I was so looking forward to this stay, and unfortunately was a little disappointed upon arrival. Bob did offer me the chance to cancel my stay for a full refund because they were still completing renovations on the cabin. I did choose to keep my booking because I had planned a girl's weekend trip with many friends who were coming from out of town/had already taken time off of work to visit. Although the owners were honest about the condition of the cabin given the status of the renovations, we were disappointed to find that the cabin was not fully functional as was promised. Some of our main complaints were that there were may outlets and light switches that did not work throughout the home; some sinks were not functional and clogged with hair; there was water damage on almost all of the ceilings throughout the property including the smaller cabins; there were stains in the carpet and rugs throughout the home that smelled like dog urine; and on day 2 of our trip one of the toilets became clogged and resulted in the second toilet leaking as well. For the last 2 days of our stay we were not able to use either bathrooms in the main cabin and the host was unfortunately unresponsive for the first few hours that we experienced these difficulties. Unfortunately, I feel that although the property was under construction, the conditions that we saw were NOT related to the construction project and were simply left out of the pictures and description.

I am sorry Grace was disappointed with her stay. We did our absolute best to accommodate Grace and her group and gave full disclosure that our expansion project was not completely finished yet. We followed up on her complaints and did not find any dog urine smell in the carpet. I have posted photos and information on our listing to give an accurate account of the state of the cabin. The group that followed Grace loved their stay and gave us a glowing review. Please read our listing carefully and look at the photos before booking so you understand the state of our cabin right now. There are some electrical circuits not working so we have had to run some extension cords to make everything fu ctional. We still have a number of things to finish next summer, but for now you can still enjoy this beautiful spot even though it is not completely finished.

Love coming back here, and looking forward to our next stay. Great location and the perfect setup for our family. Very close to Big Fork and the public boat ramp was super convenient. The driveway is super easy for a trailer and cars. Well equipped kitchen and BBQ facilities, wonderful deck, dock, and beach area. ⛱️

This property suited our family very well. It had a lived in feel which we loved. There were so many things to do right there at the house that we could have been content without going anywhere. We did enjoy our outings, but it felt like home to return. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent location, right on the lake.

Stayed here with a bunch of girlfriends. The cabin was very well supplied with all the amenities and kitchen equipment. There could be some updating with lighting and showers. Enjoyed using the chairs outside on the patio and down by the lake. The extra cabin was a great place for three in the group. We will definitely consider returning again next year. Thank you for a pleasurable stay.

Beautiful retreat

Loved the views and sitting on the spacious deck over the lake. Newly redone bathrooms and new appliances very nice. Lots of seating inside and out. Enjoyed the blooming lilacs! Fireplace is beautiful feature and lends to the history of the home. Kids loved the swings and trying to skip rocks. Very peaceful place, look forward to returning. Plenty of room for our large family, bunk room could use some tlc but otherwise a great property.

Great experience!

Incredible property. Loved the "Cabin at the lake" look and feel, really took us back to the summer at the lake days for sure. Very comfortable furnishings, wonderfully remodeled bathrooms. Kitchen had everything we could ask for. Didn't have opportunity to use BBQs/smokers, but the 'cook patio' looked really well outfitted. Very quiet location (granted it was not the high season). Really solid and spacious dock. Definitely looking forward to our next stay here!

Great cabin lake front. Approx 4 miles south of Bigfork. Good owner follow-up with questions. Well stocked open kitchen, comfortable space. Heater, but wood stove not operable (although when we were there it was warm, so not headed). Ceiling fan in living room, no A/C. Nice deck with lots of seating. Nice rock fire pit by water. Owner is in process of repainting exterior which it needs. Overall this was a great property! Would book again.

Location was excellent, private waterfront and very close to Big Fork. The cabin was under construction while we were there, but the owner was upfront about it and it did not deter from our experience. We only wish he left us the plans so we could see what it will look like in the future! You could tell the cabin is family owned and loved. It is not a sterile investment property. WHen you are there, it almost makes you feel like you are at your own families cottage. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you would need. There is ample seating on the new and improved deck for large family meals. My only disappointment was the "closure" of most of the outdooring cooking appliances and the lack of useable paddles for the canoe. If you are looking for a place to really relax with your family, this is it!

We're so glad you and your family enjoyed this special place. Thanks for understanding our current phase of construction. I'm glad you were able to enjoy the new deck! We will definitely get some new paddles for the canoe and reconsider which of the grills is available to our renters. Hope you can come again when we finish the expansion project!

View

The view from the deck and closeness to the water is one of the best. Most of the house, and guest house were comfortable. However, the bathrooms were outdated. The bedroom with attached bathroom was pretty bad. The toilet is low, in a corner and the floor is rotted. The shower is a single one and the door opens in. Only a child can use it. The outside is moldy. Until bathroom repairs are made, property cleaned up, railing on the steps fixed etc I wouldn’t return. We enjoyed being outside.

