Great Montana Getaway
This quiet location provided a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Picturesque pastures, hills and mountains formed an idyllic setting. The loft apartment was thoughtfully appointed with all that we needed for a few days of comfort and rest. Our hosts were responsive to our questions and made us feel incredibly welcome at their property. Great getaway.

Gem in the Rockies
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was so beautiful and we enjoyed watching the horses and deer from our windows. Very peaceful property located in a nice area. The accommodations were well maintained, well equipped, cute Montana Decor throughout. We will stay here again on our next fly fishing trip to the Bitterroot.

Perfect place in Conner, MT
This was a great place for a couple. You could easily sleep up to six or seven but it's all one room. Gas grill outside with a picnic table right by the fields. I was a little concerned that there did not to be a CO monitor, especially since the heater and stove are gas

It was the amazing time. The jacuzzi was fabulous after a long day of skiing. We had a wonderful time there, with easy access to the mountain and the dogs loved being able to play in the snow. This is a great place to bring the family and enjoy the snowy weather.

Great Stay!
We stayed here for a few nights with our pup. We all had a really great time and the owners/host team were really easy to ask questions to and get ahold of. It is a private loft but the driveway/backyard/hot tub were shared with another rental unit and the host house. This wasn't an issue for us I just didn't realize that from the listing. Overall, it was a great experience!

Relaxation plus
Walking up steps to the guest house which was above the garadge “I was so happy to see the place. It was fabulous. So nicely decorated. I could live there easily. Each window you looked out had a great view, the mountains, the fields with the horses, cows. There was everything there that you might need, coffee, spices, aluminum foil shampoo, conditioner, body soap. The bed was so comfortable. You will not be disappointed when you make a reservation. Happy vacationing!

Great place to stay
It was a beautiful place to stay and it was not far from Darby. It was very clean and the people that work there are very nice. Loved the complementary eggs and bacon! The beds were super comfy and I would definitely stay again! Owner was very responsive to questions. I couldn’t have asked for better accommodations while attending my sister’s wedding.
