The Harkness Hotel

Welcomes you to Unexpected Luxury

We are a family designed and run luxury boutique hotel located in beautiful McCammon, Idaho in the heart of  Marsh Valley.

The building that houses the hotel was built in 1906 and was originally the McCammon State Bank building (the vault is now the hotel gift shop), with a mercantile store, post office and apartments also located in it. It is listed on the National Historic Registry and its’ architecture is very unique for the area. After an extensive renovation we opened in July 2014.

Historic details of the building include 11′ ceilings, arch-top windows over 8′ tall, two large skylights, original wood floors, mouldings and doors, and period photographs and newspapers displayed throughout.  Some furniture was constructed of original lumber removed during construction (such as the dining table in the Ruby Suite).

Modern touches include the lighting: 14 crystal chandeliers in the hallways, a custom-made light fixture in the lobby that includes over 1000′ of crystal strands and 140 recessed halogen spotlights throughout; three suites with full kitchens including stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops and custom cabinetry; and bathrooms with custom walk-in showers, frameless glass doors and tile imported from Portugal, Spain & Italy.

Our salon & spa are now OPEN! Services are only available on a reservation basis. Book your massage, pedicure, manicure, facial, cut or color today!

The Harkness Hotel offers modern luxury infused with historic elegance.  We look forward to sharing it with you when you stay in one of our 10 rooms.
