Had the best time in this beautiful home! Mr Evans even came over to help me get the fireplace in my bedroom going! Definitely would love to stay here again when we come back.
The Island getaway is a beautiful home in a beautiful setting. If you like the outdoors, this is a great place for you to stay. We enjoyed relaxing on the top deck and listening to the creek.
We had a wonderful time traveling around the area. The cabin was fantastic in all ways. We sat around the fire with the back door open so we could hear the river. It was Heaven!!
The home is unique for its position within feet of the Stillwater River, nestled among mature hardwoods and pines. The sizeable house is solidly constructed, comfortable and well-appointed for couples or family gatherings. Its relative proximity to Red Lodge and the Beartooth Parkway a big plus too. The property manager and caretaker could not have made it simpler or more convenient for someone unfamiliar with the site. I hope to return again sometime soon!
This cabin was everything we were hoping for and more. it was so AWESOME, comfortable and the property was so nicely keeped. Had all the amenities you would need being away for home. Property manager's Communication was quick to respond to questions i would have. There was 2 porches upper one and the downstairs one and they were so well equipped to being comfortably outside! I would definitely want to go back. We loved the place!!
Incredible view, nice property, whole process very easy. Highly recommend.
This was our second time here and it was even better this time! My only regret is that I did not bring my fishing pole.
Fantastic!!!!
My wife and I loved staying in this charming home. It was clean and the kitchen was well-supplied. The hot tub on the deck, which is creek-side, was awesome. The area is beautiful and there’s are plenty of great hikes and scenic drives. We can’t wait to go back.
great cabin and location. This was exactly what we were hoping for!
My daughter got married in Nye and we used this house for family to stay. Every one loved this house and would stay again.
Perfect size and set-up for our small family reunion.
This piece of heaven is an absolute treasure! So peaceful, very remote, but just perfect!! If you are looking to go off the grid, kinda, this is the place.
Beautiful accommodations and better scenery
The location was beautiful! The hot tub is definitely only a 2 person! The utensils in the kitchen need to be updated like cutting knives for bread, meat etc, the master bed is really soft but since there was only 4 of us the bed in the den was much firmer. Over all nice place.
My wife and I enjoyed a trip in the mountains and this place was amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Our daughter was married nearby and this property was booked to provide our out of state guests a marvelous Montana experience
We took my Grandma, mom, sister and niece for a Mother’s Day trip. The house was great. Beautiful house and beautiful location. The property manager was absolutely great in helping us out with our needs. It was hard to leave and come back home. Great place, great help, great trip.
