Make lasting memories with your family at this laid-back, dog-friendly Donnelly cottage. This remodeled A-frame is a charming throwback to simpler times, but has been lovingly maintained with all the modern amenities of home.  New in 2021: Hot Tub and Air Conditioning Coming Soon!  

Relax next to the gas fireplace for a movie or board game. You'll have endless viewing opportunities with the WiFi and Smart TV (Roku) and DVD player.  Take the opportunity to enjoy the well-equipped kitchen.

Guests are allowed to access the entire cottage. While pet friendly, not all pets will be allowed. Please inquire before booking to receive approval.

Ponderosa Lane is located just west of the town of Donnelly and off of South Norwood Road.  The cottage is located on a large lot (one acre) and there are trees separating it from nearby vacation cabins.  While it's not totally secluded, you will not feel crowded.  It is across the street from Cascade Lake.  There is no community boat dock but the Donnelly boat docks are about two miles away, where you may relax on the beach and launch your watercraft.  This cabin is minutes from the attractions and recreation of Donnelly, Idaho. The surrounding national forests are full of trails and Tamarack Resort is about 10 minutes away. McCall is about 20 minutes to the north.

Sleeping up to 6 adults and 2 infants, this home has an upstairs bedroom with a queen-size bed, a master with a brand new sleep number queen bed, and a full-sized sofa bed in the living room. The full bathroom on the main floor has a jetted soaker tub and the upstairs 1/2 bath is tiny, but handy if you don't want to walk down the stairs at night.

The nearby town of Donnelly has a handful of restaurants and boutique shops and a gas station/convenience store that carries any items you may have left behind.


This home is pet friendly, but pre-approval is required in all instances. Prior to booking, please submit the pet breed, weight and age. For approved pets, there is a fee per pet.

This cottage is accessible year round and is located on a completely level lot about 3 miles from the town of Donnelly, on your way to Tamarack Ski Resort. Roads and driveway are all paved and snow removal service is provided all winter.
