Gold Creek Lodge exceeded all expectations. It is a little bit of a drive to get there, but from the moment we arrived, Dave and his incredible team made us feel right at home. Everyone was genuinely accommodating and friendly—it’s clear they love what they do. The excursions were long, scenic, and absolutely unforgettable. Bikes are newer KTMs and evidently well maintained. After a full day out riding, returning to top-notch food and drinks at the lodge was a perfect way to unwind. I can't say enough about how well-run and put together this operation is. Hopefully this place stays around for a long time as we will absolutely be making plans to come back.
This place is nothing short of amazing. The trails were awesome and super challenging. The equipment was perfect. The facility was perfect and surprisingly the food was amazing. The guides and the staff made sure that it was the best possible experience you could have. Probably one of the best riding experiences in America.
Ride dirt bikes on some of the the best single track... Brand new bikes, expertly maintained... Eat incredibly good food... Drink beer... Hang out with a bunch of like minded folks from around the country... Hit the lake and do some wake surfing... Best guides, best staff...
Just do it... Don't think... Do it... Do it!!
The staff, lodging, and knowledge of the riding area is second to none. Great group of guys with a passion for dirt bikes and dedicated to give you the best experience possible. The food is excellent and you definitely won't go hungry. Can't say enough. Best ride ever!!!!!!
Used to be a great place to ride to, grab a bite to eat, something to drink and just chill for a while. Rode over this weekend to see a key coded gate. Sad to see it’s been turned private. What a loss. Doubt it’ll last long not open to the public.
Dave and crew are top tier! From riding, accommodating, food, and atmosphere you will not regret a visit to gold creek lodge!
they don't like locals coming in
New owners don't want your business.
No longer a watering hole for the local community. Sad to see it turn into a tourist trap. Used to love stopping in when out on the trail.
Whoever drives your van is extremely unsafe and you have no phone number listed.

I visited Gold Creek Lodge over the Labor Day weekend time period for the solo riders trip. The lodging was clean and comfy, the free washer and dryer was a nice plus. The food and service were top notch, each meal was carefully crafted (with generous portions) to replenish the calories you burned each day. Being the second to last guided trip for GCL, the bikes were in great shape and well maintained. An onsite mechanic is available for repairs and maintenance.
The guide staff did an excellent job grouping rider skill level and managing daily routes. Each day you ride from the lodge, rip fantastic single track, and enjoy stunning Idaho views. My group burned an entire tank of fuel each day and I loved every second of it. The lodge is only a few minutes up the road from the public dock on Lake Pend Oreille. Each day we went for a refreshing swim in the crystal clear lake.
Off road dirt bikers are generally cool like minded folks, this trip exemplified that. I made lasting memories with new friends on this journey.
Bottom line, I prebooked for 2025 the money in exchange for the memories is well spent.

Wow! Gold Creek Lodge is the ideal dirtbike getaway. The staff is top notch all the way around, the food is second to none, the compound is insanely sick, the riding is what dirtbikers dream of, and it’s just great vibes all the way around. I promise you won’t have better food or service anywhere you go (Chad and Raven absolutely crush it). I went on this trip solo and met some of the coolest people. I felt like I’ve known them for years. I will 100% be going back. Special shout out to Chad, Raven, Robert, CJ, Aiden, Declan, and Dave. Appreciate the great time!

This place is the Baldface of Dirt biking! Everything from the amazing trails, delicious food, and passionate staff is as good as it gets. All the employees at Gold creek share a deep passion for riding dirt bikes, and it shows. The cherry on top is the amazing accommodations and food you get to enjoy after riding every day. I can not say enough good things about this place, will absolutely be going back.
