Experience true off-grid seclusion and all the comforts of home at our mountain-top retreat. Nestled on 160 private acres bordering Forest Service land, which overlooks the Clark Fork Valley.

Perfectly located midway between Glacier and Yellowstone for the ultimate national park adventure.
Are you looking for an escape from your busy life? If serenity, comfort, gorgeous scenic views, wildlife, and outdoor adventures sound inviting, we've got you covered. Get off the pavement and explore 3.5 miles of dirt road to your mountain getaway! Our road is an adventure, especially if you've never been on a mountain road. You'll want a 4-wheel drive or high-clearance vehicle.
Activities await you in the big sky country! Many lakes and rivers are nearby for water activities like boating, water skiing, and swimming. We facilitate kayaking float trips. Our location is perfect for fishing, as it is close to 4 blue-ribbon trout streams. We offer secluded private access to mountain trails for biking, hiking and 4-wheeling. There are several golf courses nearby. The KettleHouse Amphitheater is a highly ranked outdoor live music venue on the banks of the Blackfoot River just outside of Missoula. Garnet Ghost Town is another favorite historical site for our guests. Since Clinton Market is the closest grocery store (13 miles), we offer pantry stocking services if you would like your groceries waiting for your arrival! (Please inquire about these additional services after booking.) We offer a fire pit for gathering under the starry sky (available as directed by the Forest Service- some restrictions apply). If fires are not allowed during your stay (or you don't feel like building a fire), you can still enjoy the great outdoors around the gas fire pit on the deck.
Treat yourself to a relaxing massage or enjoy the privacy of your mountain getaway.
Experience Montana in a custom-built Craftsman-style lodge with beautiful custom cabinetry and granite countertops throughout, hardwood floors, and a blue-stained pine vaulted ceiling.
