We had a nice stay! The location is great, the host was very helpful, and our family enjoyed the visit!

We spent a wonderful few days in Stanley staying in "Doc's Lodge" cabin. The location was perfect - right in town, but it felt very quiet and had the gorgeous Valley Creek running through the yard. It's in a gated community, so traffic is very low. After a long day or hiking or fishing, what a joy to sit on the porch and watch the mountains and listen to the creek. Or even dip your feet in the icy water to feel alive! CJ and Doc were very very nice and you can tell they put a lot of heart and love into this cabin. Communication with them was clear and quick, and check in and out was easy. The cabin had all the amenities we needed, although laundry was not available on the property. There are a few rules to respect the property, but totally understandable. All-in-all, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend.

We really enjoyed staying here. It was cozy, loved the porch and the view, loved the location and being right on the creek. We could walk to town (.5 mile) if we wanted to. We could also very clearly hear the outdoor music from the mountain village.
The main drawback for us was that although it does sleep up to 7, we definitely felt cramped with 5 adults in 2 bedrooms and one bathroom, especially with the upstairs being under renovation and not accessible.

CJ and Jeff couldn’t have been better hosts. Cabin was right on the water with exquisite views of the Sawtooths. It was a great vacation

At first little bummed about the fireplace and the dryer, both worked out very well, too hot for the fireplace and it was nice to hang our clothes out side, smelled so good. It’s a great cabin and a beautiful site to sit outside. Close to all the lakes and hiking. Felt like home after a long hike. A little bit off the grid (but worth it ) thank you CJ & Jeff and hope to see you again !

We can’t wait to come back! Owners Jeff and CJ are great and will make sure you are covered. The location is amazing! Kids and I found one of many amazing fishing holes right outside the property. Highly recommend.

Gorgeous, well-appointed house close to downtown Stanley & right on a creek. Hosts were very responsive & gave great advice on local trails, activities, etc. Beds were very comfortable. Only negative for us was lack of access to washer/dryer on property. It’s a pain to spend valuable vacation hours at the laundromat. Otherwise this place is a 10 out of 10.

Doc's Lodge has spectacular mountain views, is river front in a gated community, yet minutes walking (or 1 min driving) from the town center, has 2 bedrooms, and is well suited for a family with (older) kids or 2 couples. Being right in the middle of everything you are close to some awesome restaurants (like Stanley Supper Club or dining at the Sawtooth Hotel), local shops and all the mountain and water activities you want.
The hosts/owners are very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and they live in the cabin next door. I wish we stayed longer and hope to be back soon.

Terrific location, clean and comfortable. Our flight landed in Boise late but the owner met us at 9 pm to show us around.
There were two minor inconveniences. All the bedroom drawers were full, so little place to put clothing. Also no table with chairs for eating, and only room for 3 at the kitchen counter. All the chairs for eating were high stools.
Would still highly recommend, bed and bathroom and living room were very comfortable, porch is unbeatable and Stanley is the best location to access hiking in the Sawtooths. The owners were very gracious.

Our vacation could not have been better! The property is right next to a small creek with gorgeous views of the Sawtooth mountains and the town of Stanley. My adult children were in heaven hiking around Redfish Lake and my husband and I had a fantastic time fly fishing in the nearby creeks. The property owners were very accommodating and responsive to our questions. The property is as beautiful inside as the listing photos show! What I most appreciated about the property was how both the inside and outside spaces were so warm and inviting, and allowed us to gather as a family for a meal or just to enjoy each other along with the peace and quiet.

Our cabin rental completed our amazing trip to the Sawtooth Mountains. Camille is absolutely delightful, responsive, and helpful. The cabin was clean and in a beautiful location (along a creek with a full view of the mountains). A hiking trip is what brought us to Stanley, and we loved being so close to many trailheads in the Sawtooth range--most were 5-15 miles away. I didn't want to leave, but will definitely be back to Idaho at some point, and would certainly stay at this cabin again!

This place is wonderful. The creek runs right past the house and with the views you may think you are in the middle of nowhere however in less then five minutes you are in downtown with all the activity. House appears to be new and has everything you really need. Couldn't ask for a better vacation.

This rental is in the most beautiful setting we’ve ever stayed at . It was difficult to leave for the day to go hiking. Definitely would stay again.

Great property for up to four persons located on the banks of Valley Creek which flows into the Salmon River in Salmon, Idaho. The gated community is a plus for safety reasons. A Robins nest with three babies in it was located off the big windows permitting a bit of wildlife viewing without leaving the cabin. Our only dissapointment was in not being able to use the wood stove or in having access to laundry facilities. Perhaps their future plans for this property will include these options, plus the inclusion of the currently unfinished upstairs bedroom. Owners were most helpful with suggestions for places to eat and fishing spots. Loved our stay here and hope to return again.

Great location! Walkable to downtown but feels remote being on the opposite side of the creek. Breathtaking view of the Sawtooth Mountains. Comfortable beds. Would have been nice to have access to laundry & cleaning stuff to tidy up now & then. It would also have been nice to have a some check out instructions & info about what to do with trash / recyclables.

Perfect location! Fantastic, relaxing views if the Sawtooth Mountains from the house! We spent three wonderful days enjoying Stanley and Redfish Lake in a peaceful, relaxing environment!
