Off the beaten path

I didn’t realize how far out in the wilderness this place was. And if spiders don’t scare you, you should be fine. It was big enough for our group.

Rustic and cozy

We had an amazing time staying at this cute cabin! We loved the rustic, authentic cabin feel. And the location was perfect, close drive to the reservoir! The only thing that was hard was the heat, it was very hot due to the summer temps. The fans were helpful but if you are someone who struggles sleeping in hot temperatures, I would bring extra fans and be more prepared. All in all we would definitely stay here again!

Old Authentic Cabin

A unique place to stay if you want to experience an authentic log cabin. Lots of room and in a beautiful setting. Not for everyone. Many cobwebs and didn’t feel the cleanest. Getting to the house can be a challenge as the road is rough gravel. Trees weren’t trimmed so they scraped the top of our van. And, for the price you pay you shouldn’t have to trek your garbage out to find a trash bin. We paid the extra $20.00 to have the cleaning person take. Just seemed odd and inconvenient. Property manager is very responsive and if you’re looking for a place away from it all without frills, this could be perfect for you.

Amazing getaway

Stayed at Tanya's cabin as a base for exploring Tetons and other parts. A rare opportunity to take in the beauty of her property, the river, and Swan Valley. Cabin is the perfect mix of rustic, modern amenities and visits by wildlife. Tanya made us feel at home and was very responsive to questions after arriving. Will be visiting again.

Loved our stay!

The house was in a wonderful location, across from the river with wildlife present (we saw deer and bald eagles). The views were stunning!!! The house was incredibly clean and very well stocked. We absolutely loved it and would look for it when we plan on staying in the area again.

Thanks for sharing!

We had a great getaway with family, it was interesting to stay in a rental home/cabin where there is obviously someone living there when it is not being rented. there was very little room in the fridge for the food items we had and we had to keep our things in the coolers we brought. All in all we had an enjoyable time and the owners of the cabin were great to work with and responded quickly with any questions we had. Thank you for sharing with us.

Good cabin experience

This is a great place in the mountains. We drove into Jackson Hole and Grand Tetons from there, which wasn’t a bad drive. There was plenty of room for my family of 5 to spread out. The only downside was the drive in from the west was pretty bad - about 6 miles of winding gravel road. I’d highly recommend coming in and leaving from the east - only about 2 miles of gravel road and much flatter. Other than that, it was a good place to stay in the mountains.

Exactly what we were looking for!

Better than the listing and such an amazing location! We honeymooned with all of our kids and we fit well. The kitchen is stocked with anything you could possibly need and more. We were worried that one bathroom wouldn't be enough but it's worked out just fine! The bedrooms are decent size and nicer than pictured. The kitchen, dining, living area and patio are also MUCH larger than pictured and we had PLENTY of space for 7 adults and one small kiddo. Comfortable beds, plenty of linens and towels. Lots of games and books. This cabin has a location that is unbeatable. Close to Irwin and groceries, gas, ice cream. Only a 20 minute (beautiful) drive to Palisades Reservoir, walking distance to the Snake River and only an hour to Idaho Falls. We drove 45 minutes to Bear World and less than an hour and a half to Jackson Hole. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful, rustic location. The only small note is that the cabin is definitely lived in, as far as owners belongings-made it a little tough to find space to put our belongings on our stay. We are already planning our trip for next year.

Good for Outdoor Activities

Booking the cabin was easy and Tonia was responsive and easy to work with. This is a rustic cabin which had most of the modern amenities you would fine in your own home. It's located steps away from the Snake River and is great for those looking for active outdoor adventures or a fishing expedition. There is lots of room to spread out in the great rooms and on the deck. We were met by a dead mouse next to the fridge when we first entered the cabin so be ready for encounters with wildlife both inside and outside the cabin. Because the owners use the property a lot of their personal belongs (clothing, toiletries, kitchen supplies, etc.) remain at the property. It felt like we had very little storage in the dressers and closets for the items we brought. From a culinary standpoint, there is no reason to bring anything other than perishables you want to eat. Any spice, condiment, utensil is available in the kitchen. In our opinion, this property should be classified as renting an occupied home rather than a vacation rental. There's lots of sleeping room available but with only one bathroom, having more than two couples or a single family with a few children could be challenging. Also, the owners need to come up with a solution for trash disposal since the dumpster option at the river bridge is no longer an option. Overall, we had great weather and enjoyed our three-night stay.

Great cabin location if you are hunting, fishing, or want to stay somewhere peaceful!

The cabin is in convenient location if you are wanting to access the snake river or national forest. The cabin amenities kept us comfortable during our trip. The kitchen was well stocked in case you forgot something. My family and I enjoyed our stay at the cabin for our hunting/fishing trip. I would love to stay there again one day!
