"This place is absolutely a hidden gym. I am from Texas and drove over 1740 miles in two days couldn’t find a hotel or motel in Boise, but I found this quaint little place. up in the mountains off the beaten path, and it was absolutely gorgeous. The scenery was nice. The staff was amazing. The place was so beautifully done. I would recommend this to anybody who’s passing through especially if you ride motorcycles with the terms and stuff. I wish I would’ve brought mine because the view is amazing. Absolutely worth the stay in the drive. Just a gorgeous cute little set up all the way around."
