National forest 77mi from Leadore · 429 sites
Idaho oh Idaho. You never disappoint. The Salmon-Challis National Forest represents this flawlessly. Rugged mountains give way to untamed rivers; granite peaks gaze over sapphire alpine lakes; whitewater rafters cascade through rapids; and each day’s quest can lead to a different trail in the epic Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness, which happens to be the largest contiguous wilderness area in the continental United States! Rugged and remote, this country offers millions of acres filled with breathtaking views from gravel roads, enough fish to stock your freezer all winter, and groves of cedar trees where you can set up your tent and peer out to the ocean of stars. At night listen to the coyotes call, the owls hoot, and the clink of cans as you toast to this recreational heaven. Idaho of Idaho, you are so much more than just a potato!

We had a great stay at Doug and Shannon’s cabin! Located close to Salmon, but still remote and private. We stayed plenty warm in the cabin, and enjoyed the swing by the water. Would definitely recommend and would stay again next time we are in the area!

Weekend Trip to The Meadow
This was a very cute and homey cabin, perfect for a weekend getaway with my boyfriend. He originally wanted to camp, so even though the cabin is rustic, it was perfect for us. I especially enjoyed sitting on the loveseat on the porch. And having a coffee maker! The hosts were so friendly and welcoming.

Great spot close enough to Salmon. But not too close! Very comfortable space with big views. Outhouse is clean. Brandon offered me well water and 20amps of electricity. The area is well kept and is perfect for a tent

An absolutely lovely spot to relax for a day or a week. We wish we could have stayed all month!
The creek rushes by, cold and perfectly refreshing on a hot day. The cabin is adorable, comfortable, and well supplied. The outdoor kitchen, including fire pit, has everything one needs to cook gourmet camp meals and clean up afterwards. The nearby aspen groves are perfect for hammocks and shade any time of day.
We had just enough cell service (Verizon) in the meadow to stream Spotify and check our phones occasionally, though we did our best to keep them hidden away. Hosts are delightful—welcoming, accommodating, and generous. We bought lavender lotions and lip balm made right on site and enjoyed conversations with the whole family.
We will definitely be back, hopefully soon!

Brandon’s place was beautiful! From where we camped we saw deer and some beautiful horses. It was really close to the hiking spot we planned to go to so it was really convenient and he replied to any message I had in a timely manner. I will definitely choose this place again next time we visit salmon!

Weekend Trip to Salmon Gypsy B&B & Mini-Donkey Ranch
The gypsy wagon was definitely unique and fun. It was super clean and comfortable, the grounds were beautifully maintained and Lorett's cinnamon walnut bread was absolutely delicious! We had a nice campfire by the river in the evening and Pat even brought us more wood! We would have liked to have spent more time with the mini donkeys but the owners need to be with you so we didn't want to take too much of their time. Overall, it was a great experience and we will do it again in the future!

We had such a nice stay at this cozy rustic cabin! Great hosts, and great location. We recommend!
No cell service, and limited power, which is perfect by us! Comfy bed, and good views during the day!
A good spot to disconnect and relax on a winter night. Thanks!
