Very nice cabin

We had a great time at this quiet cabin in the woods. The hosts were great, and the cabin itself is a very relaxing place to spend a couple days. Location is wonderful and pretty close to the city of missoula. We will be back.

Perfect wooded getaway

Cody and Andrea were so wonderful and communicative throughout the entire process and were very accommodating for our overnight stay. Homer creek, which is near the cabin, is very beautiful and they have two beautiful dogs as well!! We will definitely be back!

The cabin is located 5 minutes off of I-90 yet you feel like you’re in the middle of a dense forest in the middle of nowhere. It’s perfect! Very friendly, helpful host who made us and our dogs feel extremely welcome! Thanks again! We will be back!

Overall cute, but not what I was hoping for.

Super cute cabin stocked with great amenities. There is a large yard space with trail access to a gorgeous creek. The only downfall was the location of the cabin. I was under the impression from the description that it was a secluded cabin, but in reality it is a stones throw from the main residence of the property with the cabin porch and fire pit area facing the house. In the evening there were tons of kids running around; just not what I had in mind for a secluded cabin experience.

Cody’s place was the perfect spot to surprise my parents with on their trip to visit me in Montana. Cody was thoughtful, communicative, and a great host! This spot was perfect to curl up by the fire, play games, and enjoy the backyard creek. Will definitely come back!

Rustic Stay 10 Minutes From Town!

You won’t be dissatisfied in any way with your stay. Clean and well kept accommodations and extremely attentive host. From the moment you walk in the cabin,you see the detail and effort put forth by Cody to ensure your stay is a perfect one! Everything you could possibly need is included. Except your food and beverages(they provide plenty of water). So grab your friends,family or even just yourself head to the creek,take in the mountain air,watch the native wildlife and relax! Thank you again Cody and family for a wonderful and much needed trip away! We can’t wait to come again to your little slice of Montana!!

Beautiful rustic cabin. Quiet and the hosts were welcoming. Hosts provided well water and bedding. Also found a small coffee maker and fridge. Welcomed our pets. It is a dry camp but it was just what we needed after a long, busy day.
