Nestled in an aspen grove and overlooking rolling farm fields framed by rugged mountains, this is the ideal spot to gather, relax, and enjoy time together. Whether for a family reunion or a quiet escape, this farmhouse is ready to be part of your story.
The space
The Moss Family Homestead offers the perfect retreat for families and large groups. There is plenty of space - both indoors and out - for everyone to relax and unwind. The property features a large patio, a small indoor private heated pool (available for an additional $150 per stay), a playground, an outdoor fire pit, and a small kid-friendly zipline. Indoors is a well-stocked recently renovated kitchen, two fridges, a large eating area, a game/theater room, and plenty of room downstairs for outdoor gear. There’s also a separate den area for office work--but we suggest you do as little of that as possible! An adjacent RV pad is available in spring, summer, and fall (110 v and water hook-up but no septic). For outdoor enthusiasts, awaiting in the summer months are world-class fishing on the South Fork of the Snake River, scenic hiking, mountain biking, and motorcycle/ATV trails, and two large nearby reservoirs for boating (Ririe -15 minutes away, and Palisades-30 minutes away). In the winter, enjoy snowmobiling and sledding right outside your door, or head to the nearby ski hill (Kelly Canyon), about 20 minutes away, and enjoy a relaxing soak at nearby Heise Hot Springs (open year-round) on your way back. Heise also includes a large summer pool and water slide, ziplining, a 9-hole executive golf course, and a year-round pizza parlor. Renowned Jackson Hole and Grand Targhee Ski resorts are both less than 90 minutes away, and the world-famous Old Faithful Geyser in Yellowstone National Park makes for a wonderful day trip. Don’t forget to try Big Jud’s in nearby Archer for its world-famous larger-than-life one or two-pound burgers and delicious shakes, or Rainey Creek Country Store in Irwin (25 minutes away in beautiful Swan Valley) for its famous square ice cream cones! The Farmhouse Table at the 7N Ranch near Heise offers a mouthwatering dinner/lunch and Saturday/Sunday brunch menu. For evening entertainment, catch a western dinner show at the Mountain River Ranch near Heise or a melodrama at Pierre’s Theater in Victor (less than 50 minutes away in scenic Teton Valley). Whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation, this beautiful farmhouse is the ideal year-round destination.
