Set along 2.5 miles of the renowned Payette River, River Ranch is one of Idaho's most exceptional master-planned luxury communities. Encompassing 458 acres of protected meadows, wetlands, forests, and riverfront, River Ranch was thoughtfully envisioned to preserve the integrity of the land while creating an authentic mountain lifestyle centered around water, wilderness, and connection.
Every aspect of the community reflects a commitment to stewardship and intentional design. Spacious estate homesites are carefully integrated into the landscape, preserving expansive open space, protected view corridors, and the natural beauty that defines this extraordinary setting. Five private lakes, over 7.5 miles of trails, private river access, and abundant wildlife create an environment where recreation and nature exist in harmony throughout every season.
The successful completion and sellout of Phases I and III affirmed River Ranch as one of McCall's most sought-after luxury communities. The next chapter is now underway with the release of Phase II, introducing 26 thoughtfully planned homesites that continue the original vision while maintaining the community's commitment to low-density living, architectural integrity, and responsible land stewardship.
Residents enjoy an unmatched collection of private amenities, including hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, kayaking, paddle-boarding, snowshoeing, and groomed cross-country skiing, along with concierge services, a fishing shelter, and exclusive boat slips at Mile High Marina on Payette Lake for owners and their guests.
At the heart of the community, the Ranch House and Trapper Cabin provide gathering spaces designed to bring family and friends together. The approximately 5,000-square-foot Ranch House features an impressive great room, formal dining and boardroom, library, commercial kitchen, bar, billiards room, and a private owner's apartment. Professionally managed event services allow residents to host celebrations, retreats, and special occasions while overlooking the surrounding river, meadows, and mountain vistas.
River Ranch also presents a remarkable opportunity for future development through Drift Water, an extraordinary 54.6-acre riverfront offering comprised of two unentitled parcels totaling approximately 38 acres and 16.6 acres. Positioned along one of the most desirable stretches of the community's private Payette River frontage, Drift Water offers exceptional flexibility for a visionary developer. Whether envisioned as a collection of signature river estates, a boutique hospitality experience, private club, wellness retreat, or another legacy project, the property provides a rare opportunity to shape the future of one of Idaho's most distinguished mountain communities.
Information regarding River Ranch, Phase II opportunities, Drift Water, and additional development offerings is available upon request for qualified parties.
River Ranch is more than a community—it is a legacy of thoughtful planning, enduring stewardship, and authentic mountain living, creating an unparalleled destination where generations will gather, explore, and connect with the land for years to come.
