Awesome Views of the Southfork Payette, Hot Tub and Room to Roam
Stop right here! The Southfork Hideaway is the place to be for awesome views, total privacy and the best place to base your outdoor adventures from. Perched above the south fork of the Payette river in beautiful Garden Valley you won't be disappointed when you stay here. The location provides total privacy and with that, many visitors. Don't be surprised if you see – elk, deer, bear, turkeys, eagles, herons and even possibly a rare mountain lion or rocky mountain sheep! As you enter through the gate, you will see the fantastic fire pit with log seating and the large area in front of the cabin for the kids to play. On the left is ample room for an RV or two (must be pre-approved). Entering through the front door is like stepping into the past. The historical miner's cabin is built of logs and has many of the original, but renovated items. A comfortable living area with futon, Smart TV with Apple TV streaming, movies is a great to place to relax after the day spent exploring. Two private bedrooms, each with a Queen bed, and one with a delightful window seat overlooking the river is great for a quiet reading nook or sleeping for a teen or youngster. The kitchen has everything you need for great meals and the BBQ is just out the door on the expansive deck. Just outside the front bedroom is the hot tub overlooking the river. Relax and gather on the large deck, partly covered, and listen to the roar of the river. Head to Kirkham Hot Springs just q quick 10 minute drive up the road. Get on up here and make some lasting memories with your close family, friends and the one you love the most!

Cabin is full of fun character and set in a beautiful setting with breathtaking views. We spotted lots of wildlife while there and enjoyed the deer and elk nearby daily. The view and sound of the river from the deck was very relaxing and we enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit too.
The amazing views from the deck were incredible and the sound of the rushing river was magical. The furniture was super comfortable and the internet worked great. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was great for cooking meals. The hot tub at night was a great ending to each day. We look forward to returning one day.
Lovely scenery! Relaxing. Just what the doctor ordered. Cabin was quaint and just what we needed to enjoy life away from civilization.
Thank you for sharing your cabin!
It was our wedding anniversary and the host left a couple of bottles of wine and glasses and 2 cute coffee mugs! The cabin was so cute and comfortable! The view was amazing! We really enjoyed sitting on the deck listening to the river and enjoying the view! We would definitely come back again!

Perfect romantic getaway
The view from the back deck could not be more perfect - we didn't want to leave! The cabin was clean and has just about everything you could need (except a hairdryer - heads up!) during your stay. The Garden Valley Market had all the groceries and other supplies for our stay. While the arrival instructions said GPS was not accurate, we found both Google Maps and Waze to be perfectly accurate getting us to the address provided. There were plenty of towels, blankets, and pillows to stay cozy. We can't wait to visit again!
My wife, Shelly, and I spent eight days in the Boise area with the last two being here at this wonderful cabin. Once we parked our car and unpacked, we spent most of our time on the back deck overlooking the Payette river. We both felt so relaxed at this property and decided to stay here for two days without traveling anywhere else. The cabin was very clean and the Tempur-pedic bed provided superior rest. We can’t wait to come back and we dream of living here. In this location now. It’s great to dream after you’ve been somewhere like this. Sincerely, Patrick from Wisconsin.
The roaring river, the amazing views from the window seat, the full kitchen, the awesome patio…all of it was perfect. We appreciated all the dishes/cookware in the kitchen, we prepped and cooked every meal for our entire stay without any trouble at all. The nightly views of deer/elk meandering across the front yard was pretty awesome, too.
I misunderstood “coin laundry” to mean it was onsite, but there was no access to laundry onsite nor within a 20 minute drive. Honestly, that was the only downside to this property. Everything was fantastic, including the memory foam bed and plenty of towels/sheets/blankets to make things comfy.
The instructions were clear and everything was ready when we got there. The location is breathtaking! We had a mom and her two babies stay in the yard while we were there and the little town next to it was just divine. We loved getting to know the locals.
Absolutely incredible and well managed property. Very comfortable and peaceful with wildlife (deer and turkeys) as well as a great view of the river. Can't wait to stay here again!
Nice cabin along the river for a secluded getaway.

Perfect Getaway
The pictures do not do this cabin justice! It was much larger than anticipated and so serene and relaxing! We especially loved the personalized welcome sign, it definitely made us feel welcome! Thank you so much for opening your home up to us so that we could enjoy a weekend away from the city!
My wife and I made our first venture into Idaho and picked this cabin. We were not disappointed. The cabin was cozy and met our needs. The porch and gazebo overlooking the river was awesome. We spent a lot of time on the deck listening to the water & watching rafting tours and kayaks navigate the river. The nearby Starlight Mountain Theater put on a great production of Footloose. A doe and 2 fawns visited us as well. Great location and great trip!
