Great location just 15 minutes out of Ketchum. House had all the comforts and beds very comfortable. Books, darts, games, pet bowls, outdoor seating and several firepits. Very relaxing which is exactly what we were looking for. Never found the land line phone but wifi worked great.

Great place
Spouse and I took our first 2 week vacation in years and could not have found a better place to stay. While "small", it was the perfect size for the two of us and our dog. Great place to return to after snowshoeing or great place to just sit and read a book. Would definitely stay here again, and in a different season.

Great, quiet cabin in the woods
I had stayed at this cabin before in winter and had a great time. It is even better in the summer! Great quiet location with nice outdoor spaces. I enjoyed listening to the creek. The cabin was perfect for me and my dog. Will rent again.

Cozy cabin tucked away in the woods- remote but not too remote- only 19 or 15 minutes from town. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a quiet getaway! Andrea

Wonderful Cabin!
We loved this cozy cabin in the woods, especially all the windows letting in the beautiful greenery from outside. Being so close to Frenchman’s hot springs was a bonus. There is a warm feeling about the Emerald Gem. Looking forward to returning!

Perfect Winter Getaway
My husband, two dogs and I came to Ketchum for a 5 day (4 night) weekend to cross country ski. This cabin was the perfect base camp. It is quiet and peaceful, the surroundings are beautiful and the cabin was the perfect size for us. It has a rustic feel but has all the amenities and luxuries (hot shower, kitchen to cook dinner and a wonderfully comfortable bed) that you could want. I love that this is dog friendly - being able to bring our dogs enhanced our experience immensely. One of our favorite parts was making a fire every night and listening to the crackle as we unwound on the couch. Highly recommend this place and hope to come again!

a gem in the woods
spent 9 delightful nights in a rustic cabin. very comfortable, cozy and spacious for 2 people. was not lacking for anything. we would either bike or hike for several hours (not from there) and come back and hang out and relax. never went out for a meal as didn't feel like driving 18-20 minutes back to town. would definitely stay again. also, the owner's were quick to respond to any questions if I had any.

The perfect mountain cabin!
I feel so lucky to have discovered the Emerald Gem! My husband and I, along with our dog, stayed four wonderful days and we only have positive things to say about this cabin and its location. We loved being surrounded by gorgeous trees while enjoying the calming sounds of the nearby creek. The cabin was super clean, 100% dog-friendly, comfortable, and very well-appointed. We lacked for nothing! And we appreciated the great communication from the hosts. Needless to say, we can't wait to visit again! K.Lee & David Theel

Thanksgiving Getaway
Great place and location. Very hospitable hosts. Loved that we could take our dogs. But nowhere did I see information online that indicated we could not leave our dogs unattended for an hour or two. I did see it in the rule book provided by our host when we got to the cabin. If we had been instructed on this prior to going we probably would have looked for a different place. Perhaps in future “dog friendly” could include a variation on this policy. Like “kenneled pups” may be left unattended in cabin for an hour or two?” Many thanks for sharing your property with us.

My stay could not have been better
We found the cabin exceed all of the (already high) expectations we got from the VRBO listing. On one hand, the back wall of the cabin looks out directly into the forest -- you can sit on the couch and peer into the endless trees for hours. Foxes and elk occasionally roam by your front porch! On the other hand, the kitchen is one of the most modern ones I have seen! I loved the wooden cabinets, and some day would love to own one just like that. Finally, I appreciated all the natural cleaning products that Gabriela stocked the cabin with. I apologize for a rambling review, but there are too many great things to say about the cabin. I cannot wait to be back. Gabriela is a fantastic host and always responded to all questions promptly.

Birthday Getaway
My boyfriend and our two small dogs enjoyed everything about our Fall weekend stay. It was the perfect 41st birthday celebration getaway. The cabin was incredibly welcoming for both us and the pups (complete with dog bowls, spare leashes, and even puppy treats). We cooked breakfasts and dinner in the well-stocked kitchen and enjoyed our meals in the window surrounded nook. We made coffee and visited the hot springs RIGHT down the road early one morning before breakfast. We sat on the deck at sunset with a fire crackling in the chiminea then moved inside to the wood burning stove and played a few round of darts before watching a movie. The bed was incredibly comfy (tho we baked the first night not realizing the heater UNDER the bed was on lol) and the rain shower head in the bathroom is such a lovely touch. We loved the fact that it felt so private yet not completely remote. I could go on and on... It honestly could not have been more perfect.

Best little cabin
Loved every minute of our stay. So many little touches added to the enjoyment. You feel like they have thought of everything from having the fireplaces ready to just light a match to fresh coffee beans ready to grind. Also, they had dog bowls, dog bed, and snacks that confirmed to us that our dog was very welcome there. Beautiful time of year to visit....great fall colors :) Thank you!

Peaceful
We had a wonderful time! The property was fun to explore. The cabin was a perfect size and we loved using the wood stove to warm up. They had a very well stocked kitchen. Usually there’s always something missing, like a can opener, but they had everything that you would need. You won’t regret renting this home.
