About this property

Adventure & Relaxation! Family Retreat w/ Hot Tub, Creek & Pond

Welcome to Finley Creek House

Experience the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and natural beauty at Finley Creek House. Nestled in the woods, our property offers an ideal retreat for families, friends, and pet lovers alike. Here, you’ll enjoy modern amenities, ample space, and a variety of outdoor activities, all within a peaceful and private setting.
Property Highlights:

• Saltwater Hot Tub: Relax and unwind in our spacious 7-person saltwater hot tub, available 24 hours a day for your convenience.
• Double Kitchens & Dining Areas: Two fully equipped kitchens, each with refrigerators/freezers, dishwashers, microwaves, and washer/dryers—perfect for large groups.
• Comfortable Living Spaces: Two separate living room areas, each furnished with plush seating and smart TVs, provide plenty of room for relaxation and entertainment.
• Family-Friendly Amenities: A play set for children, a fully fenced backyard, and covered seating areas make this a great destination for families.
• Outdoor Adventure: Enjoy a serene pond at the back of the house, complete with a canoe and life jackets for water activities. A large rock in the pond offers a fun spot for swimming and jumping.
• Parking: Our expansive driveway offers ample parking space, including accommodations for large campers and trailers.
• Grilling & Outdoor Dining: A new Blackstone griddle with propane and grilling accessories is available for your use, perfect for preparing outdoor meals on the back deck.
• For the Little Ones: We provide toys, indoor and outdoor games, as well as pack-n-plays, sound machines, and childproofing items to ensure a comfortable stay for families with young children.
• Pet-Friendly: Our fully fenced yard provides a safe and spacious area for your dogs to run and play. We also offer dog toys and beds to make your furry friends feel at home.

Wildlife & Natural Beauty: Finley Creek House is surrounded by nature, where you may encounter local wildlife, including squirrels, raccoons, deer, and even bears. While these animals are a delightful part of the environment, please remember to observe them from a safe distance and avoid feeding them.

Important Notes:
• Although we take measures to prevent pests, the occasional bug or spider may find its way indoors. If you encounter one, don’t hesitate to reach out, and we’ll relocate it outside for you. Keeping doors closed will help maintain a bug-free experience and keep the air-conditioned air in.
• The entire house, hot tub, and yard are yours to enjoy during your stay. While the pond is shared with neighboring properties, it is rarely used by others, allowing you to enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

About Us: During the summer and fall, my family and I reside in a camper located near the front corner of the property, close to the highway. We respect your privacy and strive to remain out of sight, ensuring your stay is as peaceful and independent as possible. We’re always available nearby for any assistance you may need, but the house and all its amenities are entirely yours for the duration of your visit.

Perfect Place for Friends or Family

This was perfect for our group of 6 guys. We used this as home and base for fly fishing some of the best rivers and creeks in that section of Montana. Would highly suggest this place, very well stocked, clean and very responsive hosts.

AMAZING stay

The best VRBO experience we have had! Kerstin (the owner) was exceptionally accommodating and had great hospitality! The hostess with the mostest! She had games for every age group, and provided everything you could possibly need to make the stay feel like home. We loved every second of our stay. We can’t wait to go back! We have NOTHING negative to say.

Awesome stay

We loved the outdoor patio/deck for our family to enjoy. Plenty of stocked toys and activities for outdoors for all ages. Lots of room to spread out! The stream sound were peaceful. Well stocked kitchen and supplies! The baby accessories of pack and play and high chair was so appreciated. Beds were comfortable. Loves the hot tub! The host was excellent- quick to respond and proactive with any needs we had.

About the host

Hosted by Kerstin McLean

Host profile image
I'm a Montana native with a deep love of sunshine, hiking with my dogs, and family movie nights. I love being able to offer my guests the best experience Montana can offer! My passion as a host is making sure that every item provided in this home is sparklingly clean & new (especially the mattresses and bedding) so that you always feel like you're the first person to ever set foot here. I also love to give recommendations for excellent activities in the area that you can enjoy, send me a message and I'll help you plan the perfect day trip!

Why they chose this property

I enjoy the scenery, the lovely sound of the creek, and the convenient location of this house. Located 20 minutes north of Missoula, it's the perfect place to hide away for a long stay, or just stop by for a few nights as you travel onward.

What makes this property unique

This house used to be a bed & breakfast, and it's easy to see how much love and purpose was put into designing this home. It's the perfect space for large groups and families, as there are two kitchens, dining areas, washer/dryers, and living rooms!
