We loved it here! The house was beautiful, from the high- end kitchen, to the well thought out details of bedrooms and bathrooms! The house was immaculate, even the garage was sparkling! The owner made the check in process seamless. This very private house had everything you could want for a relaxing getaway! We would love to stay here again! 10/10!

Beautiful new house in a remote place. The owner will personally meet you to check you in and provide the keys. Overall, a very nice place. Be careful of the stove, as the knobs are a bit fragile and very expensive to repair.

This house offered everything we needed for our short stay. It is nestled in the wood and we watched deer walk right past us as we sat on the front porch. So quiet and serene. Close to Big Fork and its great restaurants. We spent an afternoon on Flathead lake which was just down the road. The drive to Kalispell, Whitefish, and Glacier are scenic and easy. The house itself has all you can need. Beds and linens are 5 star-truly. I need to find out where Rob and Jen bought them!! Plenty of room for our group of 5. Downstairs is like a separate connected apartment so allows for lots of private space too. Would use again.
