The Great Divide Ski Area is only 50 minutes away. Or take the easy 20-minute drive to downtown Montana’s capital city, Helena, where you can shop, dine, or explore historic Reeder’s Alley. If you enjoy fine arts Helena boasts the Helena Symphony, the Archie Bray Foundation for Ceramic Arts, the Grand Street Theatre, The Myrna Loy Center for the Performing and Visual Arts, the Holter Museum of Art, and the Montana Historical Society Museum.

    EVERYTHING about this property was amazing. The house itself and the beautiful views of the mountains will forever be in all of our memories. We had a full house including two three year olds and two 80 year olds with mobility issues. The house provided everything we needed for an incredible week and SO MUCH MORE. The host was very helpful. The home was full of amenities and pleasant surprises at every turn. It was difficult to leave and I am hopeful we will be able to return to enjoy in the future for another stay full of family togetherness and fun for all.

    This home was perfect for our family and siblings during our stay in the Helena area. The view is breathtaking especially the sunsets. The game room was a huge hit with the kids.

    Beautiful place with amazing views. We had a great time even though the fishing could have been better. Guess that's why they don't call it catching. Great accommodations with incredible sunsets. Highly recommend staying here.

    This property is just amazing if you are looking to get outside without getting in the car. Missouri river ~1 mile away, hundreds of acres of public land bordering the property. Go for multiple strolls in the forest per day or go down to the river and have a long picnic. Well appointed kitchen, nice large living area so big groups could be really comfortable and all together. Look out the picture windows and watch the sun come up or the stars come out. The hosts are super responsive to any needs you may have as well. Thank you for the great stay!

    Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home! Everything was perfect! The kitchen is well stocked and very roomy to make meals for a crowd. All the bedroom and bathrooms were stocked and comfy! The game room was an extra nice touch for the younger folks! We watched deer every night and morning. There is a cute little bunny family that lives under the back deck that comes out to visit. We all enjoyed the quietness of the property. The sounds of nature was what we all needed to rejuvenate! We hope to be back!

    This was our second time staying at this property. We love how big it is. Plenty of seating in the living room. The best part is the location. Very private and beautiful views. I'm sure we will be back a third time.
