Somers, Montana
This unique waterfront property is the last surviving boathouse with living quarters above it. From the road you will walk down a wooded path to a private incline tram system that will carry you a hundred feet down to a world of lake shore living. When you get to the covered open-air deck, it is complete with a Weber gas BBQ, patio heater, table, chairs and a swing for two. In 2015 we added a new deck to the front of the Boathouse. Stepping through the sliding glass door you will see that the living level is decorated with fishing motif. In the corner is a wood stove which can be enjoyed from the overstuffed sofa-bed. The kitchen is well-furnished with cooking utensils and all appliances except for a dishwasher. There is an adorable bath with shower only. Up the winder staircase is a loft bedroom with queen bed and step-in closet plus a dormer niche with a bench.
The Boathouse now has Smart TV and WIFI !!!!!!!!!!!!
The boathouse level is totally private. The lower level with the dock and lake area of the property is shared with the property owners and their guests occasionally. You have your own boat slip and have full access to the dock, beaches, swim area and swim ladders. Guests may enjoy having a bonfire in the fire pit when there are no fire restrictions, though you will have to provide your own wood. The lakefront also has a romantic footbridge, patio area with picnic table. You are welcome to use the canoe, paddle boat and (2)kayaks which are easily launched from the beach area.
Somers Bay Boathouse is conveniently located: 12 miles west of Bigfork which has live theater and dining; an hour from Glacier Park; 10 miles from historic downtown Kalispel; 5 miles from Lakeside which has a grocery store and dining; great restaurants are within 5 minutes driving toward downtown Somers. The street above the boathouse is part of a biking/walking path which takes you to historic Somers.

We wanted a break during long road trip. This unique, beautiful property filled the bill for lake frong property where we could kayak and relax.
My husband and I had a wonderful stay at this cabin. It had everything you need and comfy bed. Perfect location to get to Glacier, Kalispell, Whitefish, Big Mountain. Beautiful sunrises on the lake and Lakeview from bed. Karen was east to communicate with. Would highly recommend this rental.
Great spot for a quiet relaxing getaway on the water. The owners take great care of the place and were very kind and helpful. Place is well stocked with everything you could need.
This is the perfect place to stay with a teenager. I would stay here every time we come back. Do not bring a toddler or young children as this is not a spot for youngers. That being said, my son is 16, and the wife and I loved fishing, kayaking and sitting on the porch chatting it up. We had some family come down and ate dinner on the docks as well as watched the storm form the covered porch. Amazing property. If I were to critique the property I would say replace the main bed, as it was a bit uncomfortable, and replace the toilet as it was a bit hard to flush. That being said, I am rating this a A+ rental and grateful for the experience. We will be back.
Had a really great, relaxing 2 days with our kids - was a perfect break after a very active week in Glacier NP. Did a lot of swimming, rock throwing, and swinging on the porch swing. Boat house was very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Waking up to the incredible view was so lovely. Thanks for a great stay - looking forward to coming back sometime.
This property is amazing! The view and location are perfect for a nice gateway. It exceeded our expectations. My only real concern is that if someone has a walking issue or disability it’s cumbersome to get from road to funicular. Other than that it was absolutely perfect. I would highly recommend to anyone. Loved watching all the boats and especially the sailboats.
The boat house was so unique! Right on the water with awesome views. Check in and out was super easy. Had everything we needed. Loved the porch swing on the covered deck looking at the lake. Location is good spot as base camp for Glacier and offers other things to do besides hiking. Would come here again for sure.
The Boat House exceeded our expectations! Fabulous views, cozy, comfortable, & well equipped. Karen couldn’t have been more accommodating. We hated to leave!
Everything was great. We were up before 6am every morning to enjoy the beautiful sunrise. Karen was a great host and had Everything ready to go. Thank you sharing your amazing boat house with us
Property was fantastic! Right on the water with beautiful views all day long. Extremely quiet & clean.
The view was wonderful and the boathouse was well furnished and very enjoyable to stay in
The boathouse was a perfect place to relax and enjoy time on Flathead Lake. The property was very clean, the kitchen included all that was needed for meals, there were lovely seating areas out on the patio and deck, kayaks and a canoe were available, and there was easy access down to the boathouse. Communication was excellent with Karen and we appreciated her quick responses and assistance. We highly recommend this property.
Lovely and quite property. Views of the lake and a place to dock the boat. We would love to come back sometime.
We loved our stay at the Boat House. The views of Flathead Lake were amazing! The sunrise each morning was beautiful. The hosts were great and helped us as needed and quick to respond. Great relaxing place to stay.
Had a great weekend for our Anniversary. Pictures don’t do it justice, you have to see it in person! Can’t recommend enough. Host was very kind and quick to answer communication. Hope to go back again!
My husband, 3 boys and niece stayed here for the week. While we probably had too many people staying here we knew that ahead of time. We put two people in the bed in the loft, two people on the sofa bed and two on a blow up mattress Karen provided. One of the main reason I gave 5 stars is because of how clean everything was. I was worried we would walk in to an old musty smell (being so close to the water) but ABSOLUTELY not. The house was nice and cool and smelled wonderful. This was huge for me! The linens and towels smelled fresh too. The views are amazing and Karen was a wonderful host. Wonderful neighborhood and my kids (13,11,11) loved the ride down to the house from the parking. Definitely not recommended for younger children as there are plenty of places they could get hurt. I highly recommend this place and we can not wait to go back.
Just great as much as last year. Can't say enough about it. Everyone should enjoy it.
My husband and I absolutely loved this place! It was so relaxing. The porch, windows, deck, canoe and kayaks were perfect. The sailboats go by and look to be dancing on the water. The water is so clear and clean. Perfect place to rest after excursions in this beautiful area. Hosts graciously let us check in early when are plans in Yellowstone fell through due to flooding. Very responsive and nice folks!
Second visit here. Won't be the last. It's just wonderful
We had a wonderful experience staying here. The host's were most helpful and friendly. The charming cabin is perfect, the property is very nice and tidy. I don't think there are too many views of this area quite so breathtaking.
We had a fantastic time, very well kept property and the hosts were fantastic! Looking forward to returning. Very quiet, secluded, private location on a beautiful lake, right on the water.
We had a great time at the boathouse. It’s the perfect location with the prettiest views! I would recommend this place to anyone.
The boathouse was great! It was comfortable and equipped with everything we needed for a 6 night stay. Most of our days were spent hiking in Glacier National Park, and the boathouse was the perfect place to come back to each day and just relax!
This property exceeded any expectations we had for it! The unit itself is thoughtfully stocked with anything you'll need for a comfortable stay. Both pullout bed and the bed in the loft were comfortable. Being able to hear the waves of the lake one of the nights was so soothing. This is definitely the type of place you want to share with your family and loved ones! Thank you, Karen!!
Awesome property, great location, outstanding views, great hosts.
