Based in McCall
Unlike many other rafting outfits, our company is based in a northwest vacation hot spot. We can’t think of a better place to call home and raise our family, and we love to share our home with others! Instead of going to a small town that’s nothing more than a starting place for your river trip, we invite you to come a few days early or stay late after your river trip — McCall is a place you will surely fall in love with. There is so much to do here!
Situated right on beautiful, high-alpine Payette Lake, McCall is is over a mile high in elevation. The weather during the summer is typically hot and dry (70s-90s) and the nights are cool (50s-60s). Payette Lake is a few hundred feet deep in spots, keeping it clean and crystal clear. We recommend hiking around the lake in Ponderosa State Park, renting a paddle board or kayak, or visiting one of the many lakeside parks for a picnic and a swim.
We’ve built our business to be based in this local gem, and while it can be a trek to get to McCall, it’s well worth it! As such, once you arrive, we make it easy. Round-trip transportation to the river and back is always provided and included for no extra charge. Your vehicles will be safe at our shop while you’re on the river, and we’ll take care of driving you to-and-from.
Furthermore, from the beginning we made it a goal to build a beautiful, state-of-the-art warehouse facility. The Boathouse was completed in 2019 and not only sets us up to facilitate quality river trips, but is also a perfect starting and ending point for your river experience. We are proud to be a clean and professional outdoor business.
