Amazing place to get away to

The property was warm and inviting, private and well appointed. Incredibly clean, and the bed gave us one of the best nights sleep ever. The hosts thought of everything. Wonderful lakeshore view in a beautiful area. Highly recommended and we hope to stay there again soon.

Perfect Flathead Lake Stay

David and Emily have created an absolute haven on Flathead Lake. The pictures do not do it justice; it is modern yet cozy and full of the kind of touches you would find in an upscale hotel. Woods Bay is a great enclave on the lake with its own bars and restaurants. This house was just about perfect; I am already planning a return trip.

The location is perfect, the view is spectacular, and the house is equipped with everything you need to enjoy your vacation. The marina is nearby, and you can rent a boat to venture out on the lake, or get a couple of kayaks or paddle-boards. Definitely a unique place. Also, across the street, you'll find a small restaurant with spectacular food and a unique wine selection—an experience not to be missed. Thank you, David and Emily.

Private lakefront

The property was completely updated, private driveway entrance and nestled on lakefront property. Both bedrooms with beautiful views of the lake and we had an assume full moon during our short stay. The property is just several miles South of Bigfork historic area and close to all the beauty of Montana outdoor activities. The property owner was super helpful and gracious. We would return to this location.

Amazing

I am not one to write reviews, but for this stay I just have to share. The house was clean, stylish, new and fresh. The hosts paid attention to every little detail. Right on the water so it was easy to launch our kayaks and swim. We loved this stay so much; we have already booked a return trip. Thank you!

Skipping Stone Lake House

This is our second stay at the Skipping Stone Lake House. I grew up on Flathead Lake and have stayed all around most parts of the Lake. I have a family members that live on the lake all year around. Once again we truly enjoyed our time there. The setting is spectacular. The access is so very convenient. As well, the location is convenient for short trips to the store for groceries and essentials. As well there is the Wine Store right across the highway from the house.. We truly wanted to stay longer.... We hope to have the priviledge of booking a longer stay next summer.

Great house! Perfect for a family of four. Host was punctual with all of our needs. Beautiful view of the lake. The ONLY thing I'd criticize is the road noise. The house is very close to a busy highway that you can hear from inside the house and sitting out by the lake.
