“Avoid if you have children!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 July 2009

The rooms were clean. Definitely not a place for children or anyone who wants to feel like a welcome guest. There are notes typed everywhere about not removing anything from the room and the notes stress that no one other than the registered guest is to use the room. I can definitely understand not wanting others to shower or stay the night, but my mother, sister and brother were approached when they came to visit us and were told by the owners not to even enter the room. We also have dogs and take extreme care with them not to let them bother others, but were given the evil eye when we let them out of the cages that were in the back of our truck to take a bathroom break. Our children also received many looks. We felt like we were criminals. Lousy TV.

“Absolutely delightful, clean and bright lodging -- with TWO balconies!”

The Valley Creek Motel is a superior accomodation in Stanley, ID. It offers traditional single room 'motel' furnishings, and the kitchenette was a pleasant surprise....as was the rear balcony overlooking a fly fishing area. Watch out for elk on the road! The front balcony view is of the Sawtooth Mountains. We would definitely stay here again, and often recall our experience there among our favorite surprises after decades of travel 'out West'.

“Great place!”

This is a rustic style motel with RV accomodations situated right on the Salmon River at the base of the Sawtooth mountains. The rooms are immaculate and roomy, with reliable wireless internet. The "lodge" (it's a log building) is smokefree, but there are two porches available where it is comfortable to smoke. We would highly recommend this motel to everyone who passes through Stanley.

  • Liked — Rustic, clean atmosphere
  • Disliked — gravel parking lot (but only because we were on a motorcycle)
