FLATHEAD 'On The Lake' Custom Log Cabin...Enjoy Year 'Round!!

A place to call home while enjoying Montana's wonderful outdoors, this cozy log cabin is in its natural wooded habitat yet close to city amenities. Walk out to your own private boat dock right on Flathead Lake.... Bring your water toys! Great views of Big Mountain ski area to Glacier Park to Bigfork & the Missions Mountains. Central location on Flathead Lake's west shore south of Lakeside, this one bedroom, cozy log cabin has a King bed, kitchen, shower, woodstove & a futon couch to sleep 4 comfortably. No boat of your own? We also have a canoe, 2 kayaks and 2 paddleboards available for your use!!! Owners live in the house on the adjacent lot with separate boat dock.

If you are looking for a peaceful get-a-way or an 'on the water' sporting water vacation.....This Flathead Lake location has it! With private boat dock, there is plenty of room for boats or jetskis! Flathead Lake is like a small ocean, lots of wide open space for everyone! If the mountains are for you - Blacktail ski area is minutes away or pack your lunch & hiking boots to test the trails of Big Mountain, Glacier Park, Jewel Basin or Swan River Trail. In Winter, both Blacktail and Big Mountain offer great snow skiing! Just two miles to the town of Lakeside, stop to enjoy fine dining, fun shops, the local bars, boat cruises from the bay. Cherry season is the end of July, first part of August - orchards are within walking distance!

Head north to Glacier National Park, 40 miles, (hiking, scenery, wildlife, lakes), with a stop at the water slides along the way for the young-at-heart! For the culturally inclined, BigFork has the Summer Playhouse with different live shows nightly, only 20 minutes by car. Fine dining, quaint shops, museums & the marina are also attractions. Check out the Flathead Valley for golfing, fishing, hunting, water recreation,boating, tubing, marinas, horseback riding, hiking, Montana wilderness, downhill skiing, cross country skiing, snow shoeing, fine dining - most out your back door or a short drive away!

Great location. Not set up well.

The floor was covered in gray hair. The kitchen was poorly stocked. The sliding screen door was full of holes and was never on its track and therefore was useless to block bugs from entering. There were not enough towels, especially considering there is no laundry on site. The owners charged us for pre-existing damage to a kitchen cupboard door.

Log Cabin Adventures

Had an amazing time at Flathead Lake in Lakeside! It was our first time in Montana and we stayed at the cabin for the 2nd half of the trip. We had some awesome lazy days on the lake, it was gorgeous and the hosts were great! Our son loved playing on the lake and on the raft. We will definitely stay again!

Perfect Retreat

The cabin was everything we expected and more. Even though there are other residences close by you would never know it. The quiet was exquisite and the view perfect. The cabin itself was very clean and had plenty of amenities. We brought some food with and didn't want to leave the rest of the time. I couldn't ask for more.

Beautiful cabin in MT

The cabin exceeded our expectations! Melanie was very responsive while booking and throughout the trip. We even had snow while we were there and she not only gave us the heads up, but helped negotiate easier parking. We’ve already talked of heading back to experience the lake in the summer. Highly recommend!

Unforgettable

Melanie and Joe's little cabin by the lake was everything we were looking for. The feeling of seclusion but close to everything. Woke up with deer in the front of the cabin almost every morning. Best time that we will remember forever!! My boyfriend proposed during our stay and Melanie left us a bottle of champagne on the front porch for us to celebrate...SO SWEET!! We will be back again and again!

Great lakeside stay

We had a wonderful time on the lake. The cabin was cute and sufficient for me and my wife, with everything needed for a pleasant stay. The highlight was the private dock and water toys (kayaks, SUPs and a canoe.) Great views from the dock, and close to town for whatever you need. Matador, the owners' super friendly German Shepherd, regularly came by to make sure we were having a good time!

