About this property

The Bokonon is a unique space in Twin Bridges. Art gallery style.

The Bokonon was created with a recycling ethic. It was my pandemic project, I was collecting materials and rebuilding this structure for close to two years. This unique place has a style all its own, and if you've ever wanted to feel like you're staying in an art gallery, this is the place for you. It is centrally located in the art district and everything in Twin is pretty much across the street or next door.:)

We adored our stay! It was such a fun and unique VRBO. It was fun seeing how an art gallery can be converted. We spent most our time in the cozy tv room all cuddled up playing games. My daughter opted to sleep in the loft that wasn't even mentioned in the listing, it was a very cute added feature. Our only negative (and it wasn't bad) was that the beds are full bed. Yes-the listing says full beds, but I just assumed queen. It was cozy so I didn't reduce my rating and would stay here again. Just wanted to mention it.The location was ideal for if you want to be in town and walking distance to stores, shops, fairgrounds, and restaurants.

STAY HERE!!!

This place is a gem! It’s a stunning and spacious 2 floor townhouse. The host is incredibly kind and communicative. The half bath so convenient traveling with 4 adults. It’s a quiet little town with 2 restaurants basically across the street and a little market with anything you may need. The Hawaiian food at the Old Hotel is so fresh. I highly recommend the pork or tiger shrimp. We grilled out chicken, asparagus and zucchini fresh from the little market. Absolutely wonderful stay. We were sad to leave.

About the host

Hosted by Joe

Host profile image
The Bokonon was a disaster that sat on Main Street in Twin Bridges for over a decade. I bought it in 2020 and did a few things. I split my time between Manhattan, MT and Twin Bridges, MT. They are about an hour apart and I "go south" in the winter to Twin Bridges.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood chose me really. I had remodeled a disaster on the other side of town and when this place came up for sale, I couldn't say no, as self abuse seems to be part of my program. :) Luckily I am recovered from all that now.

What makes this property unique

I have art from many of my friends displayed. It feels like an art gallery which is kind of fun and has many facets to explore. The structure was constructed using many items I found while mining the urban/rural landscape of Montana. Recycling/reusing materials is a hobby of mine and makes the project more challenging but also different from the status quo. There are many fun things to do around Twin Bridges with a little imagination.
