Nice Place
I was in town for a separate function so I used this venue as basically a place to sleep. Loved the quiet and being out of people range. Thanks.

The Perfect Retreat
We stayed in the Sapphire cabin for two nights. Spectacular setting to say the least! Mountain views all the way around, wild grass, and a tree lined creek out front. Not once did the tv get turned on because there was so much too see from the rockers on the covered front porch-white tailed and mule deer, sharp tailed grouse, eagles, & chipmunks. The cabin was clean and comfortable and well equipped. Another great feature is that though it felt like we were in the wilds of the Sapphire Mountains, we were only a few miles from Darby. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Rye Creek is a very private, quiet property. You will feel as if you are staying in a log cabin in the middle of the wilderness though we are only a mile off of a paved road. Sapphire Cabin at Rye Creek are exceptionally well appointed. You are not roughing it here....

In a word, Wildlife. We have resident herds of elk and deer that call Rye Creek home. All of the activities that you would expect to find in Montana are available. White water rafting, fishing, hiking, ATV rides, Snowmobile rides, etc.
