Perched along the Blackfoot River, this modern recently renovated home is on a gorgeous 7-acre historic homestead property dating from the late 1800s. A dream spot for anglers, adventurers, and those looking for some R&R in a serene location, this property is a true escape, yet only minutes from Missoula. While easily accessible from the highway, the property lies tucked away by a mixed conifer forest, a decades old apple orchard, the original homestead cabin, a large barn and our Zen Zone featuring a cedar sided hot tub, sauna, and cold plunge.

This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home boasts a chef's kitchen, breakfast bar, dining area and living room with large picture windows. Each bedroom has French doors that open to the sound of the river, leading to an outside patio with ample seating and great views of the river and mountainside. The master bathroom has a large soaking tub with walk-in closet. Grill out on the patio or pull up a chair to enjoy your morning coffee while soaking in the views of the Blackfoot River. Downstairs is a large family room to unwind in after a day of adventure, watch the Smart TV, or play boardgames.

Located just a few miles up Highway 200 from the historic mill town of Bonner, this home offers great access to outdoor adventures along the Blackfoot River and the Seeley/Swan valley. This retreat sits right along the Blackfoot River and offers anglers lots of fishing access, boaters the ability to raft/kayak/inner tube, and adventurers the opportunity to walk the shores and find quiet beaches to lounge and swim at. The property is pushed back from the highway so you feel secluded and tucked away.

The KettleHouse Amphitheater, with outdoor concerts and a brewery, is only a few miles away. It is 15 min from the airport, 10 min to downtown Missoula for easy access to all amenities and restaurants, and 2.5hr to Glacier National Park. The property is also 20 minutes to Lubrecht Rec area where you can find hiking trails in the summer and cross country ski in the winter. Seeley Lake, famous for its numerous lakes, is just a 45 minute drive from the property as well.

Our smart-locks offer a seamless check-in process. We are available 24 hours a day to help in any way, and are happy to interact as much or as little the guest prefers. Be aware of seasonal changes. Although the driveway is maintained, winter driving conditions may apply.

We’re excited to share that we’ve recently completed the addition of a beautiful sauna, hot tub, and cold plunge area in a private spot overlooking the river. We call this space the Zen Zone and it's a perfect place to unwind and unplug anytime of the year! I only ask that you message me a day or so in advance when you are hoping to use the space. That ensures that I can respect your privacy and I don't do maintenance at that time or soak myself. You are the only guests that have access to the space. You can access the Zen Zone for a maximum of 3hr at a time between 6am and 10pm. Depending on scheduling, you can also arrange an on-site massage for you during your stay!

This is a perfect spot to work remotely with high speed Starlink access. The barn, garage, and homestead are for owners storage use only. We do allow dogs with an extra non-refundable pet cleaning fee.

We live on site in the original homestead cabin and are available if needed, but will keep to ourselves for your privacy. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or needs that might arise.

    The house was great for our family. The kids could go downstairs and do their thing while the adults enjoyed the peace and quiet. The view was awesome, we were able to sit on the deck a little bit before the rain moved it. It was so nice listening to the river. The location was great for the wedding venue we were using. I will definitely keep my info for the place.

    We were in town for a Memorial Service and this house, surrounding gardens, the river and the deer provided us with a peaceful retreat after several busy and emotional days. Thank you for everything, Kate.

    This is a warm and welcoming home on a lovely property next to the river. The host was wonderful to work with, and if you visit, we recommend having Tai come out and give massages. You can get the information from the host. Tai has magic hands! This trip was exactly what we were looking for. Thank you, Kate!

    This was our second stay at the River House. Our adult age daughters joined us and loved the property and the Zen zone amenities. The outdoors are beautifully maintained by Kate and the house interior is updated, comfortable and brings a peace filled week beside the Blackfoot.

    New favorite place to stay in Missoula! The house and grounds were perfect. Only minor negative is cell service can be choppy at times which seems to be common most places we have stayed when visiting Missoula.

    Kate goes out of her way to make sure everything is just so, and the house is immaculate. The views are divine, the space and vibe is incredible. I hope to come back in the summer and just sit and watch the birds. Oh... and you HAVE to save time for the very Zenned out soak and sauna's. ( for an even more Zen experience read the Dharma Bums, found in the library in the basement) -- This property has earned the care it gets and it's so lovely to see people having esteem and grace for the land itself. 24000 stars. -- the kind of place no one could ever complain about.

    The location is beautiful! There is so much room for everyone to spread out and enjoy nature, or circle in around a table and spend time together! We cannot thank you enough for making our Thanksgiving trip one to remember!

    OMG!! Talk about a gorgeous view and piece of property! The house was so nice and cozy:) It was well equipped, very clean, and we loved the floor plan. I absolutely need to get pillows like the ones in the master bedroom😴 The house was a quick 15 minute drive to downtown. Kate was very kind and easy to talk too. We would positively stay here again when we return to Missoula.

    Stop searching and book this property. Everything about the house and property is exceptional. The short walk from the back of the house to the river made our fly fishing easy and productive. Beautiful stretch of the Blackfoot. Short drive to town but you feel as if you are out in the gorgeous MT Big Sky country because…you are. Kate is a gem of a host. This wonderful experience sets the bar high for our next fishing trip! Truly exceptional in every way.

    Perfect house, down to earth host with great communication, just down the road from Missoula, fishing out the back door. What’s not to like. A week my friends and I will reminisce about for years. Can’t wait to go back.

    We enjoyed EVERYTHING about our recent stay. The house was lovely and furnished so comfortably. We enjoyed listening to the river and stargazing at night on the deck. The grounds were beautifully landscaped and Kate was the best host ever!
