New! Riverfront on the Swan River | Reclaimed Wood Home, 3 King Beds, Fire Pit, AC, Sleeps 8

Welcome to Eagle's Nest Retreat!

Your Bigfork summer starts on the banks of the Swan River. Eagle's Nest Retreat is a one of a kind riverfront home built with reclaimed materials from historic structures, turned into doors, cabinets and floors with real Montana character. The river runs right past the yard, with the mountains rising beyond it.

Spend the day fishing the river, boating Flathead Lake or driving up to Glacier, then come back to a family room with a 24 foot wall of windows looking out at the water. A double-sided stone fireplace sits between the family room and the kitchen, and two 70 inch TVs make movie night easy. The kitchen has stainless steel counters, a gas range and bar seating for three, and the dining table seats six with big windows on the view. All three bedrooms have king beds. The primary suite on the main level has a double vanity, a walk-in shower and a soaking tub, a second king and full bath are also on the main level, and upstairs you will find the third king with its own bath, a futon and a small exercise area.

In the evening, cook dinner in the covered outdoor kitchen by the water, then pull a chair up to the carved rock fire pit as the sun drops behind the peaks, when fires are allowed. With air conditioning and a washer and dryer, it is a riverfront retreat for the whole group, and one you will want to come back to.

Summer
When the snow melts, the Flathead Valley transforms into a playground of lakes, trails, and endless sunshine. Spend your days on Flathead Lake, the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, where you can enjoy boating, paddleboarding, kayaking, and swimming in crystal-clear waters. Just a short drive away, Glacier National Park beckons with the legendary Going-to-the-Sun Road, Lake McDonald, and over 70 incredible day hikes. Closer to home, soak in the charm of downtown Bigfork -- a vibrant hub for local shops, art galleries, award-winning restaurants, and the iconic Bigfork Summer Playhouse. Outdoor lovers can hike the Swan River Nature Trail, explore the Jewel Basin Wilderness Area, cast a line in countless lakes and rivers, or play a round at Eagle Bend Golf Course.

Big Fork Beautiful Home

This beautiful property has it all and the previous reviews were accurate - sitting by the fire pit and enjoying the surrounding beauty was our favorite. I would love to have this kitchen in my own home and it was well appointed with everything you could possibly need. Bedrooms and bathrooms were very comfortable along with the TV's. Would love to make it back to Montana!!!

Best Ever

From the moment we arrived, we were in heaven. The house was spotless, beautiful and a dreamy location. There were bikes to ride and tubes to float. The town was pretty close if you wanted to eat out. If you want amazing family time or even to stay with another couple, this is the place to stay. Just please don't go when we go! Can't wait to book again.

Awesome

This is a beautiful home. Very clean. Great host. We saw a grizzly bear fishing across the river and many bald eagles. A very special place. Awesome doesn't really describe it. It is amazing. Great fishing right there on the river and chartered fishing boats are out there early mornings. We hope to go again next year.

Randle was an amazing host! His house was the most beautiful we have ever stayed in. Come to find out he built it! Every inch of the house was carefully thought out and the detail of the decor was absolutely beautiful, relaxing and cozy. The outdoors, the river in the backyard is amazing, and the back patio was relaxing with the fireplace was just what the family needed. 1000% recommend anyone staying here for peacefulness and to connect with the outdoors but also have 5 star amenities! We will be back!

Glacier Park Adventures

This was our first trip to Montana. We wanted access to the park (@ 40 minutes), but a non-touristy home base. Look no further than the Eagles Nest. This home has the wow factor. I saw it on my wife's face as soon as we opened the front door and saw the Swan River. Big Fork was close by and with the help of our host we took advantage of all things Huckleberry. We visited Glacier Park three times during our trip with ease, always ready to return to the house and enjoy the fire pit and abundant wildlife all around us. This is a wonderful property. Enjoy it.

better than it looks!

All too seldom, you are surprised by something BETTER in person than the images or description. this property is indeed much nicer and complete than the images indicate! The building is finished well; all the kitchen items in place and the furnishings fit in beautifully. the house is close to the river and the sounds are intoxicating at night - it just could not be better. the fire pit is the center of the day and evenings and a perfect size. small touches like dimmable lighting, and great TV's make the stay feel like home. the layout works so well for 3 or 4 couples. By far, probably the best value in the local rental market!

Our favorite!

We have been coming to Bigfork area for the past 11 years. Usually we come in the summer but decided to try the fall as well this year. We have seen this house on vrbo and finally were able to book it. It is by far our favorite home we have stayed at!! You can't beat the location. The home is absolutely beautiful and has everything you could need. I was very impressed with all that was available in the kitchen (serving dishes, appliances etc) it was as if i was using my at home kitchen. The beds and pillows were extremely comfy. The back porch and fire pit were amazing. I could be content never leaving the home. Randall was a very detailed, kind and wonderful host! We look forward to booking again in the future.

Exceptional stay

We had an exceptional experience staying at this house. No detail was overlooked in this house, it has every convenience one could ever want and more. It had a well-appointed top notch, spacious kitchen, a bathroom for every bedroom, workout equipment, bicycles, tubes for the river which the kids absolutely loved. This house is what I would build if I won the lottery! :) It was beyond clean which was reassuring during this current global situation. We loved sitting out on the back patio and watch the river flow by as we enjoyed a fire. If you enjoy nature, you’ll see a wide variety of wildlife - deer, hummingbirds, mergansers, swallows and much more. The kids loved skipping the colorful smooth river rocks, we loved the smell of the pine trees and the sound of the river first thing in the morning as we sipped our morning coffees. The owner made us feel like his personal guests, he was inviting and helpful. He gave us helpful tips on what to do and see for our first visit to beautiful Montana. We are already talking about when our next stay will be at Eagle’s Nest.

Eagles Nest - incredible property in a great location

Four adults from Texas stayed for 9 nights. The house has so much character, had everything we needed for our stay and we especially enjoyed the huge kitchen and the outdoor seating area with gas firepit overlooking the river with mountain views in the distance and the outdoor cooking pavilion by the river. Every day included coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening outside enjoying the sounds of the river! Saw a bear on the river, eagles, ducks, deer, and wild turkeys. The property is located for easy access to Flathead Lake, Big Fork town, Whitefish & Greate Falls, and a beautiful easy drive to the west entrance of Glacier. The beds were very comfortable and the amenities high end. The owner was very helpful and we enjoyed meeting Randle. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!
