Idahoans Can Stay Overnight in Eerie Former Polygamist Compound
Over the years, Idaho has been home to some crazy stories that have made national headlines, and even national series' on Netflix.
Take for example Lori Vallow's story and trial--and Netflix couldn't even wait.
Another example could be Abducted in Plain Sight--a true crime documentary on Netflix that is all about an Idaho child abduction (a totally crazy story).
One of the largest "crime" series' from recent years however, took place in Utah--not far from Idaho. Netflix released an original series called "Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey" all about Warren Jeffs--the leader of a large FLDS group--resurfacing the fascination with him and that particular faith, of which polygamy is common practice.
While the FLDS is VERY different from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints that is very present in Idaho--these types of stories are big here.
Most recently, 'Trust Me: The Prophet', has been a Netflix sensation.
Just across the state line, in Utah, sits a former compound belonging to Warren Jeffs and now, you can stay overnight.

Would you visit this thing!?
You don't need to worry about Warren Jeffs' friends or family coming to kidnap you at the bed and breakfast because they no longer own it. It's now owned by folks who have dubbed it "Zions Most Wanted Hotel". While many of Jeffs' wives and followers lived there--he never actually got around to moving in there himself. The photos are certainly eerie.
We had a difficult time finding it online as it seems their website is down, but we called them and they did indeed confirm they're open for business! One YouTube user commented on a tour video of the place and wrote:
I actually stayed here with my husband this past April on accident. The people there were SOOO NICEEE!! But for sure got a weird vibe.
Want to get ahold of them for your stay? We recommend a phone call: 800-368-9682.
Heads up, this place is in SOUTHERN Utah, so you might be in for a bit of a drive.
