If you’ve seen the hit show “Yellowstone,” with Kevin Costner, you have a glimpse of the beauty your family and friends are about to enjoy. Our home is north of the Montana filming site of the Dutton ranch in the beautiful Bitterroot sandwiched against dramatic Mill Creek Canyon.

Bitterroot’s best views and outdoor adventures are at our Mill Creek gated 22 Acre luxury lodge. Expect rustic elegance in our luxurious private lodge overlooking fresh water swimming/fishing pond with 14,500 sf including indoor high school size gym perched on a hill with the kind of views you must see to believe, from Mill Creek Canyon just west, Sapphire Mountains to the east and Bitterroot valley in between.

Family relaxation and fun doesn't get any better than this. The fresh water spring fed pond is complete with boat dock, canoe, kayaks, and tubes. Enjoy a fun game of sand volleyball right next to the pond. Relax as you take in the expansive views from the patios, oversized hot tub and fire pit for late night big sky s’mores. The gym with NBA quality soft wood floor is set up for pickleball, full court basketball, volleyball, badminton, dodgeball, corn hole, plus aerobic and lifting equipment. The game room has pool, ping pong, foosball, game table and bar with espresso, latte, cappacino, steamers, cold brew, Keurig, traditional coffee, Blendtec smoothies, sonic ice and flavors to mix in. The high end theatre welcomes your family and friends with huge screen and high end audio system. Home automation includes music throughout home and outdoors. There is an additional TV room with surround so the kids can enjoy watching movies, sports or gaming without hearing the other group.

In the winter cut a hole through the ice in the pond for a plunge, ice skate on Lake Como, Lost Horse and Skalkaho are well known for exceptional snowmobiling, Lost Trail has some of the best powder around for skiers and snowboarders, Chief Joseph for cross country and snowshoe enthusiast. See photos.

The spacious homes’ interior mixes rustic luxury to match the incredible beauty that surrounds you. Check out the gourmet kitchen complete with everything you or your chef might need with pantry and seating for your entire group. The great room and game room are spacious with picture perfect views of the Bitterroot mountains plus theater and extra tv room. There are six bedrooms with 2 king and 7 queen size beds plus 2 twin bunk beds. There are 6 full baths and one half bath in the house and a full bath in the gym. 3 washer dryer sets.

This is the best location in the Bitterroot with its unmatched views of rugged mountain beauty but only 10-12 minute drive to downtown Hamilton with at least 12 restaurants and 3 good size grocery stores. Your group is 4 minutes to Mill Creek Trailhead, one of the most gorgeous hikes in all of Montana on beautiful Mill Creek sandwiched between towering rock walls (see photos), 8 minute drive to the famous Bitterroot River, road biking trails that go all the way to Missoula and more mountain biking trails than you’ll have time to ride for the single track enthusiast. World class fishing and rafting is all around you. Lake Como, one of the most beautiful lakes in Montana, is only a 30 minute drive. The Lake Como trail to the waterfall goes all the way around the lake with soaring mountains that appear to grow right out of the water. Missoula International Airport is approximately 45 from the home.

This is one of those rare, unique ”once in a life time” homes nestled in nature that just feels good. We love it and know you will too.

    Our stay at this incredible Montana home was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the beauty, comfort, and fun this property offers. Tucked away in a peaceful setting with stunning views, the house had everything we needed — and more.The private pond was a serene spot for morning coffee and evening relaxation. The kids (and adults!) had a blast on the full basketball court and playing foosball and pool in the game area. The movie room and hot tub was great too! Evenings were spent making s'mores around the fire pit.Inside, the home is beautifully designed and spacious, with thoughtful touches throughout. The piano added a warm, elegant vibe and made it feel like a true home-away-from-home. Every room was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked — from the kitchen essentials to extra towels for the hot tub.This place is the perfect blend of luxury and Montana charm. Whether you're looking to relax, play, or explore, this home checks all the boxes. We highly, highly recommend!

