About this property

McCall ski cabin with vintage vibes and modern amenities, pet friendly 🌲

We look forward to hosting you! Vintage vibes meets modern amenities in the Driftwood Cabin. This special cabin in a quiet forested setting has been remodeled inside and out with new flooring, paint, plumbing, appliances, beds, mattresses and bedding and new furniture!

The Driftwood Cabin is perfect for families or friends looking to escape into the fresh mountain air and sits on a quiet street in the forest less than a block from the lake and an easy hop into town about a mile down Warren Wagon Road.

Winter days are no match for the warm and welcoming cabin with remote controlled fireplace, wrap around picture windows. Cozy up and watch movies on the new Samsung Frame Smart TV with high-speed Wifi for streaming; or grab the sleds and race down the gently sloped dead-end street that ends at the lake. In Summer, enjoy a drink on the sunny HUGE deck, roast marshmallows at your campfire under the stars and soak in the sun on the large and private property near Payette lake.

20% discount for longer bookings. 10% discount for weekly bookings and please feel free to ask any questions!

What's nearby:
This updated, cozy cabin sits on a quiet, dead-end street that ends at the lake and is centrally located near all McCall has to offer. It is less than a mile from the Shore Lodge, near Ponderosa State Park, and North beach. Driftwood sits in a beautiful and quiet forest location but close to the center of downtown McCall where you'll find cute shops, restaurants, breweries, and recreational outfitters.

Come summer, the shores of Payette Lake are ideal for swimming, paddle boarding, and boating from Mile High Marina. View the lake from the 900 sq ft deck overlooking the forest with filtered lake views. Swim at Rotary Park or travel 5min to the North Beach boat ramp for canoe and paddle board rentals on the Upper North Fork of the Payette River. Payette Lake Club is members only. In the winter, skiers and snowboarders will find prime Idaho powder at Brundage Mountain Ski Resort (10min) or spend the day at Tamarack (25min), rent snowmobiles through Cheap Thrills (5min) or soak your worries away at Gold Fork Hot Springs (30min).

The Driftwood cabin boasts a full kitchen of brand-new high-end stainless-steel appliances just installed with a full-sized washer and dryer! We have also installed a state-of-the-art water filtration system, new hot water heaters and new plumbing fixtures, new mattresses and bedroom furniture with quality seasonal Pottery Barn bedding throughout.

The perfect getaway!

My family looks forward to hosting yours.

House was awesome- one of the few times that the pictures were not as great as the house itself! The cabin had everything we needed, was clean and quaint, and close to everything. Kids loved sledding down the driveway, we loved there being sleds for them to use. Will be back!

Thank you so much for the review. We purchased this cabin in early December and have tried hard to make sure it is a very special place to stay. We love the proximity to the lake and town. Looking forward to warmer weather when we hope our guests can take advantage of the many upgrades and plans we have in process to take in the warm summer nights and water sports! We would be happy to welcome you back anytime.

Sarah was a great host. She’s very quick to respond to questions. The amenities were great. Comfy bed and well stocked kitchen. The place was clean. We’d definitely stay again. We didn’t use the balcony as it was chilly outside at night and we were out exploring all day. One note: part of the railing on the balcony is missing. Hopefully it will get replaced soon. Just a safety concern.

Hi Lori - Thank you so much for staying with us. We appreciated it so much and are glad you had a great time. One note about the deck is that it is open seasonally - typically we close it in early October when snow is expected to fall. At that time we need to remove some of the rails for winter because the snow sheds from the cabin and can damage the deck when they are attached. Snow drifts can come down in feet - which is amazing to see when everything is covered in white! But it does require that we close the deck for safety. Hope that helps clear up why the rail is removed. Snow is a little late this year - praying for snow and a good ski season!

Thanks for the review! The cabin is located off Warren Wagon road down a quiet street, we love the wildlife and forest but but renters should be aware its about a 5min drive (1.3miles) to downtown. In the winter the street is perfect for sledding since its on a dead end. The road is getting graded in October to smooth out any pot holes too!

Summer fun

The house was perfect. The bedroom with bunks worked well for the kids and the deck was great. It was a great launchpad for many adventures. We all slept so well at night and played games. (We would recommend Uno No Mercy). Kitchen was well equipped and the new laundry machine was great for the kids dirty clothes.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Marshall

Host profile image
We are a family from Idaho who just purchased our dream cabin in McCall. We have three active little boys who have taught us that weekends at the cabin, with a movie and popcorn, after a long day of skiing, or playing on the lake, is time well spent.

Why they chose this property

The Driftwood cabin is our family dream come true. We had been looking for years and waiting for the perfect spot. We finally found it in this sweet cabin in an incredible location. The cabin is tucked in the woods and offers privacy, great views, proximity to the lake and is just a few minutes from all that downtown McCall has to offer. We are so grateful for this cabin and our ability to share it with you. Please respect this special place.

What makes this property unique

- The cabin sits on a quiet dead-end road that is slopped and is perfect for sledding in the winter. I cannot count the number of hours my kids spend outside on sleds.
- The lake is viewable from living room windows in the winter, and always through the trees. The Cabin sits about 100 yards from the lake. Guests have lake access, renters do not.
- This is a well-loved, lightly used cabin that is very special to our family. It is not a business; we care deeply about your experience.
