We were driving through a remote area, in the Sawtooth mountains (northeast of Boise), passing full campsite after full campsite (in the rain...). Just before dark we found this amazing little motel that had a private natural hot springs in the backyard of each room. Dreamy! Couldn't have planned it any better than that. We got the last available room, and spent most of the night soaking. There was also a swimming pool, naturally heated by the local hot springs. In the morning we ate an amazing breakfast cooked by the owners of the place.
We were fortunate to have clear skies and an empty campsite the following night.
The campground host tipped us off to another local attraction: a hot tub, fed by a natural spring, built in the shallows of the Salmon River a mile down the road.
