Our St. Joe Retreat is located at the east end of the historic town of Avery, Idaho which was once a major transition point for the Chicago Milwaukee St. Paul and Pacific Railroad, later known as the Milwaukee Road. The remote town now serves as a recreational hub for the upper St. Joe River drainage which offers endless outdoor activities.
The home is within 200 yards of the confluence of the St.Joe and the North Fork of the St.Joe River. Come to Avery in the summer to fish, kayak, raft, bike the Hiawatha trail, backpack and pick berries. Come in the fall to hunt. Come in the winter to snowmobile, cross country ski and snowshoe. Come anytime to experience nature at its best in a slow laid back environment. The flora, fauna, wildlife, scenic vistas and activities in this area provides a virtual wonderland for outdoor enthusiasts.
The home is nicely equipped to provide you comfort in a remote setting. It is outfitted to comfortably accommodate six. There are two bedrooms each furnished with a full size bed along with a twin bed. The living room area provides a couch that expands into a comfortable queen bed. There is one bathroom with a shower.

Scott and Linda,Thank you so much for the card and wine; it was very thoughtful. We loved our stay and wished it could have been longer. The house is awesome and we hope to come back some time. The only suggestion I have is to better check for and keep up on the bees. We were unable to use the back porch; when we walked out of the slider we were stung several times. I believe there is a hive under it. Thank you we had a great time. Jay and Heidi
