Salmon Valley Guest Ranch - Cozy 3 bedroom cottage

Hosts were very friendly and ready if anything was needed. We were given the animal tour and we could watch the farm fun during our stay. The location was quiet and peaceful, and a beautiful drive to multiple activities and shopping areas. The house was supplied with activities for all ages as well if the weather turned. We felt very comfortable and would definitely return if in the area.

Airbnb guest review

Great, and responsive host, and a very peaceful place to live. We stayed there for 2 nights and it was totally worth, as we were looking for some peaceful remote place to have a good rest and change. Also, the host is quite accommodating and flexible. Would definitely recommend the host and the place if you're looking for a quiet place to have a great retreat far from the chaos.

It was an amazing stay right in the woods . Host was very friendly and we loved the farm animals there. The house was very clean and board games and toys was a hit for my toddler. We loved it and would love to hang out again !

Relaxing atmosphere out of the city. Kids loved going to visit the animals next door to us. Bought fresh eggs in the morning. Cozy cottage stay.

Our family had the best stay here! Mitchell and Kelsey have thought of everything to make it comfortable for short term and/or long term stays, it is so well set up! Beds and beddings were very comfortable, the home was spotless and so welcoming. We appreciated that they provided laundry soap and coffee, very helpful! Check in was easy and the hosts were excellent at communicating clear, easy to follow directions. And the animals on their property were such a fun experience for the kids, we couldn't recommend this place more! Thank you Mitchell and Kelsey!
