Brave Girl Camp is held at the most perfect place we could find...Melody's home on the banks of the beautiful Boise River...a place we've named Brave River Ranch. We have spent months and months making it beautiful and magical...a place you will never forget!  We love Idaho and want to share all of the reasons why, and we are showcasing the best of everything we could find...all in one place.

The décor is artsy mountain rustic. The gathering room in the Ranch House is warm and roomy with plenty of windows to take in the breath-taking views from every room. The wood-burning fireplace is cozy, the living room is wrapped in a huge custom sofa with a red carpet in the middle...just waiting for our Red Carpet sessions that are such a memorable and important part of each camp. This is a place where we hope  you will feel right at home.

The Eagle Hilton Garden Inn...Brave Girl Camp includes 4 nights at the lovely Hilton Garden Inn, a short 10 minute bus ride from the Ranch. You'll share a room with one of the other Campers; you'll have your own comfortable queen bed. Enjoy the decks overlooking the peaceful river or the spacious, comfortable lobby with lots of areas for relaxing and conversation. You'll enjoy a delicious breakfast at the Hotel  before boarding the Brave Bus, bound for the Ranch!

You can learn all about this beautiful hotel here.


The Brave Bus
This is the wonderful old bus that will take you from the Hotel to spend the days at the River Ranch! You'll be invited to leave your permanent mark on the inside of the bus....we'll show you when you get here! (Note: The Brave Bus will not stay plain for long...she'll be dolled up in true Brave Girl style soon!)

The Weather
The Treasure Valley enjoys four distinct seasons with snow in the winter and hot, sunny days in the summer. We'll let you know exactly what to expect for your retreat date.

What to Bring
We'll contact you personally well ahead of time and let you know exactly what to bring. It won't be much besides clothes (layers for unpredictable weather), a few art supplies, and your tooth brush! 

The River
The lovely Boise River is just steps from the Ranch...we'll take daily walks along the wide, meandering river path...guaranteed to create some of the warmest memories you will take home from your camp experience. Bring a camera! You'll want to remember every minute.
