Shore Lodge

The Shore Lodge is unique experience. First of all the location of the Lodge is superb - a lovely sunny corner of the lake. The staff is uniformly great - from check-in to check-out, everyone is kind, fun, and capable. We come back every year, and have not been disappointed. You can swim right off the dock, or book a boat to go further. Wonderful place!

The hotel is nice but beware in September they consider it low season so very little staff. The pool bar is closed. The restaurant opens late. Essentially the amenities are minimal. Book accordingly

For my birthday this year, I knew I wanted to get away and have a lake vacation. I was considering Lake Michigan, Coeur d'Alene Lake, Mt Shasta, but our friend in Boise suggested Lake McCall. It all fell together after that. We stayed at Shore Lodge which is on the lake. It had a spa which is must anywhere I travel and it was close enough to Riggins, Idaho, where we would be going white water rafting. The hotel is beautiful. Our room was spacious, on the first floor and we opened our door to toes in the sand. I do wish our room had a fireplace. I think that would have added to our experience because we did have two nights of rain. Now, I am a spa junkie and I loved the indoor/outdoor feel of the Cove. However, our couples massage was a pretty big disappointment. I've never had a couples massage where the beds were so far apart from each other. What's the point of calling it a couples massage if you're not next to each other? Other suggestions for the spa, most luxurious spas that I've been to, have a display of grapes, or other types of fruit as well as chocolates and or granola or nuts. Cucumbers slices to put on your eyes while your in wait for your treatment. I also wish there were a wet/steam sauna. The resort has a few restaurants, but we only ate at the Cutwater which has beautiful indoor/outdoor views of the lake. Service was friendly, food was fresh and good. Wish they had more vegetarian options. As far as outdoor activities, it's all right there. We rented a pontoon and enjoyed the lake. It was pricey! $354 for two hours. It was a good time so I won't complain. You can also rent jet skies, paddle boards. The hotel has a small movie theater and game room for kids if you're traveling with them. At 7PM, they also have an outdoor s'mores station. All in all, I had a fabulous birthday vacation at the Shore Lodge and definitely recommend.

The Shore Lodge is a beautiful hotel in a stunning location—a true McCall legend. Worth every penny, with services and amenities that exceeded expectations. Simply amazing.

The Manager Justin and Assistant Manager Keith refuse to help after over charging us over $1200. They refuse to call me back to even discuss the discrepancy and when I call to speak to the manager, the Assistant Manager Keith intercepted my call, lied to me about Justin being gone for the next week, And told me that "the conversation is over" without ever going through the details. This is a beautiful resort but beware of these people. I booked two rooms with a boat slip, ate all our meals there, bought in their gift shop, yet I'm not worth a return call or an audit of the billing and charges. I will never visit this hotel again. Keith and Justin should be fired if the hotel values their customers.
