NEW! Private waterfront access to Flathead Lake w/private boat dock & wood stove - Lakeshore Lodge

Nestled in the trees halfway between Bigfork and Polson, you will love 244 feet of private waterfront access and a private boat dock to use on beautiful Flathead Lake! This home is absolutely stunning with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. The main living area is an open-concept floor plan that's perfect for entertaining with tons of space for guests! The large floor-to-ceiling windows from the main living area have some of the most breathtaking views of Flathead Lake. With access to the back deck you can wake up with the sunrise and enjoy your morning coffee or have a glass of wine and delight in the beautiful sunset. You'll never want to leave this lakefront home!

The kitchen and dining room have all the amenities you're looking for including stainless steel appliances, gorgeous granite countertops, a coffee maker for caffeine lovers, and a fun mini bar next to the gas burning stove in the dining room that overlooks the water. Next to the dining room, you have the living room with comfy leather couches that have more beautiful views of the lake. You'll have a hard time keeping your eyes on the movie with the lake in the background! As you move down the hallway, you will find a half bathroom and a very convenient laundry room with lots of extra storage. Lastly, on this main level you have the master suite that is adjacent to the dining room. The master bedroom features more floor-to-ceiling windows with lake views, a unique king-sized log bed, antique furniture and a flatscreen tv. The ensuite bathroom is fabulous with a seated vanity space, mirrored closet doors, and a custom walk-in shower.

Next to the master bedroom is a stairwell that takes you down to the lower level. To the right there is a second bedroom with a king-sized bed, more ceiling height windows, hickory furniture and an ensuite bathroom. This ensuite bathroom has a beautiful, vintage clawfoot tub. Have a long soak in the tub after a full day at the lake. As you move back out toward the stairs, you will find a door the leads you down to the lake straight ahead and sitting area off to your left. The sitting area has comfy chairs and another gas burning stove, perfect for those summer nights. Next to the sitting area, you will find a kitchenette area complete with a wine fridge, microwave, sink, coffee maker, and dishwasher! This space is perfect for entertaining on the lower deck.

Last, but not least, you have the final two bedrooms and the final bathroom. The third bedroom has a king-sized bed and more beautiful flathead lake views while the fourth bedroom was made for kids! It has two XL twin sized beds as well as a set of twin-sized bunk beds! The kids or kids-at-heart will love this bedroom. The final bathroom is fully equipped with a single vanity, toilet, and a combo tub/shower.

In the winter, the Flathead Valley is famous for its world-class skiing and wide range of winter activities. There are two ski resorts in the area including the local favorite Whitefish Mountain Resort and the family-friendly Blacktail Mountain Ski Area. Whitefish Mountain Resort was recently ranked #3 in the West by Ski Magazine readers! Visitors to the area can also enjoy ice fishing on Flathead Lake, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing in Glacier National Park, and snowmobiling with one of the local outfitters.

In the summer, enjoy all the water sports imaginable at Flathead Lake, the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi in the lower 48! Glacier National Park is also close by with the breathtaking Going-To-The-Sun Road, Lake McDonald, and 70+day hikes! Make sure you take time to experience downtown Bigfork boasting shops, galleries, restaurants and the Bigfork Summer Playhouse. There are activities for everyone from hiking the Swan River Nature Trail, exploring the Jewel Basin Wilderness Area, fishing the many lakes & rivers or golfing at any of the exceptional courses, including Eagle Bend Golf Course.

True Montana home
This property is beautiful and the home is very warm and inviting. While our visit was in early October, I can imagine a summer week at this lakefront home. The views were awesome and many rooms accessed the large deck. The beds gave an authentic Montana feel. There was plenty of space for everyone and we appreciated having the grill for cooking out. We drove around the lake and found some good restaurants as well. I highly recommend kayaking out to Wild Horse Island. Communication between us and the host could've been better. We wanted to inform them of lights that were not working but no one replied or came by to check it out.

Beautiful Home on Flathead Lake!
We loved the beauty and tranquility of this home right on the lake. Amazing views and sunsets, and ready access to the water. We enjoyed playing family games on one of the many decks, and swimming and paddleboarding right from the house. The home is well-appointed and spacious, but we encountered quite a bit of deferred maintenance (clothes washer not working properly, many lightbulbs out throughout the house, some loose flagstones on the back steps, missing shades in the master bedroom, a ripped screen door on the lower floor.) While we brought most of this to the attention of the property manager and they did change the lightbulbs, we expected more polish and care taken for a house in this price range. Another disappointment was that the property managers did not willingly provide the proper supplies for our 9 night stay! We had to plead for extra toilet paper, dishwashing soap and laundry soap, and ask for more bath towels as they provided very few. This is not the kind of hospitality one expects for a luxury home rental.
