It's a popular travel spot within Idaho, but it is not known if you are not from the state itself. In the summer, the town is booming with water sports ( the lake is actually pretty warm, even though the city is at 5,000 feet) In the winter, it is a popular destination for skiing.

I highly recommend this hotel as it is centrally located to everything in the city. We enjoyed the nightlife and also had a delicious brunch at Jam. It was a huge wait, but if you have the time, GO. The food was well worth the wait! We also got to enjoy Canada Day by watching fireworks at t...
