Gannett, ID

Tucked about eight miles southeast of Bellevue, Gannett offers a quiet rural pocket in southern Blaine County. Surrounded by open hay fields, small farms, and horse properties, it has a grounded atmosphere compared to the resort towns farther up the valley. Life here centers on open space, mountain views, and quiet country lanes, all within a short drive of Highway 75.

The area grew out of early ranching and railroad roots in the late 1800s and still holds onto its agricultural charm. Families are part of the Blaine County School District, so heading into Bellevue and Hailey for school, groceries, and work is a quick, straightforward trip. For anyone looking for acreage, room for animals, and a relaxed pace while staying connected to the Wood River Valley, Gannett is a wonderful spot to settle down.
