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!

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.

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!

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

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.

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.

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.

Love the Emerald Gem!~
A real gem~! it's close enough to Ketchum for little conveniences, but far enough away for the stillness and pristine vibe of being remote. Well a-pointed in every way. The owners have thought of every little detail. Warm, cozy, great location - a truly perfect stay.

An Idaho Gem Indeed!!
This is the quintessential "cabin in the woods"!! It is a sweet little cabin with a lovely deck and incredible surroundings!! You will find it hard to pull yourself away from the deck, while listening to the creek babble along across the road, watch the deer wander by, and laugh as the chipmunks taunt your dogs (this is not their first rodeo!!)! Thank goodness for that fire pit on the deck that allows you to sit just an hour our so longer, after the sun sets and the coolness of the crisp autumn air surrounds you!! The cabin is well appointed and has everything you could possibly want...a well stocked kitchen, games, cozy couches, a comfy bed, and a wood stove to top off the entire ambiance of your cabin in the woods! More than a cabin, this place feels like your home away from home the moment you walk through the door!! I would love to know the history of this cabin...I'm certain it has one...but alas the wooden floor just creaked and moaned and kept its secret to itself! A BIG thank you to the hosts for allow dogs of ANY size!! Not all of us own a dog that is under 30 pounds...which seems to be the limit for most rentals! Our golden, Grace, absolutely loved sniffing around and exploring and found it difficult to leave the deck as well! We can hardly wait to return!! Autumn was a beautiful spectacle in the Warm Springs Creek valley....but another season may be calling! ;)

Perfect getaway cabin!
Emerald cabin is a literal gem. The pictures do not do the cabin justice. We really appreciated how dog friendly it was with dog bowls/poop bags/treats/spare leash/lint roller etc. The cabin is it such a great spot, feels private and remote but easy access to downtown Ketchum. We used the creek across the street everyday which was so great for us & our dogs. The host was very quick to respond & answer any questions we had. We absolutely would recommend this stay!

Perfect Peaceful Retreat!
We stayed at the Emerald Gem with our 2 fur babies for a week in August. It was perfect, from beginning to end. It was so peaceful and quiet, but close enough to Ketchum and the Sawtooths to not be a hassle getting to the places we were hiking. The beautiful hot springs down the road were an amazing addition to our stay. We didn't use the fire pit on the front deck b/c it was pretty hot when we were there, but hopefully we will be back one day in cooler weather to enjoy it! Gabriela and Tami were super responsive the one time I had a question - but everything was so well cared for and so well explained, we really didn't need them for anything. So sorry we left the apples in the fridge! we were halfway to Reno when we remembered them! :-)
