Quaint, Quiet, River-Front, Fantastic Sauna & Hot Springs

Beautiful cabin right on the river. Hot springs and sauna were wonderful! Water pressure in the shower was light but everything else was great! Loved the layout and decor in the cabin and the grounds were beautiful as well.

One-of-a-kind experience

This remote and private property was a beautiful location to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We really enjoyed the private hot springs-fed tub and relaxing by the river. The home was well stocked, the owners were helpful and kind, and the decor lent to the charm of a European cottage.

Relaxing Getaway

Amazing location! So beautiful and relaxing… we didn’t want to leave! It is about 20 minutes outside of Ketchum in the sawtooth national forest right on Warm Springs creek rd near Frenchman’s Hot Springs. It was further out than we realized, so it was a bit challenging to find the first time, but worth the drive. Lisa was super nice and it was fun to hear about the history of the place when we arrived. Spring fed hot tub right next to the river was the best! Perfect romantic getaway!

Wonderful escape

This is a very charming log cabin hidden from the road and decorated with old world charm. It is perfect for 2. For a week we had our own covered bridge over a gurgling creek for coffee in the morning and wine in the evening, two natural hot tubs, trails nearby to hike, and trout nearby to catch and release on a fly. We enjoyed delicious meals in Ketchum/Sun Valley as well as picnics on the beautiful property.Lisa and Michael, property owners,were terrific.We can’t wait to return.

Winter getaway

Adorable cottage, off the beaten path. Quiet and peaceful, perfect for just sitting back and relaxing in one of the two natural hot springs hot tubs. We had lots of snow, but I'm sure it's absolutely beautiful in the late spring, early summer with all the flowers!

Magical Getaway

I recently stayed at a charming cottage that was nothing short of perfect and magical. The owners truly paid attention to every detail, making my birthday celebration unforgettable. The cottage itself was beautifully decorated, cozy, and equipped with all the amenities one could wish for. The serene surroundings, coupled with the owners' warm hospitality, created an enchanting atmosphere. This cottage is a hidden gem that I highly recommend for anyone looking to experience a perfect getaway.

Beautiful, peaceful retreat

My husband and I were celebrating our 25th anniversary and couldn’t have chosen a better place to spend a week! Hosts Lisa and Michael are so helpful and the house had lots of thoughtful items available when we arrived. There are natural hot spring hot tubs and a sauna, so plenty of places to relax and enjoy the beautiful river that runs along The edge of the property. We can’t wait to come back!

Our little retreat turned into a second honeymoon due to the incredibly romantic cabin in such a stunningly beautiful setting. Everything far exceeded our expectations. We can't wait to make a return trip and stay longer because this is by far the best vacation rental we've found to date.

Magical

This stay was better than we could've imagined. The photos on the listing do not do it justice. Think quaint little French cottage in the woods-inside the national forest. You have to cross a covered wooden bridge to access the property, and there are tubs near the creek that have hot water pumped directly into them from Frenchman Hot Springs. The owners are very welcoming and give you as much space as you need but check in to see if you need anything. We will definitely try to stay here again when we're in the area or as a special trip. I can't say enough about it. It was the perfect place to quiet my mind and reconnect with nature.
