Modern Mtn Retreat: Lakefront, Direct Beach Access & Hot Tub by Tamarack Resort
Four seasons of opportunity await at Casa de Westwind in Donnelly, Idaho. We made every effort to provide you with a luxurious experience while staying at our Mountain House. From the extra cozy mattresses, Egyptian Cotton sheets and high end linen duvets to the Hotel Collection plush towels and stylish yet minimalistic furnishings- we are set to comfortably and fashionably accommodate your group.
The petit yet high end kitchen features high end European Café appliances with a 6 burner gas range. Necessary items are in all the cupboards as well as an extensive spice drawer for the Chef of the group. Both spa-like bathrooms are each stocked with fragrant shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Hair dryer and other essentials you may have forgotten at home are yours to use as needed.
Access the serene beach out back and enjoy the gorgeous cove for paddleboarding, kayaking and fishing. Hot tub is available any time...any day. Tamarack Ski Resort is just across the lake. McCall is about a 15 minute drive north for an abundance of shopping, groceries, daytime activities, dining and a bit of night life. Cascade is about 15 minute drive south toward Boise for more restaurant, grocery and recreational options.
Got Kids? Check. We have several items stocked in the garage lockers to keep them busy including a few toys and board games. Got Babies? So do we. Feel free to use any items in the locker for yours during your stay: High Chair, Pack n Play, tiny human utensils and even a few emergency diapers and wipes. Because we know how it goes traveling with kids...
Jump into the lifestyle Valley County provides for all walks of life, there are literally zero excuses to not get into the action. Whether you love a hike and a hot spring soak, whitewater rafting on some of the best rivers in the world, skiing Tamarack & Brundage mountains, mushroom foraging or huckleberry picking, hot summer community events in McCall, local music festivals, hunting prized game, fishing an Anglers dream year 'round on Lake Cascade, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, fly fishing the many rivers and streams, mountain biking or surfing the lake- Valley County has got you covered....and that's not even the half of it.
We are big into the outdoors and Idaho adventure, so please do let us know what you'd like more information and insight on for activities to plan for your stay. There are a LOT of options in the area, but some like water craft rentals, snow machines and side-by-side reservations may require a bit of planning ahead to ensure you get the most out of the time you have on your vacation.

The house is beautiful and had everything we needed for a great stay. The hot tub was great after a long day of skiing. The host Patrice was very responsive and helpful. The garage had lots of space to hang up wet ski clothing.
It was a great house to stay at for a girls weekend.
We used the hot tub, BBQ, kitchen and laundry. We enjoyed the space for all of us ladies.

We (two boys and their dad in town for a ski race) absolutely loved this home and would gladly stay again. Great set up for a family. Our boys loved the hot tub and the toys especially.

Our cleaner appreciated you leaving the cabin so tidy on your exit. Welcome back any time.
What a great place! Very comfortable and roomy. From the hot tub to the very short walk to the private dock was awesome! Our family had a great time and will definitely do this again! Thank you for allowing us to have a awesome family getaway.

Carrie-
We are so pleased you and the family were able to enjoy a nice and relaxing getaway at our home. I never really want to leave when I'm at the cabin, either, to be honest :)
Thank you for being such caring guests- we welcome you all back any time the opportunity arises.

This property has everything you need! From spices to shampoo, it is a very well stocked place. The house itself is so nice! Very close to Tamarack resort. We spent 2 days snowboarding and it was so easy to get to! The hot tub was great for soaking after being on the slopes! The owners reached out after we checked in to make sure everything was going well!

We are so glad your stay was everything your family needed, Shawna.
It sounds like you all had a great time in the snow. ❄️ We plan to make it up in a few weeks and ski.
We know how rough it can be traveling can be when you forget to pack a few of the essential items; glad you were able to take advantage of the amenities.
You all are welcome back any time!
Overall, our stay was great! Check-in was easy, the location of the home was a short drive away for our day time activities, and it had everything we needed for our four night stay. Also, worth noting the the host was super easy to communicate with the entire time. Couple things to note about the property: 1) The water is super yellowish orange. We were told that it is due to high iron levels in the area, and still safe to drink, but we chose not to (maybe we are crazy! ) 2) Not the fault of the host, but the water level in the lake had already fallen so much that we were unable to access the water directly behind the home. The docks were grounded and the entire cove was essentially just a marsh making it un-swimmable. This was a huge bummer for us because that was one of the main reasons we chose this property. Something to note for anyone planning on staying this time of year and accessing the water.

Thank you so much for your review and for staying with us. So glad you were able to have a wonderful time in spite of the lake level, but I do feel your disappointment. I’m so sorry we can’t pinpoint the dates it will drop each year so it can be hit or miss.
We’d love to have you back any time.
Let us know and we can work something out 😊

About the host
Hosted by Patrice H Peterson
We are Idaho Freaks. When we aren't working hard, we are playing hard in the mountains, rivers, lakes and fields with our two boys.
Why they chose this property
We've wanted a cabin for years and couldn't find the right structure for Her and the right location for Him. That's when it was decided to get a lot and make it amazing over time.
We feel this is the perfect place for reflection and relaxation. Being so close to the lake and local recreation is a must and the private docks really sold us. Because we are in an area with two dead ends, the traffic is low and primarily neighbors passing by.
This is phase 1. Thank you for being a part of our journey.
What makes this property unique
Unlike nearly all other rental homes in the area, we are legitimately, quite literally, immediately right on the lake through a small grove of trees...we have private docks and boat slips. We believe the vibe we have created in our space provides a comfortable, luxurious relaxing atmosphere - inside and out. The private and premier beach location we have sets us apart from the rest.
Be advised: Due to annual snowfall and adjusting water table, we typically see the lake start to recede at the end of July or early August on our side of the lake. No biggie unless you have a boat. In that case, use Boulder Creek boat launch not too far from the home. Take a Left of Loomis Lane and follow the brown signs.
