Ridgeline Retreat and Accommodations; located in beautiful western Montana

Unplug and enjoy a relaxing retreat at our off-grid log cabin in the serene Montana wilderness. The cabin sits on a secluded ridge, surrounded by Forest Service land with endless recreation opportunities. You will feel miles away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life but are a convenient 15 minute drive to downtown Missoula and MSO International Airport . Montana Snowbowl Ski Area is only a few miles away, offering year round activities.

We found this one of a kind property in 2016 and jumped in head first at the opportunity to live off the grid in the Montana wilderness. The cabin was constructed in 1987, our birth year, signaling it was meant to be. Through several seasons of blood, sweat and tears we continue to make this place our own with numerous improvements to the cabin and grounds.

We are constantly pursuing the challenge of minimizing our footprint. The property runs entirely from renewable energy with the recent installation of an 1800 watt solar array. Water is pumped on site and wood is used for the main source of heat.

The cabin was recently fully remodeled with all the creature comforts one could hope to find. The ground level apartment features a king size bed, full kitchen, spacious living/dining room and bathroom with a shower. Visitors will enjoy a picturesque view into the Rattlesnake National Recreation Area through oversized windows in the bedroom and living room. Wood fired sauna and hot tub available depending on the season. Beautiful sunsets can be enjoyed with a glass of wine on the deck overlooking the Missoula valley.

If we are not out enjoying all that Montana has to offer we can be found living upstairs with our boys Nash and Finn.

IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE:
- Please be mindful of water and energy consumption. The cabin is off the grid, which means we heat with wood, pump our own water and use solar panels/generator for electricity.
- We have two young children. There is always a potential for noise. We do our best to minimize disruptions. There is a white noise maker provided.
- We DO have high speed wifi.
-TV and AC are not available. The cellar is always a comfortable temperature so AC is not necessary.
- During winter months all wheel/4 wheel drive is highly recommended.

Cozy, Comfortable & Private
Waking up to a beautiful view of snow-covered trees with the morning crisp air was just what we needed. The last few times we visited Missoula we opted for a hotel; however, staying at the Ridgeline was the best choice for us this time around. If you want to get away from the city and be off the grid, then this is the place to stay. The hosts were friendly and available if we had any questions. Clean, comfortable, and cozy on a cold winter day.

Awesome Weekend Getaway
We explored Missoula and the surrounding hot springs. This was a lovely place to come back to and rewind. It was remote but still close to civilization and a wonderful spot for friends to reconnect. The beds are also very comfortable!

Tucked away
We absolutely loved this place and being tucked away from the city (but close enough to explore)! Super clean, quiet, and the perfect spot for chill evenings after busy days!
