About this house rental

Welcome to Lava Family Inn and Spiritual River Sanctuary with over a mile of river frontage. We offer more than just a beautiful home and surroundings to sleep in.

Lava Family Inn is located just minutes from Downtown Lava Hot Springs with swimming, tubing, parks, restaurants, shopping, grocery stores, museums, etc. If you are a skier, Pebble Creek Ski Resort is also just minutes away.

Our property is a fully furnished, 7 bedroom, 5 ½ bath, vacation home. Ideal for large or multiple family reunions, retreats, weddings, and receptions. Perfect backdrop for family photos. The home is very secluded, with surrounding vegetation, grassy yard, small pond and a stream that run through, with wildlife to be seen almost daily, especially in the mornings and evenings.

Located in Southeast Idaho-- an hour and forty five minute drive north from Salt Lake City. Surrounded by mountains of public land with trails that are perfect for hikes, walks, biking, dirt biking, four wheeling and horse back riding. Portnuef River is located just below the property with sportsman access for excellent trout fishing. The river has several watering holes for swimming close by, or just watching its many waterfalls. Floating the Portnuef River at Lava Hot Springs is both entertaining and relaxing -especially during the hot Summer months.

Lava Hot Springs is not the only hot springs to visit in Idaho. 46 miles East of our family home, you should visit Soda Springs, Idaho one of the worlds only captive geysers! Now capped and controlled by a timer, the geyser erupts every hour on the hour reaching heights of 100 feet year round.

Our Vacation Home sleeps up to 28 in beds with plenty of extra room for air mattresses, sleeping bags or cots.

We loved our time here. The house was perfect for our needs and the size of our family! We especially loved the yard with the wild animals coming in to visit each day. The house was clean, the yard is immaculate. It was a little ways from Lava Hot Springs, but not too far. We liked being by ourselves up on the hillside! I would highly recommend a stay here

We absolutely loved being at the beautiful, peaceful, private river sanctuary. The family loved playing and swimming in and around the rock waterfalls. Kids rode tubes down the falls. We had paddle boards and kayaks too. The house was fantastic and accommodated 38 of us. My only complaint is the basement is outdated and needs a good facelift. The yard is shady and private. Great place to host a reunion. The house is better than the pictures show it to be (except the basement rooms) and there are bigger beds and extra mattresses than what is listed. Joel was super helpful through texts and calls to help me know what was available so I could assign families the right size rooms. He is friendly and great to work with. The master bed is unbelievably huge!

This was the perfect property for our youth camp! We spent most of the time outside on the beautiful shaded, property. There were so many beds and places to sleep for everyone. The pantry was large to keep all of our food. It was perfect, and I want to come back for a family reunion!

This was an ideal set-up for our family reunion of 34 people. We loved the large kitchen and large group gathering areas. The upstairs was a little warm (it was the middle of July), but the rest of the house was very comfortable. The outdoor area was lovely with plenty of grassy areas and shade. Communication with the owner was easy, immediate, and clear.

Had 36 family members staying for a reunion. Lots of room and Kids enjoyed the size of the kitchen. Enough places available so if someone needed some alone time they could get away for a few min. the 10 x 10 bed in the master bedroom was a little silly but thats ok. You could tell you were in a basement when you were down there. over all it was good. The host texted me a couple of times a day to see how things were going, a little bit invasive for me.

So many good things about this home. The main floor and upstairs were gorgeous and clean and spacious. Felt very secluded and comfortable to let the little ones play inside or out. We had an extended family gathering with 29 people including children ages 3-17. There was plenty of space for sleeping and meals. The basement rooms were not the favorites- definitely needs some updating, (mildew smell, poorly lit, ac room was creepy as anything, and the basement shower head has multiple leaks and sprays everywhere). but we were comfortable enough and can’t complain because the price was great compared to similar properties. 20-30 minutes to lava hot springs which has great activities for all ages. Lots of wildlife including ducks, turkeys, red tailed hawks (nest on the property with babies in spring of 2024), and lots of other birds first thing in the morning. Also domestic bunnies were fun for the kids.

