Views for days

Our modern farmhouse mountain home has the most beautiful view of Missoula and yet so close to downtown and the university. There is so much space inside (5000 square feet) with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms to make your stay comfortable. The formal living room, separate dining room, and huge great room including a family room, eating area, and breakfast nook along with a huge kitchen with top of the line appliances will help make you all feel at home away from home. Outside our home you will find plenty to do without even driving with a hiking trail outside the front door that leads to the Sousa Trail and the Barnmeyer Loop with an overlook that will take your breath away along with connections to the new Dean Stone Mountain trail (over 12 miles of hiking trails). It has the best of both worlds- Montana mountain life, yet close to everything downtown Missoula has to offer!

An absolutely stellar property

If you're looking for the perfect place to stay in Missoula that is modern, clean, has plenty of room, and with a view that won't quit? This is the place to stay. We had a gathering of friends and family, six of us in all, and we couldn't have been more pleased with our stay. It had everything we needed and more. The owners were easy to communicate with, and responded right away to our questions. 5 stars, across the board.

This property is so spacious and the views are truly stunning. There’s something about having your ears pop from altitude when you drive home from town that makes this a first for us.

Wonderful views of Missoula

The location was private but conveniently close to town. You can’t beat the views and the layout of the house was perfect for our group of nine. There’s a walking trail close to the house plus a well stocked entertainment area with an air hockey game. We really enjoyed our stay.

Super nice Host

Unfortunately, due to a crazy wind storm, the house did not have power but the owner was so great about communicating with me and working to refund me due to this force of nature causing us to find alternative plans. The host was great to work with and I hope I can rent the house in the future!

Fantastic Missoula location and setting

Our entire party was very happy with the Missoula Lookout. Location/view, accommodations (especially the kitchen) - all were great. Laundry outside of the master suite would be nice to have, but was not a hindrance.

Beautiful Missoula Lookout

This house was perfect for our family, 4 adults and 1 child, with plenty of amenities, such as a ping pong table, basketball hoop, air hocky, well stocked pantry, large gourmet kitchen, and plenty of room for our family to spread out. Love the view and location. Will certainly book again if we're in Missoula.

About the host

Hosted by Joy Brooke

Host profile image
Hi, I am Joy and an educator for over 25 years. Our family now lives in Big Sky, Montana after living in Kirkland, WA, Quito, Ecuador, and Missoula, Montana. Our family loves to adventure so we've always loved staying in other homes and now are excited to share our homes. Thanks for choosing our beautiful home. We really love sharing in others special moments.

Why they chose this property

This property is like no other. There are few places in Missoula that have views, a hiking trail outside their front door, but are close to everything in 5-10 minutes or less. It also is a huge 5,000 square foot space that allows all to have their personal space but come together to share in lovely dinners and moments together.
