The Lodge at Palisades Creek
Irwin, Idaho
An Orvis-endorsed fly fishing lodge at 3720 Highway 26 in Irwin, Idaho, in the Swan Valley, operating since 1990. Cabins and riverside dining sit on the property, which can host up to thirty-two guests under one roof for group retreats and corporate offsites with full-service meals. The business also runs the Swan Valley Fly Shop at the corner of Highway 26 and Highway 31, stocking flies, equipment, clothing and gear. Guides are described as hand picked, and non-lodging day trips open for reservation each May 1 while main stem trips book year round. The lodge won Orvis Fly Fishing Lodge of the Year in 2014 and was a finalist again for 2026. Waterfowl hunting and an area activities program round out what is offered away from the water.
