A Peaceful Must Stay Location

This exactly as the description promised, easy location close to the airport and local amenities, and a quiet location. I stayed for a week at this place and had a wonderful time traveling to Livingston, Big Sky, and all over Bozeman. The hosts prepared the area very well and stocked it well with essentials that made it convenient for a solo traveler (like a hair dryer, first aid kit, and coffee!). I am excited to return someday and cannot recommend this rental enough, as it is perfect for a single person or couple. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone looking for that ‘at home’ feel while you are away from home.

Quiet and secluded stay but super close to everything!

Perfect location for us to stay in while visiting family in Bozeman. Quiet, secluded, and just the right size for our week in Bozeman. Only downside is no air conditioning but fans in bedroom and front room. Open the windows (screened) and the breeze (and fresh air) was great! Nice touch with the rabbit outside every day (wild rabbit who liked to nibble on the grass). :) Hosts were super friendly and fun to chat with.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 Sept 2023
Tracy, yes we are quiet and secluded at KL Mountain Vista. Air conditioning was not the standard in Bozeman when the home was built. Now with global warming we do get a few hotter days in the valley. With the installing of fans the temperature is much better on the days it is hot! The bunnies have been active this summer.

Peaceful Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mountain Vista. The location was so quiet and we were surrounded by nature including a deer who visited a few times. The landscaping is beautiful; Karen and hubby take wonderful care of the yard and property. When we had questions, they responded quickly and were very pleasant hosts. The apartment was perfect for the two of us ; well appointed kitchen, good wifi, comfy bed, and all the amenities we needed. It was convenient to everything we visited in the area. We would happily stay there again. Thanks Karen!

About the host

Hosted by Karen Lanz

Host profile image
Your host resides on the property. I am retired after a 40 year surgical nursing career at the Bozeman hospital. I raised my family at KL Mountain Vista. It was our homestead that had a conglomeration of animals over the years. May you enjoy this bit of heaven here as we have since 1978. In 1995 we built the present farmhouse and cottage. I love people and have missed the interaction so have decided to bring people to me! I am excited to share the splendor and uniqueness of this oasis.

Why they chose this property

The cottage is sitting on a unique oasis of 20 acres of land with the city minutes away. One can enjoy nature and the solitude it has to offer.

What makes this property unique

The property is located rurally but is close to Bozeman and activities. One can walk out the door and be in nature and all it has to offer for one’s soul. The mountains, sunrises and sunsets are spectacular from here!
