“A great choice for a place to stay in Stanley”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2011

The Valley Creek Motel is conveniently located on the west side of town on Highway 21. There are 7 rooms total. We stayed on the second floor which offered good views of the Sawtooths from the front balcony and a pleasant view off the rear deck of the Valley Creek and nearby hills. As with most of the motels in Stanley, it is right on the main road, so you also have views of other buildings, junky yards, etc. -- but that was our expectation anyway.

The rooms were good-sized, very clean and in great condition. The beds were very comfortable. Although we didn't watch it, the TV was a nice, medium-sized flat screen. There was a small kitchenette that was well outfitted, and a small table with 2 chairs. The bathroom is small but clean. They provide shampoo/conditioner/lotion and a hair dryer. There is also an ironing board in the room. There are chairs and tables on the front balcony so you can sit outside. There is also free w-fi.

I would definitely choose Valley Creek again. And while you are in Stanley, be sure to visit the Stanley Museum!

“Nice hotel with great views”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2011

This is a very nice hotel with some outstanding views of the mountains from the balcony. The rooms were clean, well maintained and quiet. The owner was very friendly and gave us some good suggestions for places to eat in town. The bakery in town has outstanding breakfast and they are very prompt in getting the food out. I would definitely stay here again.

“Great fun”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2011

We stopped in at this motel because it had tv spaces and also 50 amp for our big rig. It was in the middle of a very nice part of the state. They had 4 Rv spaces that were back in. We were not botherd once by the motel. It was also right next to a rafting company.

“Early season real value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2011 via mobile

Small facility with only seven rooms is located such that it has a wonderful view of The Sawfooths. There are balconies on both sides of the rooms. Room was clean and neatly arranged. Bed was comfortable, shower was adequate and the kitchenette had everything we needed. Owner/manager was cordial. All-in-all a great place to stay and very affordable.

Valley Creek Motel is a great place to stay in Stanley. Great rooms that are very clean. Owners who are as friendly and helpful as the exceptional view of the Sawtooths from the windows. I've stayed there many times and would highly recommend.
