About this property

Grain Bin House in the Heart of Philipsburg

A unique grain bin (silo) dwelling nestled in trees, located three blocks from award-winning Philipsburg Brewery, restaurants, and shopping. Complete with fire pit, gas grill, TV, internet, radiant heat floors and washer/dryer. Enjoy the mountain and valley views from the deck. Just minutes away are Discovery Ski Area & Mountain Bike Park, Granite ghost town, sapphire mine, Rock Creek Blue Ribbon trout stream, Fairmont Hot Springs & Golf Course, Pintlar Wilderness, and Georgetown Lake. The Silo house is 75 miles from Missoula and 138 miles from Bozeman. Access the main level from the front door at street-level via footbridge, or from the back door on lower level via the alley and yard. Two small bedrooms with king-sized beds are located on the lower level, as is a common TV area and full bath. The couch (click clack style) in common TV area also folds out for small sleeping area for child or small adult. On the main level is an open-concept living room, kitchen, eating nook, half bath, and deck access. Ladder stairs (alternating tread) lead to the open loft which overlooks the living room area. The loft has two twin beds and a tv, perfect for kids. Enjoy this unique owner-built home while exploring Philipsburg and surrounding Flint Creek Valley. ***ATTN WINTER RENTERS- in snowy winter weather, 4-wheel drive may be needed to get up the hill (3 blocks) from downtown to our street as the hill is very steep. You may need to also shovel the walkway from the street to the front door on your arrival. ***

Very unique rental home!

The grain bin house is a unique, creative rental home with original artwork done by the owners! We really enjoyed the comfortable porch with all the hummingbirds! It was so nice to be close enough to walk to town. Fun place!

Out of Town Wedding

This is such a little gem! I thought it would be fun but it surpassed expectations. Even though we spent very little time there (due to wedding obligations about 40 min away) we were completely enchanted with the quality of construction and the fun mid-century furnishings/theme. All was so comfortable and owners have spent much attention to detail. We'd love to come back again when we could spend more time!

We really enjoyed the unique structure and artistic decor. It was an easy walk to the town center and a great location from which to launch grander walking adventures. The beds are super comfortable and we just thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Grain Bin!

Silo life

Our short stay in the silo house was awesome. The home was well thought out and very comfortable. It rained one afternoon and all night. Initially we were a little offput by the sounds of the rain on the tin skin but we grew accustomed to it quite fast and it was actually pleasant at bed time and lulled us to sleep. The only thing we didn't care for was the stairs to the loft. We had no children with us and didn't use the loft but those stairs could be a real hazard.

End 0f summer family retreat

We absolutely loved our stay there!! What a charming and practical VRBO!! Everything you need and nothing you don't ~ so refreshing!! ~ so easy to be there and focus on our family ~ The craftsmanship of the silo and the art and decorative aspects are top notch!! This will be an annual retreat for our family! Not to mention we found Philipsburg to be a diamond in the rough!! Everything from the ice cream shop to the Brewery! We walked up to the Brewery one afternoon about 4:30 ~ there was a wedding there at 5 ~ they gave us a beer and kicked us out~ as we walked back to town the wedding couple, party and guests all came walking up the road ~ adults with a beer, children & dogs!! When we stopped downtown, businesses were closed for "Town Wedding" Gotta love the small town genuine spirit!!

Five stars

Five stars! The Silo is a very singular VRBO that I highly recommend. The architecture and artwork contribute even more to the uniqueness of this space. It was thoughtfully designed, not only to be distinct and creative; but to fully accommodate your needs. The needs you don't think about until you don't have them (ex: outlets near the beds). One of the stand out features that our party enjoyed the most was the deck. It was private, spacious, has stylish outdoor furniture, shade panels, gives you the illusion of being in remote nature while being in town, and has a hummingbird feeder that is frequented often for you to enjoy the hummingbirds. We spent the majority of our time on the deck playing the fun games the VRBO provided. Also, thank you so much for being dog friendly! We added this VRBO to our "must return to" list.

Unique Stay

The Silo was clean and comfortable. My husband and I stayed at the Silo for 2 1/2 weeks. We spent much of our days hiking around beautiful Montana. It was great to come back to the Silo, make dinner and relax on the deck. Occasionally, we would head to the “Springs” for a beer and to enjoy live music. The town is bustling on the weekends with unique shops and several restaurants. Our host was responsive and flexible. (Our favorite hike was Storm Lake to Storm Pass to Goat Flat — about 10 miles round trip but you can do just some of the trail although we recommend going all the way to Storm Pass. The views are phenomenal.)

4 Generation Get-together

Property was very unique. Very cute how it was decorated. Stairway to loft was usable only by younger people, but we had all ages there from 80 down to one 10 year old. My 3 daughters, 2 of my granddaughters and one of my great-granddaughters. So it was comfortable for all of us. We were celebrating my 80th birthday early. It was within walking distance to downtown. Good places to eat! We had beautiful weather while there and the back deck area was very enjoyable - ate one dinner there. It was great to see the surrounding area from the windows around the built-in dining table. Our whole vacation included Missoula, Glacier National Park, Kalispell, stopped at Flathead Lake near Big Fork for lunch on the way to your VRBO which was in driving distance of one of my daughter's mtn. home in Georgetown where we went for 4th of July, then on to Quinn's Hot Springs Resort before flying back home on Friday, July 7th. We had a wonderful vacation in your beautiful state of Montana and staying at the Silo home added very much to that enjoyment.

A Gem!

The grain Silo was the perfect property for our trip. We take a yearly journey to search for rocks, gems and minerals and we used the grain Silo as the center of our trip. The property was unique, cozy, surrounded by beautiful trees and was the perfect setting for our sapphire hunting. The teenagers slept in the loft and we had plenty of room for our group of 5. Everything was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the artwork was fun to explore. Downtown was two streets away and had plenty of fun shops and great places to eat. We would strongly endorse this property and would gladly stay again if our travels take us this way again.
