Activities

Looking to explore the country on horseback? Look no further. We have stables to accommodate your stock onsite, with acres of fenced pastures and corals. Saddle up and begin your adventure directly from the property.

​

The East Fork of the Salmon River and the Salmon River proper offer some of the best fishing in Idaho. Steelhead and trout are in abundance for both the fly fisherman and the spinning rod angler. Step off the Lodge porch straight to the river, or book a guided trip. Jimmy Smith Lake is a high-desert lake great for family fishing, and a favorite ice-fishing destination, as are Bayhorse Lakes.

Connect with the universe and marvel at the vastness and beauty of the night sky from the lodge or visit the Central Idaho Dark Sky Reserve (CIDSR). Sporting some of the darkest skies in the lower 48, you have the opportunity to see the sky in a way most of the U.S. cannot.

Explore the great outdoors and get your heart pumping on local mountain biking trails. Whether you are advanced or just a beginner, there are multiple trails nearby, all of which offer breathtaking views and an exhilarating way to connect with nature.

Looking for a way to relax and unwind? Sunbeam Hot Spring and Slate Creek Hot Spring are two of the many hot springs found nearby. These natural hot springs offer a unique and rejuvenating experience that can soothe tired muscles, calm the mind, and refresh the spirit. 

Hunting in Central Idaho offers a diverse opportunity for big and small game alike. The rugged terrain provides habitat for elk, mule- and white-tail deer, bighorn sheep, pronghorn, bears and mountain lions, as well as several varieties of birds such as chukars and quail. The area is a sought-after destination for outfitter-led hunts or for hunters fortunate enough to get tags on their own.

Looking for some excitement? Include rafting the Salmon River in your western adventure. Whether you go through a guide service or are a seasoned rafter, this is a perfect way to create memories and bond with friends and family in a thrilling and unforgettable way.

Looking for an adrenaline-pumping outdoor adventure?Head up East Fork Road to challenging mountain trails in this off-road mecca. Or try nearby Spar Canyon or Road Creek for less technical riding on gravel roads that wind up the valleys into the wilderness.
