Great stay at a nice motel in Donnelly, Idaho.
My family stayed in a 5 bed family room at the motel. It was very spacious, and the beds were comfortable. The kitchenette had a table, 2 burners, a refrigerator, sink, and everything we needed to cook and serve food. I was very pleased with the room and the personable front desk staff who were very helpful.

In town for a wedding!
Check in and out process was easy. The staff was helpful. The room was updated, very clean and comfortable. The bed wasn't comfortable for my husband and I - but I know that can depend on different people...too hard for our tastes. We enjoyed our stay at Boulder Creek Inn while we were in town for a wedding.

The service was excellent, kind, and extremely accommodating. Sam was very helpful and pleasant to speak with, and we even had the chance to see her pig. We were visiting the area for the McCall Smokejumpers Hockey Team 🏒
