We understand that traveling to a remote place in Idaho for a wedding is a pain, but thank you for making the journey to celebrate with us! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need advice.
The nearest airport to the wedding venue is Boise (BOI). We recommend picking up a rental car here as well. Most major airlines fly into BOI (check Southwest and Alaska too!). Once you land, Garden Valley is approximately an hour and ten minutes from the Boise Airport. Boise is such a fun town that we recommend flying in a day or two early if you would like to explore more!
Sixty Chapel—which is not an actual chapel—is located in Garden Valley, Idaho. You'll find yourself winding along the Payette River and up into the mountains for about an hour from Boise. This is one of Kelly and Alyssa's favorite drives of all time.
Note: this is a remote area so we recommend booking accommodations early. Motels/Airbnb/camping are all options for staying overnight. Some folks will be hiring a shuttle to and from the venue from Boise. Please reach out to us if that is of interest and we can connect those who are interested. We want everyone to be safe and have a great time! This is not a road to be drinking and driving on so please plan ahead.
We recommend booking an Airbnb or VRBO in the Crouch, Garden Valley, or Terrace Lakes resort area. The road back to Boise is very dark and winding! We do not recommend driving back to Boise the night of the wedding.
Hotels are few and far between but if you are a camper, there are plenty of campsites and RV parks in the area within walking/driving distance to the venue.
