About this property
Mountain Joy - Pet Friendly - Hot Tub - River access - Trail system - Yard games - Canoe
Mountain Joy - a pet-friendly, cozy, and charming cabin nestled on 2.5 acres of private wooded land with built in trail system for guests to explore. Located in a quiet neighborhood abundant in wildlife that forages throughout the day. The location is perfect for those who love to be surrounded by nature, and if fishing is your passion, the Payette Riverwalk is less than a quarter mile away and is ideal for casting a line and reeling in some impressive catches.
Inside, you'll find everything you need to enjoy a comfortable stay - including fast internet for your browsing and streaming needs. The property includes a variety of outdoor activities including a canoe for exploring the river, a sledding hill (and sleds) for the winter months, and yard games such as cornhole for the warmer seasons.
Live, lounge, and dine in surroundings bright with natural light. Ward off the chill on winter days and summer evenings around the wood-burning stove. Soak in the private outdoor hot tub, or bundle up and circle round a campfire out back where a morning or afternoon cup of coffee can be savored. Whether the weather is cooperating or not, you can always enjoy the outdoors from either of the covered front or back decks.
Cozy accommodations for up to 8 guests in three comfortably appointed bedrooms and two bathrooms. Downstairs is the master bedroom with queen bed and backyard access. Guests will also find a hall access tub/shower combo bathroom. Upstairs are the two guest bedrooms – one with a queen, full, and twin sized bed, and the second guest bedroom with one queen and one twin-sized bed. The upstairs hall access bathroom features a spacious shower.
Well-equipped kitchen has plenty of room for a chef or two without getting in each other's way. Serve up a great meal at the counter, dining room table, or out back al fresco during the summer months. The neighborhood's paved roads make for comfortable walking or biking outdoors, and guests are just a quarter mile to the local rail trail trailhead – a great spot for walking, biking, or Nordic skiing. Thrill seekers will find The Activity Barn sledding hill less than a half mile up the road. Take a tour of the nearby McCall Smokejumper Base and be sure to tell our wild land firefighters “thanks!” for all they do. Downtown McCall shopping and dining can be found four and a half miles north of the property – close enough for convenience, but far enough away to ensure peace, quiet, and wooded privacy for guests during their McCall vacation.
The Payette Riverwalk is less than a quarter mile away - 41 acres of riverfront property located at 250 Moonridge Drive. This land is protected under a conservation easement held by the Payette Land Trust, which protects the river from development, conserves wildlife habitat, and allows responsible access to the river. The Payette Riverwalk is now open to the public for bike and pedestrian traffic - no motor vehicles. People can fish, paddleboard, float the Payette for 2 hours by launching at the Red Bridge and taking out at Moonridge. 5 vehicle parking is available, and it is just a short walk from this property.
Relax year-round indoors or out - with its prime location and range of activities available, you're sure to create lasting memories during your stay at Mountain Joy!

We had a great time at Mountain Joy Cabin! It was extremely clean and had everything we needed. We used the trails around the cabin every day during our stay which our dogs loved since they got to be off leash. The back yard is huge, and deer traveled through quite often. Trip communication from the host was wonderful, they were helpful. Would definitely rent again!

We absolutely loved our weekend stay here. The house is in a quiet neighborhood, surrounded by trees. We saw lots of local wildlife, deer and little chipmunks, and it is also only a short drive from town. It was a great spot to stay in the summer and it looks like it will be really cozy in the winter time, we'll definitely be back!!

Charming Cabin with Great Amenities and Atmosphere
We had a wonderful stay at this cozy little cabin! It was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and fully stocked with everything we needed, from kitchen essentials to linens and bedding. The neighborhood was peaceful and welcoming, and we especially loved relaxing in the hot tub, sitting around the fire pit, and watching wildlife pass through the yard.Check-in and check-out were super easy, and the whole process was smooth. The carpet did have some wear and a few stains, which is pretty typical for a well-loved rental, but it didn’t affect our overall experience at all.We had a great time and would definitely stay here again!

great location away from the hubbub of town but close enough to grocery shop or eat out. House had everything we needed and then some. Fishing in the Payette river a short walk and sportsmans access fishing pond a 2 mile drive away. Fire pit and hot tub were hits with all. Would definitely stay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Mountain Joy house. The house was equipped with everything we needed to accommodate a family of 10. We loved the peaceful setting. We could sit outside and watch a family of deer walk across the backyard. It is a quick drive to downtown McCall. Will definitely stay at this house again.

