McCall Idaho or New Meadows or Donnelly or

I think I am going to expand the geography of this blog to also cover Valley County and the surrounding areas. So many people think that McCall is out of range. Granted it is quite the expensive one, but there are some impressive alternatives nearby. For example, the town of New Meadows, is a 12 mile drive to the North and a bit West. I am seeing a good supply of 5 acre building lots for as low as $130K, with protective covenants! Now granted, 2 years back that would have run you about half that. Still, I think there is good value there, especially for building yourself a nice cabin in a great area. Otherwise, brand new construction can be found as low as $260K for 1400-1600 sq. ft. in Donnelly. Sounds like a pretty good second home set up.
