. The cabin did have a private fire pit, but be sure to check the fire hazard before utilizing it. 😀 We would 100% rent this cabin again if we return to the beautiful mountains of Idaho!"
