About this property

Quiet sophisticated elegance on the shores of Flathead Lake.

HOME IS OCCUPIED FROM LABOR DAY THROUGH END OF SEPTEMBER EVERY YEAR DESPITE CALENDAR AVAILABILITY.

The Rookery on the north shore of Flathead lake is one of the most peaceful and serene lakeshore retreats in the country. The home was designed by notable local architect Larry Pearson. Inspired by the oceanside estates of Cape Cod and Nantucket, the home is designed to reflect a quieter time when people spent their summers away from the hustle and bustle of city life in order to relax and recharge. The experience at The Rookery is completely unique compared to the other properties on Flathead Lake. The Northshore is the shallowest part of the lake and lends itself to quiet solitude because of the very sparse boat and wave runner traffic. The shoreline is ideal for kayaking, swimmimg, and stand up paddleboarding. Shallow draft boats can usually make their way into the dock at high pool but we suggest extreme care. The charming village of Bigfork is walking distance from The Rookery as are all the amenities associated with a lakeside town. Spend your evening attending The Bigfork Playhouse after dining in one of Bigfork's many restaurants or grill some oysters down at the boathouse while enjoying magnificent sunsets with your friends and family. The Rookery is unlike anywhere you have ever stayed

About the host

Hosted by Brett E.

Host profile image
My name is Brett. I am a 5th generation Montanan who spent many years in Polson on the south end of the lake. I am married to a lovely lady, we have two great kids and are based in Bozeman, MT. We have partnered with two fantastic families on this property who spend as much time as possible enjoying the home and all it offers.

Why they chose this property

From the first minute I stepped foot on this property in 2011 it has spoken to my soul. It was designed, built and owned by a dear friend so we had the honor of staying on occasion and that only solidified our love of the property. When the opportunity arose to take our turn as caretakers of The Rookery we jumped on it with two other families so we could spread the enjoyment of this magical place with our closest friends. This is a legacy property that we hope our children and their children will enjoy for a lifetime.

What makes this property unique

The absolute calm and serenity of The Rookery is what sets this property apart from the rest of the lakefront homes. Beautiful southern exposure and the shallow waters of the Northshore of Flathead make this property a truly unique experience.