Phenomenal stay. Wild life roaming in the distance every morning as I ate breakfast on the porch. 5 min walk to the river with some great days of fly fishing, wood burning stove for the cool nights and hot tub in the evening. It was simply perfect. Only a few miles from town and mountainous scooped of ice cream and some great restaurants. I’ll definitely be back.

We were so impressed with all of the attention to detail for the convenience and enjoyment of our stay at this home. With a little something for everybody, you could spend your entire time at this home and enjoy every minute of it. Toys for younger kids; books, games, and movies for all ages and interests; woods to explore; fully stocked kitchen (they even had a coffee grinder and a few pantry staples); most enjoyable hot tub; and a relaxing fireplace - all of this would definitely cause us to want to come back!

Stayed at Mountain Joy over the 4th of July weekend. Was fun to be outside of the crowds of McCall but close enough that we could go downtown for fireworks. Beautiful cabin with very comfortable beds. Kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed playing a few rounds of corn hole. Neighborhood is quiet. Really close to the river trail, which is a very pleasant place to walk. The rental was very clean and well maintained. I would absolutely stay there again!

This property/cabin was just what this family needed! Beautiful inside and out with tons of pine all around us! It was amazing watching a family of deer peeking in and around the backyard throughout our stay. Access to household appliances made it possible to make some of our family favorite dishes, just minutes from town but yet felt further out with privacy. Easy walk to the Payette River, honestly one of the best out of town stays we’ve ever had! Can’t wait to book again!

Thank you for choosing DoneRight Management & Vacation Rentals.
The property was in a great location, close enough to town for convenience, but secluded. The cabin was very clean. The kitchen was well equipped which was great because we ate in. We enjoyed our stay. I do wish there had been closets in all bedrooms. That was the one thing that was a little bit of an issue, since we were all adults.
Overall it was great!

Very clean, inside and outside of the property. Well stocked. Loved the layout of the cabin. The upper bunk room was a hit with all of the grandkids. It was the perfect place for an enjoyable family getaway in the mountains.
The check in and check out process was easy. The management team was professional, warm and proactive in welcoming us to the property.
The cabin is located nearby the Payette river, great place to hike, canoe, paddleboard and fishing. Lots of trees surround the grounds that feature a well maintained lawn of green mowed grass.
Back porch has chairs, tables, hot tub. Very relaxing! Saw lots of deer feeding nearby. Super experience.
We would definitely return to the cabin. Highly recommend it.

We surprised our 3 grandchildren and brought them to the Mountain Joy cabin. They were thrilled with the bedroom with all the beds in one room! Lots of games to play and lots of snow! They took their tubes and went down the small hill in the backyard and had fun doing that. We really enjoyed the fireplace and the hosts had everything we needed in the kitchen. They stocked enough firewood for our 3 night stay and everything was clean and the beds were very comfortable. If you want to do tubing at the activity barn be sure to purchase well in advance. They were booked solid for the time during our stay but they were nice enough to give us a reservation for 3 on our last day there. Lots of fun tubing down the big hill! We would definitely stay here again! It was the perfect snow-cation location!

The property was very clean and the beds were comfortable. You could tell that much thought had gone into making this cabin family friendly. There were two highchairs, a pack and play, games, toys and even a toilet training seat on the upstairs toilet. The kitchen was very well stocked. I don't think we lacked anything! We did call the company at one point as the days we were there happened to be a little cold and rainy and the hot tub was not maintaining heat in the morning. They said they were aware of the problem. Hopefully they fixed it for the next group. Thankfully, it heated back up for the evening, so we really couldn't complain. We would definitely stay here again!
