It was a lovely trip, and the location was perfect! At most 15 minute drive away from wherever you wanted to go in Missoula. The cottage was very accommodating, has everything you would ever need during a stay, while also being dog friendly! Such a pleasant experience, and the hosts are very kind. Thank you!

Nice little place

Enjoyed our quick stay here. Bubba was very accommodating and it was conveniently located to where we wanted to be. The space is small (there's no living room), so if you're planning to spend a lot of time there or entertain it may not fit your needs, but since we were really only there to sleep it worked fine for us.

Nice little place to stay when you need a good night sleep and place to eat. It’s small and cozy. Close to a grocery store and a few restaurants. Owners went above and beyond to make us feel at home.

Clean and Cute

The cottage is small, as advertised. There is no sitting room (couch or anything), but the two-person dinette was perfect for me and my friend. The bathroom was big enough, though I will likely bring a shower seat next time as the shower is big, but has no tub or built-in shelving to put a foot on. I was grateful for the washer and dryer since the weather was not as predicted, and I didn't pack enough to deal with the sweltering heat and bitingly cold wind (consecutive days). The host was pretty communicative, responding to questions within hours. I like the off-street parking. The beds were not very comfortable, but for our 5 nights, they were sufficient. The bath towels were hotel size, but so plush and absorbent! The place was well stocked with dishes and flatware. Had I wanted to cook, I could have. The water pressure in sinks and shower was excellent, and the hot water was plentiful. Overall, a good experience and we plan to stay again.

Highly recommend! The cottage is very clean, well stocked, and great location. Bubba is very responsive and so kind! They have thought of everything you could need. They even left fresh fruit and snacks for us! The use of their bikes was fantastic! Easy bike ride to downtown. Will definitely stay there again!

Lovely cottage stay

I appreciated how organized and well decorated and stocked the vacation home was. It was very quaint and conveniently located to stores and parks within walking distance which was nice. The place smelled nice and was clean. The only thing I didn't enjoy was what looked like dog hair/short hair between the comforter blanket and the top flat sheet on the largest bed. But other than that the stay was great, thank you!

Awesome for our needs

This is a great little place for an immaculate home base while you are enjoy Missoula. Read the description carefully. It is well represented in the pics. This is not a spot to lounge around. It is a comfy bed, hot shower , and a kitchen to make breakfast, etc. Lots of sweet extras with fresh flowers, beverages, kuerig cups, and snacks. Very dog friendly, but on a busy road, so know your pups’ limits. Owner was super friendly and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again.

Why they chose this property

We came to Montana from Texas over 20 yrs ago to raise our children close to family. They had a great upbringing in Montana and are all off chasing their dreams! We decided to do the apartment as a vacation rental rather than long term lease because we really enjoy getting to meet and host people from all over the world.

Bike trails 2 blocks away that connect you to downtown and beyond! Guest have loved my place because of the location and the facility. Newly remodeled. Sleep-Number Queen dual-adjustable bed, -so you will have have a perfect nights sleep on fresh new linens. Great for couples, singles, business travelers, families and pet friendly!
