We bought the modern farmhouse about 20 years ago when it wasn't so modern. Over the years, we've built fences, added walls and taken a few down. Most recently, we remodeled the whole place inside and out. The house is bright, roomy and comfortable with mountain views out every window. We got married in the pasture out back, our daughter was born here and we’ve always found a bit of magic in this place. We hope you'll find that magic too!

Specifics: Bedrooms The modern farmhousehas two bedrooms. The first is downstairs and has two cozy and comfortable single beds. This room has views of an old rock barn with mountains beyond. The second bedroom is upstairs with a memory foam queen bed with views of the hills in the distance, tall evergreen trees and a 100-year-old lilac tree. There are two additional sleeping spaces one in the main living room on the ground floor and one in the upstairs den. Other spaces: The living room is bright and comfortable with two arm chairs and an L-shaped couch. This couch pulls out into a full bed to accommodate extra guests. The dining room features a handmade table with seating for eight and views of Graywolf Peak. The kitchen is gloriously big with big windows, stainless modern appliances and a cafe table for two perfect for morning coffee or evening wine. There is one bathroom with a shower/tub combination, a low-flow toilet and two vanities with sinks and mirrors. Upstairs, there is a den with another fold out couch, books, books and more books, and a flatscreen Roku TV. Outside and facing one of the prettiest views around, our back deck has a patio table with chairs for outdoor dining and other chairs to sit, relax and enjoy the view.

A note on dogs: We love dogs. We own two poorly behaved puppies but when we bring them to the Modern Farmhouse we either keep them leashed or under flawless, strict voice command. We ask you to do the same for the safety of our neighbors’ livestock and for the safety of your dogs. It’s actually legal for a rancher to shoot a dog that’s chasing his or her cows. Harsh but a true fact of the rural west.

A note on place: Arlee, Montana sits on the Flathead Indian Reservation. It's a small western town with a mix of cultures and a serious high school basketball dynasty. American Indians, ranchers, Buddhists, hippies and some folks who fit in all of the above categories – some none -- live here and a few folks like us live here because we think it's pretty. In this valley you’ll find human complexity in all its grandeur! Arlee Wilson’s, downtown on Highway 93 North, is a gas station/small grocery store.

    A lot better accommodations than you would find in a hotel. Woke up feeling you were on the farm. Great choice for our short stay in Montana.

    Nicely renovated and appointed old farmhouse. Minor hiccup getting into the house--access code was changed last minute, which led to some late-night confusion and frustration getting into the house--and the upstairs double bed wasnt ideal (a futon that barely fit two small preteens)--but overall a great place to stopover on a long road trip. Would definitely stay here again.

    We had a wonderful stay at this property. The location was gorgeous and we wished we were staying longer. The house and property were better than described and the host was friendly, responsive, and professional. We hope to stay here again one day!

    Only snag we encountered is the deadbolt lock battery was dead. I reached out to the host who immediately called and remedied us we were in the home within 5 minutes. Spactiuos and sleeps many. I have no complaints. Excellence.

    This is a peaceful little place that offers plenty of things to keep the kids busy, is removed from town without feeling too isolated. We had a lovely campfire while the kids played in the tree house. We have a toddler which did require a watchful eye as there are some tricky stairs in and around the place as well as a small stream on one edge of the property, which also added to the charm. Accommodations are modest but cozy and more than sufficient. Would recommend to anyone.

    We had a wonderful time at the farmhouse. It is in a lovely location and nicely secluded. It was nice to get away from the city and enjoy the peace and quiet this property offers. Will definitely be back!

    This is a cute home nestled back from the road. The road can be a little rough, but with the location it’s to be expected. The no curtain/no privacy thing was a little odd for us big Texas city folk, but once we realized that only the cows were within viewing distance, it really was no big deal. I was every morning by the two horses next door. The creek that runs through the property was absolutely charming and the little hidden creek visitor was a nice touch. We also found a fantastic coffee shop up in Arlee (Black Bear Expresso) that we visited daily. 10/10 would recommend.

    Cute place perfect for our overnight stay as we were passing through the area! The driveway was every bit a rough as was described in the listing- any car or van would have trouble, good thing we had an SUV and a truck. There were not pellets available for the stove, which was a bit disappointing, but we made due. Loved the cool wood spiral staircase! Beautiful property/views to wake up to, but also wish there were curtains/blinds for privacy. All said, beautiful place and would recommend to anyone in that area!
