Travel
A quick note about Stanley:
Stanley is a small, casual, remote mountain town with very limited lodging and no Uber/Lyft. Guests will need a rental car or to carpool with others. Most guests will stay 1–2 nights, but this is completely up to you based on your travel plans. Hotels in the Stanley/Redfish area fill up VERY fast, so we strongly recommend booking lodging early.
Another option besides hotels are Airbnb and Vrbo. Sawtooth Vista Rentals has some nice cabins for rent, too, if you want to go in on one with a group.
There are also camping options in the area for those who enjoy that. Designated campgrounds will fill up fast, but there are also plenty of dispersed camping spots if you do a little research.
Listed below are some of the more affordable places to stay.
