Perfect Weekend Ski Getaway

This was the perfect place for our family of five’s weekend ski trip. It was very clean and comfortable, and the setting was peaceful and beautiful. A bonus was the herds of elk along the road every morning and evening. We would definitely stay here again.

Cabin was spotless when we arrived. Was surprised a camp trailer was on site and a large black dog frequented the area. Instructions re: WiFi access, your expectations, were well explained in the book in the cabin. Thank you for making our stay so pleasant. Karen

Home was beautiful. Furnishings were lovely and beds very comfortable. The air conditioner was very helpful when one day hit 100 degrees. We so enjoyed sitting in the back yard listening to the river run by and enjoying the woods. We were so surprised when 25 turkeys paraded just feet by us as we sat outside! Darby has two new restaurants that were great and we enjoyed hiking the nearby trails. Of course my husband loved fishing the West Fork of the Bitterroot. We will be back!

Nice to sit by the creek in the evening. 2 cow elk were out calling to each other one morning! Cool! Would be nice if some of the weeds close to cabin were cut down.

What a Nice Surprise

The property looked just as advertised, and maybe better. The cabin is extremely clean and all is in good condition. No worn out furnishings or appliances. Finishes are not scuffed up, either. The owners have thought of all you need for your stay, We visited while snow was still on the ground. So we didn’t make use of the outdoors. But it was pretty!

Great Darby Getaway

The property is perfectly located for our trip. We flyfish the West Fork and this location made it easy to meet our guides at the launches. The river is close to the home and makes the best sounds to fall asleep to. Management was responsive to all our pre arrival questions and everything in the home was as advertised. Accommodation was new and decorated with a Montana feel. No cell service but used internet for calling and it worked great. Owners provided a nice resource notebook with all the info needed from where to shop, sites to see, and best restaurants. Comfortable bedding and linens and nice TVs with Direct TV and steaming subscription access. We will definitely make this our first choice for return trips.

All the comorts of home in a gorgeous and private mountain setting!

The cabin was super clean and well supplied with everything we could want. The hosts had gone the extra mile to make EVERYTHING extra comfortable and even provided family games and ingredients for smores. Enjoyed coffee every morning on the comfy patio furniture, listening to the sound of the mountain stream running behind the property. One morning a young male moose walked 10 feet in front of me!! Cabin is right by some wonderful hiking trails in the Bitteroot National Forest too. I did give a little lower rating because our check in was stressful. We did not get information about how to check in and after a long day of driving had to drive back into town about 15 miles one way (to get internet) while the rest of the family waited outside the cabin to contact vrbo. Aside from the check in snafu, the rest of our stay was fabulous in every way!! We can't recommend this host and cabin strongly enough!! :)
