If you are looking to do anything in relation to the college this is your house. Walking distance to the FB field as well as the grocery store and a sports bar. Cute house for travelers who don't mind a bit of close quarters.

Quaint cottage close to the river and a one or two minute walk to a supermarket, coffee shops, restaurants and downtown shops.The host is responsive, helpful and reassuringly prepared to assist with enquiries.It has the feel of sitting a friend's house while they are away with many homely touches. Highly recommended.

We had a great time in Missoula! The house was great close to everything you could want including the University of Montana, downtown, grocery stores, hiking trails, and major bicycle paths. We tried not to drive as much as possible and walked or used our bicycles. Perfect location for us!

Missoula Perfection

This is the second year my wife and I have stayed at Shaun’s house. We returned because the house is in a great location, walking distance to the University and downtown, a great neighborhood, and because the house has everything you could need. Shaun is a great host, easy to contact and very accommodating. We definitely hope to stay again!
