This vacation home is in a quiet, peaceful, park-like setting on four acres along the beautiful Bitterroot River, convenient to Missoula which is just 13 miles away.
Enjoy your morning coffee on the deck while you watch beautiful sunrises over the river and Sapphire Mountains. In the evening, watch the sun set over the Bitterroot Mountains. Fish, swim, or float the river behind the house.
Hike miles of nearby trails to rugged peaks and mountain lakes, creeks and ponds. Wildlife abound. Canada geese and a variety of ducks use the river. Watch deer and fox wander through the property and eagles and osprey dipping for fish.
The living room, with glass doors opening to the deck, faces the river and the Sapphire mountain range. The family room faces west to the Bitterroot mountain range and contains a futon which is suitable for one adult or two children. There are two bedrooms, each with a large bathroom. The main bedroom has a queen bed, the second bedroom has two twin beds. The sunroom is connected to the main bedroom through french doors. The kitchen is fully equipped.
Just 45 minutes away is one of the best mule deer hunting units in the west and 20 minutes to excellent archery hunting for deer at the Lee Metcalf Wildlife Refuge.
Some comments from our guestbook:
"Thank you so much for sharing this lovely part of Montana with us! The home and setting were so inspiring to all who visited."
"You have such a wonderful home! We had a great time relaxing, tubing, and hanging out in Missoula. The kids enjoyed Splash Mountain. Our favorite was just sitting on the deck in the evening watching the river and the animals."
"All the men in the family loved being at the river. Thank you for your kindness."
"We enjoyed our stay in the Bitterroot Valley and have many fond memories of your place on the river. Thank you for sharing your piece of heaven with us."
