About this property

282: Tiny house, heart of Missoula

A few years ago, we built a tiny house in Missoula, Montana. We call it 282 because the space is 282 square feet of bright, clean, open space. Our family of four lived in 282 for two years and we found tiny living quite comfortable. We have since moved into the main residence on the property and want to share our tiny living experience with others who are visiting our lovely mountain town. Recently updated, 282 offers one queen-sized bed. The space can accomodate two people. 282 is a studio with a full kitchen (stove, fridge, sink, etc.) and one bathroom with a sink, toilet and shower. It is completely stocked with dishes, pots, pans, a coffee maker and towels. It has a kitchen table and french doors that open onto a small patio. The house is separated from the main residence by a privacy fence and has its own entrance.

282 is a ten-minute walk to downtown Missoula, a ten-minute bike ride (20-minute walk) to the University of Montana and is nestled in Missoula's eclectic Northside neighborhood. Full of artists, writers and filmmakers, the Northside has a brewery, an art's center and, in summer, an outdoor cinema. It's a short bike ride to Greenough Park, the Rattlesnake trailhead and the Clark Fork River.

We have public transportation a few blocks away and our close-in location allows you to walk downtown.

We live on the same block and are happy to help answer any questions about swimming holes, restaurants serving local food or where to find the best latte in town.

Our stay

It was just what it looked like. The only think that would’ve been mice as we stayed for 4 nights, it would’ve been really nice to have more than two towels for two people. They said there was an extra sleeper but when we pulled it out it was old and dirty with a hole, my teenage daughter had to share the queen bed with me. Otherwise it was convenient and clean and the price was right

Great Place to Stay

This little home is cute, clean and convenient. Although it is a ADU behind the main home we felt we had all the privacy we needed. The neighborhood was quiet and pet friendly which was greatly appreciated. We were comfortable in the house even in the heat of summer and were thankful for the air conditioning. We would not hesitate to stay here again when visiting Missoula.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Savage

Host profile image
My husband and I moved to Missoula 22 years ago for a one-year job in a van packed with books. We never left. We've lived on a farm surrounded by fallen down fences where we had our two daughters. We've lived in the heart of Missoula in a tiny house with our daughters, two dogs and a wayward bunny. After two amazing years of living tiny, we've moved out of our 282 square-foot house and want to share it. We love our town, our community and our home. We hope you will too.
