Lee was amazing and very communicative with us as guests. The property was great and easy to find. The guest house was very cleanly and had all the amenities we could ask for! It was a great place for us to decompress after a week of long hikes!

Nice place to stay in Big Fork

Entire upstairs suite over garage is yours. Great feel on a very large property. About a quarter mile off the road and nice and private. Well worth a stay when you're near Flathead Lake. A couple of miles from Big Fork's small and quaint downtown which is on the lake.

The location is awesome! There could be some improvements made to the property to make it a bit more enjoyable for a longer stay. Fixing a few things like the door, window and tub would go a long way. Also consider A/C or window fans as it was quite warm for sleeping even with all the windows open. A few additional amenities like kitchen towels would be helpful as well as a larger trash can again for longer stays.

Peaceful Place

This is a very sweet property with thoughtful details to make your stay welcoming. We were fortunate enough to visit the metal workshop and see current projects and to get a quick peek in the glass gallery which were both really interesting. We are thankful to find this stay and would definitely return. Thank you Lee for having us!
