Where to Go Boating
Payette Lake in McCall is perfect for all sorts of boating. McCall boat rentals offer sailing, jet boating, scenic cruises, canoeing, kayaking, wake boarding, and even pontooning on this pristine mountain lake.
Little Payette Lake, a smaller lake located on the east edge of McCall, is perfect for a day of serene paddling away from motor boats and jet skiers.
Lake Cascade, just south of McCall, is a beautiful mountain lake that often has perfect wind conditions for sailing and windsurfing. You can also enjoy canoeing, water skiing, kayaking, boat tours, or a romantic wine cruise on this scenic lake.
The Payette River, Salmon River, and Snake River all boast excellent whitewater rapids for an exciting rafting or kayaking excursion.
