About Moore

Moore is a quiet rural town tucked into south-central Idaho's Big Lost River Valley. Home to just over 200 residents, this Butte County community sits along Highway 93 about ten miles north of Arco. Originally settled under the name Island before 1890, Moore grew up alongside the valley's ranches and irrigation canals. Today, it remains a peaceful agricultural hub framed by open fields and dramatic mountain views.

Life here moves at a relaxed pace with direct access to classic Idaho outdoors. The Big Lost River winds through the valley, while nearby rugged spots like the Appendicitis Hill Wilderness Study Area offer endless room for hiking and exploring. Most county services, shops, and schools are a short drive south in Arco, allowing Moore to stay a small, neighborly community where you can enjoy big skies and plenty of quiet.
