Fabulous Mountain Chalet on the River with All the Amenities you Desire!

Book this one fast!!! The Middlefork River Chalet has it all with lots of room for all your family and friends. Located on the banks of the middle fork of the Payette, the Middlefork River Chalet sits above the river, surrounded by stands of pines and is completely private. When you arrive, you will find plenty of parking for all your guests, plus their toys and an RV or two. First, you will notice the awesome developed outdoor firepit area with log seating for quite a group. The chalet has three large levels for everyone to enjoy. Enter in the great room with a bank of windows up to the ceiling. Comfortable seating in the living room is perfect for enjoying the wood fireplace and the large flat screen Smart TV with Direct. Granite counter tops invite you to spend time in the homey kitchen with all the pots, pans and necessary items to prepare quick or gourmet meals. The large propane grill is located just off the kitchen on the covered deck. Enjoy meals, games and socializing at the custom-made log dining table. Down the hall on the main level are two private bedrooms each with a Queen bed and a full bath. Laundry area is located within the closet area of the right-hand bedroom. If you head upstairs, you can hide-out in the super quiet loft area with antique juke box and other historical items. A dedicated office space is available if you need to work. Two guests can sleep comfortably in the loft area futon. Just off the loft, the master suite with Queen bed, full bath, separate shower and old-fashioned claw foot soaking tub awaits! Heading down to the lower level you will find another bedroom with a Queen and a bunk bed. And a full bath. A second living area with Smart TV, and seating make for two separate living areas for large groups. Also, downstairs is a full-size pool table and foosball game. Heading outside you will find so many exciting things to do – from the large fire pit, basketball (bring your own ball), horseshoes to the developed beach area on the river with chairs and sunshades! Stroll across the little bridge to the hot tub area perched high above the river. Soak, relax and take in the views. An inviting bistro table and chairs lets others join you even if they don't want to use the hot tub. The middle fork of the Payette is easy going for tubing, kayaking and you can put in up the river in the Boise National Forest and float right back to the cabin!

Truly a five star experience from booking to departure! Karen, our hostess, was easy to contact and a wealth of information.Photos are accurate, but don't really do the cabin and property justice! Ample parking, spacious interior, well stocked, beautifully decorated...I usually try to add the little negatives for a truly balanced review, but in this case I honestly can't think of a single one. The hot tub overlooking the river was wonderful!We look forward to returning!

Great location

This is a fabulous cabin located just an hour and a half from Boise on the Payette River. It has a great property to explore. It’s not difficult to get to, so that’s a plus. The little town of Crouch is fun to explore and has a pretty nice supermarket too.We didn’t see any actual bigfoot(s) but plenty of representation around the neighborhood. It’s a beautiful, fun area and the house is great!

Beautiful home and location

Very well stocked home - everything we needed. 8 and 10 year-old grandsons loved the video consoles. The adults loved the pool table. Beautiful surroundings, lovely hot tub, great river access, and we appreciated that the deck had closeable gates to keep dogs and/or little ones (we didn't have any) in safely. Fabulous stay!

Beautiful Location

Our family had a wonderful getaway at this house. It was a great size for our family of 6 kids and 6 adults. The hot tub above the river was fantastic. The kids found a place to sled and spent most of the day light hours sledding. The only negative I would have is that the beds were not the most comfortable.

Best time EVER!

We have been renting this cabin for several years now and have always enjoyed the experience. We love the big kitchen and wrap around deck. My family floats the river during the day and enjoy s'mores by the fire during the evening. We love that we can bring our dogs. A true family gathering in the perfect setting. Thank you!

access to property was easy, front door appears to be somewhat damaged. The hot tub was a little tricky to figure out, but we alternately did. The facilities are nice and well kept except the downstairs shower in the basement doesn’t drain well and showe doesn’t work properly. Everything else was great! The river access is beautiful, and the fire pit was a wonderful addition for making s’mores. We would love to come back.

Camping without a campfire

The cabin was great, as always. The only disappointments were that there was too much smoke from the forest fires, and we weren't able to have an outdoor fire. Also, the flush valve in the main floor toilet allows a small amount of water to be wasted. We all still had a great time.
