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.

You could say Boise National Forest is in the tri-forest area. It is surrounded on all sides by Payette, Salmon-Challis, and Sawtooth National Forests, it is situated conveniently close to both urban fun in Boise, and limitless wilderness adventures everywhere else. Alpine tundra is dotted with evergreen forest in the green rolling hills here, topped with snow, and anchored by sparkling valley waterways. The Payette River is great for rafting, while Banks Beach and Beehive Bend are just some of the prime access points on the forest’s 250 lakes and reservoirs (Arrowrock Reservoir has surprisingly primo salmon fishing for central Idaho). Hikers will find 500 trails, including some that lead to 360-panoramic views at fire lookouts. The ambitious should try 10,000-foot high Trinity Mountain, while more liesurely trekkers will get just as good a view at Silver Creek. As if that’s not all enough to keep you busy, there are also endless mountain biking trails, including a scenic route along Shafer Butte. You’ll have your hands full at this intersection of so many great parks!

Beautiful site that sits in the back of a big open field. We loved how private and spacious it felt and our dog loved running around in the field. Super clean and well kept. There is a small airport close by and the planes can be loud, but it was infrequent enough and the space was so peaceful otherwise that it didn't bother us.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The area was peaceful and felt private. We saw plenty of wildlife including deer, fox, and elk. Brooke was very helpful and even let us know when we could spot elk in her field. The river was a favorite for both our dog and my husband who caught lots of fish. The site fit our 40' fifth wheel with no problems. A great spot that I would definitely come back to.

Outstanding secure camp spot steps to the river on a lovely working farm. Wildlife and bird viewing right from camp. Excellent private location with easy access to the Big Wood River valley. Wouldn’t hesitate to return.

We loved staying on Brooke’s land. It was private felt like we had the place to ourselves. Close to the river. Our dog was in 7th heaven with all the space he wanted to run around and play. Would stay here again!
