About Cheap Thrills Rentals
Cheap Thrills Rentals has been a McCall institution since 1995, operating from their North 3rd Street location just blocks from Payette Lake. Locally owned and operated for nearly three decades, they've built a reputation for high-quality, expertly maintained rental equipment at competitive prices — a combination that keeps families and adventure-seekers coming back year after year.
The summer fleet includes pontoon boats, ski boats, and fishing boats for Payette Lake outings, personal watercraft for high-speed lake runs, and a selection of kayaks and canoes for paddling the lake's quieter coves and inlets. When winter blankets the mountains, Cheap Thrills pivots to snowmobile rentals with access to the extensive trail network that connects McCall to the surrounding national forest. They also offer fat tire bike rentals for winter trail riding and cross-country ski gear for groomed Nordic trails.
What sets Cheap Thrills apart from larger corporate rental operations is the personal touch — the owners and staff are McCall locals who provide genuine route recommendations, lake access tips, and trail condition updates based on their own recent outings. Their decades in business have also given them deep relationships with local mechanics and service providers, meaning equipment is always in top condition and breakdowns are handled quickly.
