Perfect for our family!

My son and his fam live 10 minutes away from the house so it is perfect us to come and go. There are so many yard games and the fire pit for evenings and we even used the bbq pit this time. Everything was perfect!

Super clean and comfy the whole fam loved

We came in town for soccer and we loved this cabin. Super clean and well stocked. Loved the backyard games and fire pit. My youngest loved playing baseball outside. The master bed was the most comfy we have ever had with the softest sheets. I think I actually slept better here than at home! Close to river for fishing and to town for take out Would def stay again

Enjoyable

This property was awesome. Great location, close to eveything we wanted to see. Property owners had a very well stocked home with pretty much everything you might need. Great welcome book with lots of information about the things to do and restaurants in the surrounding area. It was very neat and clean. It was exactly as listed & pictures of the home were exactly as it was. I will definitely stay at this home again the next time I come to Stevensville.

Very well appointed log home with a rustic Montana feel! This home was a perfect place to spend a few days exploring the Bitterroot Valley with old friends. New appliances, exceptionally clean, and friendly hosts. Highly recommend this home!

AMAZING PLACE TO STAY!

I cannot brag on this particular VRBO enough Pasha was the best host I have ever encountered, and this cabin was the perfect place for my family and myself. Everything that you could possibly need is available at the cabin, and we loved the personal touches left throughout the cabin. We have already discussed coming back to this cozy place in the future. Great for all ages for sure!

Home away from home!

As soon as we arrived we felt the coziness and hospitality that this sweet cabin offers. We were somewhat "weary travelers" and this was a great spot to rest. The beds were cozy and the porches were so inviting. Our kids loved the outdoor yard games! The kitchen and laundry room were stocked well and it truly felt like home.

Got five stars because six wasn’t an option

Second time here and both stays were great. Extremely relaxing and a wonderful way to unplug and recharge. This home was spotless and every want was at our fingertips. Great location yards from the river and five minutes from a store for snacks and all the rid bits you forgot. We will be back again.

Perfect Vacation Home

Our two sons live in Montana and we came for the oldest wedding. It was the perfect home. You felt so comfortable there. No personal photos or belonging to feel you were in their house when they were gone. The decor is perfect. Love the seasonal decor. We will definitely stay again.

Stellar experience. The cabin is thoughtfully designed. It was plenty spacious for me and my husband and our three boys, ages 15, 12, and 2. The layout is such that people sleeping in the bedrooms aren’t disturbed by noise in the living area. Immaculately clean. Extraordinarily pretty and comfortable, with details like nice-smelling towels, fresh mums on the porch (we were there in the fall), seasonal pillows and floral arrangements on couches, chairs, and even the balcony, and a scented candle for us to burn. The master bedroom bed is theee most comfortable bed in the world, and the sheets are incredibly soft. Exceeded my expectations in accommodations and diversions for our 2-year-old: clean Pack ‘n’ Play; bins of blocks, cars, and puzzles; a high chair; even a kids’ book about Montana - all tucked away in gorgeous baskets! Loved the fire pit (and there was plenty of wood chopped for us), bags and plastic axe-throwing game for the big boys, and porch swings! Loved seeing mountains right out our door. A stone’s throw from a great grocery store. Short walk to Bitterroot River. Three-minute drive to downtown, which is cute. Can’t say enough good things about This cabin.

Beautiful!

This cabin was picture perfect! It is just like the pictures but better! Very clean and perfectly decorated. I was hoping to be a little further away from neighbors but the privacy fence around the backyard helped. I strongly recommend this home. It had everything we needed. We will definitely book again if we come back to Montana!

Attention to detail is amazing!

My husband was so excited to stay in a log cabin and he loved it. I loved the cleanliness and attention to detail. Also loved that is was quiet. We live in the country and I am very picky about sounds. Would definitely recommend this home!

Wonderful stay

We had an excellent stay. Over the course of the weekend. I had a few questions that were almost immediately answered. Saturday night we sat outside around the fire ring and enjoyed looking at the stars. We will definitely stay here if we are back in the area in the future. The only reason we gave everything five stars is because we could not give a higher rating.

Lovely Home

This was the most well stocked home we’ve stayed in. From the basket of welcome snacks to the coffee and creamer and even the lovely shampoo/conditioner sets in the showers. Very stylish decor, plenty of space and even enough hangers to move right in and feel at home. Once settled in you notice the peaceful surroundings. Lovely sunset views off the patio upstairs. Kitchen is well sticked for cooking and there is a grocery store nearby. We also went out to eat as town is just a short drive. We were there to fish and there are many well marked fishing access points nearby. This is a great spot to use as a home base to explore the area. I would highly recommend!!
