Blackfoot River Paradise

Beautiful spot in convenient location to Missoula

Better than advertised!

Fantastic home on the banks of the Blackfoot River just east of Missoula. Pictures don’t do this place justice as the owners, Dale and Jeannie maintain this immaculate home, probably better than you do your own. Highly, highly recommend it!

I can't say enough about how wonderful my stay was on the Blackfoot River. The house had plenty of room for 8 guests and all the beds and linens were very comfortable. It has 3 nice spacious bathrooms, a handy laundry room, and plenty of room to park several vehicles in the driveway.

The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for cooking simple meals. The outdoor space is amazing with a roomy deck made for hanging out with friends. The deck has good furniture and a nice gas grill. The river is right below the house with a view of a cliff behind the river where we watched bald eagles and mountains goats. The location is a perfect combination of quiet country living and accessibility to Missoula. The nearest grocery store is only a quick 7-10 minute drive but the house is as quiet at night as living miles from any town. Floating the Blackfoot river was our favorite activity and it was great to be on the river where we could float right to our own backyard. The house was always a cool, comfortable oasis after a long day of activities. Dale and Jeanie live next door and were available and friendly if I had any questions but they were respectful of our privacy. This will be my go-to rental any time I want to spend time near Missoula.

very nice well equipped and very clean could not ask for more I just thought bed in the river view room was a little high off the ground maybe just me other than that great stay met owner what a great guy

Besides the two black bears we got to watch frolick across the river and the evening entertainment provided by the Big horn sheep on the hillside above the river, the grounds, tiered gardens and riverside gazebo were amazing. Beds were comfortable, the kitchen fully stocked with everything you could need and the huge patio with outstanding view make this a wonderful place to stay. Dale and Jeanie were excellent hosts in an equally large acreage next door, but gave us all the privacy possible while answering any questions if we needed information . The house is well insulated from temperature extremes and noise, so a perfect getaway. There were only 2 of us, so didn’t use the upstairs, but the two bedrooms and bath were nice with great views. If you do require Internet access, it is very spotty and you only get PBS channels on the TV. We found it peaceful to unplug for a few days and it added to the lovely setting.
