So convenient to Lava Hot Springs yet far enough away from the crowds of downtown during the Fire and Ice Festival when a bit of peace and quiet is needed.

Excellent place to stay while you go to the Lava Hot Springs, very clean an quiet, house was very cozy and cute
It was a very nice stay in Bancroft. The house was great for our needs and a short drive away from Lava Hot Springs. The fenced in backyard was nice for the dog too.
On a trip to Lava, this ended up being the perfect, quiet home for our family.

Super cute home in a quiet town, the town is small and there are beautiful fields driving into and out of the town. A train track runs nearby which we loved getting to see. The house is cute and very clean and comfortable. The backyard is super cute and felt so nice to sit in the hammock and chairs by the fire.
Older house updated appropriately nice inside and out . Great place if you have a dog nice backyard and fire pit And a privacy fence. Owner manager is quick to respond when needed . We enjoyed our stay in banock.
We had a very relaxing and comfortable stay. All the necessities were available. We would recommend this place and look forward to staying here again. Michelle was great to communicate with us.
This was in the perfect spot between Lava Hot Springs and Soda Springs. The house was clean and comfortable. Our favorite spot was the backyard! It was the perfect spot to relax after long days in the sun.
This was our first time staying at a vacation rental home. This property is very nice and comfortable. The discription is written perfectly to discribe this property. We felt very at home. The drive to Lava Hot Springs only takes about ten minutes. This gives you time to get ready for fun.
Was exactly what I needed. Went hunting in the area and had this little home to sleep in. Very clean. Beds were harder than I like but at least I wasn't sleeping in my truck. Would rent again.

Everything was good, only a thing something dirty and bath tub and the handles of the drawers and the handle of the refrigerator a little sticky
This was our first time to Bancroft. 15 Mike's or so to Lava Hot Springs. It's a pretty drive. The backyard fire pit was very nice on the cold evenings. It's set up very cute. The towels were new and nice. Neighborhood is quiet. Unable to find anything to cook a roast in the oven and no crockpot so bring your own. Also bring salt, pepper, foil, ziplocks if you need them. It's not the cleanest of properties. I think it's great to have a pet friendly property but those of us that didn't bring our pets or don't have pets, having to deal with dog poop in the backyard was a bummer. Streaming services for tv viewing available. We had a nice time and made the very best of our stay.
It was exactly as expected and promised. The property was very clean, warm and welcoming. Beds were comfortable, and kitchen well stocked. Highly recommend!
The house was great and just what we were looking for as a quiet getaway for our family of 7. The house was clean and very updated.
Kitchen had what you need to make meals, but not enough dishes for 7 people. I was having to wash for very meal. Bring along some paper plates and cups.
