McCall, Idaho
This small town is home to 3,200 residents. Located in the awe-inspiring Mountains of Idaho, this is the perfect place to pack your activewear. You’re likely to spend your days hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, and waterskiing until the sun goes down.
There are also significant local draws on bird-watching, dinner cruises, whitewater rafting, and paddleboarding. After a long day of working up a sweat, kick back and relax at the Salmon River Brewery.
Be sure to head up to its rooftop beer garden that will give you the best views of Payette Lake from the downtown area. Reserve your dinner at the Clubhouse Restaurant at Jug Mountain Ranch, which has a patio dining setup ideal for sunset dining.
And for lodgings, we suggest booking the upmarket Shore Lodge or Hotel McCall.
