Title: Peaceful Creekside Retreat with Mineral Soaking TubsWe loved our stay at this beautiful historic log home tucked beside Warm Springs Creek. The property has a timeless character that traces back to its homestead roots, yet it’s comfortably updated and thoughtfully appointed. It’s clear the hosts care deeply about creating a special experience.If you’re looking for a quiet, romantic escape, this place is a gem. The drive is about six miles down gravel roads, but the moment you arrive, the world softens. The sound of the creek, the spacious cabin, and the three mineral-fed soaking tubs make it easy to unwind. The sauna is an added gift after long days exploring.The cabin works wonderfully for couples or small groups, and the peaceful setting brings regular visits from the local wildlife.

Beautiful stay in an older cabin. Highly communicative owner and good directions. Would definitely recommend for people who are already a little familiar with the more rustic side of life. (It's an old building with off the grid quirks)

What can I say that has not already been said? Lisa and Michael are amazing hosts. The natural hot springs-fed hot tubs were a joy. We spent one evening in one enjoying the full moon (at Lisa's suggestion). The property is well-maintained and beautiful in July. We ate dinners on the bridge and watched the fish and ducks swim by. The refrigerator was fully stocked, more than we needed. It was so tranquil we did not turn on the TV the entire time we were there. We will be coming back again and again (for as many times and Lisa and Michael let us back).

This Bavarian style log cabin up the Warm Springs Creek outside of Ketchum Idaho is a place of dreams. Indoor and outdoor fireplaces, sconce lighting and candles lovely antiques, antique Wedgwood stove, flowers everywhere. Warm Springs creek burbles outside and provides hot mineral water for three hot tubs. This isn’t just a spot, it’s an experience of pure Idaho paradise right outside Ketchum. Hosts amazing of course!

Perfect gem.

This was our second time here but hopefully not our last- we love this place- so peaceful after a day of skiing- the warmth and comfort of the cabin, filled with antiques and art (stocked with all kinds of delicious treats) create a welcoming, memorable retreat --and we were in the natural hot spring tubs (listening to the sounds of the river and forest) morning and night! Thank you.

Great Mountain Get Away

We loved the secluded house and it's old-world charm. The hot tubs and sauna are a huge bonus.A couple of corrections or additions to the listing:- The upstairs bed is a double, not a queen. But very comfortable with heating pads.- The owners live in a house on the same property. They are great to work with and very hospitable.- January is very cold, naturally. The fireplace and space heaters couldn't keep up, so we had to run the gas oven to help heat the house.We will definitely come again!

Magical

This stay was better than we could've imagined. The photos on the listing do not do it justice. Think quaint little French cottage in the woods-inside the national forest. You have to cross a covered wooden bridge to access the property, and there are tubs near the creek that have hot water pumped directly into them from Frenchman Hot Springs. The owners are very welcoming and give you as much space as you need but check in to see if you need anything. We will definitely try to stay here again when we're in the area or as a special trip. I can't say enough about it. It was the perfect place to quiet my mind and reconnect with nature.

Wonderful escape

This is a very charming log cabin hidden from the road and decorated with old world charm. It is perfect for 2. For a week we had our own covered bridge over a gurgling creek for coffee in the morning and wine in the evening, two natural hot tubs, trails nearby to hike, and trout nearby to catch and release on a fly. We enjoyed delicious meals in Ketchum/Sun Valley as well as picnics on the beautiful property.Lisa and Michael, property owners,were terrific.We can’t wait to return.

Relaxing Getaway

Amazing location! So beautiful and relaxing… we didn’t want to leave! It is about 20 minutes outside of Ketchum in the sawtooth national forest right on Warm Springs creek rd near Frenchman’s Hot Springs. It was further out than we realized, so it was a bit challenging to find the first time, but worth the drive. Lisa was super nice and it was fun to hear about the history of the place when we arrived. Spring fed hot tub right next to the river was the best! Perfect romantic getaway!

This remote and private property was a beautiful location to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We really enjoyed the private hot springs-fed tub and relaxing by the river. The home was well stocked, the owners were helpful and kind, and the decor lent to the charm of a European cottage.

I recently stayed at a charming cottage that was nothing short of perfect and magical. The owners truly paid attention to every detail, making my birthday celebration unforgettable. The cottage itself was beautifully decorated, cozy, and equipped with all the amenities one could wish for. The serene surroundings, coupled with the owners' warm hospitality, created an enchanting atmosphere. This cottage is a hidden gem that I highly recommend for anyone looking to experience a perfect getaway.

Amazing weekend in Sun Valley!

This property is absolutely magical! We were blown away with how charming and unique everything was, and the hot springs fed hot tubs were to die for! Somehow we missed the fact that there was a separate sauna cabin so that was a nice surprise too! This place is absolutely not kid or pet friendly so do not even think about it - beautiful antiques everywhere. Very well stocked - the owners have thought of everything! We especially loved the wood burning fireplaces after a long day of skiing. Can't wait to go back! Do not hesitate to rent this spot if you don't mind driving a bit from town for some peace and quiet. Internet connection was great for wifi and calling.
