About this property

Prime Lakefront Home Beautiful Views, Fire pit and Great Dock!

This custom home features 3 Bedrooms plus a sleeping loft, 2 baths and a rec room with plenty of parking. You will enjoy your time on beautiful Flathead Lake with your family in this 2600 square foot home located on 100 feet of Flathead Lake frontage between Big Arm and Elmo.

On the main floor, there is an open floor plan with a kitchen, dining, fireplace and living room with large floor to ceiling glass windows overlooking Flathead Lake. The dining room has a table that seats 6 and there is a bar that seats 3 people. Large sliding doors take you outside to the deck where you will be able to BBQ, relax and enjoy the view and beautiful summer weather. The master bedroom, one bathroom and large laundry room complete the main floor. Up a staircase in your loft, you will find it nicely appointed with two sleeper chairs that make into twin beds plus a fold out couch. Downstairs there is another family room with seating, a fireplace, flat screen TV, DVD player and room for little ones to play, and two bedrooms and a bath complete the lower level. There are sliding glass doors that walk out onto a second deck on the lower level.

The master bedroom contains a king bed and joins the bathroom on the main floor. The two bedrooms in the lower level are queen bedrooms, the loft includes a queen sleeper sofa, and two chairs that each make into twin beds.

Your family can play on the beach down at the water’s edge, make yummy S'mores in the fire pit located down by the water, enjoy sunbathing on the floating dock, and experience water activities on a paddleboat, kayaks and stand up paddleboards, which are included for your convenience. As long as the water is calm, you can tie up your boat to the floating dock, but if there are any waves, we ask you to tie your boat to the buoy out in the water.

The kitchen is fully appointed with a BBQ grill on the deck, beach towels, fresh towels and linens complement your stay.

We are situated on a lovely lane that connects to Big Arm State park, which you can walk down each morning before you start your day of fun water and sun activities. Polson is a short 15 mile drive from our house, where you can find shopping, a movie theater and many activities throughout the summer. Big Fork is 39 miles away where you can enjoy a play at the renowned Big Fork Summer Playhouse and many fine restaurants. Kalispell International airport is approximately 46 miles away and the train station in Whitefish is 53 miles away. Glacier Park is only a 72 mile drive, which can easily be made into a day trip during your stay if you choose to visit one the prettiest national parks in the United States.

Lake Vacation
We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful house on the lake. We love the gift basket provided for us as well. The home has all of the amenities needed and some additional items for family activities. My kids enjoyed the availability of the paddleboat, kayaks, and fishing poles. Homeless located in a beautiful spot on the lake and we had breathtaking views every morning in the evening. Thank you, Carl and Lanni for a wonderful vacation.

Quiet and Relaxing
This property is a beautiful location to relax and enjoy wonderful views and some lake time. Close enough for a day trip to Glacier National Park. Morning walks were nice as were the Bald Eagles, Osprey, bear, and deer that visited! The house is clean and well-stocked with water toys and kitchen items. Wonderful week with our adult children.

Beautiful spot on the lake
The house was nice and big for 6 adults. It was the most well stocked kitchen and bathrooms with supplies. We made use of the kayaks and paddle boards every day. The pictures don't do the lake justice.

Fantastic Family Vacation!
The private boat dock was fantastic and provided many hours of fun paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing and floating for the adults and the kids. The home was so well equipped with everything we would ever want or need! Beds were comfortable for our family of 5 adults and 4 kids. Kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed eating in the kitchen as well as on the outside deck with beautiful views! Grocery stores and restaurants are in nearby Polson about 15 minutes from the house. We used Big Arm Boat Rentals, just a few minutes away, for a pontoon ride one morning.Lanni, the host, was so helpful and super accommodating!

Amazing getaway for everyone!
A great family vacation! Lanni and Curt were awesome! They were quick to respond to any questions we had. They made our stay very convenient. The cabin has a great layout for family gathering, while still having place for alone time. We had stunning views! The property serves well for adults and small children. We got to fish, kayak, paddleboat, hike, cook out, watch fireworks AND celebrate an engagement (to name a few), all from the lakehouse! Everything was wonderful! We are already talking about our next trip back! The only thing I would change is the firepit. It was located on a steep angle, making it somewhat difficult to sit in chairs or make s'mores with our grandson.

Amazing week!
Our week on the lake was fabulous! The house was perfect! It was stocked with everything you could possibly need. We were thrilled with the bonus of being able to use the water toys. The views are absolutely spectacular! We had the perfect balance of fun, adventure and relaxation. Lanni & Curt have gone above and beyond to make sure that you enjoy their piece of paradise just as much as they do. We had a few tiny hiccups along the way, and they were so quick to respond and get everything worked out for us. They are incredibly kind & thoughtful, and made our perfect vacation even better! We would go back in a heartbeat!

Amazing lake home stay
This was our first experience with lake living and we are now hooked!! Clean, comfy, well-stocked and nicely appointed, this home was the perfect base for exploring the lake and GNP. We spent several days out on the lake, making good use of the water toys and fishing gear they graciously provided. The main floor windows allowed for relaxing views of the gorgeous water and surrounding mountains. At night we made use of the games and fire pit. We had an amazing experience as a family here!! Thank you so much, Lanni and Curt, for the opportunity!

Perfection on the Lake
This property was bright and airy with a wonderfully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and linens, and plenty of water and rec materials from kayaks, SUP, and fishing poles to puzzles, board games, and movies! While remote, it was only a short drive from Polson for groceries, Walmart, and dining out. We also enjoyed the comfortable outdoor furniture, dining table, and the gas grill to soak up every minute of the breathtaking views. Owners were responsive and helpful with all our needs. If you're looking for a relaxing stay on picturesque Flathead lake, look no further than this property!

