McCroskey State Park, Idaho

McCroskey Park, known in the longhand as Mary Minerva McCroskey State Park, was dedicated in the 1950's to the hard-scrabble women of the pioneer days. Don your bonnet and live out your Little House on the Prairie fantasies here, where horseback riding and wildflower viewing are complimented by reading a hardback by the crackling fire. The 18-mile long Skyline Drive gives a window into some of the prairie's beautiful vistas and is the perfect spot to bring your mountain bike for a spin. Whether you're there to catch sight of some wild moose and black bear, or just to smell the sweet, fresh air, you'll feel like a pioneer after your stay, guaranteed.
