This was our first time to visit Bozeman, Montana and stay at this amazing, newly renovated Cottonwood Cabin.
Arrival into Bozeman International Airport was a breeze as was car pick up and the easy 30 min drive to our idilic cabin in the woods.
The excitement of the last two miles drive through the picturesque scenery was only surpassed as we entered through the property gate and viewed our cabin for the first time.
Pretty as a picture, with porches, meadows beyond and the bridge over the babbling stream as we approached, all added to the experience and excitement.
The insides of the cabin did not disappoint. Every detail had been executed with taste, quality and functionality. Everywhere we turned and looked and explored in the cabin we small treasures and objects of interest and fun.
The master bedroom was roomy and comfortable and with beautiful rustic touches in the bathroom to the modern shower area. Opening the windows at night allowed nature to fill the room, with fresh cool air and an amazing bird song chorus in the morning.
The cooks kitchen is without doubt the focus of the cabin. Fully equipped for almost every potential meal occasion. Ample seating at the rustic kitchen table, cozy warm flames from the log/gas burner in the mornings to the wine and cheese conversations on the surroundIng front patio just outside, while reclining lazily on the porch swing watching the sunset over the meadow.
We spent many days on the rear patio having breakfast and lunch, used the Webber gas grill for some fresh fish suppers and then relaxed around the fire pit for some nights to enjoy the tranquility and silence while making S’mores and watching for the odd dear roaming through the meadow.
A secret find was the comfortable wooden swing chair and picnic table just a short walk from the cabin. Situated on the edge off the never ending rambling stream you could enjoy a glass of wine as you relax in this isolated spot in nature.
Our other activities including fly fishing, for the time, I caught several trout and was coached by some excellent local guides. Amazing trail walks, a day visit to the magnificent YellowStone National park and just enjoying the local fair in the quaint down town of Bozeman.
Ann and I will be back soonest and will extend our stay longer than 5 days we just experienced There is so much to see and do and unwind in to this perfect escape from reality.
