About this property
Bighorn River fly fishing - Lake bass fishing - Waterfowling - Sleeps 2 - 8
There is a reason that this property is rated “10/10 Exceptional” over the past seven years. You cannot find a house in Ft. Smith that offers as comfort – so much room, quality beds, leather furniture, open mountain views and kitchen amenities that the TroutHouse in Ft. Smith does – all only a quick walk from the fly shops, gas station and convenience store. And you can stay connected with the fastest wireless signal in Ft. Smith from its Starlink satellite dish.
This property was set up by owners who know Montana and what it takes to have a great day on the water or in the field. Directly put, it’s a first-class ticket for coach fare when you want to do a trip right. It’s an impeccably maintained home just two blocks south of the fly shops and Yellowtail Market on HWY 313 in Fort Smith.
But probably most notable is that we do more than just rent a ten star property. We help our guests with everything from most trusted guides and proven fly patterns to discount boat rentals and river intel -- just ask us and we "got a guy" to help make your trip great.
The TroutHouse is located only ½ mile from the Bighorn River launch Afterbay boat ramp and even closer to the entrance of the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area, near the Yellowtail Dam.
The house sleeps eight (six beds), featuring 3 bedrooms – 2 queen beds and two pairs (4 beds) of sturdy twin XL bunk beds (1/2 of king size). It has 2 full bathrooms, and a washer/dryer in the mud/wader room. The mud room is set up to easily take off your gear and dry out your waders and hunting clothes overnight. If you need to stay connected to the office, the house has a second monitor, office chair, and desk to give you a comfortable space to do what you need.
The cabin features a large party deck with lots of patio furniture for outside lounging, a propane Weber grill, and a rod and gear utility shed if additional secure storage is needed during your stay. There is ample parking for 6 vehicles and the circle driveway makes it easy to manage boat trailers.
This property has a fully equipped kitchen, relaxing family room with HDTV, DVD player, MP3 compatible stereo and plenty of private space throughout house. Central heating and A/C ensure your stay will comfy regardless of the season. The house’s high speed dedicated wireless internet (90mg per second) service offers guests’ unlimited access to streaming and a wide selection of digital content.
We look forward to hosting you on your next trip to the Bighorn.

About the host
Hosted by Bighorn Fish
Joe, Randy, Eddy and Matt have been wildly addicted to Bighorn for decades. We have searched for years for the perfect property. In addition to the property, we offer our numbers so that guests can call us as they prepare for their trip to get the latest intel on the river. We want your trip to be a legendary life-long memory.
Why they chose this property
It’s rare to find a place that makes a vacation better - the house makes a trip to the Bighorn convenient and easy.
What makes this property unique
When you walk in it feels like a home and not a rental. Fully equipped stocked kitchen with every appliance you'd ever need and knives sharper than you'll find at home. Super comfortable leather furniture. The fastest wifi connection in Fort Smith (StarLink) with Big Screen TV and MP3 stereo. Heck, our wives love to come up and stay because the property is a home. There is no property that can comfortably host eight guests for this price in Big Horn county.
