About this property

Relax with Stunning Views of Canyon Ferry and the Belt Mountains!

Welcome to Captain's Quarters, located at the north end of Canyon Ferry Lake in the Belt Mountains. It is a short walk to the lake where you can swim or fish.

Captain’s Quarter is an ideal “home away from home” built on the lower level of my 2-story home. The views are spectacular. The entire unit is well-thought-out and sqeaky clean. The modern kitchen is well-stocked with a variety of spices, staples & condiments. The beds are all custom made in Bozeman. The back bedroom's two oversized twin beds can be converted into a comfy king-size bed. Smart TVs are provided in both the living room and the back bedroom. The expansive spa-like bathroom features double sinks, a spacious walk-in shower with dual shower heads, and plush towels. The outdoor patio has your own private hot tub, outdoor tables and chairs, a gas grill, and a Blackstone. There is a stackable washer/dryer. Laundry tablets, bleach, and dryer sheets are provided. 2 mini-split A/C units in the bedrooms keep the unit cool in the summer. A linear gas fireplace adds ambiance and warmth in the winter. There are beds for 2 couples or 2 adults & two kids. The sectional couch provides extra sleeping for one or two others. I also have a single blow-up bed; just ask.

If you need more space, I also have a studio unit with a private entrance and bath available on the second level: VRBO # 2179416.

Canyon Ferry is situated on the Missouri River amidst the Big and Little Belt Mountains, part of the Rocky Mountains that extend from Mexico to Canada. Our area is rich in year-round outdoor activities, or you can venture into town to explore Helena's historic charm. This year, our Montana Heritage Center reopened after a 4-year renovation. Explore the places, people, and ideas that shaped our state from ancient times to the present. Admission is free.

About the host

Host profile image

I am a people person. While I respect your privacy, if you want to join me on my deck, I would love to get to know you. Someone recently asked what the worst thing was about having a VRBO property. I replied, "You meet the nicest people, and then they leave."

I am the kind of person who likes to give my best to anything I do. I am always thinking of ways to make properties as nice as I can.

I often have my Merlin app while on my deck to identify the birds I feed. On May 20th, Merlin identified 50 different species of birds. The ospreys that nest a few hundred yards away are often seen bringing fish to the nest. Last year, I saw one of the parents fly over with a fairly large, live snake. There is also a bald eagle nest that can be seen from the lake. I have watched that pair raise 2 chicks for over 20 years.

I was lucky enough to spend my childhood summers on Lake Okoboji, Iowa. Later, our family moved to Colorado, where I fell in love with the mountains. Fast forward many years, and here I am with the best of both worlds.

Come join me & my tuxedo cat, Oreo, in my slice of paradise.

Why they chose this property

THE VIEWS!!! I never tire of the ever-changing, amazing views. Also, it is a quiet place with easy access to town.

After many years of coming to Canyon Ferry on weekends, I bought this property. It had a 1965 untitled double-wide. In October of 2018, I scrapped the property & started building. I designed a home to be multifunctional. I wanted it to be able to meet a variety of needs for today & as life changes. With the help of some very talented people, my home exceeds everything I could have imagined.

Watch YouTube: "CANYON FERRY ICE SKATERS" to see what winter looks like here. The clip was taken January 16th, 2019. I was with my contractor & his helper standing on the subfloor of the second story of my future home. The lake had frozen two days before. We watched as about a dozen experienced skaters enjoyed the perfect (although too thin for my tastes) ice as a drone filmed from overhead.

What makes this property unique

THE VIEWS!! The combination of lake & mountains can't be beat.

I have done some traveling, so I know what it takes to make a great vacation rental. I want you to be able to slow down, unwind, relax, and have a stress-free vacation. I know what I like in a vacation rental. I provide an inviting, well-equipped property for your enjoyment. Your comfort is very important to me. I have high-end beds and linens. I provide plenty of laundry products, shampoo, dish soap & dishwasher tablets, coffee, etc. Our well is excellent, so no need for bottled water. The kitchen is well appointed & stock with many basics. I leave non-perishables. If you need something just holler. I am involved in every cleaning to insure the unit meets my standards & exceeds yours.
