About this property

“Bella Vista” Overlooking Beautiful Flathead Lake with Great Panoramic Views!

Some of our guests have said, “Amazing place to stay!”, “Hands down incredible!”, “The views are out of this world!”, ”Can’t wait to return!”, “This is our new favorite location!”

Only a stone’s throw from the shores of Beautiful Flathead Lake, sits “Bella Vista” Designed and completed in 2010.

Our exceptional home offers some of the loveliest views in the valley. This top-quality home sits on 2.8 acres and is nicely landscaped with shrubs, trees, and manicured lawns. It is Very Private, but you will appreciate how easy it is to get to Kalispell, Whitefish Mountain Resort, and Glacier National Park.

Wake up in the master suite to a beautiful sunrise spilling over the Swan Mountain Range, with the sun shimmering off the lake surface. Our Spacious Master Bedroom and walk-in-closet is on the main floor, with a “Pottery Barn” wicker sleigh bed. You will feel like a King and Queen in the massive elegant travertine tiled bathroom with a custom shower and a large soaking tub for two.

You will enjoy the main floor of our home as it is very open and cheerful with lots of large windows. The striking Kitchen is well outfitted with cooking at home in mind even though we have quite a few great restaurants in the valley.
Our central vacuum system makes it is a breeze to keep the beautiful hand scraped Hickory Floors clean which are in the kitchen, living room, dining room and master bedroom. Our home is tastefully decorated and is a great place for family gatherings. Next to the master suite is a guest bedroom and full bath that is perfect for children. It is appointed with two hand-carved single beds. Curl up in our cozy living room and watch a movie from our 42 HD Flat Screen T.V. or just gaze at the stupendous alpine-glow sunsets.

Downstairs you will find a very spacious family room with its own full kitchen complete with granite countertops and alder cabinets. Your guests will enjoy the two wonderfully roomy bedroom suites. Last, but not least, is the Forth-of-July room, an ideal retreat room for the person who likes to be out of the way or just sleep in. You can play ping pong, watch a movie or just sit in front of the Hearthstone gas heater enjoying the views. Our home has central heating and cooling and has a very good air filter for the allergy sensitive folks. With two hot water tanks and a circulating pump you will have lots of hot water quickly.

“Bella Vista” was built by us, Robin and Patti Graham, home builders (Rivendell Builders) and authors of the books “Dove” and “Home is the Sailor”. We designed the home to take advantage of the wonderful views of the lake and mountains as they are Truly Magnificent!

We hope to see you soon and we are looking forward to making your vacation the very best.

Best vacay home ever!
This was our second stay at Bella Vista this year. The house is so well situated for a perfect adventure in and around Glacier National Park. After days of hiking, horseback riding, brewery-hopping, and alpine sliding, it was always nice to come home to such spacious comfort. The deck with Flathead Lake view includes a hot tub and fantastic grill. We star-gazed and played endless board games, creating memories that will last a lifetime. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. Lots of extras in the house that make you feel right at home. Communication with owners was without a hitch and we know we shall return!

Wonderful Family Vacation!
This home is beautiful, spacious, clean and has the most incredible views! Our family of 9 enjoyed our time here, as it has all the comforts of home! The hosts are great, and even though the A/C system went out on our 3rd day there, Robin & Patti did everything they possibly could to keep us comfortable, by bringing in extra fans! They were even so kind as to leave us gift certificates for a fabulous meal at a local restaurant! Love this home, the views, and the entire area and if we’re ever back in that part of Montana again, we will be staying here!

Montana retreat
Visited Montana to reconnect with family and enjoy the mountains and Glacier! The homeowners and home were absolutely lovely with gorgeous views, plenty of space for our 8, fun games (ping pong!), and perfect location near the lake.

Bella Vista Vacation 2023
Beautiful well equipped property with awesome views. Very clean. Wonderful place to stay. Property owner stopped by to make sure we didn't have any issues and let us know they were available if we needed them. The listing pictures are great, but the property is even more beautiful in person. Highly recommended.

About the host

Hosted by Robin and Patti Graham

Host profile image
After a 5 year epic voyage of sailing a small boat around the world and writing the books “Dove” and “The Boy Who Sailed Around The World Alone”, Patti and I left the west coast of California forty two years ago to ride the wave of the “Back to the Land Movement” in Montana. We bought a quarter section of mountain top for $95 dollars an acre, built our log home, grew our own food and raised the gamut of farm critters. We also wrote about our struggles of growing in the Christian faith and our experiences of trying to live simply in “Home is the Sailor”. After 32 years we were missing the water so in 2003 we bought an older cabin on Flathead Lake. After spending our first night there we never spent another at the ranch and have never once looked back. We had come home. Two years later we built and moved into our dream home next door to our lovely historic cabin. After we had a couple of wonderful family “VRBO” vacations in Mexico we decided to list our lake cabin as a VRBO rental. It was a great experience. But as time goes on the wanderlust was creeping back and we wanted to do some more traveling. We sold our lake cabin, built nearby a wonderful 3750 sq. ft. “VRBO” yearly rental, 'Bella Vista', on the hillside overlooking Somers Bay and now are offering our personal home, 'A Delightful Sailor's Home', as a VRBO summer rental as we come and go. We hope you will enjoy the Flathead Valley as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Our home in Somers is nestled on the northwest side of beautiful Flathead Lake. Flathead Lake is 28 miles long and up to 15 miles wide. The lake’s sparkling waters and miles of tree-lined shore offer unlimited recreational opportunities and wildlife habitat. Overlooking it all are the magnificent Swan and Mission Mountain ranges.

A mile away along the paved walking and bike path is Somers Bay Café, serving great breakfasts and lunches. A 5 minute drive south to Lakeside is the Tamarack Brewing Company, a fun spot to relax and have a great meal and handcrafted ales.

Located 8 miles south of Kalispell, our community is the destination spot for locals as well as tourists. All four seasons, Somers offers something for everyone. Ski the slopes of Blacktail Mountain (only 30 minutes away) to sailing and boating majestic Flathead Lake. We are 30 minutes from Glacier Park International Airport and only 45 minutes from the magnificent Glacier National Park and Whitefish Mountain Resort (Big Mountain).

Whether you are looking to relax or to play we have it all. Stay inside and catch a movie in our comfy home or just observe the spectacular lake views. In the winter and spring go ski, snowboard, snowshoe, cross country ski or snowmobile. In the summer enjoy water skiing, jet skiing, sailing, kayaking, swimming or fishing. Just a quick 10 minute drive away you will also find Eagle Bend Golf Club, one of the best courses in the Northwest. Other areas of interest include the Bigfork Playhouse, Glacier Symphony and Chorale, Hockaday Museum of Art, the Conrad Mansion, and the Central School Museum.
