Old School Inn Archer

We loved being at the Old School Inn. The owners are awesome and easy to contact. It had lots of room, lots of bed, lots of fun things for the kids. We had about 90 people coming and going during our stay. Most of them stayed the night and we had plenty of room. We will be returning in a couple of years for our next big reunion!

We rented this for a large work event and we had a blast. Great place to have activities and lots of people!

The Old School Inn Archer turned out to be the perfect family reunion spot. We are pretty serious about our reunions which always include a theme and tons of organization. This reunion had an "academy" theme focused "learning by study and also by faith." Adults all shared something they have learned in their profession and through faith during brief "study halls" each morning and evening. The rest of the day was filled with art classes/crafts and physical education classes/games. Given our focus we were looking for an old school house and this ended up being the perfect one! We had 34 people attend and everyone was able to sleep in a comfortable bed and an air conditioned room. The kids enjoyed sleeping in the largest room filled with queen/twin sized beds and bunk beds. Adults had separate rooms, some of which also had bunkbeds for younger children needing to stay close to mom and dad. They gym, library, and cafeteria were incredible. Kids could play ball, ride scooters, and be active in the gym while others enjoyed playing cards and doing puzzles in the library. Everyone was happy! The gym also had a large screen and projector with sound system that we used for movies, slide shows, and Powerpoint presentations. The kitchen was great with lots of fridge/freezer storage space and plenty of seating. Nicole and Justun were great hosts. They responded to our text messages quickly and made sure we were comfortable without hovering over us. They provided us with suggestions for where to go and what to do. We especially enjoyed our trip to the warm slough to swim. We also rented the Strike Zone (bowling alley) for a couple of hours at BYU-Idaho and had pizza delivered. Nicole and Justun taught the entire group some country line dances in the gym for our "back-to-school" dance which was awesome! This place has everything you need for a great family reunion or large group get-together.

The property is 105 years old, still resembles an old elementary school in many ways, the floors creak, it's old, the property is accurately shown on the listing. We had planned to stay 4 nights with all children and grandchildren. Everyone had so much fun we extended 2 more nights. What property offers a full gym to play basketball, volleyball, ride bikes, trikes, go swing on a large swing set, play in the dirt with toy trucks and organize a softball tourney? For our family, each family had a room with a door, many had own bathrooms. Created great memories and plan to go back. Owners were available, helpful. Great experience!

We had so much fun holding our family reunion at Old School Inn Archer. The owners were easy to communicate with and kind in responding to our questions. We loved the cousins bunk room, the fun outdoor activities, and especially the gymnasium where members of the family of all ages spent hours of fun. We were able to get family pictures on the front steps of the school. The kitchen was perfect for preparing food for a big group. We hope to return for future reunions!

The house was perfect for a big family. Enough space that you do not feel on top of each other. Also there are places in the inn that you can get away for a peace and quiet if needed. The only problem we had was with the breaker in the kitchen went out while cooking and we could not get a hold of the property manager to get power back on. Cell phone service was spotty which created it difficult to get in contact with property manager when help was needed. Once we did get a hold of manager he was very helpful and attentive. Overall very fun and kind property managers.
