Blew away our expectations!!

Our family (2 adults, 3 teen boys) absolutely loved our stay in this stunning cabin! It blew away all of our expectations and we loved every detail in the home. We especially loved the peacefulness of the deck (hearing that stream in the background!) and the beauty of the family room with the large windows. The furniture is all so comfortable and the entire place was exceptionally clean. My sons played many games of ping-pong in the garage and dominos from your game closet. We had our first experience with Montana's "thunder hail" and it was incredible to watch that storm roll in! The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed for preparing multiple meals. The cabin is located up high by itself on rough unpaved roads- not really near anything and it was confusing to find at first - but that solitude was so rewarding and we loved feeling like we were in the woods by ourself! We visited the Sweet Palace candy shop a couple of times and the Granite Ghost Mountain, as well as Echo Lake. If we ever find ourselves out this way again, we would love to stay here again for sure! 5 star review!!

Paradise in the Trees

When I tell you, I did not want to leave… I did not want to leave! We have stayed at several places throughout our travels and this was such an incredible place to relax and unwind. The home was immaculate, the location was so beautiful, our host was fantastic with communication and I could not have asked for a better place to have stayed for our anniversary. If I could rate it more than five stars, I would.

Beautiful home, secluded in the mountains just outside of Philipsburg.

It was really easy to find, very close to town, and surrounded by the pine tree forests. Home was fully stocked with wonderful products and all of the kitchen necessities. The town is quaint and full of great little shops and restaurants. I had the best massage of my life at Renew Wellness and found the best tea blends at the Meadowlark Moose in town.
