There is a reason the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch has flourished as a vacation retreat for almost eighty years. The living history of the Old West mingles with the solitude and peace of this 1000-acre ranch, offering freedom, breathtaking natural beauty, and a relaxed atmosphere. Surrounded by the largest protected wilderness area in the "lower 48", guests will enjoy full days of outdoor adventures, our authentic lodge and cabins, delicious meals, rejuvenating natural hot springs pool, and plenty of relaxation time. The atmosphere is friendly and casual, and the view from the front porch –well, you just have to experience that for yourself.

This 50-person guest ranch is an ideal homebase to enjoy one of America’s most majestic natural treasures. The Sawtooth Valley is an outdoor enthusiast’s wonderland, with miles of hiking and biking trails, scenic western horseback riding, and countless opportunities for fishing, rafting and exploring the pristine Salmon River.

Backpacker Magazine described the Sawtooth Valley this way: "What would it look like if the Tetons married the Sierra Nevada - and nobody came to the wedding? This is it!"
