About this property

Spectacular Riverfront guest house with unparalleled river & mountain views!

This guest house/guest cottage is located on a 5 acre lush property right along the banks of the Salmon river. Fish right there if you desire! The views across the river to the magnificent Beaverhead mountain range are absolutely stunning! Photos don't do it justice.
Wallace creek also flows through the north end of the property at most times of the year and there is a picnic table out there by the creek to dine at. Abundant wildlife frequent the property including deer, turkey, eagle, osprey, geese, ducks, hawks, owls, osprey, heron, and many species of birds. Its a virtual paradise!
River and mountain views from ALL windows.
(1) spacious bedroom with queen size bed (with river view), (1) full bathroom, a cozy living room with super comfy furniture and sleeper sofa for 1 additional adult. Also has a fully appointed kitchen with river views from the window. Step right onto the patio from the living room - the river is literally steps away. Again there are gorgeous views of the Beaverhead mountain range (which is the Continental Divide) complete with stunning sunrises and sunsets.
NOTE: this 850 Sq ft guest cottage is located behind the garage (on the river side) and next to the main house where your hosts (Jan and Tim) live most of the summer. We are very mindful and respectful of your privacy, however!
This amazing property is located less than 10 minutes from shopping and dining in downtown Salmon. We welcome your visit. We know you will love it!

Rivers Edge

THE most beautiful, serene, and comfortable house by the river! The sunrises, sunsets and moon rising (that Jan pointed out to me!), were spectacular! The grounds of this property are immaculate and absolutely gorgeous in the Fall! The Guest House was perfect for my daughters and I. Cozy, everything you could possibly need and a sanity saver! Looking forward to our next visit!

TRANQUILITY-BEAUTY-PEACE

My Son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay there! The property is gorgeous, and the "River" is clear and captivating! We spent hours watching it. The town of Salmon, Idaho, is an old town, and there is a nice grocery store and Ace Hardware! We got our groceries at the Save-on, then grilled our steaks on the outside grill! We stayed in the guest house right next to the main house, and it had everything that we needed for our stay! We had the whole property to ourselves. There was a little buck deer and some does playing in the yard in the morning! Total quietness and not a soul in sight! Check-in was easy, and check out the same. Hope to return someday!

About the host

Hosted by Jan Rosenthal

Host profile image
We, (Tim Barca and Jan Rosenthal) used to live in Eagle, Colorado, but made this special haven our summer home recently. We live in Tesuque, outside of Santa Fe, NM in the winter & short term rent our beautiful 2 bedroom/2 bath casita there from June 1st- mid November. We absolutely love Salmon and the surrounding area and feel so very fortunate to have found this most special riverside retreat. It’s beyond fabulous!. Can't wait to share it with you! Looking forward to having you as our guests.

Why they chose this property

Best cottage in Salmon that is located RIGHT on the river...there is no comparison to any hotels or other cottages! Total privacy and seclusion....on 5 lush acres with spectacular mountain & river views and wildlife. The neighborhood is fabulous-it’s the best in Salmon in our eyes!

What makes this property unique

It is right on the Salmon river plus has a gorgeous running creek on the north end of the property. It also has 5 lush acres, many mature trees, wildlife galore... and it’s very private, yet only 10-15 minutes to town~you see no neighbors. It’s so very special!
