Twin Falls is a nice little "city" in southern Idaho. I love the bridge that you have to cross to get to it crossing the Snake River Gorge. Pretty impressive. Lots of people driving in for work and on vacation. It's a busy place. The highway heading north to Shoshone and eventually to Sun Valley was as busy as any other two lane highway I've seen. Lots of cars. Plenty of places to eat and plenty of hotels and gas stations.

The Snake River Canyon is an amazing, truly stunning area. We took a boat tour & it was great. The people were friendly, lots of places to eat, shop, snack, and tons of things to go explore or do outside. Everywhere we went was well kept, no trash, or abandoned buildings. Felt totally safe, a great place for a family vacay, or a couples getaway.

My friend and I loved the location, near enough to drive to Rexburg for Yellowstone Bear World (a drive through animal park where we bottle bed bear cubs, along with about half a dozen other adults--not just for kids!). Also loved Craters of the Moon, with all kinds of lava tubes and strange plants that looked like snow (plants were about an inch high and very white) on the black lava--better than Big Island, Hawaii, but not as well advertised. Loved the Raptor Center with "Fall Flights" in Boise, along with the old penitentiary there and a fascinating and unusual botanical garden. Also went to Stanley, and between Stanley and Challis, we explored ghost towns of Bonanza, Bayhorse, and one other ghost town with Boot Hills. Nice that Twin Falls is centrally located for southern Idaho, perfect weather and leaves turning in mid-September. Shoshone Falls was barely flowing, and a native of Twin Falls told me it is seldom if ever flowing freely as you see in photos of Shoshone Falls. An ice cave near Twin Falls was fun to tour, too.

We were visiting family and the Charming Cottage was a great choice. It is not far from many attractions, and there is a lovely, recently regentrified Main Street with restaurants, taverns and shops.

Twin falls is a great place. But the Motel 6 is a dump and appears to be a multiroom Crack house and brothel. The room was disgusting, tiny without any amenities. It probably was rented by the hour. For $20 more the Surestay a couple blocks down was awesome. Great sushi place just down the street called Tokyo Sushi. Try old downtown twin falls for breweries and easy walk around fun.

If you wanna see a beautiful site of the shoshone falls and explore the rock creek, go to the south hills.... Natural beauty of the wilderness is 100% available. OTHER THAN THAT, Twin can be a black hole to most locals.
