"We had an amazing time. If you are traveling to the White Bird area, do not pass this place up. The amenities were top-notch. The private on-site chef was unbeatable; the food was tasty and on time for each meal. Drinks on the veranda, watching the eagles nesting near the Salmon River- once in a lifetime. Quiet, serene, peaceful, relaxing, isolated, but not remote. Good times and more."
