Great little spot!
This little cabin was perfect for a stay in town. Warm, cozy, and all the amenities you need. That fold out sofa couch is hands down the most comfortable one I’ve ever slept on. Hosts were terrific! 10/10

Cute, cozy cabin
Our group of four stayed for two nights at the cabin as part of a long road trip. We were thrilled by the town of Challis and all the friendly people we met in town. Our hosts left great recommendations for the area. We ate at the Real Deal Smokehouse and checked out the Bayhorse Ghost Town nearby- they both were wonderful! The cabin was a bit snug for four adults, but the beds were comfortable (including the pull-out couch) and we had plenty of bedding/towels for our stay. We were grateful to have a coffee pot to use in the morning! We would recommend this as a great spot for couples. Overall, it was a nice stay and our hosts were friendly and responsive.

Escape to Challis!
Super clean and cute place! Excellent communication with Eli when we experienced a technical internet difficulty the first night. He graciously put us up in his other rental 0.1 mile away and promptly fixed the issue the next day. The hideaway was darling and perfect for us to celebrate our anniversary. This being our longest vacation is 2 years, it fit the bill. Challis is such a beautiful place, rich in outdoor activities as well as history. My only suggestion is to bring a sun shade as the backyard has no protection from the sun and it can get hot. Thank you for a marvelous 5 nights!
