Our lovely home has been described as "Country living in the city" and, as such, the location cannot be beat. Our quiet street provides a wonderful setting for relaxation and splendid views. We are an easy walk or drive to MSU or downtown (1/2 mile to Main St.).
You’ll love this home for the ambiance, views, the neighborhood, the light, and the comfy beds. The furniture and beds are all new. The house water comes from our well providing fresh, tasteless, crystal clear Montana water!
The house, built in 1960, is fully furnished with four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. There is one queen bed in each bedroom; in addition, the fourth bedroom also has one twin. Lots of closet space. Open space "great room" (living, dining, kitchen) and a recreation/TV room. Fully equipped kitchen; high-speed Wi-Fi and cable TV. Garage is available for one vehicle (note: height limit of 6'2").
A former guest had this to say: This beautiful home is in a superb location. We walked the half mile to the Montana State University campus and the half (plus) mile to Main Street. The home is tastefully appointed. It is open concept with 3 bedrooms off the upper main living room and kitchen. A fourth bedroom downstairs is next to a large den / TV room. The kitchen and living room look out over a meadow onto the spectacular Gallatin Mountains. Wow! You really feel as if you are in the country.
We want you to know that we’re doing our part to help our guests stay safe by cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched surfaces (light switches, doorknobs, cabinet handles, remotes, etc.) before you check in.
There is a small apartment behind the house, just above the garage, that may or may not be occupied. Please respect the area past the garage as private. We ask the same of the apartment occupants. Therefore, we ask that the garage is only to be used for vehicle or gear storage, i.e., no partying or other noise in the garage.
Plenty of outdoor venues for both alpine and cross country skiing, mountain biking, hiking, fishing, hunting, swimming, horse back riding.
Downhill skiing - easy accessibility to Bridger Bowl and Big Sky. Cross country skiing is available in town (many nearby trails) and the revitalized Crosscut Mountain Sports Center up Bridger Canyon.
There are some great biking trails in town, easily accessible from the house. No need to load the bikes up and drive anywhere!
Yellowstone National Park is 1 1/2 hours to either the Gardiner entrance or West Yellowstone.
Anglers? This is the perfect getaway with access to the Gallatin River, the Madison River, the Yellowstone River, the Missouri and Jefferson Rivers and many spring creeks, streams and alpine lakes.
Numerous Hot Springs including Bozeman Hot Springs, Norris Hot Springs, Chico Hot Springs and the Boiling River located in Yellowstone.
Downtown Bozeman is a lovely walk, if you choose. There is a variety of restaurants and bars along with art galleries and shopping for all. Montana State University and the Emerson Cultural Center are among others for special events and ongoing concerts.
Enjoy your stay!

The house was an excellent choice for our group attending a wedding. We knew the house did not have air conditioning and, unfortunately, it was the hottest days of the year in Bozeman during our stay. So, even with fans in the rooms, it was hotter than we would have liked. Otherwise, we had a terrific stay.
This lovely home was exceptionally clean and worked great for the 4 of us. It wasn’t downtown, but it was very centrally located to get to downtown within a 6 minute drive. The view out the front is lovely. Property provided all the necessary conveniences like shower, kitchen and laundry supplies. Beds were also super cozy. Thank you, Gary!
Really enjoyed our time here, conveniently located outside downtown Bozeman. Loved the access to the trails and the green spaces. Plenty of room for our family to spread out in upstairs living room/kitchen and deck! Super easy check in and out.
This location was absolutely perfect! It was close to town but in a quiet neighborhood - it was an ideal spot to return to after several outdoor activities we did in the region. The hosts were fabulous and very communicative. For our family of seven the house was spacious and we had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again - thank you for a terrific experience!

Karen, we're glad you all enjoyed staying in the house and you're welcome back anytime!
-Gary and Sheryl
Very good location for driving to where we needed to be. Was nice to be in a quiet location. Accommodations and amenities fulfilled all needs. Enough room for all to sit around and relax either inside or on deck.
Thank you!
This propert was perfect for a group of 8. The large open kitchen/living allowed us all to gather in one area. It was close to downtown and a short drive to Bridger Bowl Ski.
We are a family of 5 and we loved this property! Location to town was perfect, location to Bridger Bowl and Big Sky was easy. Very well accommodated home! All needs were met along with an extremely clean, well organized, and thoughtful amenities. We look forward to coming back!

Brett-
Glad you enjoyed your stay - we're always happy when guests enjoy the house. Happy new year to you and yours!
-Gary and Sheryl
The house was clean and well cared for. The kitchen had everything we wanted. The beds were very comfortable. Wonderful views of the mountains and deer. It was less than a 10 minute drive to downtown or to the MSU campus
This house was fabulous!! It is in a nice and quiet part of Bozeman but minutes from downtown, MSU and Bozeman trail. Plenty of outside chairs to enjoy the beautiful views of Bozeman and watch the deer walk by. Kitchen is loaded with everything you need. Beds were super comfortable.

So glad you enjoyed your stay, Kevin. We're always pleased when our guests have a good time here! See you next time!
This home is immaculate with excellent space for family gatherings. Just a short drive from downtown Boseman. Our only regret was that we were so busy we didn't have as much time as we would have liked to enjoy the property! Thank you for a great space.

About the host
Hosted by Gary Huckabone
Bren and I have lived here for the last 30 years. We've both lived all over the country but now we call Bozeman home. The kids have grown so we decided to simplify/downsize and offer the house for vacationers. We love Bozeman and hope you do as well!
Why they chose this property
This property really does have a "country feel" to it while being right in the middle of Bozeman. The location just can't be beat.
What makes this property unique
The walking trails around the city are accessible right out the front door. If you want to sit on a quiet deck and watch the birds, you're there. If you choose to walk or bike downtown, you're in the right spot. The "Gallagator Trail" aka the "Linear Trail" is readily accessible (1/8 mile) as well as Peet's Hill and Burke Park.
The house has been completely refurbished with all new furniture and kitchen appliances.