Lakeside cabin with multiple karens

Absolutely beautiful property with a nice dock. Visited with my family for 5 nights this summer. Cabin is just slightly sparse on a few things like a can opener and some essentials for cooking like oil and sugar, but overall the cabin was satisfactory for us. The only problem with this cabin is that bit is sandwiched really closely between 3 houses and all of the homeowners are extemely uptight. At least once per day one or more neighbors would saunter over to tell us something we were doing wrong. Like the dog barked too early in the morning, resulting in a “complaint,” another neighbor told us we were not allowed to have a fire in the fire pit (the owner did not me ruin any restrictions). Even if my dog was silent and just in sight of the property line, causing their dog to bark, they would freak out. Sadly all of the uptight neighbors kind of ruins the lake experience. Also the two paddle boards they have for use both leak pretty badly and the owner’s son’s girlfriend came over and stole the slightly better one for the full first day of our stay anyway. So don’t count on using any of the watercraft that they advertise.

Fantastic cabin getaway

Great Montana cabin on the lake. Beautiful property, the pictures don’t really do it justice. Very peaceful & quiet. We enjoyed the sunny dock, kayaks and paddle boards. Spent time with family and enjoyed all the area has to offer. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful, relaxing, lakefront property

We've had a wonderful time at this beautiful lakefront property. The cabin is comfy, quaint, quiet, and peaceful.. It has rustic charm along with modern touches and comforts. The views of lake are incredible from anyplace on the property. Sitting on our private dock sipping a glass of wine in the evening was especially enjoyable. Melanie is a wonderful host and she did everything to make us feel welcome and comfortable. We would definitely stay again and would recommend this property.

Lakeside oasis

Wonderful lakeside cabin. We took advantage of the paddle board and kayak. Matador the dog was a major highlight. Cabin was spotless and as advertised. WiFi didn’t work but we were prepared and owner was responsive. We appreciated the huckleberry bark and honey gifts and the coffee that others left. Refrigerator was immaculate! I have never seen a cleaner ‘fridge. Take advantage of the owners’ directions, gps would not have been enough for us. We would definitely rent this cabin again.

Fantastic! Definitely God's Country.

We loved Montana. We spent most of our time at Glacier National Park, which was an hour away. The cabin was very clean and the views from the dock were spectacular. We went kayaking one day. Seen a bunch of deer on the road into the cabin. And ospreys and eagles.We did the sunset cruise on the lake which was very nice. My only recommendation would be to clear some of the smaller trees and vegetation because the views from the house are limited. But other than that it was perfect. Lake water was crystal clear.

Fun location for lake getaway

We had a nice four night stay on Flathead Lake. Our teenagers really enjoyed the lake access, kayaks, and paddleboard. We had our own little dock and beach to use, with a great view of the lake & mountains. It was also nice to sit on the cabin's covered deck and view the lake. The owner was kind to leave a gift basket, and we were happy to find they had provided basics, such as soaps, toilet paper, & paper towels, as well as lake towels. The master bed was very comfy. Our teenagers were a bit snug on the sofa bed, but that was expected. We were happy that our dog could stay in the cabin with us. Suggestions include a second bedside table in the bedroom and window coverings in the front room for guests sleeping on the sofa bed. The only real downside to the property is lack of dishwasher and washing machine, but we knew of that in advance, and it was manageable for a few days. We really enjoyed our trip and would be happy to stay there again!

Disappointing!

Super disappointed with the cabin. Not paddleboard(s) as there is only 1, all of the kayaks and everything super dirty. Got charged for the blind that was already broke when we got there, trees growing in blocking the view. No signage to get to location as there’s a ton of other houses around. And so many other things! Would not suggest!

About the host

Hosted by MELANIE V

We are native Montanans, Joe is a CPA, I am a retired Insurance Agency owner. We have invested in farms & ranches for the past 20+ years. Between us we have 8 children, ages 17 to 37....

Why they chose this property

Both Montanan natives, we moved from the eastern side of the state to the Valley many years ago. Living in Whitefish & Rollins before settling in Lakeside, we decided Flathead Lake is our favorite place to be summer or winter. The views are amazing in any season, the lake an ever-changing tapestry with wind, snow & ice, sunshine & blue skies, fog, rain, sunrises & sunsets. We are on the lake for summer fun but also close to ski areas in the winter....

What makes this property unique

WOW! Montana at its finest! The Flathead Lake is amazing area .... whatever the season, the views change daily! Central location for you to base from while you enjoy your summer/fall/winter vacation plans.