    Our family loves to travel & gather together at the same location at least 1 time a year. In 2025 we chose this estate & all 18 of us are ecstatic with this choice! The home & property are luxurious! You will be tucked into the Montana wilderness and at the same time be only minutes from all conveniences you may need in Hamilton. Our family is ages 2 - 63 & there was never enough time in a day to partake in all the offerings provided by the Hosts! All our correspondence with them was most excellent! You will be provided an extensive description of the home amenities along with a boundless list of activities offered in the Hamiliton area. As a grandfather my barometer for a successful vacation is when my children or grandchildren ask if & how soon we can come back! Without hesitation everyone of them ask if we can come back here next year! This has never happened before & all I can say is congratulations to the Hosts for assembling such a spectacular property & thank you for sharing it with our family! The grandkids stood in awe when we arrived & could not decide what activity to do 1st & ran from 1 thing to another until they could not move any longer! There is a magnificent gym on the property! We have a grandson that wears a size 18 shoe & the Hosts were so gracious they went out & bought special shoes for him to wear so he could enjoy the gym with the rest of us! Our family promises you will be overjoyed if you choose to stay here & we are anxiously waiting to return!

    We chose to have our small private wedding here at Stephanie and Ryan‘s place and it exceeded every expectation we had! The pictures on the listing do not do this place justice. The backyard and the front yard views of the mountains are absolutely breathtaking and we could not have dreamt of a better background for our wedding ceremony. It was so so special to us both to have our parents, sisters and their families all under one roof while we enjoyed the most unforgettable, magical weekend of our lives. Stephanie and Ryan have truly thought of everything to make this a spectacular place to stay in Montana. We loved the views so much, and everything The house had to offer, that We barely left the property. We played countless games of Pickleball in the gym, cooked dinner every night in the huge amazing kitchen and spent hours each night, talking on the patio and around the fire. I would 10/10 recommend this property to anyone and everyone. If I had to give one piece of feedback or advisory information, it would be that the bathroom situation is less than ideal for a 5BR home. There is only one bathroom on the lower level for 3 bedrooms and the bunk room which made it a little challenging for 3 families to use. However, there are two and a half additional bathrooms upstairs that everyone could use plus the one in the master bedroom so it all worked out fine. We are just used to en suite bathrooms. So, just set your expectations with this in mind so you’re not surprised.

    We returned home last night from our stay here. Our family of 15 loved this home! We range in age from 8-66. The layout of the house was perfect for our group - being together yet having spaces for everyone to do their own thing when needed. We loved the game room and spent a lot of time there. We loved the coffee bar (one of our group took on making everyone a morning latte). We loved the huge kitchen and that most of our group could sit at a counter, chatting with our family cooking crew and not be in the way. We loved having a second fridge. We loved being able to put the wet clothes in the dryer. The media room was used to settle us in after a day of playing and an excellent way for some of our ADHD folks to have an opportunity to dial things down a little. Not to mention, there is a full-scale basketball court (aka pickleball court, aka obstacle course, aka volleyball practice court) to play in. We played in the yard when it snowed, sled down the hills, and built our snowmen right there. We went for trail hikes nearby. We sat around the outdoor fire pit with sticks, graham crackers, and marshmallows. Our teenagers want to move there! The icing on top was our hosts; Stephanie and Ryan were fantastic and thoughtful. Stephanie was so helpful before the trip, and she and Ryan have everything there you'd need to play, hang out, skate, fish, sled, snowshoe--everything! I would rate them and this location 10 out of 10 stars.

    This rental was absolutely perfect in every way. The home and property are beautiful; a gorgeous setting; spotlessly clean; so many amenities that were perfect for our family of 11. We spent each morning and evening on the patio and hot tub soaking in the mountain view. Several nice hiking trails nearby and Hamilton is conveniently close. Easy drive from Missoula airport. Stephanie responds to inquiries very quickly. Would love to come back!

    Stephanie & Ryan did a fantastic job from start to finish making sure all questions and accomodations were met/exceeded. Their beautiful, and well kept house, was a perfect getaway for our large family.

    The Lodge at Mill Creek is spectacular! The house was super clean and beautifully furnished. We stayed 8 nights for a family gathering and were completely amazed by the amenities offered. We enjoyed swimming, kayaking and fishing in the pond; playing all kinds of games in the gym and house; the hot tub; fire pit and just lounging on the lovely patois with terrific views! The house was really well stocked with supplies. Stephanie and Ryan were exceptionally responsive to any questions or needs. Can’t say enough good things about this property! Highly recommend!
