Mile High Marina’s big summer makeover
If you’ve strolled past Mile High Marina lately and thought, Wait a second… something big is happening here, you’d be right.
One of McCall’s most visible lakefront spots is in the middle of a major transformation, and by the time the wild, wonderful Fourth of July crowds roll into town, visitors should see a dramatic new addition stretching out over Payette Lake. Mile High Marina is replacing its long-serving, floating log breakwater with a new concrete wave attenuator—a much sturdier structure designed not only to protect boats, but also to create a new public-facing lake experience.
And that’s just the beginning.
The project also adds about 90 new dock slips, upgrades the marina’s operations, extends hours later into the evening, refreshes the food menu with healthier options, and rethinks the store experience. In other words, this is more than an infrastructure project—it’s a full-on summer glow-up.
For co-owner Samuel Worley, who has been involved with the marina since 2004, the project has been a long time coming.
