Our Happy Place

We truly loved our stay here. Plenty of space for all of us. There were 3 couples and 1 baby. We were able to spread out and have our own space. We also loved the living area. Views were AMAZING!

Excellent stay by the river

This was a great cabin in a beautiful location. Clean and in good condition. The hot tub overlooking the Gallatin River and mountains was perfect after a day of skiing. The host responded very quickly to any question. Would definitely stay again.

Enjoyed our stay

We had a hiccup with check-in which created some stress but was resolved by VRBO. Peaceful property on a great river for fishing. We also had a bald eagle land on a tree right across the river from the house. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property.

Gorgeous Cabin!

This was everything the listing described and more! The location is close to anything and everything we wanted to do, including booking a luxury tour to Yellowstone for the day. The house was a great set up to spend time on the porch and fires at night together, yet plenty of space to spread out. The beds were also very comfortable. We will definitely return!

Fantastic family trip to Big Sky

The house is conveniently located near everything that you want to check out: Yellowstone, Madison River, Big Sky, Bozeman, etc. Bonus is that you are on the Gallatin River which makes for a very relaxing setting. Not that you want to speed too much time in the cabin, but the cabin is very comfortable and provides all of the amenities needed. This cabin is especially good for families with children as there are plenty of board games and entertainment areas for the kids to unwind after the days activities. Would highly recommend it for families or just a group of friends. Looking forward to coming back!

Great cabin on the river

We had a great time at the cabin. The location is great as it was a great home base between some activities in Bozeman and heading into Yellowstone. The cabin was well stocked and comfortable for our group. The property mgmt was very responsive with our hot tub questions and were quick to get the hot tub company out to address the issues. Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect vacation rental

This was by far our favorite vacation rental ever! The property and the cabin were amazing. It was so clean, cozy, and fun. The host has thought of everything and provided all you need for a perfect weeks stay in the mountains. It was a perfect location to enjoy all that Bozeman, Big sky, and west Yellowstone has to offer. We cannot wait to go back again!

Fantastic cabin in a beautiful location

This cabin is in a beautiful location with the Gallatin River in your backyard. Right off the main road, it offers great access to many summertime activities. Inside, the cabin is great. There is a ton of space, the furnishings are great and it is very comfortable. I would stay here again

Perfect Escape

This place was perfect. Beautiful views, beautiful cabin, close proximity to Big Sky and everything we needed to have a good time in one central place. We had a bunch of ideas planned to spends some time out in Big Sky and ended up spending all our time off the slopes at the cabin, no complaints. Thanks for sharing your wonderful cabin with us!

Beautiful Cabin on the Lake

The property was just as advertised, and the house is very well appointed. The kitchen is slightly small, so for a really large group it could get tight (all other rooms are great in size). Already re-booked a stay at this same house for next year.

A Great Thanksgiving

We had an absolute blast at the cabin and in Montana. Lots of family fun sledding, hot tubbing, foosballing, X-box gaming, board games, and movie watching at the cabin. The cabin didn’t disappoint - the views were outstanding and the beds were crazy comfortable. We hiked to a frozen Ousel Falls, visited Yellowstone, skied, and just relaxed - just a great week overall - definitely recommend the Lucky Ewe!

Great house and accommodated our group perfectly.

We enjoyed the house and all its amenities. Especially, the stocked kitchen. My sister and I love to cook so it was nice to have all the spices and other cooking necessities. Hot tub was clean and hot so that was a plus. We each got our own bathroom and bedroom so that is the main reason why we booked. Location was good for skiing and a snowmobile visit to Yellowstone.

Fly angler's paradise

My father, two fishing buddies, and I had a fishing trip of a lifetime in Montana. The cornerstone of our trip was this wonderful cabin. The location is perfect. Incredible fishing is just steps away on the Gallatin river. The Madison and Yellowstone rivers, as well as Yellowstone National Park are easy drives away. I would like to thank the owner owner for opening up her beautiful vacation home to us!

Why they chose this property

Our family vacationed in this cabin for over a week and fell in love with just about everything Montana offers. We frequent the Colorado, Utah, and California slopes, but nothing compares to Big Sky's powder. Summer vacations in Hawaii and the Carribean now pale in comparison to the peacefulness of fly fishing on the Gallatin and Madison Rivers.

What makes this property unique

Riverfront cabin with blue ribbon trout fishing steps outside the backdoor. The minute you walk into the cabin, the river murmur will beckon you.
