Great house, great host, great location. We had a really fun time in McCall and having a great rental made the four night stay ideal. Mark and Renee were wonderful hosts and communication was perfect. Definitely stay again.
Beautiful Cabin Home. So relaxing we did not want to leave. Enjoyed our stay very much, and hope to return in the future! Our gift of homemade raspberry jam was wonderful!

We are thrilled you enjoyed the cabin and appreciate the kind review.. if you find time to experience the lovely area of McCall and surrounding areas please come again. The changing seasons are always a delight.
We absolutely adored this cabin, it was perfect. It was well stocked with everything we needed. We were in McCall looking at properties for ourselves and if this ever was on the market I’d try to convince my husband to buy it! We loved it!

So Tranquil!
We stayed at this beautiful home during the Winter Carnival and loved getting away from the crowds in our own peaceful forest setting. The house is so cozy and inviting, and everything was provided for our comfort and convenience.

Thank you for your kind words. We are pleased that you had a great stay and hope you will come again!
We went to McCall for golf, and a weekend away with friends who were not from Idaho. This cabin was clean, spacious and the owner was great about the communication and our needs. We wished we'd not had so much golf to play and enjoyed more time at the cabin. We loved staying there and would rent again.

Thank you for your kind words. We are happy you had a wonderful experience.
Our stay was everything we wanted for a wonderful holiday vacation! The cabin is a quick drive to town yet has private views on a nice lot. The living room and tv loft were comfortable for our family of 5. The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed to cook for the week. Enjoyed communicating with Mark and Renee. Would 100% rent this property again!
Everyone in our group enjoyed the stay immensely. The home is beautiful, very well furnished and supplied, and completely relaxing.
We especially enjoyed the woodwork in the home (both the home itself and the handmade furnishings), along with the home's location in the tall pines. The place offers great privacy, but with the convenience of town not far away.
Even before we left, we agreed that we hope to do this again next year.

It is so nice to hear you enjoyed a relaxing time at the cabin.. When we get comments like yours it makes us feel it was so worth the time putting it all together. We hope you will return next year!
Mark and Renee's attention to detail to make their home feel welcoming and cozy helped us relax and feel right at home. Thank you again for a stress-free stay. Marks woodworking skills are fabulous and Renee's raspberry jam was the best! Thank you, The Hecks

Brandi, Thank you for your kind review.
We hope you will return to enjoy McCall again. You are always welcome.
This was our third time for a 1-week stay at this home. This place is close in to McCall, but very private and tranquil...away from the noise and hustle and bustle. The place is beautiful and well cared for, and we cannot think of a single we would change. In fact, we have already reserved for vacation next year!

Seclusion in the woods
Our family had a wonderful time at this cabin. We loved how it was built to look back at the endless woods it sits up against. Our kids had a great time exploring the woods and see wildlife daily.
The cabin was stocked with everything we needed. The decore went so well with the rest of the cabin and set the mood for the "outdoors" experience we were looking for.
We'll most surely make an effort to return in the future.

Love the kind words-we built with ourselves in mind but glad it has an outdoor appeal to our guests.
Mark & Renee
This was our second vacation at this property, and we hope there are more to come. We spent months looking forward to our return and we were not disappointed. This is a beautiful home, well cared for and very comfortable; we love the owners' personal attention to design and furnishings. The location in the trees is serene, yet it is only minutes to a beach or town, and a great base for longer day trips into the surrounding country. We appreciate the owners' hospitality and effort that goes into providing this property for vacation use.

About the host
Hosted by Mark and Renee Lothrop
Home sweet away from home. This is a cabin rental with a story. We hope that you can enjoy the personal touch that not many other vacation rentals can offer.
Mark and Renee met while working in McCall, Idaho. Mark was a smoke jumper and Renee was a fire lookout. Before moving away they purchased the land. After 25+years of saving, and 3 years building with finishing touches, this cabin is now Mark and Renee's home sweet away from home. And now it can be yours too.
Why they chose this property
We love McCall and to explore all the surrounding areas.
What makes this property unique
Our family enjoys the time at the cabin more than anything. Lots of memories are made at nearby hot springs, skiing at Brundage ski resort, relaxing on the beach at Payette Lake and of just hanging out at the cabin.
We hope you enjoy the home sweet away from home.
This cabin's covered wrap around deck is enjoyable because it sits right next to a very scenic state forest. We have been known to go huckleberry and morel mushroom hunting right out the door.
