The Raccoon Den in Downtown Bozeman with Mountain Views, Large Private Deck

I recently stayed at the Raccoon Den in Bozeman, Montana. The place was clean, safe, and comfortable — exactly what I needed for a quiet stay. There were a few small maintenance items that could use some attention: the shower head had a slow leak, one of the light bulbs was burned out, and the blankets and bed cover carried a noticeable smell from a previous guest. None of these were deal‑breakers, but addressing them would make the stay even better.Overall, it’s a solid, comfortable spot with just a few details that could use a little TLC.

I really hate leaving a bad review and we never have before actually, but unfortunately, highly disappointed. Overall basically not clean, even after we paid a significant cleaning deposit. Above that, they asked us to do housekeeping upon leaving.While the vibe and cozy element was there, the lack of cleanliness was a deal breaker for such a high end stay. Specifics include: Toilet bowl had poop streaks, bath rugs out of square, towels looked like they had been used and simply re-hung, crumbs on the floors, coffee stain and what looked like makeup stain on counter. The tissues box was empty with a toilet paper roll on top of the tissue box.Simply put, the personal touch that we have always enjoyed with VRBO stays over the years, was not there with this rental.

Very clean and secure property in a very nice & safe neighborhood. Easy to communicate with the owner,

Terrific second floor unit with outside deck/patio. Better yet is the location. As advertised, this property is within walking distance of virtually everything. Downtown, the University, Burke Park all within walking distance. Kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans and utensils which is great for us because we like cooking in. Highly recommend this unit for two people when in Bozeman.

We stayed at the raccoon den just one night before our early flight out the following morning. Elinor had great communication and the place was centrally located to downtown. I did notify Elinor to let her know that the floors had not been mopped by her cleaning staff, that was the only disappointment of the place. I did stay there with my husband and our two young kids so it was a little tight. It’s perfect for two adults.

Comfortable, cosy and clean. Perfectly positioned for downtown Bozeman (what a lovely, pretty town!) and also very quiet and secure. We loved everything about it!

We had a fantastic stay in Bozeman! The location was incredibly convenient—just a short walk to downtown, which made exploring the shops, restaurants, and local charm super easy. The place itself was beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.One of the highlights of our trip was visiting the rooftop bar at the Armory Hotel, thanks to our host’s great suggestion—stunning views and a fun atmosphere. On top of it all, we discovered an unexpected family connection between my husband and our host—they’re both descendants of Mayflower passengers! Such a small world. We’d absolutely stay here again!

Flew in from Seattle to attend our daughters graduation from MSU. All communication prior to were fantastic, instructions and direction were clear and the accomodations were first rate. Great experiece all around!

Great weekend for the Cat/Griz game. Beautiful complex, and kind neighbors. We would seek the owners out again to stay at one of their properties if the opportunity arises. They were responsive and accommodating.

The Raccoon Den was perfect! Had everything we needed! Easy to access using latch app. It is walking distance to downtown Bozeman. Was our first time in Montana and the Raccoon Den made us feel at home. Enjoyed the very spacious patio too. Would def stay again!!

We had a very comfortable stay in the Raccoon Den. Quiet and spacious. We mistakenly left an envelope with $300 cash and the housekeeper immediately called the host to contact us. We had no idea we had left it but it was back in our account within the hour. Amazing! Will stay here again for sure!

Great location and property. Ellie was very easy to communicate with and took care of anything we needed. The place was clean and well equipped.
