About this property

The cabin sits nestled in a valley that is very beautiful. The cabin was originally built as a part of the Dredge Camp, housing the workers of the Yankee Fork Dredge and their families. Our cabin is one of the largest cabins and the cabin of the "Dredge Master". Also on site is the Gold Shack, where every ounce of gold pulled out by the dredge was melted down and stored. You can tour the dredge while you are there to see the history behind it.

The summer activities of this area are endless. Local Rafting company’s taking people on the Salmon River daily. Two large lakes, Redfish Lake and Stanley Lake are beautiful Lake that you can boat on and spend the day on the beaches,10-20 miles away. Also, the second or third weekend in July they hold an all-day event with shoot outs, food and Melodramas. And while you are there, they will teach you how to pan for gold. It is a great experience for all ages.

This is a historic cabin located north of Stanley Idaho in the Yankee Fork Valley. Cabin has been updated over the years, but we have attempted to keep the rustic cabin feel. There is a fire pit where you can sit out and enjoy smores and the beautiful clear stars and skies. Great places to relax.

On the main level of the cabin is a full stocked kitchen, outdoor grill fand griddle. Fire pit, dining room, living room with wood stove, bathroom, 2 bedrooms with queen beds. Upstairs is a large room which is setup as a sleeping loft with four full beds and three twin beds. Room for 15 people in beds...more if you use air mattresses.

NOT CLEAN

This might be fine for friends and family?...maybe??? I personally wouldn't even invite my own children to stay with me without cleaning better than this. Also, they left us very little room in the fridge and zero room in the filthy freezer. That's a problem when you're in a remote place where you have to bring all the food you will need.

Yankee Fork Cabin

This was a good place to stay in the Stanley area. The neighborhood the cabin is in is pretty junky. Neighbors don't get rid of old cars, tires, etc. This cabin is nice.
