Great cabin in lower Stanley

Nice cabin with three bedrooms and one bath. Everything you need and kitchen is well stocked. Comfortable beds and overall very clean cabin, and close to town, being in lower Stanley. Patio and deck area are off the front of the house, so some highway noise. Great views across the street with the river, horses and cattle grazing. We had a great stay!

Simply Amazing!

My family and I could not have been happier with our stay here! From the beginning when I first booked, until we left yesterday, everything was perfect. In all my years of booking through VRBO, communication with Gitta was the best I’ve ever experienced from any host, anywhere I have ever stayed, She her husband were so helpful with anything we needed as well as giving us suggestions and advice on places to visit around the area. The house was stocked with everything that we could’ve ever needed. And the view from the deck… it’s hard to put into words the beauty that was all around us! I would definitely recommend this cabin to anybody who may be looking to visit Stanley

Best of Stanley

I've been coming to Stanley for 30 years, and there's always been go-to favorite spots in Upper and Lower Stanley to stay—but this new find has easily been the best yet. It’s not just the unbeatable location—it’s the cabin itself. Every detail reflects the authentic Sawtooth experience.Gitta was incredibly accommodating, ensuring everything was in perfect order for our stay. The cabin faces south with stunning views of the Salmon River, bald eagles soaring overhead, and antelope wandering nearby. It’s spacious and thoughtfully designed, with a big equipped kitchen, great bathroom and bedrooms, a large balcony that brings everyone together—especially around the generously sized grill. Everything is spacious and comfortable. The best of the Sawtooth summits are in plain sight. This was a highlight of our trip and is now my new go-to for a stay in Stanley.

Beautiful riverfront property

The views from the porch were spectacular, from the river, the horses in the pasture and the mountains. The location is very close to town, but far enough away to feel secluded. The beds were wonderful

Perfectly located for hiking

Property is a good size for a couple or family. Very close to restaurants and more importantly for us, hiking. MAny hikes within 20 minutes of the house which was great for us as our goal was lots of hiking. Beds were comfortable and kitchen had all necessities for cooking our own meals. Perfect spot!

Beautiful cabin in a great location

Our family (6 adults) spent 3 nights at Gone Fishing. The cabin is extremely nice, well outfitted and very comfortable. Location is excellent. Just far enough away from “downtown” Stanley to be out of the chaos but minutes from Redfish and all the beauty that the Sawtooths offer. Gitta was great with communication and we would definitely stay here again.

Great place with great views

Excellent place in a beautiful location with great views of the Salmon River and Sawtooth Mountains. You'll spend most of your time on the deck! Very comfortable cabin and the owners are very accommodating and friendly. Roomy kitchen and living area with everything you need. Beds and rooms are very comfortable. Not an issue for our group but make sure you're aware it's a single bathroom for the cabin. Also, it is a little out of "downtown" Stanley not right in town if that matters. I would definitely stay here again.

My fiancé and I came to Stanley to have an elopement wedding at Redfish Lake. It was such a wonderful experience at the cabin. Everything was perfect. It was very peaceful with an amazing view of the Salmon River on the deck. We also loved the star gazing at night. We will definitely come back to stay here. Thank you so much Gita for everything!

Great find in Stanley

The house is awesome. The town of Stanley is awesome. What makes this place is the owner, Gitta. She is so super nice easy to communicate with. Her recommendations made our vacation. From hikes and fishing spots to places to eat and drink, all were fabulous. Here's to many more wonderful days (and nights - the stars from her place are stunning) in Stanley in our future!
