Views for days

Our modern farmhouse mountain home has the most beautiful view of Missoula and yet so close to downtown and the university. There is so much space inside (5000 square feet) with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms to make your stay comfortable. The formal living room, separate dining room, and huge great room including a family room, eating area, and breakfast nook along with a huge kitchen with top of the line appliances will help make you all feel at home away from home. Outside our home you will find plenty to do without even driving with a hiking trail outside the front door that leads to the Sousa Trail and the Barnmeyer Loop with an overlook that will take your breath away along with connections to the new Dean Stone Mountain trail (over 12 miles of hiking trails). It has the best of both worlds- Montana mountain life, yet close to everything downtown Missoula has to offer!

We had an excellent stay. The view is second to none in Missoula. The trail and walking paths around the neighborhood were fabulous and the large open concept of the living, dining and kitchen worked great for our small family gatherings. The kitchen was so fun to cook in with double ovens and well stocked with cooking and baking supplies. The host was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay again.
