Smiley Creek Log Cabin: Idyllic Location with Lakes, Hiking & Winter Sports

Welcome to your serene escape in Smiley Creek, where the rugged beauty of Idaho's wilderness meets the comforts of home. Nestled between the vibrant towns of Stanley and Ketchum, this cabin is your gateway to adventure and relaxation.

Perched atop a welcoming hill, our pet-friendly retreat offers sweeping mountain views that will take your breath away. Here, you're not just near nature—you're immersed in it. With both Ketchum and Stanley within a 45-minute drive, you can easily explore the best of Idaho's stunning landscapes and outdoor activities.

Winter in Smiley Creek is pure magic, with snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing right outside your door. As the snow melts, the area transforms into a summer paradise, perfect for hiking, fishing, and exploring nearby alpine lakes. Whether you're seeking the thrill of a challenging hike or the tranquility of a day by the water, this is the place to be. And if you need recommendations for summer adventures like rafting or horseback riding, we've got you covered.

This cabin is Unit A, one of two connected units, so if you're traveling with a larger group, you can also rent Unit B for extra space. The cabin itself is warm and inviting, featuring two main bedrooms with queen-sized beds, en-suite bathrooms, and plenty of closet space. For additional guests, we offer an air mattress and two comfy couches in the living room, ensuring everyone has a cozy spot to unwind.

The heart of the cabin is the spacious living area, centered around a natural wood stove that fills the space with a warm, inviting glow. The open layout flows into a well-equipped kitchen, where you'll find everything you need for your culinary creations, from a stove and refrigerator to a coffee maker and microwave. The adjacent dining area is perfect for gathering around the table and making lasting memories.

Step outside to your expansive patio, a private retreat where you can dine under the stars, take in the breathtaking mountain views, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet of the Idaho wilderness. Whether it's morning coffee or an evening BBQ, this outdoor space is your sanctuary.

Privacy and comfort are key here. While Unit B is connected, your space is entirely your own, with a private entrance and amenities. There's free parking onsite for up to two cars, plus additional space for trailers or RVs. And yes, your furry friend is welcome to join the adventure—just let us know in advance.

This isn't just a place to stay; it's where your Idaho adventure begins. From winter sports to summer hikes, every season brings its own charm, and our cabin is the perfect basecamp for it all. We can't wait to welcome you to your home away from home in Smiley Creek.
