About this property

The Elk Mountain Lodge - Red Lodge Hillside Home w/ Hot Tub!

The Surroundings

Located on two acres of the gorgeous hillside, you'll have plenty of space for sprawling out and enjoying the fresh mountain air in privacy. Get ready to take in clear night skies full of brilliant constellations from the back-patio hot tub — whether it's a cold winter night or a fresh summer evening.

The Amenities

The Elk Mountain Lodge is fully equipped to be your home-away-from-home. The kitchen is furnished with stainless steel appliances, tile countertops, and of course, all you need for coffee each morning! Enjoy your meals together around the dining room table, or take it to the back patio for an epic barbecue.

After hiking through Yellowstone or skiing down a mountain, decamp to the family room for a movie night. This comfy space includes a flatscreen TV with streaming access and live TV via Youtube TV and WiFi. (A note about WiFi: because our area has only satellite internet, you'll need to be aware of multiple devices. After all, we are in rural Montana!). Or pour some hot cocoa and gather around the Great Room's gas fireplace, looking out the windows at the expansive landscape. It's especially idyllic when snow is falling softly! Montana is where rolling plains meet the Rocky Mountains, and we tried to capture that in our decor, using classic rustic details and Western flourishes to complement the panoramic views from each window.

Bedrooms include a master with a king bed and two queen bedrooms (for a total of three). Sleep two more on the queen sleeper sofa in the den, which has its own door for extra privacy. With two full bathrooms and one half-bath, there is plenty of space for everyone to keep up with daily routines before hitting the slopes or taking a trip into Red Lodge.

The Elk Mountain Lodge is pet friendly! Prior arrangements are required and a nightly pet fee will apply.

Heading Into Town

While The Elk Mountain Lodge feels just the right amount of secluded, you're still only three miles away from town. Red Lodge Mountain is only 4.6 miles out and is home to many outdoor adventures like fishing, whitewater rafting, and horseback riding. While you're here, be sure to check out some fantastic hiking trails, including Silver Run, Lake Fork, Glacier Lake Trailhead, Beartooth All American Road, and more.

If you're visiting during the summer, the golfing is fantastic, with Red Lodge Mountain Golf Course just a short drive away. Red Lodge also has plenty of options for dining, bar-hopping, and quaint coffee shops—it really is the quintessential mountain town. And The Elk Mountain Lodge is the ideal home base for exploring the vast beauty of this special place! We hope to see you soon.

Excellent view

Let’s start with the low notes so we can end on the high… There were definitely things that weren’t ideal. If you have little ones with you, the master is the only bathtub and the baseboard heater in there doesn’t work, luckily there was a space heater in the closet we moved into the bathroom. Also worth noting, ALL of the bedrooms are downstairs and everyone from a toddler to a grandma all sound like a 400lb grown man stomping around, so if you’re a light sleeper, best of luck to you, you’ll need it. We had to buy our own toilet paper because we ran out about 2 hours into our 5 day stay. There was no deadbolt and minimal locks, so I didn’t feel super secure. There were missing screens on the bedroom doors and the tint on the windows upstairs is extremely warped taking away from the view… on note of the view, let’s move to the high notes. The view and location are absolutely amazing! Literally at the base of the mountain and overlooking the rest. There was ample space and furniture as well as use of the garage if needed. They had a spotting scope there for us to use which was great for searching for critters not eh mountain. Overall, compared to other homes we have rented in Red Lodge, I would rate the stay a 6.5/10, the biggest issue honestly was the lack of sleep I got with how noisy people walking above you are.

Thanksgiving

Location is great. Hot tub was amazing. House is cute and comfortable. Not a great kitchen for cooking for a large family. Coffee maker has the wrong carafe and we had to rig it to work. No paper towels or dishwasher soap provided. Not enough silverware for us to all use for a meal, we had to re-use plastic silverware until we could go to the store.

Elk Mountain Lodge Fall Vacation

We had a great time staying here! Great space to spread out, cook meals, and relax in the hot tub! The hot tub was a must every night with the stars and the relaxing nature surrounding the hills! House was perfect for us 5 adults and we would stay again. Spent a day shopping the cute downtown and then returning to the house for game night, dinner, and hot tub! Not entirely too close to Yellowstone National Park but drive was doable- longer drive day. Nice views from the house tho! Would recommend!

Lovely Home

The property was very nice and clean. We had a group of 3 couples and each had our own room. We didn't spend tons of time at the property but the views were incredible. I feel that the listing does make it appear to be quite remote but the home is located on a street with several other homes. We didn't encounter any disturbances from the neighbors though and there was a small creek/river out back which provided wonderful ambiance. It does have a grill and large hot tub which was nice. Host was nice and informative, check-in process was easy. There is a lot to do in Red Lodge and we were able to bike from the property into town so everything is quite close by. Overall good experience and wouldn't hesitate to stay again!

Electric

We had an easy check and everything was great until my husband got electrocuted when going to bed. We reached out to the company and didn’t hear anything for 4 days and then nothing for another 3 days. We were given the run around and finally got a call from the owner who was amazing. He was upset with how the manager was doing things and seemed sincerely concerned. Other than that issue everything was wonderful with our stay. The house was great and the town and surroundings were breath taking.

Second stay at this property and one again delivered. Great location to get up to RLM, hot tub is one of the best we’ve had at a property, great views and the infinity table was a great addition for the kids to play on.

Thanksgiving weekend in the mountains

Everything was as described. The space worked great for our family gathering. Rooms and beds were cozy and spacious. The hot tub was amazing. Beautiful view from the living room/ dining room space. Great night sky views from the patio and hot tub. Had a new table top game system that was super fun for the whole family. The house was just outside of Red Lodge city limits, so it was very convenient to go into town for shopping and dining options. Jake and Vicki were great hosts. We had everything we could have possibly needed for our stay including extra blankets, pillows and towels.

Beautiful views

The views were beautiful. My husband and I loved looking at the mountains with the gas stove on. The house was very conveniently located, making it easy for us to run in for dinner or coffee. But we felt like we were away from everyone being on the edge of town. Jake was excellent at communicating.

About the host

Hosted by Jacob Lewis

We love visiting Red Lodge to ski each year and decided that we wanted to visit more frequently so we purchased The Elk Mountain Lodge in 2020. It's been such a fun place for us to spend time together and enjoy the spectacular views and outdoor space that Montana has to offer.

Why they chose this property

The mountain views at The Elk Mountain Lodge were amazing and we immediately felt at home. We want to be able to share that same feeling of waking each morning to the sunrise view of the Beartooth Mountains with our guests.
