Peaceful Montana Retreat on 4 Acres – Clean, Quiet & Surrounded by Nature

4 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms | Dog-Friendly | 4.2 Private Acres
3 miles to Jefferson River | Near Tobacco Root Mountains | 10 miles from Twin Bridges

Leave behind the noise and stress of everyday life and enjoy a true Montana escape. This clean and spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on 4.2 private acres, surrounded by working ranchland, mountain views, and open skies. Whether you're here to fish, hike, attend a nearby wedding, or simply unplug, you'll find peace and quiet in every direction.
Remodeled approximately 12 years ago, the home offers a comfortable and unpretentious setting—ideal for travelers who value space, privacy, and the beauty of nature over polished finishes.


Inside the Home

Four bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide comfortable accommodations for families or groups.

A washer and dryer is available for guest use—especially convenient for longer stays.

Dog-friendly, with a large fenced yard offering safe outdoor space for pets and children.


Natural Comforts & Cooling

There is no central air conditioning. Guests cool the home the traditional Montana way: by closing windows and curtains during the day, then opening them at night to let in the crisp evening air using fans. Two portable A/C units are available.

Furnishings are simple and practical, creating a clean, peaceful place to relax after a day spent outdoors.


The Land & Location

The Parrot Slough runs through the property, attracting deer, moose, birds, and other wildlife—perfect for nature lovers.

Surrounded by large ranches, the property offers exceptional privacy, quiet, and star-filled night skies.

Landscaping is natural and rustic. Expect native grasses, open space, and the occasional bugs—this is authentic Montana, not manicured suburbia.


What’s Nearby

The Jefferson River access point in Silver Star is just 3 miles away—excellent for fishing, floating, or riverside walks.

The Round Barn wedding venue is only 8 miles down the road, making this home a convenient stay for wedding guests.

The nearby Tobacco Root Mountains offer scenic hiking, wildlife, and wide-open views.


Additional Notes

For stays longer than one week, guests are responsible for taking household trash to the nearby transfer station. Instructions will be provided.

Wi-Fi and other basic necessities are available, but the real value here lies in the open space, natural beauty, and quiet setting.


Who This Home Is For

This home is best suited for guests who appreciate nature, simplicity, and space. If you're looking for a peaceful, down-to-earth place to relax and enjoy Montana’s untouched landscape, this property offers exactly that.

Just what we wanted

It's a beautiful property, well maintained and landscaped. The zip line was a hit with the grandkids. It's far enough away from towns for privacy and close enough to see everything in the area.

Perfect Quiet and Peaceful Getaway

I stayed here a whole month! I had my two dogs with me and it was amazing! Gorgeous views and conveniently situated between Bozeman and Butte. Saw antelope, deer, magpie, cows, horses, and lots of beautiful scenery. This was a trip purely for a retreat and I never slept better in the past 5 years. The hosts were amazing! You will love your time here.

It was very peaceful but the house was not clean. Mattresses were poor and some blankets had holes. Pots and pans were old and the non stick pans were very scratched and definitely not non stick. Pantry was full of outdated food and we were there for almost 3 weeks and had a lot of our stuff with nowhere to put it.

Great location

This is the second time we have stayed at this home. The house is in a quiet location, perfect for unplugging.We saw deer, rabbits, coyotes, and there is a porcupine that lives in the back. The house is as described and the host is very quick with responses if you have questions. The back yard is fenced and very kid friendly. I suppose it is considered a remote location, but groceries and other supplies are only 15 minutes away. We look forward to staying here again in the future.

Beautiful outa the way spot.

July 2021. Super nice casa. Clean, well stocked and very private. Couldn’t see the big sky due to the fires and couldn’t fish due to the water temperatures and levels. The fish out the back is not exactly correct. You must traverse a couple hills to get to the water. If you have physical disabilities, it’s almost impossible to get their. The owners are extremely nice and responsive. The casa is well maintained and has very modern amenities. This property is located directly in the middle of nowhere. It’s perfect for a true getaway. If we travel to the big sky again, we would definitely consider this property.. Thnx again.. Kurt and Polly.

quiet place

the location was wonderful, quiet and secluded. the rooms were good, kitchen was very nice and roomy, bedrooms were just perfect. It needs a good cleaning (cobwebs were thick to say the least :), dust as expected on a dirt road and lots of dead flies in the windowsills so it hadn't been touched in several weeks) but I would rent it again without hesitation.

Super Clean

When we first pulled into the driveway I was a little skeptical. The out side grounds and house didn't look like anything great but the inside was very updated and clean. There was everything we needed inside the house. The fire pit outside was a nice surprise. The river was very close and just a small stream and we did not have any luck catching anything. Our young adults liked the zip line in the front yard.

About the host

Hosted by Keri Jaynes

Host profile image
We bought this home in 2012, and from the moment we stepped inside, we knew it was our dream home. Life took us a little further north to Helena for a job opportunity we couldn’t pass up, but we’ve kept this special place because it’s too wonderful to let go.

This home is our little slice of Montana paradise — peaceful, cozy, and surrounded by the natural beauty we love so much. Over the years, we’ve made countless memories here, and now we’re thrilled to share it with guests who can create their own.

A bit about us: Keri grew up in Butte, MT, and Nick in Billings, MT. We have two sons and a daughter, and as a family, we’ve always loved exploring Montana’s mountains, lakes, and trails. We’ve designed this home to be comfortable and welcoming, and we hope you’ll feel right at home the moment you arrive.

Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or just enjoy a peaceful escape, we’re happy to open our doors to you and make your stay unforgettable

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home because of its perfect location — tucked between large ranches along a quiet country road. It’s the kind of place where you can truly slow down, breathe, and enjoy the peace and quiet.

We love the natural beauty here — the slough, the open acreage, and the wildlife that surrounds us. Some of our favorite memories include hunting, fishing, hiking and simply enjoying the serenity of the land.

It’s a little slice of Montana paradise, and we’re excited to share it with guests who want to experience the same sense of relaxation and connection to nature that drew us here.

What makes this property unique

Our home offers the perfect balance of peace and adventure. Nestled on a quiet country road, it’s a place where you can truly relax and unwind, yet it’s close to so many amazing destinations.

We’re just minutes from the historic Round Barn wedding venue outside of Twin Bridges — perfect for wedding guests looking for a comfortable stay. If you love the outdoors, you’ll find fantastic fishing and hunting opportunities right nearby, along with plenty of room to enjoy Montana’s wide-open spaces.

For those who love exploring, we’re within easy day-trip distance of Virginia City, Nevada City, Yellowstone National Park, Lewis & Clark Caverns, and countless hiking trails. Whether you’re here for a quiet getaway, an outdoor adventure, or a central hub for exploring southwest Montana, our property is the perfect home base.
