For some reason during the 18 years I've lived in Idaho I had never heard of this until now. The building was built as a university in the 1920's and was later given to the state to be used as a TB ward. Most of the building has been demolished and a new small hospital and dollar store has been built in it's place. But there is one building standing and two local people bought it and use it as a bed and breakfast. We booked a room and when we got there realized that only half of the building has been renovated the other half was in beautiful decay. We explored the Attic and a bunch of gutted out rooms. We also go to see the basement and the owner showed us a room that was used for cremation. I have to say I found this building pretty creepy.
IS IT WORTH SEEING?: Yes, it is beautiful and the owners I'm sure would be happy to give you a tour and the rooms are clean and cheap

A friend and I spent a good part of a day exploring the building that was demolished. It was very interesting not to mention spooky. Im glad I got to see it before it was torn down. The sheriff wasnt happy to find us there but it all turned out good.
