Comfy Country Cabin
It was great to spend some time with friends at Bob’s cabin. The trails are beautiful, the property is well kept, and the cabin is cute and well equipped! Lawn games, fire pit, perfectly clean,comfortable beds, etc. It’s a great place, and Bob is a terrific host.

Awesome place to get away
Beautiful property and beautiful home. Everything inside was very nice-furniture, appliances, kitchen utensils, dishware, bedding and towels. I really appreciated the hiking guide with the map-nice touch. And we loved the fire pit as well. I thought it was odd that Jehovah’s Witnesses showed up on the doorstep our first morning there since we were a few miles outside of Effie, and even further away from where I saw their church in Big Fork. Other than that weird encounter, my friend and I were extremely satisfied with the accommodations.

The property was very cute and comfortable! The kids enjoyed having the swings and the screened in porch was great for sitting with a book and relaxing.
