Very clean room, comfortable bed. Walk across courtyard to the restaurant/bar. Extremely kind and helpful staff. Big downfall: hot water heater only allowed for a 2-minute shower. Get that issue resolved and would like to return.

This place is absolutely a hidden gym. I am from Texas and drove over 1740 miles in two days couldn’t find a hotel or motel in Boise, but I found this quaint little place. up in the mountains off the beaten path, and it was absolutely gorgeous. The scenery was nice. The staff was amazing. The place was so beautifully done. I would recommend this to anybody who’s passing through especially if you ride motorcycles with the terms and stuff. I wish I would’ve brought mine because the view is amazing. Absolutely worth the stay in the drive. Just a gorgeous cute little set up all the way around.

My husband and I just stayed overnight for our anniversary at the Gold Mine Hotel and Restaurant in Idaho City. They allowed us to bring our small dog, which was important to us. The small cabin was delightful, very clean, nicely decorated & very affordable compared to other options in the area. Our's had a king bed, TV, A/C, small refrigerator and microwave. We sat out on the cute porch in the evening after having a yummy dinner (and dessert which was on the house for our occasion). They even offered to start a campfire outside near our cabin for us. Would definitely recommend staying here and will go back.
