The space
You are staying in Grandpa Boyd and Grandma Lois's house aka BoLo.

Straight around the corner from Bolo--up Little Wood River Road is hiking, camping, fishing, water sports and all around beauty with the Pioneer Mountains reaching over 11,000 feet in elevation. Eight miles over the hill to Picabo, ID sits the famous Silver Creek known for some of the finest fly fishing in the country.

North on Highway 93 is the National Park System's Craters of the Moon National Monument (24miles), Mount Borah (Idaho's tallest Peak), Grand Tetons (3.5 hr drive) and yes, even Yellowstone National Park (3.5 hr drive)

West of the house is the Sawtooth Scenic Byway that will take you to famous Sun Valley, Idaho--world class destination resort known for incredible skiing, fly fishing and other outdoor pursuits.

We are truly central to almost every type of recreation imaginable. We hope you enjoy your stay.

Guest access
Entire home, front and side yard are available to our guests. Garage, shed and back of property are used by the owner. However, please park in front of Garage doors on concrete pad.

Other things to note
The house sits on a large lot on the edge of town but is within city limits and does have neighbors. There is a main farming road called Little Wood Reservoir Rd that has a lot of farm equipment traffic in the summer.

There are two restaurants, 93 Grill and Picabo Angler, with limited hours and a small grocery store/greenhouse (Itty Bitty Farms) and closest major grocery store is 25 minutes away. With notice, I can pick up any special grocery items you may want.

The washer, dryer, and two twin beds share a room.

We also have 8 kayaks and multiple sizes in life jackets available to rent via Silver Creek Kayaks.

Fishing poles and basic gear available for use.

Meet your hosts

My work: Silver Creek Kayaks
I spend too much time: Reading and shopping
I am a mom of three teen boys and I thrive on being overwhelmingly busy. I run this airbnb as well as a kayak rental and transport business called Silver Creek Kayaks. I love to travel and I want to be a professional road tripper someday ;0) I love to hike and run and I always plan my road trips around these two activities. I hope to make it to all of the national parks and make a good dent into the national monuments and state parks.
