Lakehouse- Private Dock, Fireplace, Hottub, Firepit, Canoes, Bikes, Paddleboards
We also have a 2 bed/bath condo at Tamarack Resort in the newly constructed village for short term rental. Ask me about discounted rates.
Update February, 2021: Just finished full kitchen remodel with new quartz counters, custom backsplash tile, under cabinet lights, sink, faucet and new appliances. Rustic modern patina tin sheet metal bar with 4 bar chairs.
Update June, 2020: Just finished complete downstairs bathroom remodel with custom heated tile, custom tile shower, Bluetooth audio. Its gorgeous! Check out the pictures.
Update September, 2019: Just finished major master bathroom remodel with custom tile floor and shower, 3 shower heads, Bluetooth speaker in ceiling for music while you shower and heated floors...including heated floors in the shower itself!
Update Dec 22, 2018: We just installed all brand new high-end LG kitchen appliances and tiled the kitchen floor and utility room! It looks amazing! All new for summer bookings.
Very comfortable 4 bedroom (4th room is bunk room above garage), 2 bathroom rustic modern remodeled Lake House on Cascade lake with private dock, vaulted ceilings, fireplace, new hardwood floors installed, stainless gas BBQ, laundry room, bar, garage, wrap around deck, hot tub, brand new custom rock fire pit and patio, patio furniture, dock lounge recliners, and complete kitchen. All new furniture and a new 85" flat screen TV. The master suite is located upstairs with a king size bed, chaise lounge, 60" TV and master bath. Downstairs are two guest rooms which each have queen beds. There is an additional loft above the garage with bunk beds. All linens, towels, kitchen utensils and cookware are also brand new. The house has a professional grade water filtration system (all the houses in this area are on a well water system). Even with the professional grade water filtration system some guests notice a slight smell from the water compared to the water they have at home. As you can see from the reviews most guests do not even notice this. There is lots of parking for your snowmobiles, RV or boat. The boat ramp is less than quarter of a mile away. Ready for your vacation or weekend get-away! We take immaculate care of our house and want tenants who will do the same. If you will not take care of it and treat everything better than your own please do not call. Absolutely No Smoking or Drugs! We have two canoes, two standup paddleboards, two cruiser bikes and fishing poles for you to enjoy!
Also, do you want a new top of the line wakeboard/surf boat, fishing boat, jet skis, side by side utv, or snowmobiles to enjoy while you are there? I have a partnership with Redline Recreational Toys in Donnelly Idaho and can offer you a discount for any toy rental during your stay at the Rudolph Retreat. Reservations for should be made early as rentals can book out and be unavailable. Just let me know!!!
Please note the water level of the lake begins to decrease around the middle of August (this varies each year). Because the water is lower it will be a little muddier and not as clear. It is still a great time to paddleboard, canoe, fish and boat but the water will not be as clear and warm as it is in the summer time. The ramp to the dock will also be much steeper because the water level is lower. Our dock ramp is usually disconnected around the first weekend of September (this can vary depending on water level for the year) to prevent damage from ice in the winter time. After the dock ramp is disconnected you will have to climb down a steep embankment of rocks to get to the dock and water level. You can still use the canoe and paddleboards up until the lake freezes over but you will have to climb down the rocks to get to the water. You will see the rates are much lower in the fall and winter in part because of the limited lake access. The Boulder Creek boat ramp and beach is just a quarter mile south of our house. If you are unable to use the dock at our house in the fall due to water level feel free to enjoy the nice beach and boat ramp at Boulder Creek state park.
Winter Disclaimer: This area receives significant snowfall in the winter time. Our driveway is plowed whenever there is more than 3 to 4 inches of snow. There may still be new snow on the 15 foot pathway to the front door and on top of the hot tub cover. We have a snow shovel next to the hot tub and you may have to shovel the cover off to use the hot tub depending on when you arrive and the last snow storm. The BBQ and Patio furniture is put away around November 1 and returned to the deck around May 1.
We finished a major landscape, walkway and prior project that includes a brand-new larger Trex pier, rock steps to pier, sanding beach area by swing with rock steps up to rock landing where parents can sit.
Sleeps maximum of 12 people.
Traveling by plane or don't have room for groceries? Ask us about our grocery shopping service!! Give us a list of what you want and we will have it all put away in fridge and in kitchen before you arrive!
Just purchased extra large aquamat!! So fun! Tie it to the dock, run and jump on it, try to stand on it or just lounge on it.
New 85" TV with soundbar in living room and TVs in master bedroom and guest room.
New for summer 2023....central AC!! Because of the high elevation of Donnelly most homes do not have AC however August is hot! After playing in hot sun all day its wonderful to come inside to cold AC.
We just got two new cruiser bikes. Now we have four total...with cup holders!! Go cruise the neighborhood or to Boulder state park down the road!

About the host
Hosted by Henry Rudolph 'Rudy'
Debbie and Rudy (brother and sister). We were born in Idaho and love Valley County. We both love to ski at Tamarack, snowshoe in the winter and hike, mt bike, wakeboard/surf on lake Cascade in the summer. One of our favorite things to do is invite friends and family to our lake house and sit on the deck and enjoying incredible view of the lake and Tamarack resort just across the lake.
Why they chose this property
We purchased this cabin because we love all of the many recreational opportunities minutes from the cabin and because we love being right on lake Cascade! We wanted a lake house on this part of the lake because it is the best water on the lake (sheltered for smooth water and no crowds). This place had everything we wanted...a dock, waterfront, fireplace, lots of room for friends and family to sleep, a custom rock patio and fire pit and right next to boat ramp. It is also in sheltered part of the lake so your boat is protected. We recently bought two new SUP paddleboards, two canoes and two cruiser bike for you to enjoy!! Now we have brand new high-end LG Black Stainless Steel Kitchen appliances and new tile in the kitchen and utility/laundry room and two fully remodeled bathrooms with custom heated tile.
What makes this property unique
Cabin is on Lake Cascade with a new trex private dock, gorgeous landscaping, wrap around deck with patio furniture, hot tub and fire pit. We recently completed a partial kitchen remodel with brand new LG Black stainless steel high-end appliances and new tile. This is in a sheltered part of lake so you don't get rollers all day long that beat up your boat. All furniture is brand new including new 60" flat screen. Located directly across lake from Tamarack. Take a shower in one of our two newly remodeled bathrooms with custom heated tile floor, multiple shower heads in custom showers and Bluetooth audio. You can watch the snow cats grooming the slopes from the hot tub or just sit on deck in summertime and look at the lake. Enjoy a evening fire as the sun sets next to the lake while enjoying smores or sipping glass of wine in our new fire pit comfy chairs. Lots of room for family and friends with additional bunk room above garage. Please enjoy our two canoes, two paddleboards and cruiser bikes as well! You are also a quarter mile away from the Boulder State park and boat ramp with beautiful beaches and place to put your boat in water to bring to your private dock. Or ask me to have a rental boat/Jet skis/UTV side by side delivered to the house and ready for you to use. There is lots of hiking nearby, fishing right off the dock, hot springs, beaches, skiing, and mountain bike trails nearby.
