Sourdough Lodge

Tamarack Lodge Sun Valley

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful staff clean establishment and a very pleasant stay."

The Village Inn Motel and Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"The Village Inn Motel in Challis was a perfect, clean, and highly convenient stop on my drive from northern Montana down to Twin Falls. The room itself was absolutely spotless, comfortable, and quiet after a long day of driving. At the front desk, the worker behind the counter was incredibly nice, welcoming, and helpful, making check-in a complete breeze. Another massive perk was having the restaurant located right on the property, meaning I didn't have to get back in the car to find a great meal after an exhausting day on the road. I would absolutely stay here again on my next road trip through Idaho!"

Red Rock Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Quick and easy parking, check-in."

Northgate Inn Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Good room, everything that was needed for a stay that involved work only."

Sacajawea Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great family and dog friendly motel less than a mile from Main Street. Very friendly and helpful staff."