A USC COVID Remote Semesters Dream Come True!
Our first year USC students were denied their first semester on campus due to Covid closures!… and so we looked for a unique location for them to be able to explore in the great outdoors while being connected to Wi-Fi so they could take their remote / online semester classes! How on earth are we to find this?… Good question! And then we found this amazing location and these amazing hosts who opened their rental to our students who had the most incredible experience in Big Arm, Montana! The house is perfectly outfitted for anything that you could possibly need! The hosts are so generous in spirit and think of everything! If you rent this house for your family and/or friends for a unique MT experience, you won’t be disappointed!!!! Enjoy!

Amazing Place on Flathead Lake!!!!
My family and I enjoyed a great stay on Flathead Lake. First off, Lanni and Kurt were great hosts, they made the check in a breeze and were always easy to get a hold of if we needed anything. They set up baby gates before we arrived and made sure there was a high chair and pack n play for my daughter. They made their house in Big Arm feel like home for my family and it was truly appreciated. The house itself is awesome! It had everything you could ever want in a vacation home. An amazing deck where we could look out over the water and watch the bald eagles and boats pass by as we had dinner. There is a BBQ and a traeger smoker which made cooking easy and fun. There were plenty of beach supplies, kayaks, stand up paddleboards, fishing pools, beach chairs, games, etc etc. We stayed for a month and never ran out of soap, shampoo, paper towels, etc, the house was fully stocked. Our family traveled all the way from Vegas and the fact that they had everything we needed made our travels so much easier. The views from inside the house were great as well, you could sit on the couch and relax and still see the lake out the tall front windows. The beds were comfortable with nice linens, the showers were great, and if you felt like watching TV they have Dish as well as the apps to watch netflix, etc. We highly recommend this house if you are looking for a great house on Flathead Lake with friendly hosts and everything you would ever need for you stay, I hope we are able to return next year!!!

Amazing property on Flathead Lake
I fell in love with the Flathead Lake area due in large part to this property. For a family of 5 this was exactly the right space. Our 3 kids enjoyed the lake so much. Lanni, Curt and Nathan were the best hosts. They were available when we needed them and so welcoming. The SUP, paddleboat and kayaks were a great amenity to enjoy the lake. The house was clean and homey with more than enough space for us to spread out. We enjoyed eating on the deck for every meal. I am embarrassed to say we had a couple mishaps as can happen. Lanni and Curt not only were so understanding but replaced the items we broke immediately. I truly felt we were staying at a family property vs a stranger's place. The location was close enough to Polson for us to stock up if we needed. I also loved that it was in a neighborhood that felt remote enough to really enjoy being on the lake. Can't wait to return!

Serendipity. We dreamed of a vacation with our kids and grandkids; we took a chance; we found ourselves in a world of light, sun, wind, clouds and then the stars, that made every moment of every day a treasured memory; and every night, a rest well earned. Lanni, Curt and Nathan made us feel right at home. The house welcomed our group of 9 from 2 to 67 years of age and covered all of our needs. We added family from Missoula including a cousin in a wheelchair for a spectacular day’s visit. And over it all Chief Cliff kept a solemn vigil. If you get a chance to stay here, don’t hesitate. Nick and Michele.

Best vacation and house ever
Lanni and Curt were the most accommodating hosts in our lifetimes of travel. The location was perfect--quiet, right on the lake, easy access to groceries and town--and to Glacier Airport. The view from the deck (and from the living room) was beyond beautiful. The amenities gave us so much fun--kayaks, pedal boats, standup paddleboard, big dock. We loved our welcome basket full of Montana goodies--and as the well stocked pantry. Bedrooms were quiet.

Just Wonderful!
Our family of 8 adults and a 9 month old spent a week in this clean, well organized, clutter-free wonderful house. Furnishings, bedding, appliances, cookware, dishware, cutlery, and recreational gear are all high quality. Our son slept on the fold-out in the loft and it was so comfortable he didn't move to a bedroom when one became available! The owners are fantastic, and even made the extra effort to install child gates on the stairs, and purchase a high chair and infant lifejacket for our visit. We would definitely look to see if this house was available when planning a future trip to Flathead Lake.

Beyond our expectations
Our family vacationed with close friends for our first experience in Montana. This rental exceeded all of our expectations. Every aspect of the house was high quality. The house was stocked so well. No detail was overlooked. We started joking that any item needed was stocked somewhere in the house we just had to find it! The grill, smoker, and deck furniture was exceptional quality and we all highly enjoyed them. The kitchen was stocked with any kitchen item needed, all high end quality. The dock was our biggest surprise. It was much closer than the photos suggested and our kids spent most of their time exploring the outdoors and playing with the watercraft (kayaks, paddle boat, and paddle board). We never even turned on a TV although available. Our youngest son even learned how to kayak for the first time! We all expected a breathtaking lake and beautiful scenery but were all pleasantly surprised that the property also matched the beautiful views. The owners and caretakers were always available and met our every need. Very friendly! We plan to return to Flathead Lake to vacation again and would not consider staying anywhere else besides this house. Thank you for such a wonderful property for our family to take home like long Montana memories.

Everything from the home, process with renting the property, communicating with the owners, location, were perfect! Would highly recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a cozy, clean, water front home that has endless supplies for outdoor activities as well as a place for your boat.

About the host

Hosted by Lanni Jacobson

Host profile image
Curt and I have owned the property next door to this beautiful home since 1991. Our family has cherished our time at Flathead lake over the years and hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because it was next door to our other houses and we felt it would be a great vacation rental. We do also sometimes rent our larger 5 bedroom house right next door through out the summer.
