Spring Break Looks Different at Shore Lodge in McCall, Idaho

As the days get longer we all know that spring is right around the corner, which means that for students (and their parents) it’s time to make spring break plans. While traditional destinations like Cancun and Punta Cana might appeal to some, the die-hard adventurer will find the ultimate getaway at Shore Lodge, a dreamy family-friendly mountain destination in McCall, Idaho. The tranquil yet vibrant town located just 2.5 hours outside of Boise provides off-the-beaten path, small-town charm and endless ways to celebrate the spring season in unconventional ways.

SPRING SKI: For those looking to hit the slopes, Shore Lodge can arrange a complimentary 10 minute shuttle to Brundage Mountain, which Ski Magazine has credited with 'the best powder in Idaho' and is only just 35 minutes away from Tamarack Resort offering 1,020 skiable acres to skiers and snowboarders of all ages and ability levels. McCall was also named a Best Secret Ski Towns of North America by National Geographic Adventure.

OUTDOOR PLAYGROUND: Shore Lodge guests can truly get the most out of their vacation by participating in activities like snowbiking (born in Idaho), ice fishing, sightseeing tours by snowcat, ultimate snow tubing at McCall’s Activity Barn, sleigh rides, snowshoeing, fat biking, Nordic skiing, ice skating, backcountry flying, 500 miles of groomed snowmobiling trails and miles of groomed cross-country and snowshoe trails at Ponderosa State Park.

R&R: But a central pillar of any good spring break is rest & relaxation.
