Our winter 3-night stay was absolutely lovely. The cabin has a remote feel even though it is very close in proximity to McCall. On our first night, we walked through the door and decided this is where we wanted to be for the evening, even though the Winter Carnival fireworks were scheduled in a couple of hours.
The cabin has huge windows in the sitting area and family and dining room areas. We enjoyed just "hanging out" and being a part of the stillness.
The furnishings are beautiful, and the home is well layed out. I would have loved a footstool in front of the couch. There is no coffee table, and using the stools from the table was hard, and they were too tall.
Since we stayed at the cabin our three days, we spent one day watching movies. The tv has Dish with a wide variety of free movie choices. I noticed a number of DVDs under the stand as well.
The kitchen is well supplied. Bring your own condiments, syran wrap, etc., though. I bought supplies for French bread, but forgot sugar, cinnamon, and cooking spray. We did find cinnamon but not the others.
We did not use or access the garage so have no comment on it, but it was nice to be able to park in the drive. It was snow covered, but the walk to the front door was only a few feet and covered and had been cleared prior to our arrival.
The home was clean and warm as we entered, and we were in immediate awe with our choice. I would definitely rent again and would love to see this property in the summer.
Regarding the size, this property is perfect for a couple, two couples with two children, or a family with two-three children. Right now the lawn and deck areas are piled with feet of snow, but I can imagine how family friendly they are.
The small bedroom downstairs has two twin beds with two small closets, and the bathroom is right next door. Up the stairs is a loft with a queen bed, a small bathroom, and a bedroom with a queen bed which has a window-like opening with shutters that looks out to the family room below. The beds took some getting used to--all could use new mattresses, but they do have toppers.
Heating controls were very quick to warm the house, and the hot water was very hot.
Loved our stay and only wished we had a few more days!
