Escape to the Idaho wilderness with a stay in this secluded cabin with views of mountains and valleys. This recreational oasis sits on the end of a working ranch directly adjacent to BLM land, allowing you to go fishing and wading in the Payette River on summer days. Spend your evenings on the front porch grilling out, or gathered around the outdoor firepit.

A 10-mile drive from the cabin brings you to Tamarack Resort. You're situated at the northern end of Cascade Lake, and while your stay certainly feels remote, you'll be just seven miles from Donnelly and an 18-mile drive from McCall, where you'll find grocery stores and restaurants. Be sure to bring your fishing poles, bikes, ATVs, and any other summer toys as well! This family-friendly cabin sits on hundreds of acres of private land, which are perfect for exploring. The spacious front deck with a gas grill sets the scene for dinner outside, with a picnic table and chairs seating up to 10. There is additional back deck space as well. Roast marshmallows around the outdoor firepit under the pines and stars, or cuddle up around the indoor gas fireplace on chillier nights.

Big Bear Retreat has a rustic feel with all the comforts of home, including a full kitchen with a dishwasher and a washer and dryer. Fill your indoor evenings with games and shows on the two TVs. Book your family's stay in this secluded cabin, and you're one step closer to adventure!

Great location if you want to be isolated
Fun location. My grandkids loved getting muddy because it rained and building forts. Cows all around us which were fun to watch. Towels and sheets seemed clean. Only issue we had was some of the cleaning. Or lack of. Fan in kitchen was disgusting. Needs new shower heads. Got by with kitchen supplies but really badly needs new can opener. If I came again I would bring my own pan to cook in. But we all agreed we would come back again if things a little cleaner. The space was perfect for all the kids Oh and toilet plugged on 2nd day in and did not no who to call to come fix. Luckily we had 2 toilets.

Privacy!
This place is super private! Perfect if you like off the beaten path and privacy. We loved it. House sleeps 10 for sure but only seats 6 at the dinner table. If you’re eating outside it’s not a big deal. If you go, take mosquito spray as the place is right next to a swamp. This springs cool, damp conditions were prime for mosquitoes. Probably not an issue as temperatures increase throughout the summer. Overall an awesome spot!

Beautiful location, a few small issues.
The property is amazing, and the view from from the fire ring was amazing. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we could have wanted. However there is a problem with the well I believe. While the listing does have 2 showers listed, in effect there should not be because there is no water pressure. While I didn’t mind since we spent a lot of time playing swimming. Just more of a FYI. I would definitely stay again, and would recommend the property.
