Do you smell that? McCall’s mountain mist mixed with the rosy fragrance of love. That could only mean one thing: love is in the air! And while we’re not the city of love, have we ever told you how spending Valentine’s Day is much better from this altitude? Plan the trip to the rugged mountains of McCall with your significant other or those you love to Shore Lodge.
Ain’t No Mountain High Enough
Many come to Shore Lodge to tie the knot and profess their love from the mountain tops. But you can also make a statement with a ski trip to Brundage Mountain’s summit. If you’re looking for a more fearless way to spend your Valentine’s Day, skiing Brundage Mountain is one way to do it. After all, adventure is the best romance.
Book a day pass and enjoy this unique way to celebrate your special bond by doing something you love together. And suppose Cupid and Mother Nature collaborate (fingers crossed). In that case, it’ll be a bluebird day, allowing you to ski down on Lakeview Bowl with clear blue skies, memorizing views of a frozen Payette Lake and a snow-covered McCall. When you’re ready to cozy up, meet us at The Bar for some quality time, quick bites, and a winter cocktail or two.
This Magic Moment
Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be an action-packed day on the slopes! At times, the desire to unwind and savor the moment is what you’re seeking. Luckily, there are leisurely ways for you to spend this special day right at Shore Lodge. How does a pampering session at a spa for two sound? No one can say no to a spa day for Valentine’s Day. Especially when the spa is unlike any other you’ve ever visited.
Inspired by the natural hot springs in and around McCall, The Cove‘s immersion pools are our little hot springs on the property. With both an indoor and outdoor saltwater immersion pool, you can soak amongst the snowfall or choose to evade the elements and admire them from the indoors. But before you head for the water, you’ll want to treat yourself to one of our signature spa services. Our menu is packed with deep massages, nourishing facials, and exfoliating body treatments. Since it is Valentine’s Day, book our Couples Massage, allowing you both to relax side-by-side in our adjoining treatment room. Oh – a life of luxuriating.
Love Me Tender
Now, if there’s one thing you must do for Valentine’s Day, it’s set the mood. And trust us—we know how to set the mood. Soft, dim lighting, majestic views of the Salmon River Mountains, faint background music that enhances the mood, and shareable dishes that encourage interaction and connection—what could be more romantic than a dinner at Idaho’s most beautiful restaurant?
Serving gourmet dishes with locally sourced produce, The Narrows Steakhouse is the place for this very special occasion. Here, you can wine taste your way through the world. With over 525 wines worldwide, you’ll savor the oak-aged notes of Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Or the complex spice and earthy notes from a Tuscan Sangiovese. And if you thought our wine menu was surprising, our range of Pacific Northwest cuisines will be even more impressive. Think steakhouse, but elevated. Our menu features 30-aged steaks and chops, meaning each cut is tender to the bite. Accompanied by some of our signature sides, there’s no better place to dine on Valentine’s Day.
You can plan and choose what to do for Valentine’s Day. Or, to seal the deal, book your day out completely with skiing in the morning, a midday spa break, and a romantic dinner.
We always say the best gift you can give the person(s) you love is the gift of experiencing something new together. Down the line, it’ll be the memories you’ll remember and cherish forever. So, book that romantic Valentine’s Day getaway for two, Galentine’s Day celebration with the girls, or a family-friendly vacation with the kids and spread the love.
