Mountain Home was originally Rattlesnake Station, a a stop along the Overland Stage road. With the arrival of the Oregon Short Line railroad around 1883, the post office was moved downhill and West to where the city now sits and renamed Mountain Home. The Mountain Home Historical museum, located in a Carnegie Library Building, circa 1907, has on display items related to agriculture, the military and mining and Native American artifacts. Bruneau Dunes State park, a few miles South of Mountain Home, is the site of dunes rising as high as 400 feet above small lakes. The park is inviting for fishing, bird watching, camping, hiking and swimming and it has a public observatory open to visitors. Three Island State park East of Mountain Home, near Glenns Ferry on the Snake river is worth a visit.
