Bitterroot Retreat is amazing! We had the BEST stay and everything was simply perfect. This was the perfect choice for our family of 7 with room for everyone. If you are looking to stay in the Bitterroot area of Montana, this is the only place I'd stay.

The Bitterroot Retreat was a very impressive home. Spacious, well equipped, clean and an excellent location overlooking the Bitterroot River. It was the perfect place for my siblings and I for our annual gathering. Renae was a gracious host and great communicator. We would love to return to this amazing home. Thank you, Renae and Bo, for making your home available for us to enjoy!

The property was absolutely stunning. Our family had an incredible experience and so much fun. Made some amazing new memories that we will never forget. The house was gorgeous inside and out. Sunsets, the porch, fire pit, wildlife and how close to the river it was, was unreal. Access to Hamilton/Darby very easy to navigate our way around. The whole family had such a wonderful time. The view was incredible and something you just cannot beat. We are so grateful for the opportunity to share your house with us and we hope to eventually return someday. (And catch fish like Bo does!) ;) Thank you Bo & Renea for everything.

Fantastic Stay

Looking for plenty of room for a family gathering or group of friends, this home is perfect! Comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, space for everyone to relax. We enjoyed the outdoor deck each day with awesome views of the beautiful Bitterroot river and wildlife. Renae is a wonderful host and provided an accommodation that exceeded our expectation.

Absolutely wonderful home and location

This was the most wonderful home and made it a vacation that we will remember for a long time to come. The home is exactly as the pictures depict, spacious, well decorated, spacious and lots of amenities. The location was amazing and we spent hours sitting on the back porch, into the late night, listening to the rippling river. Would come back again without hesitation!

Memories were made!

This was one of the best family trips we have taken! Everything was so incredibly easy. The views were stunning. Accommodations were great for our large group/family and easy driving to hiking trails and both downtown Hamilton and Darby. No one wanted to leave so we will definitely be back!

Another great visit to the Bitterroot Retreat

This was our second time staying at the Bitterroot Retreat house and we had another fantastic time! The sunsets each night while sitting on the back deck were amazing! The fishing was great and we saw lots of wildlife (there's a mother moose and her calf near the park in downtown Hamilton). Lots of great hikes nearby too. The house was again awesome!

A Week In Hamilton With Family

We own a large property nearby, but no living quarters. Your house is a beautiful property on the river and the perfect place to stay. We rented from previous owner and we were amazed at the improvements you have made. Great experience staying there!

Really nice stay

Overall, really good stay. Beautiful spot right on the river, really felt safe and relaxing. We did run out of a few things that should have been available like paper towels and trash bags. However, those were minor issues.

This is the best home we could have found in Hamilton for our needs. You never know from the photos on VRBO, but this home is everything and more. Right on the river with great views/wildlife and 5 minutes from town. The home has all you need to feel like you are home.

A little slice of heaven

Absolutely gorgeous home on the river. Sunsets from the deck were spectacular. The house provided everything family needed for gathering as well as enough room for “alone time.” Renae was more than helpful and responded quickly to any messages. I can’t think of a better place to stay, and will recommend this VRBO to anyone I know seeking the best of a Montana experience.
