About this property

Private Cabin at the Foot of the Mountains

  • Welcome to this comfortable mountain home in Donnelly, thoughtfully designed for guests looking for a functional and well-equipped base for year-round adventure in the heart of Valley County.

    The main level offers a practical and welcoming layout. A convenient mudroom entry provides the perfect place to store hiking boots, ski gear, and outdoor equipment after a day of exploring. Inside, you will find a cozy living room with a pellet stove, a dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen ideal for gathering and relaxing. The primary bedroom with a king bed and a full bathroom are also located on the main floor, along with an in-home laundry closet for added convenience. A sliding glass door leads directly to a private covered deck, offering a comfortable outdoor space in every season.

    Upstairs features an open sleeping loft overlooking the living area below (not a fully enclosed bedroom), along with a small private balcony that provides a quiet spot to enjoy the mountain air.

    Outside, guests can enjoy a backyard firepit area perfect for evening gatherings, along with a spacious pull-through driveway with room for trailers (with pre-approval). The property also includes full RV hookups with 30-amp 120V power, water, and sewer connections, making it an excellent choice for guests traveling with recreational vehicles, boats, or outdoor gear.

    Located in a quiet residential area off West Mountain Road, the home offers a peaceful mountain setting while keeping you close to everything the region has to offer. One of the biggest highlights is the close proximity to Tamarack Resort, just minutes away, where guests can enjoy skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, dining, zip-lining, rafting, and year-round recreation.

    Guests are also within easy reach of Lake Cascade, as well as the towns of Donnelly and McCall, offering dining, shopping, and seasonal events. Across the road from nearby recreation areas, guests can also access boat launches and lakeside activities.

    The surrounding region is known for its stunning mountain scenery and outdoor lifestyle, offering endless opportunities for hiking, biking, boating, fishing, golf, and winter sports. This home is a great fit for guests who want a quiet, comfortable stay with unbeatable access to Idaho’s best recreation.

A great place

This was the perfect rental for our vacation. There was plenty of room for our dog to play. The cabin was well stocked with everything we could imagine we would need. I'm sure other families would really appreciate all the children's things, i.e., divided plates, child silverware, high chair, pack and play, etc. It's a comfortable cabin. We loved it.

We really enjoyed our time at this cabin!! We stayed in the summertime, we were walking distance from the lake, and we enjoyed using the deck to sit outside and enjoy some mountain style quiet. One note for families with small children, the second bedroom is an open loft (which we didn’t realize until we got there) and can be difficult for little kids to fall asleep in. But it was clean, cabin-y, well stocked, and in a great location! We will be staying here again!
