Liked everything about this place. We will be coming back again and often. Only thing that would be nice are coat hooks on the wall next to door, and a mini fridge for personal items. Love the kitchen and next time we come we will utilize the kitchen. Great place overall.

The Steelhead Lodge is great and is right on the banks of the Salmon River. Although the property is rural with no city amenities, there is a kitchen with snacks, coffee and tea which is open 24/7. This area also has a dining table, many books, and magazines providing insight to the local history. This would be a great place for a family reunion, with many recreational opportunities immediately surrounding and within the property.

Absolutely wonderful property and hosts

The property itself is beautiful, the rooms are clean and spacious, the caretakers were more than accommodating and extremely flexible. I would highly recommend staying here whether you’re in the area fishing, hunting, or just relaxing. Wonderful people, very helpful and pleasant.

Super cute inn. Big rooms, cute decor and dog friendly. We used the fully stocked kitchen to make breakfast and loved sitting in the gazebo over looking the river. Bed were comfortable! The only think I would add is conditioner and maybe more pillows on the bed. There is a keurig in the room and large coffee pot maker in the kitchen. It was close to jer boat tours. We will stay here again.

Excellent. Charming. We’ll return.

This exceeded our expectations so much. I cannot speak highly enough about the rooms and the quaint size of the lodge and the lovely couple manage the property. Amazing situation on the Salmon River. A well equipped, shared kitchen and library and sitting outside. We will be back. So happy we found this place.

Wonderful independent owner/ operators, on site 24/7. Spotless clean. Large "community kitchen" and Outdoor grill for those who want to cook their own meals. All rooms have a beautiful river view. Easy drive to rafting companies. We would stay here again.

Awesome property. Jeff was a terrific property host. Gorgeous views. I would stay here again. There are bugs, water on the bathroom floor, and the air conditioning struggles to keep up when temperatures are in the 90s, but these are all understandable for a lodge experience.
