Great place to stay

This was a great rental. Lovely yard by the creek. Super comfortable beds. We were only there for a weekend but the unit seemed to be well stocked and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again! Also very centrally located.

Babbling Brook

The house was perfect, just what we needed. It indeed has a Babbling Brook right out back, and we woke up to two Whitetail Deer in the yard one morning. The owner lives in the main house right near the property and is very nice. Great place, would stay again!

Stayed for a Jaw Surgery

I had to go to Montana for a jaw surgery, and this cabin was a great place to stay and recover. The host was great and kept in contact while I was traveling to inform me of the snowfall and precautions to take. Very grateful for such great hospitality and comfort.

Great Place

Very clean and comfortable cottage. A babbling stream and an inviting deck. Kitchen has everything you will need and beds are very cozy. The area is absolutely beautiful and great scenic roads for a ride and some great hiking trails. We were visiting for basketball and location to University and downtown is great. We would definitely stay here on a return visit.

Cozy, Relaxing Getaway

This beautiful, relaxing property was exactly as it was listed. The host was responsive immediately when we let him know we would arrive later in the evening and made sure the lights were on for us. We stayed three nights and the only thing we would change is more time to stay longer!

Great place to spend a long weekend!

Our first time in Bozeman, Montana did not disappoint. Bart the VRBO host was responsive and friendly. Made a beautiful fire (set up ready to go upon arrival home) for our group after spending a long day driving to Yellowstone. Clean house supplied with everything we needed. Thanks Bart!

Perfect for 2 couples

Great location. After spending two weeks exploring Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks we enjoyed more outdoor time here. We spent time on the patio during the day and the owner was kind enough to set us up with firewood and an A-frame fire setup each night. The location near the creek was perfect. We easily walked to the Museum of the Rockies from the house and it was just a short drive to the Palisades Falls trailhead in Hyalite Canyon. A great place to stay when visiting Bozeman.

It is an amazing property😊

Two bedrooms each with an attached bathroom was wonderful, kitchen well equipped, close to MSU, close to main street, and it felt like the country. Bedding and towels were delightful too. We saw wildlife, we sat and watched the creek in our backyard and we had a great fire in the fire pit. When I go back to Bozeman this will be my rental. Really appreciate all the perks of feeling like the country so close to town, I left very happy.
