Absolutely loved this cabin. Clean, cute and comfortable. The host had everything perfect for our stay. The back porch was the perfect spot to enjoy a cup of coffee and listen to birds before heading off to explore the area.
The cottage was clean and peaceful. We appreciated the coffee, the back porch sitting area, the phenomenal water pressure, comfortable bed and pillows, convenient layout, and friendly hosts.
Excellent place to stay in Virginia City! We were able to easily walk to many of the historic sites in town. The home was beautiful and clean and well stocked! Felt like home!
This was perfect for four men to stay on a fishing trip. Not only did it have one of the best coffee bars I could have asked for. They greeted us with a bottle of creamer when we got there. This place fits so perfectly with the nostalgia of the entire town of Virginia City. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you for having us
Great space, with nice living area, bedroom and loft. The porch was amazing absolute dream, with birds flitting around, and quiet atmosphere. The hosts were kind and helpful. I really enjoyed this cabin.
The cabin is well appointed and beautifully decorated. It was a very quiet and relaxing stay. The backyard is a gorgeous spot to sit and birdwatch. The location is great for day trips to Yellowstone, Philipsburg, Bozeman. Virginia City is a fun place to pan for gems and catch up on Montana history. There’s some excellent restaurants there also. Would recommend for couples especially.
This is a beautiful little cabin, well-furnished, comfortable bed, perfectly located to enjoy Virginia City and the surrounding area. We really enjoyed our mornings sitting on the porch overlooking the beautiful garden. Parking was easy and convenient. Pat and Mark are excellent hosts who are welcoming and always happy to help. We had a very minor problem starting the ceiling fan and they took care of it immediately. The cabin was well supplied and they even had some cool welcoming beverages, which was much appreciated. The weather was hot and we were a bit concerned but with the provided fans we were fine. Virginia City is a special place, and this cabin is the perfect home base to enjoy it from!
This historic cabin exceeded our expectations. It was a great “home base” for exploring. Hosts Pat and Mark are so very kind and friendly. They gave excellent recommendations on restaurants and near by attractions. The cabin feels very roomy and is clean, comfortable, and very well organized and maintained. The town is quaint and delightful. We highly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this lovely appointed cabin.
Beautiful setting, very relaxing deck, lovely cabin, great location in a historical area. Would totally recommend to anybody looking for a great getaway!
We loved staying at this little cabin! House was clean and inviting and close to town
Great experience and location! We loved the little extra touches like French Press coffee and biscotti on the back porch overlooking the beautiful back yard. We will definitely stay again!
Lovely comfortable cabin close to the historic district. My favorite things: the porch swing and Junie Bee, the hosts’ lab. I would definitely stay here again.
Clean, cozy, quiet cabin close to everything. The back porch and gardens are so beautiful and peaceful. We can’t wait to come back next year for our 5th summer stay at this perfect place! Thank you!
