About the host
Hosted by Virginia Aucoin
Hi, I’m Virginia — a full-time property manager with a degree in economics, a heart for hospitality, and a deep love for helping people feel at home wherever they are. I’ve spent years managing unique short-term rentals across Louisiana and Idaho, combining my passions for design, travel, and service into a career I truly love.
Originally from Louisiana, I bring warmth, attention to detail, and a strong sense of care to every guest experience. I believe great hospitality is about more than clean spaces — it’s about thoughtfulness, clear communication, and creating an environment where people can rest, reconnect, and make lasting memories.
Whether you're planning a quiet getaway or a meaningful celebration, I’m here to make sure the experience is smooth, comfortable, and stress-free. My goal is always the same: for guests to feel welcomed, supported, and free to enjoy their time to the fullest.
When I’m not managing properties, you’ll usually find me paddle boarding, hiking, soaking in a hot spring, or exploring new places with my dog Roux Ga Roux. I’m grateful every day to do this work and look forward to welcoming you soon.
Why they chose this property
Imagine waking up to birdsong and golden light filtering through the trees, then strolling just minutes down the road to dip your toes in Payette Lake or hit the trailheads of Ponderosa State Park, both practically in your backyard! Hop on a bike or take a leisurely walk — you’re less than a mile from lakefront beaches, forest hikes, and kayak launches.
When you're ready to refuel or explore, the energy of downtown McCall awaits just around the corner. Boutique shops, local eats, breweries, and the famous ice cream counter at Ice Cream Alley are just a 3-minute drive away — or an easy, breezy bike ride if you're feeling like a local.
And let’s talk seasons. Summer brings paddle boarding, beach picnics, and sunset paddles. In fall, the road itself becomes a golden tunnel of aspens and crisp air. Winter? Lick Creek Road transforms into a dreamy snow-globe scene with easy access to Nordic trails, Brundage skiing, and hot cocoa runs to town. Springtime wildflowers and wildlife return before it all starts over again.
This neighborhood isn’t just peaceful — it’s alive with possibilities. Whether you're here for a laid-back escape or an adventure-packed itinerary, 925 Lick Creek Road puts you at the crossroads of everything that makes McCall magical.
What makes this property unique
What makes Nine Pines Outpost stand out? It’s the kind of place that surprises and delights at every turn — not just a cozy cabin in the woods, but a full-blown mountain retreat packed with thoughtful touches and unexpected fun.
Step into the sprawling, private backyard and you’ll instantly feel the peace that only tall pines and open skies can bring. Whether you’re soaking in the steamy hot tub under the stars, sipping coffee around the crackling firepit, or letting your pup roam free (yes, we’re pet friendly), this outdoor space is a mood all its own.
Wander upstairs to discover the treetop balcony, a tucked-away hideout with breezy porch swings that float above the forest floor — the perfect spot for quiet mornings or golden hour chats.
But the crown jewel? The detached garage turned epic game room. We’re talking air hockey battles, arcade games, a pop-a-shot, and a huge sectional facing a massive smart TV — all in a space that opens to the fresh mountain air. It’s part lounge, part arcade, and 100% awesome for kids and adults alike.
Combine that with comfy sleeping spaces, stylish upgrades, and a prime location close to lake, town, and trails — and you’ve got a stay that’s anything but ordinary. This isn’t just a basecamp — it’s a destination in itself.
