Great place with great views

Excellent place in a beautiful location with great views of the Salmon River and Sawtooth Mountains. You'll spend most of your time on the deck! Very comfortable cabin and the owners are very accommodating and friendly. Roomy kitchen and living area with everything you need. Beds and rooms are very comfortable. Not an issue for our group but make sure you're aware it's a single bathroom for the cabin. Also, it is a little out of "downtown" Stanley not right in town if that matters. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfectly located for hiking

Property is a good size for a couple or family. Very close to restaurants and more importantly for us, hiking. MAny hikes within 20 minutes of the house which was great for us as our goal was lots of hiking. Beds were comfortable and kitchen had all necessities for cooking our own meals. Perfect spot!

Beautiful riverfront property

The views from the porch were spectacular, from the river, the horses in the pasture and the mountains. The location is very close to town, but far enough away to feel secluded. The beds were wonderful

Beautiful cabin in a great location

Our family (6 adults) spent 3 nights at Gone Fishing. The cabin is extremely nice, well outfitted and very comfortable. Location is excellent. Just far enough away from “downtown” Stanley to be out of the chaos but minutes from Redfish and all the beauty that the Sawtooths offer. Gitta was great with communication and we would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful cabin

My fiancé and I came to Stanley to have an elopement wedding at Redfish Lake. It was such a wonderful experience at the cabin. Everything was perfect. It was very peaceful with an amazing view of the Salmon River on the deck. We also loved the star gazing at night. We will definitely come back to stay here. Thank you so much Gita for everything! We loved the white wine you left us 😊

Great find in Stanley

The house is awesome. The town of Stanley is awesome. What makes this place is the owner, Gitta. She is so super nice easy to communicate with. Her recommendations made our vacation. From hikes and fishing spots to places to eat and drink, all were fabulous. Here's to many more wonderful days (and nights - the stars from her place are stunning) in Stanley in our future!

Great place

We enjoyed our stay at Gitta's property. She allowed us to book it far in advance for our elopement, which I greatly appreciated. It is conveniently located near Stanley, and it has all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay in the Sawtooths. The view from the porch is so pretty too!

We stayed for the weekend for my Brother's wedding and the cabin comfortably sleeps 6 if you're willing to share a bathroom. I'd highly recommend this space with only a short drive to many locations and a beautiful view to wake up to. Thanks for the delightful weekend!

Best in the Sawtooths

We were so impressed with this home! It was immaculate and well laid out. The owners thought of everything, all amenities including laundry facilities which were so welcome after backpacking! A bottle of wine and chocolate welcomes you in the large kitchen. The bed was really comfortable. There are two decks for eating and stargazing in this Dark Sky reserve, where you can clearly see the Milky Way. The cows roaming across the street are so relaxing, The host was very available for questions and suggestions.
