The Drift West Snowmobile Experience
Our snowmobile experience is built around the comfort and convenience of the No Business Lodge in McCall. This is not just a place to stay; it is your ultimate mountain basecamp, with the best trail access in the area, and the perfect setting for groups to relax after a day of riding. Prepare for breathtaking high mountain views, exhilarating riding, and the unrivaled luxury of a private lodge.
Direct Trailside Access & Trailer Parking
The lodge’s location near the base of West Mountain provides direct, ride-out access to the extensive trail system just a half-mile away. This convenience means your group can simply fire up the sleds from the property and be on the trails within minutes, avoiding the hassle of daily trailering and finding parking at a trailhead. The property offers ample parking for recreational trailers - the driveway can accommodate up to 30 vehicles, ensuring there is plenty of space for your entire group’s gear. Looking to host a getaway for your snowmobile club? The lodge sets up for the perfect experience!
World-Class Snowmobiling at Your Doorstep
McCall has earned its reputation as a premier snowmobiling destination for a reason, and the terrain available from the No Business Lodge is its crowning jewel. The area offers an extraordinary network of trails, with more than 700 miles of groomed trails in Valley County alone. The diversity of the landscape is a key draw, with terrain ranging from gentle, well-maintained trails to exhilarating backcountry powder fields and steep hillsides. This variety caters to all skill levels, from beginners to expert "high-markers." This is why Valley County is ranked as one of the top 5 snowmobile destinations in the nation.
The No Business Lodge: Your Private Mountain Basecamp
The Drift West Snowmobile Experience is anchored by the exclusive use of the No Business Lodge. This 5,000-square-foot private retreat is situated on 10 secluded acres, providing ample space for your party to unwind. The accommodation is perfectly suited for snowmobiling groups of 6 to 12 people, although the lodge can accommodate up to 24 guests, featuring seven bedrooms and a large bunkroom. The private on-site bar with three televisions, a cozy fireplace, and a hot tub create a perfect setting for your group to share stories from the day's ride. This focus on shared experience, trail access, and first class on-site amenities is what differentiates a stay at the No Business Lodge from a standard hotel, creating a unique and lasting memory for every guest.
