If I could give more than five stars, I would. This beautiful, off-grid solar cabin in its serene mountain setting is by far the nicest vacation spot my family has ever enjoyed. We found solitude, connection, and a much-needed break from the tensions of city living. No cell coverage (thank goodness!), but enough wifi bandwidth for what little texting we needed to do.
Thanks to our gracious hosts, we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The cabin and grounds are immaculately maintained; the furnishings, kitchenware, and linens are all top quality; and the crisp well water is to die for. We spent a lot of our time out on the deck, enjoying the spectacular view and sounds of the creek, and when it got a bit toasty in the afternoons, the ceiling fans or window A/C made the house quite comfortable. We used the charcoal grill most nights we were there, but there was also a gas grill on the deck and a cozy firepit in the yard that we chose not to fire up since the dry season of the forest was just starting.
My sons and I agree that the best part of our Montana experience, by far, was meeting Mary & Clay. What they have accomplished with off-grid living is truly remarkable and inspiring. We will definitely be back. Cheers!
