49mi from Jimmy Smith Lake Trailhead Campground · 1 site · RV · Bellevue, ID
Camp along the Big Wood River on Drinkers of the Wind’s family horse ranch and regenerative agroforestry farm near world famous Sun Valley, Idaho. Spend your days enjoying outdoor activities (fishing, hiking, mountain biking, paddle boarding) and your nights soaking up the stars in the night sky, sampling the many local restaurants, or enjoying music and other cultural events in nearby towns. In addition to producing a variety of fruits, nuts, vegetables, herbs, and cut flowers, the farm’s underlying goal is to provide a demonstration of the ways agriculture can combat climate change, improve biodiversity, and protect water quality and quantity, while providing nutrient dense food for the community. This special place is home to diverse wildlife - including deer, elk, mountain lion, eagles, hawks, herons, and songbirds galore. Learn more and find us on Instagram and Facebook.
