Picturesque Lakefront Property for Your Next Mountain Escape

Idaho is home to some of the greatest fishing in the country.

We love this family cabin

I think we just finished our fourth stay at this cabin, and we have booked it for next summer. That should say it all. We love the location and the spaciousness of it, and the fantastic kitchen with 2 refrigerators, 2 dishwashers, 2 ovens, and a great supply of appliances, cookware and dishes. We were pleasantly surprised this year to see some very old furniture replaced. It's fantastic and was such an upgrade to the family gathering area. Our one and only complaint is that we would like to see the mattresses upgraded. The property manager was wonderful. We love this place.

Beautiful Place to Host a Family Reunion

We LOVED this beautiful home. It provided everything we needed to house our family of 18 (9 adults, 9 children) from Sweden, Wash DC and California. We love the lake and dock for water recreation and it was close enough to visit Yellowstone. This was the first time since Covid that we could all be together and this well equipped property exceeded our expectations. We had a wonderful time.

Best experience on VRBO

We have been to Island Park 3 times now and this is hands-down the best cabin ever. The rooms were larger than the pictures and the great room held 28 people all at once. This made our family gatherings possible. The entryway, hallways and stairwells are extra wide and generous. The kitchen is stocked with everything you might possibly need for cooking for a large family. The furniture and supplies are all in great condition. There are 2 washers and 3 dryers. Outside there are many lawn chairs to move around as well as nice deck chairs to watch the gorgeous view. The back lawn area is small and could use a good mowing and pickup when we were there. The dock worked well for a boat and sea-Doos. Thank you for creating such a marvelous place for families to gather.

Family reunion

We had a family of 20 at this cabin. The cabin was clean and stocked with all the necessities a big family might need. The kitchen accommodations were fantastic, the game closet and game room impressive, and the views were breathtaking! Thank you for an amazing few days building happy family memories!

Favorite summer vacation home

This is our 4th vacation at this rental, and we feel like it’s home. Having a private dock and being able to leave your boat in the water instead of having to take it out after each use is ideal. The beach with its fire ring makes the evenings great. The fully equipped kitchen is terrific and is the best kitchen we have encountered; they have thought of everything you need.

Wonderful stay with entire family of 20

We all loved our week on Bill’s Island. From the perfectly stocked kitchen, to the very spacious living room, dining room, kitchen bar area, to the play room for small kids, to the ping pong, pool, and foosball table room, there was a space for everyone to enjoy. The lake with a very nice dock was also a huge plus. Only one minor negative was the aging black peeling furniture in the home theater room. Didn’t bother me, but my wife thought it should be replaced. The towels, and sheets were awesome. So many nice thoughtful touches. Overall we loved our week.

We have been staying at Jefferson Lodge in Island Park, Idaho for the last 14 years, every summer. It is perfect for my family. It is very peaceful and has so many ammenities. Kids to adults can spend time visiting, or in the reservoir, playing games or just relaxing. Thanks for such a great facility.

Incredible 5 night family reunion

The pictures can’t show the warmth and attention to detail of this vacation home. We stayed with our 5 adult children and their families and would have loved to stay longer. Everyone spent time in the reservoir in the back yard, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding or floating in tubes. We loved preparing food together and eating in the massive kitchen. We had a family movie night together in the theatre room as well as played ping pong, pool and football in the game room. The little ones loved the toy room as well. Our party of 21 had plenty of room. We almost regretted leaving for our planned trip into Yellowstone. Thank you For allowing us to make such great family memories!

Jefferson Lodge

We stayed here over Labor Day weekend and loved it! The house and location are beautiful. We ended up with 18 people from 18 months to 66 years old. There was plenty of room and something to do for everyone. We have stayed at several homes over the last few years and this was definitely the best stocked kitchen and had the most room to gather. The owners were great to work with and even left us a welcome gift. We would love to stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Jace Kellogg

Host profile image
The Wilcox family is native to Rexburg, ID and has enjoyed the Island Park area for many years. We love coming to Island Park for the great getaway that it is, offering lakeside enjoyment with the comforts of home. When we come to the cabin, some of our favorite things to do are boating, hiking, fishing, snowmobiling, and just spending time with the family!

Why they chose this property

Island Park (Bills Island in particular) is a great vacation spot, which is why we bought these properties when we did. They are remote enough to help us feel as though we are getting away from the world. However, we are close enough to other larger areas, so that shopping and emergencies are taken care of!

What makes this property unique

The lodge is a great place to get away for the weekend or to plan as an extended stay. With all the comforts of home and the magnificent kitchen, large groups can be accomodated easily. We know it's nice having some peace and quiet as well as play areas for the kids, so we love that the lodge has multiple entertainment rooms and sitting areas on each floor.
