Views for days

Our modern farmhouse mountain home has the most beautiful view of Missoula and yet so close to downtown and the university. There is so much space inside (5000 square feet) with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms to make your stay comfortable. The formal living room, separate dining room, and huge great room including a family room, eating area, and breakfast nook along with a huge kitchen with top of the line appliances will help make you all feel at home away from home. Outside our home you will find plenty to do without even driving with a hiking trail outside the front door that leads to the Sousa Trail and the Barnmeyer Loop with an overlook that will take your breath away along with connections to the new Dean Stone Mountain trail (over 12 miles of hiking trails). It has the best of both worlds- Montana mountain life, yet close to everything downtown Missoula has to offer!

An absolutely stellar property

If you're looking for the perfect place to stay in Missoula that is modern, clean, has plenty of room, and with a view that won't quit? This is the place to stay. We had a gathering of friends and family, six of us in all, and we couldn't have been more pleased with our stay. It had everything we needed and more. The owners were easy to communicate with, and responded right away to our questions. 5 stars, across the board.

Wonderful views of Missoula

The location was private but conveniently close to town. You can’t beat the views and the layout of the house was perfect for our group of nine. There’s a walking trail close to the house plus a well stocked entertainment area with an air hockey game. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great place for a wedding party to stay!

We had a great time staying at this beautiful property! Host provided helpful directions, we had no issues checking in, and we loved the patio and all the game options. We were a bit disappointed that the floors and showers didn’t appear to have been cleaned thoroughly before our stay and that one of the showerheads in the bathroom did not work, but in general we had a great time and it worked well for our group.

Great view, great house, great for groups

Our family from all over met up in Missoula for a Griz football game and stayed at the Lookout. The house is huge and comfortable and easily accommodated our group with lots of beds and bathrooms. Everyone loved the house and how clean it was. The best part for me personally was the communication with the owner. She even helped out after my stay when I thought I lost my watch there (turns out I packed it). She was wonderful. If we do this trip again, we'll definitely book the Lookout!
