Colter Cabin: Classic Log Cabin w/ Privacy & Views

Colter Cabin is located on six private acres surrounded by ranches and aspen trees. It's the western log cabin you've been looking for, just north of Driggs, Idaho in the foothills of the Tetons near the Wyoming state line. It's a romantic escape for one couple, but can also accommodate two couples, a small family, or serve as an artist/writer retreat. Honeymooners love the authenticity of the true log construction, big fireplace, and dramatic views. There's fantastic bird watching, hiking, biking, kayaking, skiing, and fishing nearby. Or just enjoy the fresh mountain air!

The cabin features high ceilings, classic log construction, a stacked-stone fireplace, and forever views of the neighboring ranch and the Big Hole Mountains. Sip your coffee on the back porch and keep an eye out for moose, fox, and bald eagles. The bright and airy upstairs bedroom sleeps two adults in a queen bed, while the downstairs bedroom features a twin daybed, flatscreen TV, and a sitting area. The central great room offers a fully stocked kitchen, dining area, and a sofa and chairs to relax on after a big day exploring the mountains or floating the Teton River.

Grand Targhee is 25 minutes up the hill for excellent powder skiing in winter, and Jackson Hole is about an hour over the pass. Yellowstone (93 miles) and Grand Teton National Parks (47 miles) are a bit further afield. Enjoy views of Grand Targhee ski area and the Teton range from the front deck while surrounded by nature. You can cross-country ski or snowshoe out the front door or find your way to one of the many groomed trails near the towns of Driggs or Victor. Men's Journal named Driggs, "The best small town in America" in 2001. We think it's still true today!

In summer, there's great kayaking on the Teton and Snake Rivers and mountain biking in the Big Hole Mountains. Fly-fishing is available at Leigh Creek, the Teton River, and other local waterways within a few minutes' drive. Venture 40 miles north to Henry's Fork to try your hand at world-famous fly-fishing spots. Hike into the Jedediah Smith Wilderness to get away from it all or take an easy stroll from the cabin down to beautiful Leigh Creek. Horseback riding and golf are also available within a few minutes' drive. The darling town of Driggs is a 7-mile drive and features cute restaurants and shops. Idaho Falls and Jackson airports are each about 75 minutes away.

Wonderful Private Cabin
My son and I stayed 7 nights at this wonderful and private cabin flanked by pasture land and a view of the Grand Tetons. The cabin has amazing sunset views from both of the porches (one off of each bedroom). The porches overlook pastures with a dozen horses that graze and play throughout the day. We also saw a few deer on the property during the evenings. There is a family of foxes that lives in a woodpile down the road and come out around dusk. All the modern conveniences (KitchenAid appliances, pots/pans/etc, big TV w/ Apple TV, washer/dryer, and great water pressure - - which is nice after a long day exploring). Very private and down a well-maintained gravel road. It was 28 degrees the first two nights we were there and the big fireplace and ample seasoned wood delivered beautifully. (There's heat, too, but using the fireplace was way more fun!) Parking is simple (large gravel area in front of garage which is in front of the actual cabin) and check-in was a breeze. There are several hiking options in the area including some trails into the west side of the Tetons (trailheads about 15 minute drive from cabin). Grocery, dining, supplies are just a 15 minute drive away in Driggs. Wonderful stay and a great basecamp for Grand Teton adventures. With the Teton Pass out of commission, it was about 2 hours...but the drive is very scenic and the summer days are very long so there is plenty of time to head out to the Tetons in the morning and get back before dark! Wonderful!

Little Peace of Heaven
Can't say enough about how peaceful this cabin is. We were able to travel to both Yellowstone and Tetons national Park. The road closure requires some extra drive time but the drive was absolutely beautiful. Both parks are stunning. That being said the best part of our stay was the evening sunsets on the porch at the cabin. The birds songs were the only music we needed along with the sound of the wind blowing through the trees which sounded like the ocean. The sunsets are God's masterpieces each night giving us a glimpse of heaven. I've never seen sunsets like the ones of the cabin before in my life. Another bonus was the bed was incredibly comfortable. The mattress was just perfect for my bad back. The owner could not be more responsive. She was very caring about everything regarding our stay.

Colter Cabin, Tetonia
Very nice and secluded cabin with beautiful views. Close enough to local restaurants and grocery stores. Plenty of local places to hike and explore if you don’t feel like making a trip over the mountain pass to access the national parks. The cabin itself was clean, warm, and cozy. Would highly recommend.

A Haven Set Among Beauty
My husband and I were thrilled when we arrived at this wonderful cabin. It was just as pictured and described (do not look at the Google picture taken 15 years ago!). It was surrounded by gorgeous aspen trees and wild flowers. The front porch has a cozy place to sit so see the morning sun, or the rising moon. The back porch and upper balcony (off the master suite) overlook the textured pasture with the beautiful horses grazing and frolicking, and seating is provided. I liked talking to them and when I played my Dean Martin crooner music, they looked up and seemed to like it. The sunset was breath taking, and on the evenings we were home, we sat out there and gazed at the majesty. The instructions for the house were very helpful, and several "things to do" brochures were provided. The cabin was well supplied with linens, towels, and washcloths. It was nice to have a washer and dryer to do a couple of small loads so we could take clean clothes home. We highly recommend this enchanting cabin. Of course the fact that it is fairly close to Jackson Hole, The Grand Teton National Park, and Yellowstone, not to mention all there is to do closer to "home", just made it even better. It will be one of my "happy places" forever!

Stayed here while visiting the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone. The cabin was great! Clean, quiet, and had all the amenities we needed. The only problem was its location in regards to the parks. 1.5 hour drive to Yellowstone and 1 hour drive to Jackson and the Tetons.

It is a secluded very cute cabin! Things were well stocked. Sunset views over the ranch were awesome. There are 12-15 horses in the backyard (neighboring ranch) that are very fun to watch at all times of day! The drive to GTNP, Teton Village, and Jackson goes quick and is beautiful.
