About this property

From 20 to 80 people, enjoy this private mountain Retreat!

Expanded over 9 acres, we have converted the old Garden Valley High School, Middle School, and Elementary school into a one of a kind location for all of your family memories. Your Idaho family reunion location and corporate retreat facility. It is the perfect location for large family reunions, church retreats, weddings, and large events. We have a fully functioning lodge with an awesome kitchen, full size basketball court, bounce houses, rock climbing wall, fishing pond, and game room for your enjoyment. Our facility sleeps over 80 people in beds and has a full commercial kitchen set up for big families.

Located only 50 minutes from the edges of Eagle Idaho, there is no other places that can accommodate large groups, be within an hours drive of Boise, and still get the mountainous feel like River Canyon Retreat. To sum it all up we are your perfect Idaho family reunion location.

Garden Valley, the gateway to an authentic Central Idaho Mountains adventure. Garden Valley is surrounded in all directions by mountain peaks, some over 7,000 feet. Two river systems carve valleys covered in the lush green of summer growth along with wildlife, stock and horses. In 1934 a new post office established the identity of Crouch, now one of the commercial districts for Garden Valley. The town was named after Billy Crouch, a miner who homesteaded near the confluence of the Middle and South Fork Rivers. In the 1920s, Crouch donated property for a new community hall in Garden Valley.
Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, 11 bathrooms, and a fireplace.

Outstanding Location for Groups of Any Size

We loved our visit to River Canyon Retreat! Greg and Cheryl are incredibly accommodating, and the location is absolutely beautiful. The property has plenty of space for both small and large groups, which makes it perfect for gatherings of any size. We highly recommend River Canyon Retreat and can’t wait to come back.

Great venue for a family camp

The venue was great to let kids play in the gym and game room (which they loved) while also providing a very comfortable place for adults to talk and a kitchen to make it easy to feed everyone.

Perfect for our Student Leadership Retreat

We brought 28 high school students to River Canyon for a leadership retreat. This venue was perfect for our needs. The meeting room was perfect for our learning sessions and speaker, and there were lots of activities to keep the students busy during free time. The hosts were available and helpful. We will book with them again next year if it works out.

Property fits all our needs

This place handles a group well without a lot of fuss. We have been here winter and summer and it's always fun with lots to do. It is a little confusing about the bedding if its furnished or not. I wish they would furnish bedding for everything or nothing. The gym entertains all ages and is a big plus, especially in cold weather. Hope to return someday.

Great Place for Work Retreat

We loved this venue for our work retreat. There were plenty of spaces for folks to gather. We had people of many ages and abilities and found it easy to navigate the property. We could have easily spent a few more days exploring all that the grounds and nearby surroundings have to offer!

Fantastic Family Reunion

The property was close to many excursions and has so many amenities that we (64 of us- ages 2-86) NEVER lacked for things to do. Greg and Sheryl were the best hosts in explaining the functions of the camp and helping us have all we needed for a great time. The kitchen was stocked well. If there was an issue - I’d say the knives need sharpening or need to be replaced. Great place. Clean! Reasonably priced. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

We had a great time at River Canyon!

We used River Canyon to host our high school church retreat and had a wonderful time! The students loved the different amenities such as the gym, game room, and hot tub! There was plenty of space for us and the staff was very communicable and cooperative with us! Will definitely look to stay here again!

The Facility was very accommodating. The hosts Greg and Cheryl were amazing to deal with. Very friendly.

We have never been to a place that met our needs like the River Canyon Retreat. The sleeping arrangement fit very well for what we had to deal with. Easy check and check out. Plenty of activities for the kids and adults to participate in. Local activities helped as well. This facility is very well equipped to fit the needs of most family or group gatherings. The kitchen was very easy to use and was well equipped with the pots and pans for our variety of cooking needs,

Great spot for a big group

We had a wonderful stay with our group of 55, extended family ages 0-75. The kitchen area was great to cook in, the dining area fit everyone easily, the rooms were nice, the bathrooms updated and clean, and the gym and the pool were so fun for all the kids. Thanks for providing a place we could comfortably be together!

We had a fantastic time at a great location and facility!!!!!!!!

Our family, about 75 of us, had a great and wonderful time at the River Canyon Retreat! The facility was excellent! It has soooo many things to do onsite! A shooting range was about 5 minutes away and was free! A golf course was about 15 minutes away and was quite nice! We took advantage of almost all of the facilities amenities. Greg and Cheryl were very helpful and kind. It didn't bother them that we asked for help from them a few times. They were extremely pleasant and helpful. We would stay at the RCR again! Thank you so much!

The best place for women's retreats!

I have been so impressed (and thankful) for the River Canyon Retreat Center. The staff is wonderful and has always been accommodating to our needs. Everything was clean and ready for us to come right in and begin our weekend! Cheryl worked with our caterer to ensure he could get on property and prep for our first meal. I would highly recommend this location for any function you have planned. Just a few minutes away from downtown Crouch--a special little town!

A Fun and Hospitable Retreat Center!

The men from our church had a wonderful retreat here. The facilities are great and we found everything very clean and tidy on our arrival. The onsite amenities are fantastic and a lot of fun. Though you could have a great time staying onsite, Garden Valley also has a lot to off for a great time. Greg and Cheryl were very kind, hospitable, and communicative and available for help at any time! We look forward to hosting our retreats here again in the future!

Youth Winter Camp

Incredible Winter Camp Experience! We had an amazing time at River Canyon Retreat for our winter camp! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, with snow-covered landscapes that made for a perfect winter retreat. The accommodations were top-notch—comfortable, clean, and well-equipped for our group. The staff was welcoming and made sure everything ran smoothly. From the beautiful surroundings to the cozy atmosphere, it was the ideal place to connect, grow, and enjoy the season. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and look forward to coming back! Highly recommend for any group looking for a peaceful and inspiring retreat.

Fits our family

We had 74 people (ranging from 6 months to 79 years old) at RCR for our family reunion and we all fit! After 5 nights we could have all stayed longer. The gym is amazing and used every minute of the day. The kitchen can actually support cooking for a large crowd. It's amazing to find a place so user friendly, in a beautiful location with the nicest onsite property managers ever! I do believe having some kind of cancelation policy would be a good idea and a good business move. I can't think of another rental property that doesn't have one in place. But all in all, we have loved all 3 of our stays at RCR!

Fun for All

We were very comfortable in the home with plenty of room for all. The kitchen made cooking together a fun time with everything you could possible want. We've been here several times and never been disappointed. The gym gives kids their own space with all the activities to keep them entertained. This was a great time for us all.

Great Facility!

We had our company retreat at River Canyon, and what I can say is this facility exceeded our expectations. Cheryl and Greg were awesome to work with, they were right there if we had questions. We had 20 people and they all had a great time, and let's not forget about the elk herd and wild turkeys that came up on the property while we were there! Just beautiful! Thank you again, and you just may see us again next year!
