About this property

Payette Riverfront Retreat, Hot Tub, Sauna, Views

  • Summary:

    A private riverfront McCall retreat with multiple living spaces, stunning Payette River views, and resort-style amenities at home. Four bedrooms, a loft overlooking the river, a hot tub, sauna, and riverside fire pit create an unforgettable setting for families and groups looking to relax and reconnect.



    The Space:

    Positioned directly along the Payette River, this spacious McCall retreat offers a rare combination of privacy, riverfront access, and comfortable gathering spaces designed for larger groups. Large windows throughout the main living area bring the river into view from nearly every angle, creating a peaceful backdrop throughout your stay.



    The main level centers around the open-concept living space, where a large sectional, cozy fireplace, and flatscreen TV face the river. The dining area seats eight comfortably, while the kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, ample storage, and an island with seating for three. River views continue from the kitchen, making even meal prep feel connected to the outdoors.



    Just off the living room, sliding doors open directly onto the patio, where the Payette River flows only steps away. Outside, guests can enjoy the private hot tub, fire pit, and peaceful riverside setting surrounded by trees and natural beauty.



    Also on the main level is a private bedroom tucked beside the river, featuring patio access, river views, a cozy bed, double-door closet, and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. A half bathroom and laundry area with washer and dryer are also located on this level.



    Upstairs, the loft overlooks the main living area and river below, offering an additional space to relax with a large sofa and reading nook.



    The upper-level primary suite features a king bed with river views and an ensuite bathroom with double sinks and a tub/shower combination. The bathroom is also accessible from the hallway.



    A bunk room with river views includes one full bed, two twin-over-twin bunk beds, a flatscreen TV, and a double-door closet. Another upstairs bedroom offers a queen bed, wooded views, and a twin daybed for additional sleeping flexibility.



    For even more relaxation, the garage houses a private sauna — the perfect place to unwind after a day on the river, skiing, or exploring McCall.

Wonderful family stay

Beautiful home in the middle of the city with a location that makes you feel like there are no neighbors. Home is directly on the river. The kids spent hours playing in the snow on the river bank and in the river. The home is perfectly equipped for a large family gathering. Will rent again and again …

Gorgeous house and location

Overall it was fabulous. Beautiful house, amazing location. Roomy, great layout. Loss of star issues, on arrival hot tub was non-functional and not clean, fixed next day, so 1 night of stay not as promised. Very limited dishwasher tablets, paper towels and garbage bags (we had to buy more for our stay). Fantastic house, local management not so great.

Home was great - the hot tub and river in the back yard was just perfect. We found that the towels were very thin, not enough paper products and only one packet for the dishwasher.

Weekend in McCall

The property is beautiful and looks even better than the pictures. The house is well furnished including great cooking supplies, great outdoor equipment, nice bedding and plenty of cozy blankets. Our only complaint was the group before us was apparently “rough on the hot tub.” There was vomit next to the hot tub and they had to drain and refill. Although we appreciated the cleaning, the heater did not reset so our arrival after a long day on the slopes was met with a “hot tub,” that was a balmy 46’. The owner didn’t message us back and during the 45 minutes it took us to get through the Live Chat with VRBO, we figured out how to reset it and get it warming up. That however took about 12 hours to warm so no hot-tubbing that night. Otherwise, we had no issues and all went well.

The cabin was just as advertised. Not fancy, but very comfortable. The setting and view from the patio was wonderful - the beds were comfortable - the kitchen fairly well kitted out and easy to work around with several people. The host was very attentive when we commented about the hot tub cleanliness, and we had a "pool guy" the next day doing a complete service. Several of the jets don't seem to work, but it still was a wonderful experience sitting in the hot tub watching the osprey hunt!

Tranquility and Peaceful. Perfectly located near downtown McCall, and with in walking distance to restaurants. Home was very clean and didn’t smell old or used from the previous renters. Primary bedroom downstairs has a very comfortable bed, and my husband’s bad back enjoyed it. Pantry has basic spices, but no cooking oils besides a jar of coconut oil. The washer and dryer appeared almost brand new. We used up all the tide pods and wish I had brought some. The best part of the property is the privacy from the back deck/yard. Lots of deer and birds to watch. Our kids wanted to live in that house. Five-Stars!
