Top notch bedding and full baths for both bedrooms. Babbling brook behind the cottage was a lovely place to start the day. Quiet neighborhood. 25 minute walkable distance to downtown Bozeman. Appreciated the easy parking. Lovely for a wedding weekend!

Comfortable cottage in a delightful setting!! The cottage is a perfect size with plenty of room, amenities, and privacy for two couples. We enjoyed the yard with a large grass area and easy access to the creek. It is a nice quiet retreat near a number of restaurants and shops. Our host was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay.

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this property. SO clean! They thought of everything you might need and then some. They have games and books to enjoy and the Roku TV was awesome. You can have a fire, walk in the creek, grill and even become friends with an awesome dog named Henry who greets you. Bart (the property host) was so incredibly nice and just a door knock away. It was very close to town which was so convenient. I would 100 % recommend this Vrbo and we will definitely stay there again on our next visit.

Bozeman ski trip

We had a great time staying at Bart‘s cottage. He was very helpful and offered for us to walk on his wood deck rather than the icy path, which we appreciated! The kitchen is well stocked, and we appreciated all the extra amenities. We would recommend staying here!

Bridger Bowl Ski trip

The location was convenient to the downtown area and Bridger Bowl. It was a quiet neighborhood and the owner, Bart was very helpful. We would highly recommend this lovely cottage. The cottage was clean, well equipped, and very comfortable. Our other son lives in Bozeman and it was convenient for him to come and visit and have dinner
