About this property
Cute, Pet Friendly Cabin with Hot Tub
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.
Relax next to the 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 new 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.

As advertised. Very comfortable and quiet. Amenities were great and was close to lots of outdoor activities.
Easy check in and check out. Would definitely recommend.
We enjoyed our stay. The cabin is clean, well stocked, and is decorated and furnished nicely. We enjoyed the firepit, grill, and hot tub. Communication with property management was fantastic. We reached out to extend our stay and they were quick to respond and were pleasant and helpful.

Super cute cabin in the woods. Easy to find & great parking. Upstairs bedroom is a tight spiral staircase but it’s doable. Loft is open to below. Super comfortable king bed in main bedroom. Great hot tub & fire pit. Would definitely recommend this location!
Beds were comfortable. Easy to town without the noise of town. Nice hot tub. Well stocked kitchen. Shower was a little wonky, but worked just fine! We would go again.

Cute A-Frame Cabin
This was a very cute cabin, hot tub was nice. Garage is listed in VRBO listing, but after looking into to it, it is not available for guests. Mini split for heat in bedroom was not very clear on how to use, and after we looked up instructions on the internet the second night, it was very loud and hard to sleep with it on. The sleep number bed was very comfortable, but no remote for any adjusting.
My family had such an amazing experience! We loved the house so much. It was well stocked, clean, cozy, and perfectly decorated. There was so much snow and it just made for the perfect weekend. We went in the hot tub in the snow and enjoyed movies and family games at night. Frost Cabins is so easy to work with and incredibly informative. They are wonderful at communicating and have awesome rentals! Can't wait to come back in the summer!!
This was a nice really cute comfortable cabin. The location was great for our needs and the setting is beautiful. Our only complaint is that the King sized bed is actually two twin sized beds put together but made up separately. They were comfortable.
This rustic and cozy cabin was perfect for me and my little dog. I enjoyed a relaxing and quiet weekend. It's perfect for families as well. Next time I'll bring up the kids!
What a quaint little spot in a quiet little neighborhood. Waking up to Sandhill Cranes calling each other was a specific delight. The property had everything we needed. Thank you. Our kids have had a blast.
We checked in easily with perfect directions, and when we did we found a great place for relaxing, family time, and a mental reset. Very clean, fully stocked, warm, cozy and friendly customer service. Thank you for a great stay... We will be back!
Cute A-frame cabin with additions that is cozy for a family or small group. Close to Tamarack for skiing. Comfy beds and a fully functional kitchen. We would love to stay again for longer next time!
Excellent stay! Check in and out was super easy! Quaint cabin with everything we needed to have a relaxing weekend.
The only downside was due to weather snow was piled in front of garage parking and we had to shovel it, but everything else was great! Highly recommend Little Ponderosa
