Cozy cabin! Much larger than expected and great location. Had all of the amenities we needed, only throw blankets would have made it more cozy. Would definitely rent again.
This dog-friendly cabin is situated on a quiet looped road which was great for dog walks and enjoyed seeing the local deer on nearly every walk.
The property is as explained in the posting and had everything you needed.
Will definitely recommend this property.
Exactly the experience that is advertised. Comfortable, clean, warm, cozy.
It was easy to find, easy to check in. Everything was ready for a family of 5 to enjoy our weekend. Communication with the managers/owners was respectable and quick.
Great location for nordic skiers! Trails within walking distance. House was great but a little disappointed that fireplace had not been fixed since last time we were there. Which is ok but we were told that it had been fixed.
We enjoyed are stay and the place was clean. Beds were not the most comfortable and the place was a little on the cool side as we had to max out the thermostats to get it heated up and then it was a very touchy process to keep it warm enough without some of the rooms being too cold. We enjoyed the cabin type feel, the games and puzzles, and that it was close to Ponderosa State Park which was the purpose of renting this place. We would probably stay again. Just a little TLC would make this place great and then I would give it 5 stars.

Great Stay, Even Better Location
Had a great time here with our 5 year old and our dogs. Location is a short walk from the state park and the house is on a quiet street. Loved the wood burning stove after playing in the snow. Just a few critiques: no cable TV and no DVD/VCR despite the profile description. Not a deal breaker for us, but we luckily brought a laptop as a backup. Never found the fire pit or dish towels, but again, not a deal breaker - just some things to fix for the future or change in the description. Would stay here again!

We are so glad to read you enjoyed your visit. With all of the snow, the firepit becomes unavailable, and we do apologize if this caused any disappointments. We have updated our listing to reflect the home has basic cable and no DVD player. Thank you!
The place was clean when we arrived. Did not expect all the little extras like toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher soap hand soap laundry soap etc. was spacious for our adult family and my son's dog. Did not smell like animals nor could I detect that animals stay in this house. .Five minute drive to McCall. Three minute walk to the state park. Lots of wildlife around. I love to cook and kitchen equipment was adequately stocked.

Not meant for hot summer months
This property does not have AC or enough fans to cool this big of a cabin during the day. The heater was left on full blast and it was 95 degrees outside the first day we checked in. We were extremely uncomfortable and hot the whole time and it did not cool down till late at night. Also, it did not come with a fire pit as listed in the amenities. I would not recommend staying during the summer months.

We loved area ! Close to the mountains for skiing and dogs loved they could go outside into the snow!! The dishwasher was leaking ( we let owner know). Had a problem with laundry door falling off hinge…( let owner know). The kitchen could have been cleaner ( we let the company know who manages rentals). We stayed for 4 nights and it was cozy. We didn’t bring wood for wood stove. But, the electric heat kept the place pretty warm! Very spacious!
We settled down at night with a movie 🎥. Which Netflix and Prime were offered. There could have been more, that’s what we used. We would stay again, if availability is open for next ski adventure.
Nice place to stay. It is older, but has a cozy feel. Enjoyed the overall stay. Lighting is very dim in downstairs bedroom. Another lamp could help. The kitchen has the basics needed, but is a bit dated and is hodge podge with miss matched dishes and no wine glasses. We were unable to get the dishwasher to work properly. It is a much older machine. There was old dish tablet in the stuck in the dispenser first time we tried to use it showing it maybe having issues working. We ended up hand washing dishes to be safe. Very cool place over all and the fire place was wonderful. Minor things that were small setbacks. Would stay again. Great location and awesome dog policy.
I needed a relaxing vacation and McCall and this house was awesome to my husband and I. While I gave it 5 stars I agree with other reviewers that the kitchen cooking utensils do need to be gone through. Specifically there needs to be spatulas that aren't metal as there are a ton of non stick pans. Cooking oil or spray would also be helpful for guests. Its kind of in the shampoo department of kitchen land.
The neighborhood was so quiet, a mix of residential and second homes. With a 20 minute walk through the state park trail system you can be at the lake (4 min drive) but beware that it is NOT dog friendly near the water at the state park.
We loved making a fire (bring your own wood) relaxing and making great meals. We did go out to eat in McCall and there are fantastic options there.
The dishwasher seemed to be brand new and worked perfectly! I know other reviewers have mentioned it was broken, but it has been replaced.
We loved this cabin, will bring our own cheaper firewood, but we are looking to book again in the springtime!

Very nice cabin with all amenity's needed for cooking, bathing and TV lounging.
Cabin was a bit outdated with wallpaper peeling and doors to outside that were sticking and hard to open. Couches were uncomfortablet o sit in for very long.
