About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Birders delight! Beautiful hiking! Mountain biking! Fishing!

Right on Trout Creek, this historic cabin is in the middle of a working horse ranch. We raise Marchador horses as well as much of the food we eat. In season, you can collect eggs for your breakfast and fresh milk & cream is often available. Bring your fishing license! Trout Creek has earned her name. Plenty of hiking and mountain biking trails! Quiet beauty in the Montana mountains.

Full kitchen with a double oven as well as microwave. Coffee maker. Lots of other foodie sorts of things.

Trout Creek Canyon is a spectacular and easy trail, about three miles one way. We often see mountain goats high on the canyon walls.

There are very few lights at night so stargazers can have their fill of night skies that are filled with stars and the Milky Way arches high over head.

Come enjoy! Relax. The weight of the world seems to crumble way out here.

We had a wonderful and magical weekend here! Hosts are wonderful, pleasant, and kind people. Property is beautiful and the view of the stars at night was breathtaking. We were greeted by so many friendly dogs and friends, great place for nature and animal lovers. Full kitchen I was able to cook full meals in, plenty of clean sheets and towels provided. Would come back in a heartbeat!

Scenic respite

Nothing could be more relaxing than this quiet, pastoral location. There are some good hiking trails nearby, and not far from fishing access. A wonderful respite from the rush of everyday life.

Wonderful mountain getaway.

Wonderful stay in a gorgeous and relaxing setting. Would highly reccomend if you love nature's beauty, farm/ranch life, or a desire to disconnect. My boys loved all the animals. Daily greetings from the dogs was a trip highlight. I would stay again without hesitation.

We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin! It was the perfect balance of cozy and spacious—very comfortable and well-kept. Sitting by the fire pit in the evenings, listening to the trout creek, and waking up to the sights and sounds of the farm animals made the whole experience feel so unique and peaceful. Being on a horse farm added such a special charm, and we really enjoyed the connection to nature all around us. The hosts were amazing—warm, responsive, and made everything simple from check-in to check-out. If you’re looking for a medium-sized cabin surrounded by natural beauty and the charm of a working farm, this is the perfect getaway. Highly recommend!

Perfect for Star Gazing

Stayed for mine and my friends birthday weekend and we had an amazing time. We loved seeing the horses on the property every day and the owners dogs occasionally stopped by to say hi. Trout Creek being right behind the cabin was beautiful. All in all a great time spent there and we are looking forward to our next visit.

Perfect Getaway

Our two night stay at the cabin was exactly what we were looking for...great hosts, great surroundings, and an awesome working horse farm with an abundance of other critters. We are urban dwellers and were looking for a true rustic retreat and we completely satisfied with our stay! Thank you Tia and Derek!

Amazing property and people

The property with the animals and fields and cottage is like a dream. The beds are very comfortable and the sitting area next to the creek is amazing to wake up and have your coffee by. The kitchen has everything you could need to make meals. Access to great hiking and biking nearby. The owners are hard workers and so friendly. They are willing to help in any way to make your stay great. We would love to return to explore the area and stay again!

Beautiful and Peaceful

We really enjoyed this setting. Beautiful views of the mountains and horses (fun to watch) on one side, and a nice stream out the back. You can relax on a deck about 20-30 feet from a stream. Beautiful sky and star gazing at night. Great trails and car exploring accessible on foot or by car. Tia and Derek are great hosts and very interesting people.

Just what I needed

After a long cross-country drive, I needed a quiet place to recharge my soul. This little piece of heaven was perfect. Tia and her husband made me feel at home. The cabin was just as described: not fancy, but absolutely comfortable, with everything a person would need. The surroundings are breathtaking and restorative. Thank you for the perfect recuperation.

Beautiful and peaceful location.

Unplugged area, wifi was available when needed. Stayed with our family of 5 - plenty of room. Private and secluded cabin/farm house beside small creek and friendly farm animals. Beautiful scenery and several trail heads in the area. Hosts were friendly and accommodating. Offered wonderful fresh eggs and let the kids picked some. Cabin was fully furnished with plenty of condiments. Will definitely consider returning.

Peaceful little creek side cabin

My husband and I and our two kids stayed at this cabin while checking out the area and looking at properties. We fell in love with the peaceful location of this cozy little cabin. If you step out the back slider of the master you are just steps away from a beautiful creek. Leave the window open at night and fall asleep to the sound of the creek. The horses and their foals were a favorite for our daughters. They are so beautiful and very well loved. Tia and her family are very nice but also give you your space. We would definitely stay there again!
