The cabin it's a beautiful location right outside of Wallace Idaho, which is a quaint little town. lots of events going on. I would suggest that you pick this home for your next travels to that area. I would definitely be going back. I’d like to say thank you to Jules for reaching out and meeting all our needs. Not far from the trail of Coeur d’Alene or the trail of Hiawatha. We had a wonderful bike ride when we were there..
