HOTEL RENEGADE

With designs inspired by Boise’s rich history, this luxury boutique hotel offers guests a “new way to stay.” In the heart of downtown Boise, take in the city with a warm cup from the hotel’s coffee house or wind down with an old fashioned at the rooftop bar. Be one of the first guests at Hotel Renegade in 2024!

WAPITI MEADOW RANCH

Located in the heart of Idaho’s Salmon River wilderness, Wapiti Meadow Ranch offers classic guest cabins surrounded by hiking, fly fishing, wildlife watching, and more. And they’ve done it for 32 years. Wapiti Meadow Ranch is a true Idaho experience.

ARROWHEAD CAMPGROUND

Sure, you could bring your RV or tent — but you don’t have to. Arrowhead includes rustic cabins and yurts just steps away from a calm stretch of the Payette River. Also included? Classes from on-site artisans.

CASCADE DOME

Sleep under the stars in this beautiful geodesic dome. It may be a rustic, off-grid experience, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t high-style or comfortable. Requires walking down 32 stairs and over uneven terrain. The Cascade Dome sleeps two.

SCANDIA INN

A historical staple in downtown McCall surrounded by Scandinavian culture, architecture, and tradition. With five different room types, the Scandia Inn is just a short stroll from Payette Lake, local shopping, and restaurants.

WARM LAKE LODGE

Outdoor enthusiasts – your perfect place awaits! With an elevation of 5,300 feet above sea level, this pristine location is located at Warm Lake, the largest natural lake in the Boise National Forest.

Camp, fish, hunt, hike, or spend your time at the Warm Lake Lodge restaurant and bar. The area is full of active wildlife, so there is never a shortage of things to see. Rent one of their seven cabins or opt for a camping spot just 250 feet from the short of the lake.
