We had such a wonderful time in Missoula and the home was exactly as described, but even better. The home was spotless, had all the amenities we needed and had restaurants and bars and groceries within walking distance. We’d highly recommend it!

I find this apartment comfortable and convenient. I even signed up to return soon.

I would stay here again. That should say it all. If you like to bike, the town pathways are very close. There is shopping nearby. Parking good. Kitchen had everything I needed. Clean washer/dryer. Most importantly, the owner is friendly and accommodating.

It was fine

It was fine, only comment is - it's downstairs between 2 other apartments, so it's kinda dark inside. Fully equipped with everything you could need, everything works. Ava is helpful.

Our summer stay

Our overall impression of this property is very positive. Any questions were answered in a timely manner. The description in the add is accurate. Staying for three months, we enjoyed meeting the property owners. Only drawback was, we have never lived in a multi unit building, so we had a learning curve.

Perfect for a place to stay for a few (or quite a few) nights.

Okay, it's not a big house with a pool and many bedrooms and baths, so if you want that look elsewhere. This, however is a delightful small apartment comparable to nicer hotel rooms with the added features of a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and interesting (if somewhat eclectic) decorating. Squeaky clean. It is in a six unit apartment unit, but very quiet, parking right outside the back door, and little street noise. Highly recommended, and we will probably try to book again next year.

Quiet apartment, warm & comfy, with a respectfully hands-off host. We stayed several days, left and there were no checkout procedures, but everything was just right! Enough power/outlets in the bedroom & good kitchen amenities.

Adequate

The apartment was adequate. The host was responsive when the internet did not work. The TV was sketchy. The bed was uncomfortable. The walls were paper thin, and there was occasional noise. I was taken aback by the list of cleaning requirements left on the table. Were we meant to do the cleaning for the next renters? Wereturn.leWere wecleaning?

About the host

Hosted by Ava Patricia Cloud

Host profile image
Our four generations have combined creative forces to offer this great little vacation gem. We have been blessed to live in beautiful Montana for 20 + years and continue to pinch ourselves daily. We come originally from the east & west coasts and spent 20 years in Alaska before finding our home in the Bitterroot Valley.
We have 3 daughters, our son-in-law, and our beautiful grandchildren living in Missoula.
We live in our country home 35 miles southeast of Missoula outside of Stevensville, MT.
Thank you for visiting our site.

Why they chose this property

Spending time with our children & grandchildren is high priority for us, besides finding Missoula a beautiful, active & compelling community. There is something to do every night if you want to go out and about, or stay at home and enjoy the cool summer & cozy winter nights. Missoula may be small by city standards but it has a huge heart that expresses itself in community events, Saturday & Sunday Farmers Markets, art, music, theatre, dance, Griz football, Osprey baseball, great food & beverages all abound.

What makes this property unique

Attention to detail, fine craftsmanship & location, helped us fall in love with the Catlin Gem Apartment. Inside is a well appointed and cozy space filled with comfortable and interesting furnishings. Step outside and within minutes you are either in the heart of the bustling downtown area, hiking up Mount Jumbo, floating or fishing the Clark Fork, Bitterroot and Blackfoot Rivers or exploring, hiking or downhill/cross country skiing the Rattlesnake wilderness, Snowbowl, Lost Trail, Pattee Canyon or Blue Mountain. Entertainment, relaxation and exploration are only bounded by the imagination!
