"Great home in an amazing location on lake Cascade. We’ve stayed in several different lakeside homes on Cascade over the years all of which were great, but Wagon Wheel stands out for its great location..."

All new furniture and a new 85" flat screen TV. The master suite is located upstairs with a king size bed, chaise lounge, 60" TV and master bath. Downstairs are two guest rooms which each have queen beds. There is an additional loft above the garage with bunk beds. All linens, towels, kitchen utensils and cookware are also brand new. The house has a professional grade water filtration system (all the houses in this area are on a well water system). Even with the professional grade water filtration system some guests notice a slight smell from the water compared to the water they have at home. As you can see from the reviews most guests do not even notice this. There is lots of parking for your snowmobiles, RV or boat. The boat ramp is less than quarter of a mile away. Ready for your vacation or weekend get-away! We take immaculate care of our house and want tenants who will do the same. If you will not take care of it and treat everything better than your own please do not call. Absolutely No Smoking or Drugs! We have two canoes, two standup paddleboards, two cruiser bikes and fishing poles for you to enjoy!

Also, do you want a new top of the line wakeboard/surf boat, fishing boat, jet skis, side by side utv, or snowmobiles to enjoy while you are there? I have a partnership with Redline Recreational Toys in Donnelly Idaho and can offer you a discount for any toy rental during your stay at the Rudolph Retreat. Reservations for should be made early as rentals can book out and be unavailable. Just let me know!!!

Please note the water level of the lake begins to decrease around the middle of August (this varies each year). Because the water is lower it will be a little muddier and not as clear. It is still a great time to paddleboard, canoe, fish and boat but the water will not be as clear and warm as it is in the summer time. The ramp to the dock will also be much steeper because the water level is lower. Our dock ramp is usually disconnected around the first weekend of September (this can vary depending on water level for the year) to prevent damage from ice in the winter time. After the dock ramp is disconnected you will have to climb down a steep embankment of rocks to get to the dock and water level. You can still use the canoe and paddleboards up until the lake freezes over but you will have to climb down the rocks to get to the water. You will see the rates are much lower in the fall and winter in part because of the limited lake access. The Boulder Creek boat ramp and beach is just a quarter mile south of our house. If you are unable to use the dock at our house in the fall due to water level feel free to enjoy the nice beach and boat ramp at Boulder Creek state park.

Winter Disclaimer: This area receives significant snowfall in the winter time. Our driveway is plowed whenever there is more than 3 to 4 inches of snow. There may still be new snow on the 15 foot pathway to the front door and on top of the hot tub cover. We have a snow shovel next to the hot tub and you may have to shovel the cover off to use the hot tub depending on when you arrive and the last snow storm. The BBQ and Patio furniture is put away around November 1 and returned to the deck around May 1.

We finished a major landscape, walkway and prior project that includes a brand-new larger Trex pier, rock steps to pier, sanding beach area by swing with rock steps up to rock landing where parents can sit.

Sleeps maximum of 12 people.

Traveling by plane or don't have room for groceries? Ask us about our grocery shopping service!! Give us a list of what you want and we will have it all put away in fridge and in kitchen before you arrive!

Just purchased extra large aquamat!! So fun! Tie it to the dock, run and jump on it, try to stand on it or just lounge on it.

New 85" TV with soundbar in living room and TVs in master bedroom and guest room.

New for summer 2023....central AC!! Because of the high elevation of Donnelly most homes do not have AC however August is hot! After playing in hot sun all day its wonderful to come inside to cold AC.

We just got two new cruiser bikes. Now we have four total...with cup holders!! Go cruise the neighborhood or to Boulder state park down the road!

Great home in an amazing location on lake Cascade. We’ve stayed in several different lakeside homes on Cascade over the years all of which were great, but Wagon Wheel stands out for its great location. The view is beautiful, looking directly up at the Tamarack ski runs. This home is on the quiet “gold fork” portion of the lake and it’s on the deep side of that fork which is perfect for safely docking the boat. Among all the great aspects of this property, the fishing for young kids has to be the best. Our young kids have been fishing Cascade every summer since they were old enough to pick up a pole. This particular spot is magic……kids were literally pulling in fish faster than I could get the hooks out. I’ve never seen anything like that before, but I’m grateful they got to experience it. Thank you for the hospitality. You guys are great.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay here. It was absolutely serene. Tucked into a little cove, surrounded by moutains. Theres lush green grass right up to the private little white sand beach. The huge, updated kitchen was fantastic for cooking meals. The master suite bed and shower were amazing. We slept like babies. We had such a great time. We used the firepit and hottub every night. We enjoyed every moment and will definitely be coming back.

For spring break, my husband and I booked 10 days at this beautiful home on Lake Cascade. Much to our surprise---there was 3 feet of snow and ice waiting for us at the house, with striking views of the frozen lake to admire from every window. Rudy, the homeowner, was one of the most accommodating VRBO homeowners I’ve communicated with. He made sure we knew about the weather and how much snow was at the house, prior to our arrival. He went above and beyond for me by taking pictures of the house and the property and how with how much snow there was. This was very helpful, because now I knew how to prepare for packing. Rudy also messaged me informing us of a mud slide outside of town which closed the main road for days and that there would be construction. It was possible we would have to re-route our trip or at least check the Idaho travel app. for updates and information. I really appreciated how in touch he was with us when questions seemed to come up, more than usual. Besides the road issues…and unexpected “things”, Rudy did things around the property to make things accommodating for us. Like making a pathway and digging out the firepit for us so we could enjoy a campfire during our stay. Thanks Rudy!The house is set up for everything you need, even down to personal travel soaps and the make-up removal wipes. In some respects, it was like staying at a hotel . The house is very updated inside is set up with some of the newer technology, so for me, I learned how to use heated floors, a gas/propane oven range and burner, and the NEST system for heating. LOL. This is one of our “favorite” houses, for many reasons. It is also the furthest VRBO we’ve traveled to stay. We would love to come back and see the area and the home when there’s not snow and when we’re not in COVID times.
