The Sawtooth Lodge is located deep in the mountains, without service. We will be nearly 1 hour from the closest town. The South Fork Lodge is the closest accommodations.

Please reach out to us if you are unable to camp and we can try to accommodate you at our venue or feel free to look into this as an option. https://www.southforklodgeidaho.com
