About this property

Beautiful Secluded Log Home 5 minutes from town.

THE HOME

Our home sits on a private 13 acres of wooded land just West of town center of Hamilton, Montana. Our home is gorgeous and features 6000 square feet of finished living space. It is a hand built home with extraordinary craftsmanship that utilizes wood throughout. You will marvel at the massive hand hewn exposed posts and beams. The home is nestled away in the woods on the edge of the Bitterroot National Forest and yet only a short 5 minute drive to the town of Hamilton. We purchased this home in 2010 and did a near full remodel as well as extensive landscaping to give the home a unique one of a kind design and feel. The home features numerous decks and patios two of which are private and attached to the two expansive master suites. This gives guests great wildlife viewing options from both community areas of the home or the privacy of their own suite. Each master has an oversized ensuite bathroom both featuring huge dual head showers and jet baths. We often travel with extended family and the two luxury masters are great for hosting two branches of an extended family. The home features a gourmet kitchen that is equipped with all the appliances you will need to serve fabulous meals. The 30 foot high cathedral ceilings in the great room create a marvelous atmosphere for family and friends to gather and unwind after a busy day of adventure in the area. This room centerpiece is a beautiful riverstone gas operated fireplace. You guests will love this space. In addition to the main floor fireplace room your guests will also love the very spacious dining area that we have equipped to handle a total of up to 20 people. There is also a beautiful loft overlooking the great room with a private TV viewing area. The lower level of the home has a spacious family room that is great for family movie night. The home has beautiful grounds to walk on and features some great landscaping and gardens. You will love the sunken garden and the terrace overlooking the woods. We often host small weddings in our gardens. The home features air conditioning and is very comfortable year round.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

The home features a total of 6 spacious bedrooms. There are the two Master Suites with California King super comfortable pillow-top beds one on each floor of the home. The main floor has a second bedroom with a very comfortable pillow-top Queen sized bed and the 3rd bedroom on the main level has two very comfortable single beds. The second and third bedroom share a spacious bathroom. The lower walkout floor level of the home features in addition to its private suite a second bedroom with a California King and another spacious bedroom with two large and very comfortable Queen beds. The second and third bedrooms on the lower level share a spacious common bath. In addition there are sofa beds throughout the home to provide additional guest accomodation. This home can comfortable sleep 20 people

AREA ACTIVITIES

The Bitterroot Valley is a hidden American treasure trove of outdoor activity possibilities year round. The area boasts some of the best fly fishing in the USA being located on the famous Bitterroot River. Our home is a few minutes drive away from the river. Trailheads for hiking in the beautiful Bitterroot Mountains. located just behind our home, abound and several are walking distance . Just across the valley and viewable from our home are the beautiful Sapphire Mountains and as the name implies you can go Sapphire hunting in these mountains. In summer months you might want to try white water rafting on the Clark Fork River, the Blackfoot River or the Bitterroot River. We love the Clark Fork River as it provides a beginner to intermediate level white water rafting experience. Or you can just keep it simple and go for a swim in beautiful Lake Como. It has a beautiful beach and is surrounded by mountains. A great way to relax and cool off in the hot summer months.

In the Winter months you will definitely want to go to Lost Trail Powder Mountain Ski Resort if you are a skier or snowboarder. This is another hidden Montana gem. Shish, Do not tell any body but there are virtually no lift lines and the lift tickets are unbelievably affordable. The ski runs are fabulous and will test every level of skier. You may also want to rent a snowmobile and go check out the mountains up close in the winter. There are numerous options for groomed snowmobile trails and guides available for every level.

Our group went for a fishing trip in Montana. A property fit us perfectly. Everyone was able to stretch out and have their own private room yet get together in the evening over the fire pit and discuss the days catch. The kitchen was well appointed, and the master bathrooms were luxurious.

The house has beautiful views and a lot of space. It is conveniently located near downtown. House description erroneously lists 2 twins as 2 doubles, but we still had enough space for everyone in our group. We had some minor situations arise during our stay which property manager Renee was great at problem solving & she responded quickly. Good rental for a bigger group. Loved watching the deer in the mornings while having our coffee.

House is amazing. Really close to Hamilton, so it is easy to get to grocery. Plenty of places in Hamilton to eat and small bars to hangout at. We snowmobiled in Seely which was about a 2 hour drive, but scenery was beautiful and roads were easy to navigate

AMAZING!!!

I had my small Microwedding (25) and it was an absolute dream! The property manager is so incredibly helpful and answered all my questions! It looks even more beautiful than any of the pictures can do justice for and was the perfect backdrop to my dream wedding! I highly recommend staying here for any small gatherings or just a weekend getaway with a group of friends!

Beautiful wedding location

This house was perfect for our small wedding, there were some hiccups in communication but Robert still allowed us to continue with our wedding. The outdoor space is very nice and the rooms were similar to what we saw online. There were some issues with the neighbors making false noise complaints and hunting in the woods but otherwise I was very happy with our stay.

Overall the home was wonderful. We had 3 minor issues. First, the master toilet was filthy. See picture attached. Second, the two keys left fit in the door from the garage to the laundry room but would not turn to unlock it. And, third, we were unable to find a way to heat the main floor master bedroom.

We had an amazing stay at this Montana vacation property! The home was beautifully equipped with everything we needed for cooking and hosting—truly a chef’s dream kitchen with plenty of space for gathering. One of the unexpected highlights was watching the deer and their babies wander through the property, which made the experience feel so peaceful and connected to nature. The hot tub was perfectly maintained, hot, and so relaxing after long days of exploring. This home had every amenity we could have asked for and more—it’s the ideal place to enjoy all the beauty Montana has to offer. We can’t wait to come back!

Great location and loved Hamilton Mt. Outdoor space was exceptional. Plenty of room for 9 adults, kitchen and outdoor grill were great. We visited the tail end of the season and the home did show a little wear.Lots and lots of doors and keypads did not work for us but not really a worry.All in all a big thumbs up.

About the host

Hosted by Robert McGuire

Host profile image
Hello Everybody, I am a Robert McGuire. Nice to meet you all here. I am an international businessman and have spent my career working primarily in Japan but also China and other countries around the globe. I own this property with my business partner Ted Johnson who also has worked extensively overseas. We bought our home in an online auction sight unseen. I kid you not. When we actually flew from Tokyo the home was in need of some loving attention so we rebuilt it. We frequently travel to Hamilton because we love the area and people and when we are not there we open the home up to our guests. Up until recently Amy Sage managed our property. While Amy is no longer managing it the home is still just as beautiful as it always was and we have actually spent a lot of resources updating it this past year. We also have hired a new local manager that is there for you to take care of your every need.

Why they chose this property

This home immediately caught our eye when we were thinking about making a purchase in Montana. We loved the design with the massive grand room with 30 foot cathedral ceilings and the beautiful centerpiece fireplace. We are sure you will fall in love with it just as we have.

What makes this property unique

Our home is a one of a kind dream home. It combines wonderful privacy with the proximity to Hamilton your family or group will love. The area is teeming with wildlife and you will be able to enjoy it from the comfort of the many decks and expansive windows in the home. We love this home and are sure you will too.
