When the snow melts, nearby National Forest offers endless wildflower fields, hiking trails, wildlife and mountain activities in every season. Just a short scenic drive down Bridger Canyon is the western town of Bozeman, Montana, with great shopping, restaurants and entertainment including the Museum of the Rockies featuring a world-renowned dinosaur bone collection.

Map & Owner's Profile
Best Bridger Bowl House-Log Home-View Slopes-Xmas wk Available
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Bozeman
We completed construction on our custom designed and built log home in August 2006 and it has quickly become a high demand rental for it's luxury and location. It took many years to find the perfect location, and once we found it, we decided to build our dream vacation home.
The Unique Benefits at this Log House
Most of the furniture is custom made to go with the house for both functionality and beauty with a rustic log decor. The log slab dining table was made of the same log as the built in phone desk. The bedroom furniture was custom made for each specific room to accomodate bed sizeand the thickest and best quality mattresses. The Bunk beds were designed for extra long twin mattresses with extra thickness for comfort and to hold an adult on the top bunk. But the best decor items are the antler chandeliers in the dining room and great room that were built by a local antler artist from the antlers collected by Wendy's grandfather in Bridger Canyon. They are a personal heirloom and true works of art.
A GREAT VALUE! A non-profit family ski area that offers outstanding skiing at about 40% less than destination resorts like Big Sky. Great ski school, equipment rental, cafeteria and much more. Wide
Owner's Map of Bozeman
My name is Wendy and I grew up just a few miles from the sight of our vacation home. In fact I am the fifth generation to live in Bridger Canyon where my great-great grandparents homesteaded in the 1880s. Our home is a dream come true for our family not only for the fabulous location in the mountains near skiing, hiking and all that southwest Montana has to offer, but it is also because it is a house we custom designed as our ultimate vacation home. Although we can not live in Montana now, it is a joy for us to see our children play in the mountain sun and wildflowers each summer and ski the slopes in winter and to know that our log home is collecting so many wonderful memories from all the guests who come to enjoy it.