We had a staff retreat. Beautiful ranch house with plenty of space, quiet and relaxing property. Great kitchen, numerous decks, and a great big room for relaxing and meeting. Within thirty minutes of places to eat in Pocatello or close by Lava Hot Springs.

There was plenty of room for family to eat, sleep and play games. We are a skiing family and it was so close to the resort.and not to far to take little's home when they were done with half day. It wasn't to far to enjoy a night soaking at Lava. Great trip!!

Thing’s happened when we first arrived. The situation was bad from the beginning but after we found out the owner was in an accident the day before then we switched our minds from frustration to understanding. This was a good home and a big enough home for a large group. Turkeys and ducks were fun for the kids. Lots of pros. The only negative this was no WiFi and that the dish for tv didn’t work upstairs for the wind down times. Overall a good experience.

We started here too celebrate my dad's 60th birthday and it was great! Everyone had their own rooms and there was plenty of space to spread out and not feel like everyone was on top of each other. The master bed was a surprise! We've never seen a bed that big! The theme song was "why don't you just meet me in the middle" 😂 The owner was great to work with and very responsive when we realized we were missing some sheets for one of the extra beds. When he's told us there were turkeys on the property we could feed, we didn't realize there were that many! So fun to see them running around the yard! A few little quirks about the house, the hot water had a sulphur smell to it, but overall a great place to stay and enjoy some really good family time! No Internet, but we were there to hang out anyway so it was great!

This location was perfect for our family of grandparents, parents, children and grandchildren. The home is set-up for this type of arrangement beautifully. Kitchen/dining is amazing and beautiful. The yard is relaxing and beautiful. Grandkids want us all to live there forever.

Lots of room. The littles loved the ducks and the play area. Owner was very responsive. I would suggest to have AC running well before guests arrive. The first night, my family that slept in two of the bedrooms were so warm, it was hard to sleep. And yes they had the provided fans running. As long as the master bedroom was set at 68, the rooms upstairs were nice. No one wanted to sleep in the basement and fortunately we didn't really need it. That area could use an upgrade. Found mouse droppings in the kitchen cabinets. Probably need to deep clean the kitchen. It was also difficult to get a hot shower, no matter how we spaced them out. Overall, it wasn't bad.

This place is great size for big family gatherings. Beautiful yard and surroundings. Plenty of sleeping room and places to hang out and enjoy those you are with. Great proximity to Pocatello and not too far from Lava Hot Springs. It has Dish network for TV but we never even turned the TV's on. I would suggest bringing your camping chairs because there is not much seating on the decks but what a great place, especially this time of year. So green and beautiful. Our family has it on the list to return to.

The property was private and spacious, we had ample room for yard games and the kids especially enjoyed feeding the ducks at the pond. I set up a slip-n-slide on the downward slope of the yard which was perfect for the kids to have fun sliding down to the bottom of the slide. Some of the things in the home were not working and needed to be repaired, fridge ice maker and master bedroom tub. The basement bedrooms probably should be remodeled. My daughters wouldn't use them but the boys were ok sleeping there. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there and the close proximity to Lava Hot Springs made for a short drive. There was plenty of room to spread out and find your own private space. Everyone enjoyed the message chair. This property is great for family gatherings. I would stay here again.

Had a fun stay here. The kids loved the time in the sanctuary, and the home was large enough for all of us. As mentioned previously, this property is at a good price, but there is a per person charge for each in your party over 13. Karl Malone bed was.. special.

Super fun place to stay for large family gatherings. Bedrooms were clean, I believe 13 total beds. The massage chair was super fun! Turkeys and deer everywhere. Fun to feed the ducks in the pond. Kitchen, bar, and dining room was super spacious. Master bedroom was bigger than anything I've ever stayed in. The master bed was like three times the size of a king bed! Nothing negative to say. Close enough to enjoy Lava.
