Three cameras are outside for your safety and ours. one at each side of the home where stairs exist and the doorbell at the front door.
Having a vehicle at your disposal is best to take advantage of all that the Mission, Flathead valleys & western Montana have to offer. It is recommended that our winter guests have a 4WD vehicle to provide the freedom we cherish here in Montana! Wildlife abound in our area including black bears, mountain lions, deer, elk, foxes, raccoons, coyotes & an occasional moose. It is a good idea to familiarize yourself with the basics if you are lucky enough to spot one of these animals in real life! Carrying bear spray (available at many local stores) & becoming familiar with its use, is strongly advised while hiking. Please be sure all trash is confined to our bear-proof waste containers, and bring indoors any food items from your vehicle overnight. Take a moment to check out websites to learn more from MT Fish Wildlife & Parks & Glacier MT Wildlife Watching.

Our stay here was awesome! They really have thought of everything in this cabin, above and beyond what you need. The views are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your home and putting so much time and thought to what your guests may need! Hope to visit again sometime!
From the moment we stepped inside of this rental property, it felt like home. The owners have thought of absolutely everything to provide all of the amenities and more. I can honestly say this is the cleanest and most organized VRBO we have ever stayed in to date. The views are simply breathtaking and the home provides so much comfortable living space. It is a 15-20 minute drive to Polson for groceries and a couple of restaurants. 40 minutes to Kalispell and we also took a 1hr 20min daytrip to Missoula for dinner where there are a couple of breweries as well. South of Polson, you can also visit the CSKT Bison Range which we did during our last visit to Missoula. There is a workspace available in the living room for anyone looking to get some work done while on vacation and the kitchen is VERY well equipped. We hope to return one day!
