Where mornings start on the deck
and the river does the talking.
A single-level riverfront cabin in Lowman, Idaho, set among the pines of Boise National Forest with the South Fork Payette River running past the back door.
Walk in the front door and the river is right there through the windows. The open living room has large couches, a smart TV with streaming and a wood-burning fireplace, and it flows into a fully equipped kitchen and a dining table that looks out at the water. Board games are on hand for family game night.
Outside, the deck and furnished patio step down to a small private beach with chairs by the river and a fire ring for the evening. Kirkham Hot Springs is about 5 miles east and Pine Flats Hot Springs about 4 miles west. Keep an eye out for the osprey nest on the mountain behind the cabin, and go looking for huckleberries in season.

A Private Beach on the River

Fire Ring by the Water
Gather around the fire ring next to the river after dark. Please check local fire restrictions before lighting a fire.
Trout Fishing Out Back

"House was clean and well appointed. The kitchen is well equipped with quality cookware and utensils. Nice big TV in the living room area and internet connectivity was not an issue. In fact I was surprised to find that I was getting very fast Verizon 5G service at this location. The real centerpiece of this property however, the crown jewel, is the beautiful little private beach area right on the Payette. We spent the majority of our time hanging out at the river, just listening to the sounds of the rushing water and the all the various birds chirping. Very soothing and relaxing experience. We hope to come back again next summer."
"We had a great time at this location! We used this location for a relaxing girl’s weekend. It had all the things we needed to make all our meals, go hot springing, and to relax and unwind by the river. The location and property are so ideal, I’m already plotting to bring my family with small children for a future trip."
"We had a great time at the cabin. It was so peaceful and beautiful on the deck. The cabin was very comfortable. I loved the layout of the kitchen. I actually brought to much stuff. Pretty much everything I needed was there already! The host was very good. Any questions I had he got right back to me. It made the whole experience very nice."
"The cabin was fabulous. The best part was sitting on the back porch, just relaxing and listening to the sounds of the river. The cabin was extremely clean, very spacious, and super comfortable with plenty to do in the area. We can't wait to come back."
"Such a beautiful, peaceful place to relax and enjoy the river, smells of nature and almost silent sounds. The house was immaculate and well stocked and the spacious living room was much larger than pictured. I wish I was still there! Jeff is the best, easy to communicate with and very responsive."
"This home is the perfect place to disconnect and unwind. As soon as you walk in the front door and see the river through the windows you realize how special this place is. The only thing that was hard was having to checkout. The nearby hot springs are definitely worth checking out."
