    The Bird House exemplifies the passionately unique Vrbo experience. This is above and beyond what any hotel - or most vacation rentals can deliver. There is a thoughtfulness and focus on details that can not be copied by any chain. Not even the location. 5 miles out from the town of Florence and 20 or so from Missoula is a mountain retreat well worth the journey along the picturesque, winding unpaved roads. (Even those are smooth and well maintained!) Your well appointed deck overlooks beautiful mountains, fields, forest and a cozy fire pit area...and of course the birds visiting the grounds, bird houses and feeders. Inside, the decor is quality Mission-style furnishings in wood and leather with finer-than-museum-quality tableaus of native art and specimens of waterfowl and game birds - as well as other displays that you might find in a natural history museum. Even if bird taxidermy isn't your thing, you will appreciate the detail and artistry of these displays. The attention to detail at the Bird House goes well beyond the stunning displays and decor. Comfort, convenience and good old-fashioned thoughtfulness is everywhere. I've operated a 5-star rental for 6 years and know what it takes to deliver this level of convenience. The cupboards, coffee station and cooking areas are stocked with spices and more than basics. And it was done with pride – and a sense of kindness, hospitality experience and human decency. Bravo and thanks to these amazing fellow hosts!!!

    Loved the property! There's only one problem. My guest slipped and fell on the mat by the tub. If I can please reach out to the owners, I'd like to discuss this with them

    The road in was a precursor to the great and wonderful location, so lovely.The Birdhouse is the best VRBO experience we have ever had. Super clean, overstocked kitchen, awesome shower heads, comfy furniture. But the BEST was the sunrise from the porch! Loved all the taxidermy, they are true experts in this field, very tastefully decorated. The pups were so welcoming as well and such good dogs. Thank you so much!!!

    Fantastic! The BirdHouse is Incredible! There are places where you arrive and walk in and it is nice, then once in a while there are places where you walk in and sigh and feel I am home The host have thought of everything with a few little very nice surprises. Next time I should be so lucky!

    Very nice house an accommodating for us. Bedrooms were large enough. And living room inviting. Kutcher was supplied well. The deck was our favorite, we loved watching the birds. Watching a bee fight for ownership of the hummingbird feeded with a persistent hummingbird was a delight.

    My 87yo mother and I were looking for a place in the mountains and the Bird House delivered. Quiet and secluded but only 15mins from Florence it was a wonderful mix of dirty roads and nearby amenities like the Back Yard Taphouse. Dealing with the homeowners and their family was an easy text with quick response. We enjoyed exploring the chicken coop and tree house on the property. The house is well stocked with all the necessities in the kitchen and bathroom. There wasn’t anything we needed that wasn’t provided. We loved our stay. As a note, as non-hunters, it took a minute to get used to the number and size of the taxidermy birds. They are clearly works of art and the kids enjoyed researching to determine the species on display.

    We felt like we were truly having the Montana experience. The house was very comfortable with abundant linens and supplies. There was a sense of freedom and inclusion from the owners. We'd like to return to The Bird House.

    This is the most comfortable VRBO experience we have had. The beds, the size of the home, the private back porch, the AC…the host was also so helpful with info on local hikes and events. It was a perfect jumping off point to explore the Bitterroot Valley. We wound up extending our stay because we just weren’t ready to leave! Highly recommend.

    Our stay at the Birdhouse was magical. The home is beautiful, cozy and extremely comfortable, with magnificent views, a spacious kitchen, and beautiful displays of our host's taxidermied birds that we loved looking at. The covered deck is spacious and perfect for grilling and a pleasant evening outdoors. We saw tons of birds visiting the feeders arrayed outside. Our son loved playing with Eugene's friendly and spirited dogs and looked forward to visiting the chicken coop every day. Our hosts were warm and gracious and welcomed us to wander the grounds. We could not have asked for a better place to stay during our visit to the Bitterroots.

    The Birdhouse is such a comfortable and relaxing place. The beds are great, living room is so inviting, kitchen is well stocked (even with fresh eggs), and the deck is such a joy for watching birds and taking in the beautiful surroundings. Eugene was quick to answer any questions and easy to connect with. And if that wasn't enough, we loved time our with the sweet dogs, Lacey and Tana. We highly recommend a stay here and hope to return.
