Nice for the entire family. Toy closet a huge hit with the kids. Plenty of room to relax and lots of outside space for morning coffee to the sound of the wildlife and creek. Fire pit for s’mores and a rustic cabin for the glampers! We had two families, 5 couples(coming and going) two littles, and one tween. There was so much space! Nobody had to worry for an empty bed! We enjoyed the huge space and privacy!

Totally relaxed stay in a perfect home. Furnishings were lovely and comfortable with the feeling of staying in a ranch house. It was spotless with everything one would need. The view was extraordinary and appreciated from the comfortable deck. Thank you for our peaceful quilting gathering.

So much room! Loved our stay, the views are jaw dropping. We didn’t get to spend a lot of time at the house due to commitments but definitely wanting to come back with the family to relax. I’m definitely taking the bunk house next time, it’s so cool! My kind of place. I told my wife that I could live here!

Awesome stay at Sheep Camp

Sheep Camp is, hands down, the most beautiful place you will stay in the Bitterroot Valley!! The wrap around porch offers views of all the mountains!!! The grazing cows and all the deer that pass through were fun to watch. Mary Jane was the most accommodating host. The house has everything you would ever need! You will not be disappointed!!!!

I reserved this beautiful home for 4 days while travelling to MT with my adult children and 2 year old grandson to attend a wedding for my niece in Victor. The experience was extremely positive. Mary Jane was friendly, responsive and excellent to work with from the booking through departure. The listing with photographs is exactly what we found when we arrived. A lovely home.

Sheep Camp

The Sheep Camp is a Western Experience come true! In addition to a fully equipped kitchen and comfortable, cozy bedrooms, the entire house is furnished in western memorabilia. Each day we noticed another gem that we had somehow overlooked the day before! The surrounding grounds were another gift! From the beautiful pine trees near the house, the beautiful lawn and lazy stream, we were greeted by beautiful blue skies above the Bitterroot Mt range. Hostess Mary Jane was excellent in every way! Our entire family will always cherish the memories we made here!

Absolutely Perfect!

We went to visit family for a long weekend and sheep camp was the perfect distance to all of the places we wanted to visit. The property was beautiful! There was plenty of room for the kids to play (ping pong and yard games were there!) and the adults stretched out on the wrap around deck with plenty of seating for all 14 of us! The kitchen was great! The only thing missing was an electric griddle for pancakes but we made due with the skillets. Plenty of towels and linens for us all for all 4 days and the washer/dryer really helped with not having to pack an over abundance of clothing. Do not hesitate to stay at Sheep camp it was an awesome get away!

Thank you so much for your suggestion about an electric griddle. I will get one for sure!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Jane Ross

Host profile image
My dad built the Sheep Camp in 1992 and named it after his childhood sheep ranch in eastern Montana where they raised hundreds of sheep during the early 1900s. Now there are no longer sheep, but it is a working cattle ranch. Don't be surprised - you may see a few cows on the road into the Sheep Camp!

Why they chose this property

The Bitterroot Valley has always had a special magic for me. I lived here when I was very young and as soon as I was able, I returned to the Bitterroot to raise my family because for me it is the best place ever. I hope you will love it as much as I do.

What makes this property unique

Eeyore and Lucy are resident burros who originally came from a petting zoo. If you would like to meet them, they would be so happy to be fed some carrots...
