Birthday and Anniversary celebration

We just love this little place. Not the first time staying and won’t be the last. We enjoyed the local attractions and scenery. The host is the best! Can’t wait to visit again! And the book that was left was absolutely amazing “Flash”

Kootenai Getaway

We had a very relaxing stay. Everything was so quaint with loads of character. Very quiet, enjoyed a coffee with a fire each morning. We’d love to come back.

Cozy and comfy

We had everything we needed for cooking meals and relaxing together at this comfy tiny house on the river. My husband “worked from home” for two days and really got work done! The sauna was perfect and the whole property vibes very calm and space is well cared for and intentional.

Cozy and clean

The property was gorgeous and offered very nice privacy and amazing views of the river and mountains! Cabin was so nice and warm even when snowing outside and was the perfect place to stay over Christmas! All of the little touches really show how much hosts care about your experience there. Thank you so much for having us!

Nice stay with everything you would possibly need.

We stayed in the cabin 3 nights. Was a good location and the cabin provided all one needs and more. They have gone out of their way to make it a good spot. Every little detail thought of and provided. So much stuff in the cabin without feeling cluttered. While we went for hikes we could have easily filled our time without leaving the property.

Beautiful cabin

My husband and I stayed 3 nights here with our dog. We had been to the area before and wanted to explore it further. The bunkhouse was a perfect base for kayaking, fishing and hiking. We loved the privacy and all the many extra little touches. They have truly thought of everything. Thanks for a great stay!

Absolutely wonderful

Tish’s is about details and they are EVERYWHERE! My wife and I giggled at all the signs, the random knickknacks and absolutely random design touches. Loved all of it. Will definitely stay here again.

Lovely place to stay

We love everything about this beautiful cabin. It was our 2nd time back and we look forward to going back. It’s cozy, perfect getaway from the city. Every detail inside and out the cabin was well thought out! It kept us warm while it was freezing outside...and provided us with everything we needed to cook and have delish meals, especially on the grill! Definitely going back!

Coolest little cabin

I really wasn't sure what I was going to be walking into once we got to Montana. But omg, this was one of the most coolest place on earth. I thought my wife was going to have a fit, being she was a city girl, but she loved it. Tish, you done well on making this little cabin so cozy. They had everything thing that you can imagine from toothbrush to eggs in your cabin. (You have to cook it of course). We had a lot of fun, with good people. Guys keep up the good work. Toothpicks- Lol.

Sweet & Serene

I picked Tish's place for my solo getaway this year and I am so glad I did. The Bunkhouse was the perfect size for me; she has every item one could need available in this small place! It is so peaceful right on the beautiful Kootenai River. The little town of Troy is a few blocks away for picking up food/supplies. The trains run through the area every so often and blast their horn, but I love the sound of trains...it may bother some folks though. The whole area is beautiful and Tish has put a lot of work and love into her property. There is a sauna, a warming yurt with movies and books to read, a little self-serve bar on the honor system if you want a cocktail, and bicycles to borrow. You don't want to canoe or swim on the river right there (too swift and shallow with slippery rocks), but there are swimming and fishing areas very close by. I just loved the whole feel of the place and hope I can get back there in the future. Tish is an exceptional host!

Cozy cabin on the river

This was the second time I have stayed and both times the experience was very good. The space is setup to accommodate folks in a very friendly way. All your basic needs are met and more. I was in town for work and just enjoy a hassle free evening and not having to deal with a hotel.

Kootenai Get-Away

The cabin was wonderful. Yes it is small but very fun. Clean and cozy. The deck area was a perfect place to eat any meal, mostly our evening meal for us. The path and lawn chairs to/at the river is short and very relaxing. Our hosts walked us through the Yurt and Sauna as well as the rest of the grounds. If our future trips back to Troy area align with cabin availability, we very much would like to stay here again. no doubt about it.
