We had an excellent experience at the Pine Place. It was very comfortable, clean and well furnished. The owner was very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect - close to restaurants, museums, hiking and biking. We highly recommend Pine Place.
We had a great time staying at this location it was close enough to walk into town and eat! There was plenty of parking

We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay! We could not agree more, the location is perfect and now that a very large leaning tree has been removed, the view is not too bad either:) I love waking to the sight of the lake and ending the day to a beautiful sunset.

We were so happy to be able to accommodate the changes. Life happens and we do not always have the control. Glad you and your lovely wife enjoyed your stay:)
We all had a fantastic time. Place was clean and as listed. Close to town, dog friendly (minus the neighbor that tried to tell me I wasn't allowed to have my dog). She was very snotty. Nothing the owner could fix. Just people. We really enjoyed the walk to town and the cute little place.
This was our second stay here in the winter…close
To everything and the condo is perfect for a family of four or Two couples. Has everything you need in the kitchen, it’s clean and Super Comfortable! The hosts are very Responsive and were flexible
With Our requests, which I really appreciated!!
We are so glad you enjoyed your week in McCall and hope you found the location to be very convenient for you and your family. I know we love being there and with a young child and access to the park, beach, bike paths at Ponderosa, hiking, cafes, etc we rarely even need to get in the car!
The condo was perfectly comfortable for 4 adults! Being pet friendly was key for us so we were very excited to stay here. Location is close enough to town to walk and the view from the balcony is great! Working with the owners was a pleasure!
This third floor condo is beautifully decorated and has everything we needed for our short stay. It was also spotless. I would not hesitate to go back.
This property was perfect. Check-in was a breeze. Decor of the condo was lovely, comfortable and mountain modern. The kitchen was well stocked. This condo was easily within walking distance to the lake and restaurants and all the downtown action. We parked our car in the space provided and did not use it again until we left. This condo had a lovely partial view of the lake from the patio. I would highly recommend a stay here.

Overall good place for a night
I thought it was a little difficult to find which unit it was. I think they should advertise what floor it is on so that way before booking people are aware. The pictures make it look bigger than it really is. Overall it was a decent place to stay for a night.

Hi Rachel! Thank you for the feedback. We greatly appreciate it.
Overall we enjoyed our stay. The place is very nice and comfortable, and we had everything that we needed.
There were about 4 men staying in the adjacent unit, and they were very noisy from 8pm to about midnight. They started again the second night. We pounded on the wall a couple of times and they were quiet from then on.

Outside asthetics are not what is in photos. Listing doesn’t show it’s a 3rd floor apartment so if you are elderly.. then I would look around.Neighbors dogs barked nonstop and their garbage was outside in front of entry door. We had to park off the property as there wasn’t any parking. Mildew on shower. Floors dirty. Windows had dead flies.All containers in bathroom, soap, shampoo, etc was empty. Lightbulbs burned out in bathroom. Bed was nice. No ac. At all. Smokers downstairs. Don’t open the sliding balcony door or you will smell smoke all night. Overall a decent stay but there are way better amenities in McCall for the same or better price. This one is a bit dated. 4/10 star.

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m really sorry to hear parts of your stay didn’t meet expectations. We always want our guests to have a peaceful, comfortable visit.
We were happy to accommodate your same-day request to add an extra night — I’m glad we could make that work for you. The building recently got a full exterior paint job as part of our efforts to keep things clean and well maintained, and we appreciate your patience as that work wrapped up.
The shampoo and soap dispensers can be unreliable, so to protect the bathroom tile we leave them empty but always provide plenty of complimentary toiletries for guests to use instead. As for things like barking dogs or smoke outside — those are frustrating, and while we do have clear no-smoking signs throughout the property, we unfortunately can’t control what neighbors do.
The listing does note the condo is on the third floor, includes one designated parking space, and has heat but no AC. Luckily, during cooler months the mountain air and ceiling fans keep things comfortable. We’ve had the same cleaning team for years with great feedback, but I’ll definitely review your comments with them.
Lastly, we just had a handyman replace all bulbs in early September, so I wish we’d known about the light issue or anything else during your stay — we would have been happy to fix it right away.
We truly appreciate you sharing your thoughts and the photos. Every bit of feedback helps us keep improving, and we hope you still enjoyed some time relaxing in McCall!

Worked for a single night
This property was in a nice location near the lake, and the owners were responsive and easy to communicate with. The photos make the apartment look spacious, when in fact it is very small, and was fairly rundown. By the time you pay the cleaning fee, taxes, and VRBO fees, this place is over nearly twice the advertised price. The cleaning fee is unfair since you are required to wash the dishes and strip the beds, and even asked to do as much laundry as you can. All in all this place was okay for the night, but I only give it two stars for overall value. I feel a little deceived, and wouldn't choose it again.

Thank you for choosing our home for your stay. We are very disappointed to hear how unhappy you were with the space and cleaning fees and really surprised to receive your review in late September. We work very hard to keep our home very clean for our guests and turnover is quite frequent in the summer. Although we do ask our guests to start laundry, we do not expect our guests to stick around and complete the laundry. Sorry to hear you will not be back but do hope you might give it another chance.
About the host
Your host
We’re originally from California and Boston—an East Coast meets West Coast story! In 2019, we made the life-changing decision to move to Boise to raise our son closer to nature. We love spending time outdoors and believe deeply in the power of fresh air and simple moments as a family. Moving to Idaho has been the best decision we’ve ever made—it’s a beautiful life here, surrounded by family-oriented people who genuinely enjoy each day.
Why they chose this property
Before purchasing our property, we stayed just one block away and immediately fell in love with the location. It offers easy access to everything McCall has to offer, yet feels peaceful and tucked away. Our son can play for hours outside and loves sledding on the nearby hills during winter—just a short walk from the house. Up here, he’s like a completely different child—more free, more joyful—and we knew we wanted to create lasting family memories in this very spot. This home isn’t just a rental to us—it’s a special place where we slow down, reconnect, and soak in quiet moments together.
What makes this property unique
It’s all about location and simplicity. When we’re here, we rarely even need to use our car—we bike or walk everywhere. The area is peaceful, family-friendly, and perfectly suited for a small family getaway or a relaxing trip with friends. It’s a place to unwind, explore, and truly feel at home.
