City/town information
Twenty minutes from the West Entrance to Yellowstone National Park, Island Park in Idaho features a record-breaking main street and a number of natural areas to explore.
At 36.8 miles, Island Park’s Main Street takes the cake for length. Back in 1947, local resorts and businesses incorporated a long strip of land along Highway 20 as the town of Island Park. This was because Idaho’s liquor laws at the time prohibited the sale of liquor outside of a city’s limits. It’s also the reason the town varies from 500 to 5,000 feet in width. Today, the very long town has grown to be a base camp for outdoor recreation all year-round.

Sightseeing
While some may recognize the name “Johnny Sack” as that of the fictional crime boss of the Lupertazzi family in the HBO TV series The Sopranos, there’s a former Island Park resident named Johnny Sack who’s enjoyed a bit of fame in the decades since he died.
Standing at just 4 feet, 11 inches, Island Park resident Johnny Sack built a cabin near Big Springs in 1929, handcrafting an adjoining water wheel to run electricity to his cabin. His woodworking skills were so fine on both the cabin’s exterior and interior that his property was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. To give an example, one of his ceiling lamps contains 72 individual pieces of wood. Visitors can tour his cabin between mid-June and mid-September from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. Donations are appreciated. The property is administered by the U.S. Forest Service.

With more than 11,000 acres, nearby Harriman State Park and Wildlife Refuge is home to elk, moose, trumpeter swans, and outstanding year-round recreational opportunities. From 1902-77, Union Pacific Railroad investors owned the land, which doubled as a cattle ranch and a vacation spot for the Guggenheim and Harriman families. These days, this beautiful spot is open to the public, and you can visit in the winter and snowshoe, Nordic ski, or ride your fat bike on the park’s 24 miles of groomed trails. In the summer, you can birdwatch, hike and ride horses there. Overnight accommodations include yurts, a bunkhouse, cabins, and dorms. The Railroad Ranch Dormitory and Dining Hall are available for rent and accommodate groups of 15-40 people. The rustic log dormitory building is complimented by a modern dining facility where groups can cook for up to 40 people.

Famous for fly fishing, Henrys Fork stretches 127 miles as a tributary of the Snake River. It runs near town to form the 7,000-acre Island Park reservoir, popular for both anglers and boaters.
Big Springs, a spring in Island Park that releases more than 120 million gallons of water each day, is the source of Henrys Fork. Because of the spring’s constant temperature of 52 degrees and its crystal clear flow, Henry’s Fork is a favorite early-season fishing spot when nearby rivers are cold and muddy. The Henrys Fork is known for its excellent trout fishing. The Big Spring Nature Trail, six miles north of the Island Park Ranger Station, is a half-mile, handicap-accessible trail. Visitors often see wildlife such as osprey, eagles, moose, and deer from the trail.

Float Trip
Warm water float. Between Ennis and Bozeman is a fantastic river float opportunity. Take a few hours to relax and enjoy the cavernous river. The scenery is beautiful and the water is nice. Give yourself a break from all the hustle and bustle and take a relaxing float.
