Favorite place in Stanley

We had an amazing stay (again) on this property...the location is the best! We love the creek in the back for fishing, floating, and playing...and the view from the front is stunning. House had everything we needed and host was amazing . Hope we can stay here for years to come!

Property is not what is represented on VRBO

The loft where we stayed was comfortable and nice, but it was not the property represented on the VRBO website. This needs to be changed as we were expecting something different from the pictures we saw on the website and description of amenities. For example, the amenities list stated a washer and dryer would be available, but these were not present. We were counting on being able to do laundry.

A magical experience.

The perfect accommodation for a first-time visit to the Dark Sky Reserve. A very cozy, clean, and romantic space - well appointed with everything we needed. Centrally located enough to explore the area, yet tucked away for a feeling of privacy. Belle, the resident Aussie Shepard, was a sweet added touch. Will definitely return! Thanks for the memories!

We loved Stanley!

Great spot that was cozy and warm when we arrived. Jocelyn and Doug were very accommodating and made the apartment easy to access. The views in the morning from the studios big windows are almost worth it alone. Stanley is such a cool little town. I wish we could have planned our trip in September to take advantage of the other restaurants in town since many of them are only open in the spring/summer. We hope to be back in this part of Idaho in the future!
