Located on the shores of Payette Lake, at the heart of the Payette National Forest, McCall is a small resort town that, once a former logging community, is today famous for its Winter Carnival. Even during its logging days, the city attracted tourists who loved the opportunities for fantastic skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, hiking, golf, biking, river rafting, camping, kayaking, fishing, jet skiing, boating, sunbathing, watching wildlife and so much more.
The two major skiing mountains are Little Ski Hill and Brundage Mountain with five chairlifts. If you get tired of the constant adrenaline rush, visit Central Idaho Historical Museum to learn about the area’s history, take the kids to the PLAYLive McCall gaming center, dip into the natural Burgdorf Hot Springs, or take a leisurely cruise on the magnificent Payette Lake.
