Nestled on the northwestern shore of Payette Lake, McCall is a compact resort town that balances family-friendly lakeside amenities with access to extensive winter and summer outdoor pursuits. In winter, visitors flock to Brundage Mountain Resort for skier services and snowboard terrain, while the nearby valley offers opportunities for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Come summer, the lake becomes a hub for boating, kayaking, and lakeside dining, with trails radiating outward for mountain biking, trail running, and mountain hiking. Year-round, McCall’s compact downtown provides lodging, casual dining, and entry points into the surrounding wilderness — making it a good base whether you’re planning a quick weekend trip or longer multi-sport visit.
