Let’s Plan Your Stay:

Meet Your Hosts

Hi! We’re Jason and Taryn, the family behind Elk Lodge.

We fell in love with the peaceful beauty of Garden Valley and created Elk Lodge as a place where friends, families, and couples can slow down, reconnect, and experience the best of Idaho mountain living.

Over the years, we’ve enjoyed exploring the area’s hiking trails, river adventures, small-town charm, local restaurants, and hidden gems — and we love sharing our favorite spots with guests.

Whether you’re planning a relaxing weekend, an outdoor adventure, or simply a quiet escape, we hope Elk Lodge feels warm, welcoming, and memorable from the moment you arrive.

We’re so glad you’re here and look forward to helping you plan your stay.
