About this property

Gorgeous Unique log home at Canyon Ferry Lake - Pet Friendly!

Welcome to our custom log home nestled just across the street from the serene and breathtaking Canyon Ferry Lake. This unique and comfortable home offers everything you need for a fun and relaxing holiday.

The huge, well-furnished front deck offers one of the best views on the lake, providing the perfect backdrop for relaxation and rejuvenation. With space to sleep 8 guests, this cozy cabin-style home was our personal residence for 10 years and has been lovingly furnished to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Escape to this stunning log home near Canyon Ferry Lake, with 2 bedrooms, a loft with 3 additional beds, and 2.5 baths. Enjoy the beautiful kitchen, fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Step outside to the huge front deck, complete with chairs, barstools, tables, and a BBQ grill for outdoor dining. Take in one of the best views of the lake while relaxing on the deck. We have 2 wood burning stoves and central heat. We have air conditioning in the master bedroom and the dining room on the first level. New in 2025 we have air conditioning upstairs too!

In addition to the large front deck, there are also two smaller decks for more outdoor space.

This home was the set for the Lifetime holiday movie, "Mistletoe in Montana" in 2021. Indulge in the lovely screened-in patio on the front of the house, complete with a dining table and chairs. Come experience the ultimate vacation at this picturesque log home.

Whether you're looking for a gathering place for family and friends or a quiet space to unwind and disconnect, this home has it all. Book your stay now and experience the best of Montana's natural beauty and hospitality in our charming log home.

There is a connecting rope bridge from this deck to the deck of "Historic Log Cabin-Hidden Gem " (3 bedrooms) VRBO #423121, while still maintaining privacy for both homes. Also on the same property is "Studio Cabin Canyon Ferry Lake" (1 bed) - VRBO #483720. If you want to rent all 3 cabins, they can sleep 16 people and would be great for a large family get-together. All cabins are close enough to be convenient but far enough apart for your own privacy.
