Mike and Kelly (owners) and VACASA personnel (Brent and Sara)are the absolute best. The rustic home just 5-10 minutes out of McCall was wonderful with grouse and chicks coming through the yard daily. A doe and her two fawns also passed through frequently. It is an open range and we had cattle also wander through. Please don't mistake my use of the term rustic to mean roughing it. The house was roomy with all the amenities. The weather was super. McCall knows how to treat tourists/guests. There is so much to do in and around McCall, that we just ran out of time. We will definately return and hope to stay at Mike and Kelly's place again.
Just far enough outside of McCall to escape the crowds if needed. Great floor plan for gathering and making meals together.
We loved our stay here! We’ve stayed twice before, but first time with this owner. We love the upgrades they did! The decor and utilization of each room was great and it was REALLY clean! We can’t wait to come back.
This is our second time stay in this house, you can see the beautiful view every window in the house. Very nice and clean! We will book it again when we visit McCall.
This is a perfect efficient cabin for an intimate small group or couple or single. Love the great view of aspens on the South side. Beds and appliances have been recently upgraded. Very comfortable Winter retreat.
