Option 1: Garden Valley

Garden Valley - 50 mls north of Boise
  1. Middle Fork River Cabin - Sleeps 12*, $225/nt*
  2. Riverside Park Cabin - Sleeps 14, $200/nt*
  3. South Fork River Cabin - Sleeps 13, $225/nt*
  4. Warm Springs Pool House - Sleeps 12, $250/nt*
  5. Campgrounds - About $20/nt or $10/tent
*Keep in mind, that "sleeps 12", etc. usually refers to the beds, not the space. Many of these cabins have more than enough space for all of us.

*I just learned that the above prices only apply for the first 4 guests. Ugh. Every adult after the first 4 is $10 extra per night. Each additional child is $5/nt. Children under 4 are free. And there's a $150 cleaning fee. Double Ugh.
