Shore Lodge

Helpful friendly staff, great food, lovely room opening up onto lake, we really enjoyed our stay for two nights. Drawbacks-there are always some. Very noisy group of women staying in room close to ours late one night. Management dealt with effectively. Tiny bathroom with shower in bath and curtain, no window. Dont bother going into Mccall, nothing there although lovely view across lake.

The location of this hotel is right off the lake. It has boat docks and a small beach area. The inside looks very rustic. The hallway is filled with pictures showing the history of the lodge. You’ll find a souvenir shop, a theater and 3 restaurants. I’m sure there’s more.

The bar, especially the appetizers have improved since our last visit about 6 months ago. Especially recommend the ribs (very meaty, sweet sauce) and the Brussels Sprouts. Special seasonal drinks were excellent.

The Shore Lodge location is hard to beat. Situated right on the lake, the entire bar and relaxed seating areas overlook the lake through huge glass panels. It’s built and looks like a true lake lodge. Very welcoming. Our room had a balcony on the lake which we recommend. It was spacious with a separate sleeping a sofa/seating area with TV’s in both locations. Bathroom was a bit small but very adequate for two of us. Bed comfort, important to us was just perfect. The staff was great, very relaxed and friendly. The gift shop is unique with international lines of clothing from jackets, vests, sweaters, dresses and much more. It was a little chilly for us to use the heated pool but they do have a nice swim area. Prices at the bar and restaurant are expensive; there are other eating establishments you can visit. Overall our stay was delightful and we can highly recommend. Only reason for four and not five star review is that a stay there, using bar and restaurants is quite pricey.

The Cove Spa is fantastic & enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the Narrows Steakhouse to celebrate my daughter's birthday! We only stay at Shore Lodge when visiting McCall!
