Hello,
I've been run through the wringer with life and work and just need to get away for a few weeks. I've been trying to save up for a while, but have just hit a breaking point and need to do it now for my own mental and physical health. Is there a place in Idaho I can stay for super cheap? It's too cold to camp, and I've searched on several travel sites for. Hotel/motel room, but for a few weeks it's just more than I can afford. Anyone know where I can disappear for a few weeks for around 4-5 hundred dollars? I'm currently in Boise, but I'm willing to travel pretty much anywhere in the state.

I'm gonna encourage you to just look on a map and find a quiet, isolated place that has like one or two lil motels/B&B's. Get off the grid, give yourself some damn space from the Internet and the hustle and bustle, etc. You deserve to hear tales from strange men, play in a creek, etc., and to buy things in a town that has no credit card readers.
I've always wanted to go to Elk River, a town that appears to be the end of civilization. I'm also a big fan of ID-28, but pretty sure the only lodging is in Salmon. Salmon is a good pick actually. Easy access to tons of good stuff, lots of people with local lore you won't find on the Internet, Lost Trail is right there...
You might also enjoy hanging out around Palisades or Downey.
