Welcome to Southfork Lodge

Where wilderness meets hospitality, and every stay tells a story.

Tucked deep in the Boise National Forest along the banks of the South Fork of the Payette River, Southfork Lodge is more than a place to stay—it’s a place to connect. Built in 1938 and thoughtfully reimagined by new ownership, the lodge is a return to authenticity, simplicity, and adventure.

Here, guests don’t just check in—they settle in. They slow down. They breathe the pine-filled air, dip into Kirkham Hot Springs, fly fish at sunrise, gather around a crackling fire, and eat meals that feel like they were made just for them—because they were.

The Guest Experience Vision

At Southfork, every part of the guest journey is designed with intention, warmth, and a sense of place. We’re building a lodge experience rooted in:

• Hospitality that feels personal, not transactional
• Menus inspired by the land, the forest, the seasons, and the people who came before
• Moments that spark connection—between families, with nature, or within oneself
• Adventure that’s accessible and deeply memorable—from whitewater to wildlife, Polaris rides to porch swings
• A return to something real, where guests feel grounded, seen, and genuinely cared for

A Place to Build Something Special

We’re creating something rare: a small team with big purpose. Everyone here plays a key role in crafting the guest experience—from housekeeping and kitchen staff to adventure guides and management. We collaborate, we support each other, and we take pride in the details that turn a visit into a memory.

We believe great hospitality starts with a happy, empowered team. That’s why we offer a positive work culture, competitive pay, shared bonuses, and time to enjoy the very wilderness we help others discover.

If you believe in thoughtful service, natural beauty, and creating something truly unique—you’ll feel at home here.

Join us. Let’s build the Southfork story together.
