Great place to relax between wedding festivities! A lil further off the main road than I anticipated, but otherwise great place!

We all enjoyed our stay at the cabin- just wish the hot tub had been filled prior to our arrival. And my daughter suggests that you sharpen the ax. But I would definitely recommend to friends/family.

My two friends and I have been taking our kids on an annual camping trip for over 10 years. This year we decided to try and find a place where we could get away from the crowds at the campgrounds, and also give the dads a break from dealing with all of the gear. We could not have chosen a better option than these cabins!
Everything is exactly as described. We were very comfortable at all times and you really feel like you are on another planet. It's quiet, peaceful, and beautiful.
This is a summer trip, so for our group the close proximity to Lake Roosevelt was key. We spent our days relaxing by the lake and our evenings at the cabins cooking, exploring, and playing games.
At night, we all slept wonderfully after hours of stargazing.
The host was very accomodating and easy to communicate with the one time we thought we needed something (we didn't...it was there).

Everything was as described and checking in was a breeze. If you are looking for an escape from your busy life or a family spot to vacation this is an excellent one. My children loved playing in the near by creek and exploring the surrounding trails and wildlife. The electric single burner and grill make preparing meals a breeze for everyone. The front porch is great for enjoying your morning coffee. Do be prepared for a long dirt road to the cabin though! Overall an amazing and peaceful stay!

We loved staying at these cabins. We hadca large group and had no issues at all. Our kids, ages from 4 to 22 enjoyed exploring and were reluctant to leave.
Jonathan was very responsive and helpful. We will most likely stay again.

This is the 3rd or 4th time ive been to Blackhorse Canyon and i will be back again. Jonathan is an excellent host, kind, gracious and gemerous.
Everything is comfortableiand in great shape.
If you're coming as a hunter or hunting group, there's a plethora of animals. Elk, deer, turkey, bear, cats and more. They work hard to make it an attractive place for wildlife in the multiple food plots.
Thanks again Jonathan and see you again next time.

This was our second time staying here. We stayed for four days in December. It was really wonderful and exactly as we remembered! Very scenic and cozy and a great way to relax at the end of a hectic year. We mostly stayed at the cabin, sharing meals and talking and occasionally walking near the cabin. In a non-snowy time of year, we might have brought mini bikes, the property offers lots of opportunities for exploration. There is enough internet to check email or browse online but if you want to watch movies, bring DVDs or download them beforehand (we did the latter). I really appreciated that even with heavy snow during a couple of days, the roads were kept plowed and clear enough to drive in our 4WD truck (you will probably need AWD/4WD if you stay during lots of snow though :) ). One thing to note is the power went out a couple of times. One time might’ve been me (turned up a space heater) and one time was some sort of system glitch. It’s not a big deal (the wood stove provides the heat and the owner fixed it quickly both times) but if you have a real need for consistent power (such as maybe a medical device), be aware of this and bring a backup power source.

It was to hot, the cabin doesn’t have ac or something like that only have a fan in the ceiling,
The hot water for bathing runs out very quickly,
and the light went out at 10:00 in the morning. 😞

Beautiful mountain getaway
Amazing property with a lot to discover and enjoy! It was awesome having a parents cabin and a kids bunk house all right next to each other. The kids loved playing in the creek and hiking! The cabin and property were very quiet and we felt like we had the whole mountain to ourselves even though the owners are close and willing to help if we needed anything. The only complaint we had is the WiFi is spotty at best, we didn’t go for the WiFi so it wasn’t a huge issue for us but just something to note.

Our stay
Lovely location. Clean and charming cabin. Only thing missing was the stove. May have missed that detail. Would have planned a different breakfast menu.

Perfection
This was exactly what I was looking for. I live in a city and I wanted to unplug and unwind for my 40th birthday celebration. We had no service and limited WiFi, which forced my kiddos to also unplug. We absolutely loved the "hot tub" took us a minute to figure out where to get the water from, but once we did it was where we spent most of our time.
Splitting our own wood was a workout, but I am proud I got pretty good at it. A lot of the wood was still too knew and wet so was not splitting, luckily there were some bigger pieces that were more dry.
We had the property all to ourselves, next time we will have to bring ATV's or quads...but it was so awesome! We will definitely be booking with them again.

Great getaway..
Great hunting location. The cabin has all the modern amenities. The owner was responsive and provided great detail of the whole ranch.. Road signs in the middle of the forest is a great touch. Plenty of wild life to watch…

Great secluded getaway in the forest
Absolutely beautiful property, quiet and very private. Wood fired hot tub was fun and the kids loved looking for rocks and frogs around the ponds. The cabin had everything we needed for 3 great days away. And the trout in the ponds were eager to take a dry fly! Lots of fun even in the heat, we'll be back!

Enjoyed being off the grid
Cabin and bunk house powered by solar and hydro, with fresh, potable water enabled us to relax in this remote, off the grid location. Owners were very responsive. Motorbikes: the last 2 miles are gravel but we took it easy and had no problems. Nearest gas / store is 12 miles away in Fruitland, so plan accordingly.

The property manager was very friendly and accommodating. Any small hiccup we had in check-in was remedied right away. The location was beautiful. Excellent for a few days to get away from it all. Wifi was nice to have for emergencies. We brought our 3 year old, she loved the toys and the swing that came with the cabin. We really appreciate that small addition. The beautiful stream, wildflowers, and many varieties of butterflies also kept her very busy. Air conditioning would have been nice, I would have seen staying longer than 3 nights with that. That would be my only request here. We knew that going in though.

Even nicer than pictured!
We had a lovely time at Jonathan's cabins! Will certainly be returning. Nicely remote, breathtaking views, incredible starry nights, very comfortable mattresses. As an aside, there is Verizon service there, but no AT&T or TMobile, however the wifi was very reasonable for the basics if you are so inclined. Wood and propane was provided as well!

Pros: beautiful view, quiet space, felt like a real cabin experience. Lots of wildlife around.cons: jacuzzi takes ~7 hrs to heat up manually with wood. Electricity is limited to the capacity of generator, we were able to sustain it by limiting lights and only using stove oven as heater.

Just What We Needed
We had a blast at this property. It was super relaxing. The owner was incredibly responsive throughout our stay. When we ran out of firewood, a giant pile of nicely stacked wood just seemed to appear! The hot tub was a highlight. The kids loved splashing around in it. We also enjoyed finding rocks in the creek.
Tips for others -
Basic groceries are fairly close but if you want fresh stuff for grilling then bring it with you.
