The McCall Activity Barn

Came up from Boise for the weekend and decided to bring the kids. We bought out tickets online the night before. Which I recommend! When we got there, the session we came for was full. The 2 hours went quickly!! I would definitely go again.

This is the coolest place to bring the whole family for a fun day on the tubing hill. When they first opened around 2004, it wasn't what it is now. They've added more things like the magic carpet for the ride to the top, and the runs are extremely fun. I would recommend buying your tickets online as this place is usually busy. Your time here will fly by, and you won't be able to get the kids off the hill. It's a fun activity in the winter, enjoy!

Very dissapointed that you can't walk up and buy any tickets, you must pre-buy them online days in advance or you are screwed, they will literally tell you to go away. Only 50 people here on the hill. No lines, easily enough room for more. Pic for reference, barely anyone here, do not plan a random day here with your family, unless you want disappointed crying children. Must buy tickets in advance *warning*

Went during ice festival , and I couldn't believe they made a huge maze with snow! That was pretty cool. Definite fun for the entire family. With some beverages and sledding time for the kids. We had a blast

We've been coming here for many years. We liked the old way they used to do things much much better. Still fun, but you can't get as many runs in and it's tougher to get little ones up to the top. So here is what changed, You used to sit down on the tube and it pulled you to the top. I feel like you didn't have to walk as far from the end of the run back to where they pulled you to the top. They were open much later, and the night time was fast because everything was very frozen. They had 1 hr tickets, perfect for kids who might not want to go as long. There were more lanes open. We were just there 12/27/17 and there were only 2 lanes open which meant the lines were long and it takes longer to get a run in. Brundage is not doing the activity barn any favors. It's too bad the family sold out. With little ones it's tough to get them from the stopping point back to the place you get on the conveyor belt. Note in the photos you stop about where the red fencing starts and you have to walk all the way up and around the fencing and back to the conveyor belt. The little ones can sit in the tube on the conveyor belt (as it's hard for a 2-3 year old to stand and impossible for them to hold their own tube) but because the tube is bigger than the conveyor belt it keeps trying to pull it backward and you're fighting to hold it with the kid in all the way to the top. I think changing things back to the way it used to be with more runs open, longer hours, and no conveyor belt (they hook your tube up and pull you up with the rope) would improve things immensely and give people a better experience with more runs. I don't know why the conveyor belt isn't closer to where you end the run. The staff selling tickets are very friendly, the tent for eating food and taking a break and the yurt with toys are great!
