Downing Mountain Lodge

Great news. Love sharing the lodge with appreciative guests.

Thanks for the kind review. Come back and stay anytime.

Thanks for sharing your experience from the lodge. Im glad it worked out well for your whole group. I look forward to hosting your group again.

I do hope you can make it back for ski season!

Thank you for your visit and your kind review of our mountain lodge. It was great to meet you and your family and I look forward to your return. I'm so glad you enjoyed the lodge so well and that you made some great hikes in the Bitterroots.

Thanks for leaving your review. I am glad that you had an overall good experience on your women's retreat at the lodge. You mention that it is more rustic than advertised and I just wanted to note that in the second paragraph of the property description I have this written: "Downing Mountain lodge is not for everyone though. With a 3 mile, dirt, mountain road in good condition required to access the property and set in a wild environment, this is a semi wilderness experience. Inside the lodge, while comfortable and on one level with an additional sleeping loft, there are no bathrooms connected to bedrooms and only one indoor shower and two toilets. The kitchen is a well supplied commercial kitchen, but well used and by no means fancy or boutique. Furthermore the lodge is heated primarily by wood and guests will have the opportunity to split their own wood and start their own fires in the woodstove and fireplace" Please let me know if there are other ways in which I can help future guests with understanding the lodge and managing guests expectations. Have a great summer and come back soon.

Thanks for the positive review. I am glad you enjoyed your stay. Cone back when you can.

Thanks for the thoughtful and honest review.

Thanks for such an authentic review!

Thanks for the kind review of your memories of staying at the lodge. Come back when you can!

Thanks for the kindest of reviews. You're welcome at the Downing Mountain lodge anytime.

Thanks for your kind review. I’ll look forward to your return this winter for backcountry skiing or summer hiking and fishing. The lodge has quite the unique history in Western Montana, with many different aspects of the land ownership and building of the lodge coming together to make for unique lodge location, architecture and access to views and superb forest service skiing.

Thanks for the kind and thoughtful review, Bill. I’m glad you enjoyed the lodge, view, and wildlife. There is a second shower outside on the way to the back deck. Only for the rustic minded and uninhibited. Come back again for fishing another time when the flood waters have subsided.

It was great to host another group of cross country motorcyclists. I look forward to your return for backcountry ski season.

Thanks for the kind and thoughtful review. It is your weekend was so perfect and the weather so nice.

Thanks for your kind review and interest already in booking for next year's Thanksgiving.
