We had a wonderful time at this beautiful cabin in a fantastic location. Five minute walk to a beautiful secluded beach, right next to Ponderosa State Park. Quick access to town. The cabin is lovely with all the amenities, stocked well with dishes and cookware.
The downstairs dining master bedroom carpet could use a good clean but other than that the cabin was clean and wonderful places to lounge and enjoy the space. Would highly recommend this cabin.

We really enjoyed our stay in the cabin. All the amenities that were advertised were included and worked properly. Bedding was comfortable and the location was great! Thanks for plowing the driveway and front entrance, there was LOTS of snow on the ground when we arrived.

My group repeatedly stated how they would get the same rental (and want to come back next year). We had three families with two adults and 2 children per family. Like mentioned before, we locked the middle door upstairs and used the separate stairways. The kids LOVED when the door was open to make circles in the house. The little cubby under the stairwell was loved by all. The kitchen easily held it all.
The driveway was AMBLE space for vehicles and was a perfect place for the kids to play in the snow between outings (the plowed snow on the backside created the best sledding hill).
Super charming and we were even visited by a fox on the deck the last night posing for all the photos! Thanks for sharing your property with us.

This property has the potential to be a nice cabin. We arrived Christmas eve and had prepared food and planned to stay for the entire week. Getting up Christmas day the toilets had all stopped up on the lower level. We had to rent a hotel room to use the bathroom., a challenge for 15 people. After we contacted the property manager (who was terrific), he found a cabin close to ours and let us have it for a couple of days (the 27th). This of course meant we had to move twice and there was not room for everyone to stay at the new cabin. It also meant that as we prepared Christmas Dinner we had to limit water use and run to the nearest bathroom (new cabin or hotel). This situation could have been prevented with adequate upkeep. i.e. "it had been 4 years since septic emptied."
I had tried to view the cabin ahead of time and was told there were plenty of pictures on line and there was not a window of time for us to look at it. Four of our family (three men 6'2" and one 6'4" were always ducking to get in the house and hitting their heads on the bunk wall!
The downstairs hall bath was moldy and the sink was very low.
On the positive side, the Christmas trees were a nice touch and appreciated; the property manager did his best to rectify the situation.
Bottom line: we checked out a day early and would not rent the property again.

I have to give a HUGE shout out to the kitchen in this VRBO. It was beyond well-stocked. It had things that I'd never had in any of my kitchens. It was amazing. For a large group (we had 14), about the only thing that could possibly be improved in the kitchen area would have been another dishwasher and perhaps another refrigerator. The dishwasher was running constantly trying to keep up - ha!
The location was unbelievable - sharing a border with Ponderosa State Park. It was the very last house before entering the park. Deer and other wildlife were constantly on the back porch and outside the windows. For the hiking and boating enthusiasts in our group, it was truly second to none.
Pickleball! Who knew? We played it late into the night - all ages of us. Superb.
Gas grill and gas fire pit (for s'mores) worked fabulously!
I will reiterate what I read in a previous review - the bedroom situation upstairs is very unusual. While there are multiple bedrooms, there is no hallway and one must go through one bedroom to get to another. We solved this problem by having half the bedroom occupants ascend stairs on one side of the house, and half on the other stairs on the other side of the house. We locked the door in the very middle so each group sort of had its own side. That way, we didn't have to have quite as much invasion of our privacy. I suggest discussing this with the host beforehand so you are aware. It was less of an issue than I thought it would be, for which I was grateful.
It is clear that upgrades and updates are being made throughout the house. The decor was perfect for a cabin. Bathrooms are clean and some are obviously very new and modern. What they are doing is improving their property and doing it well.
We came very prepared but almost didn't need to be. The host had coolers and thermoses and water bottles to use for hot hiking days. I feel that suggestions are taken seriously and things are added. Board games and puzzles galore, including VRBOopoly. WHAT??
Check-in was excellent and simple. Host was responsive and helpful. Overall a great time. Ages 2 months to 83 years were represented in our group and 100% (okay - maybe not the infant) said they'd return here again. Bravo!

This was the perfect location for our family reunion! We wanted something close to the water but not on the water because we had 3 toddlers with us. This was the perfect distance to the water! The house was equipped with everything we needed and more, down to the huge shampoo and conditioner bottles in the showers! It’s a small detail but things like that make it feel more like a home then a hotel! We will be coming back!

The cabin is spacious and beautiful. The location was wonderful! We loved how it was a quick and easy walk to Ponderosa Park. There were deer grazing on the property all day which was neat to experience. The beds were comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed! We also liked how there were fans in every room. We weren't aware that we'd have to walk through a couple sleep areas to get to a couple rooms upstairs but it wasn't a problem for our 4 families. We will definetly be staying at this cabin again!

Kitchen and main living areas were great. Some of the sleeping arrangements were unique. If a place can sleep 18, it would be nice to have 18 towels to shower with. Couldn’t find a broom or dustpan. Loved being able to watch the deer eat and sleep right out of the windows. Loved the short walk to the lake-took advantage of it every day. A short information note somewhere with WiFi password, location of broom, TV channels etc would be nice

THis is the third year we have stayed at this cabin, the location and amenities are great. This year however the middle bathroom downstairs had no hot water in the sink or that shower? The rest of the cabin had hot water. we had to kill several spiders daily and there are a lot of spider webs in the home. The cabin is basically clean we have just noticed over the past years staying here that it may need a deep cleaning and sprayed for spiders.

This property is beautiful and in a great location!
This house perfectly accommodated our large group! It has a cabin feel but only minutes from downtown. We took a walk to a gorgeous park from the property as well! I would highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to McCall.

Excellent location!
This house was absolutely perfect. It was right in the heart of McCall, very close to the entrance of Ponderosa Park near the lake. It has so many beds so it was perfect for our large group. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals on site so we didn't have to fight the crowds on a holiday weekend at the restaurants. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone with a large group.

Finally getting together after seven years to celebrate family and Dad's retirement.
Distance, work and grandchildren hampered a family reunion for nearly seven years. This year marked a milestone, retirement. Four children and spouses along with nine grandchildren made the effort to get to Mc Call to celebrate Dad and his retirement. One daughter-in-law left to be with her mother in Salt Lake City while she underwent surgery for a brain tumor, but returned in time for a family picture. The Big Cabin at Ponderosa was perfect for us. Eventhough the square footage was smaller than another rental we were considering, the layout was ideal. Having multiple gathering places allowed for a variety of activities in the evening; games in one room, movies in another and one for adults to reminese, laugh and figure out the future. The short distance to the park allowed for easy access to the beach, hiking, and biking. All nine grandchildren became Junior Rangers!
The only down side was the delay in getting into the rental. Clean up from the previous guests took an hour longer than expected, which caused us to wait until 5:00 to gain entry to the house.
Thank you for accommodating our family so well. Cousins met for the first time and lasting memories were made.