Perfect Location on Flathead Lake

Pack up your summer fun and head to "the Lake"! The family cabin on Flathead Lake near Bigfork, Montana is the place to gather for outdoor enjoyment. There is plenty of tables and seating on their deck that overlooks the lake. Bring you own wood if you want to have a fire next to the lake, if permitted and there isn't any wind. These cabins beat the heart of their families past and present history of the area. I even found a book on our own family history called "Kalispell Cornerstones", a fascinating history of twenty-five Kalispell homes. For example, page 18 and 19 that has our grandfather, Dr. Neil M Leitch listed as an owner in 1945. A few thoughts to know before arriving is that there are many rocks on the paths. Bring appropriate shoes or boots to walk around the property and in the lake, if needed, due to a slight decline of the terrain. We loved the kitchen and bathroom renovations! Always check the propane tank if you plan to grill. The tank was out of propane, but it was easy to fill nearby and inexpensive. Overall, I give this a five star property! We were so lucky to find it available for a beautiful weekend at the end of June "at the lake"!

Unfortunately, our stay was not what we had hoped. The view in the pictures online of the lake was obscured by both construction and a massive new screen TV that they got in the main living room. So when sitting in the main living room, you cannot even see out.There’s also a junkyard of trashy, old patio furniture and leftover used umbrella stands and garbage down by the lake, including a broken boatlaunch that blocks the view while sitting at the beach. Construction screws are scattered about so we had to be careful where we stepped and sat. The outdoor kitchen area was closed/junky too. To be fair the owner did let us know that the deck was being redone, but the pictures that he provided for us were not what we actually showed up to. See pics. The kitchen is not as well stocked as we were led to believe. There was a lot of dishes that were dirty that so we always had to wash every dish before we used it. The drawers were difficult to get in and out of and need repair. There were cobwebs all over in the kitchen, as well as in the bedrooms. I think if the house had a really good cleaning, it would be a lot better. This goes for the outside beach area too. And any future renter should know that there is no hairdryer in the house. And the house soap was not provided in the bathrooms, we had to go digging through their personal stuff to find some options for hand soap. Overall, we were underwhelmed. On the positive side, the Location was really good and close to Big Fork.
Broken boat launch, old rusted and broken patio furniture and boating trash
Tarp temporary roofing blocked indoor views of lake. Made for very dark inside.
Screws everywhere and disrepair closed grills.

Anissa, I am sorry your experience was not what you were expecting. I did provide photos and an explanation of the state of our expansion project. We have excellent house cleaners and we have never seen cobwebs in the kitchen or bedrooms. I apologize for the lack of handsoap. That was an oversight that has been corrected. It is true that the view from the living room is partialy blocked when sitting on the couches, but there are fantastic views from the brand new deck which stretches across the entire front of the cabin. Again, I am sorry your experience was not what you were expecting, but I am glad you could enjoy this beautiful setting. Bob

4/10 Poor

A bit tired and a bit to noisy.

The grounds are over grown and unkempt all though there are new out door furniture the old is still there making the place look trashy.The place needs to be scraped and painted on the outside and the electricity in the bathroom in the guest house doesn't work as well as several outlets in the main house.Carpet stains, tore screen doors and apparent damage from an animal being left in a bathroom.If you are like me these things will make you uncomfortable and the urge to spend the weekend trimming trees, scraping, painting,fixing the damaged ceilings, shampooing carpets ect. The Bible camp next door is in full swing and the 10 pm sing along is more of a shout along. The things I DID appreciate, The kitchen is stocked with a great selection of pots and pans to feed a large group. (There were 7 of us) The dock would be wonderful (if you can handle little kids squealing). The fire pit is wonderful but again the area needs attention. The 3 full sets of patio furniture (crammed on the patio) is over kill in my opinion. Instructions on how to run the TV would have been handy. The board games were the best part of this property! In the end we were able to spend time with our adult children over a long weekend and that is what we were there to do. This is a lovely area and with a bit of attention I believe it would be a nice place to stay. Best of luck to this family.

Thanks for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you were not happy staying in our family cabin. We do our best to communicate that it is not fancy, but it is clean and comfortable for most people. That is the reason we have priced it below market value. We are planning a major rennovation of the cabin, which is why we are not painting and doing some of the needed cosmetic improvements. In a couple of years we hope to be able to offer an expanded and improved lake home to share with others.

Spartan Weekend

It is always a gamble this time of year whether it'll be rain or shine. God decided rain this year. This made us stay inside most of the time. The main cabin had plenty of room for us 11. It was clean and quiet. The bunkhouse had spiders and we couldn't get the electric to work, so we stayed in the main cabin. The beds were soft but clean, although I would prefer an air matress next time as my back doesnt like soft. The remodeled areas were beautiful. A lot of wood for a lot of people with children and men to remember to care for. Seems a risky choice in a rental property. The pizza grill, ice machine, and smoker were closed for the season but we were able to use the BBQ and the oven inside. Town was but a short drive. The main showerheads held no water pressure making it difficult to rinse long hair. The washing machine didn't wash the Spartan mud away but probably works well for normal clothing. Curious what the ceiling tiles are made of. The TV is not new enough for streaming, with or without an HDMI cable or cast app. The blueray player is only new enough for regular Amazon prime, no added channels. It does not support Hulu or Netflix. I would recommend a newer TV or blue ray player as the internet worked well. Normally we would've been outside and not worried about the TV but again, weather did not permit that this time. Overall 4 out of 5. I would come back now that I know what to expect and I would plan a little better. Thank you for having us.
