Buhl Cabin | The "Croas" Nest on The River w/Geothermal Hot Tub near Hagerman Idaho

3 Bedroom Cabin in Buhl

With spectacular views and geothermal hot tub, this cozy log home is a special place to retreat and recharge! Perched on the hillside overlooking the mighty Snake River, the spacious front porch offers a classic view of the Southern Idaho rural countryside, with basalt buttes and distant farmland. Located just a few miles from Miracle and Banbury Hot Spring Resorts and the 1000 Springs Scenic Byway, the area has ample opportunities for water recreation, hiking, sightseeing and bird watching!
The home offers a rustic charm with an array of modern furnishings, antiques and artistic touches. It is clean and comfortable with with all the modern amenities. Radiant floor heat will keep you cozy in winter and the A/C comfortable in summer. A fully equipped kitchen with complimentary coffee and tea during your stay.
Drinking water is provided as the property has only a geothermal water source. Geothermal water means that the water is coming out to the ground hot. Having only a geothermal water source means that the house, faucets and showers will not have a cold water option. The water coming out of the pipes will initially feel cooler and then as you run the faucet the water will eventually get warmer until it is at it's full heat. It is never scalding, just a really nice temperature that is wonderful for bathing, showering and for the hot tub.
The Space:
The ground floor hosts an open kitchen/dining/living great room, a half bath and master bedroom. The living area has a large screen, WIFI equipped TV to access your Amazon, Hulu or Netflix accounts in addition to a DVD player. You will also find a Room & Board leather couch with a California queen sized hide-a-bed and twin bed sleeper sofa/chair.
The dining room table can expand from an intimate two person seating arrangement into a large table that can accommodate 8 people.
The Master Bedroom has a queen bed, chaise lounge, walk-in closet and private full bath equipped with a claw foot tub. Laundry facilities are also part of the walk-in closet in this space.
Upstairs are two “open-air” loft style bedrooms both with queen beds. These two bed rooms are not completely private but are rather open to the rest of the house as lofts typically are. Please make sure that your entire party is aware of this and comfortable with the open air architecture of the house. The upstairs also has a full bath with shower, writers nook and private deck.
The jewel of the house is the front porch! Gorgeous views anytime of day or night and bird watchers will love it. There is always a set of binoculars there waiting for you! Watch the full moon rise over the butte or just relax with a cup of coffee or glass of wine!
Why spell it "Croas" Nest instead of Crows Nest?
The builder of the house and a dear friend, Dave Croasdaille pronounced Crowsdale, created his "nest" up on the hill outside of Buhl when he retired. Indeed you feel like a bird perched on the porch almost level with the flight path of ospreys, herons, pelicans, birds of prey and migratory song birds. Dave loved creating ceramics, dancing, living a health conscious lifestyle and gardening. His passion was growing daffodils and planted over 4,000 daffodil bulbs around the property. Neighbors enjoyed receiving bouquets of daffodils in early spring from "Daffodil Dave." To this day we have continued Dave's tradition of planting, growing and delivering daffodils! Staying at the Croas Nest from mid-March thru April is a special treat, not to be missed! This is your chance to live in fields of daffodils!
Even after the spring bloom the gardens, landscaping and water features create a peaceful, pleasant atmosphere all year round. We want our guests to unwind, re-charge and soak up the healing hot waters and beauty of the area!
Your Hosts:
Amy and Jay live one mile from the Croas Nest and are usually available on a short notice to help with anything during your stay. Don’t hesitate to call or text. Amy is an artist and her studio is located in the garage at the Croas Nest. She may come and go from the studio during your stay. If you need something and she is there, don’t hesitate to knock on the studio door. Otherwise your privacy will be respected and she will not disturb you.

Summary: I wanted a couple days somewhere quiet and beautiful with my sister and daughter. This home is so lovely. It’s filled with beautiful art, stocked with everything you may need and there is plenty of space for everyone. The thermal tub was my favorite part. I woke up every morning and sat in the hot water watching the steam and listening to the sounds of birds. The owners were always responsive and I left feeling like I had a real vacation. I will definitely be returning!

Summary: We used the front porch, within visual distance of the Snake River mornings for coffee and evening for R and R. Our vacation included daily hiking to local waterfalls. We soaked in the mineral springs hot tub nightly. Since restaurants are scarce, we brought our food and used the well supplied kitchen for healthful meals. W enjoyed doing the puzzles, but all had missing pieces.Suggest replacement. Host was quick to respond to questions. Cabin was WELL worth the price. One of our best family vacations.

Summary: My husband and I stayed here for our 18 year anniversary. It was more house than 2 of us needed but the hot springs hot tub made us decide to rent anyway. The front porch is lovely, the house is curated with care and feels authentic, unlike most online house rentals. The views of the snake river are amazing. We watched the full moon rise from the hot tub. We also loved that there was a TV to watch Netflix without our kids! Amy gave us a tour of her studio and offers permanent jewelry which is fun as well.
