Great Family Getaway
We've been renting in Bozeman several times per year while our son attended MSU. This property is our favorite. Remote yet close to town, the house is well stocked with everything you need. The property is beautiful to walk around and explore. Great fishing spot, unfortunately no luck for this angler. Maybe next time...;)

Remote yet accessible
Clean and well provisioned kitchen. Everything you need to cook a meal, including a Traeger Smoker outside. Bathrooms and laundry room were clean and well maintained. I needed a remote, quiet place where we could fish and hike yet with convenient access to the City. This place checked all the boxes. Wifi and streaming TV along with board games to entertain you while inside, and access to the Gallatin River for fishing on the premises. Management was friendly and responsive. Highly recommend if you want to get away from it all but want to remain on the grid.

Poorly managed; $550 excess fee charged
Poorly managed. The property was lovely and we enjoyed our stay, but we were charged a $550 fee for "excessive damage" and late check out. The home was left in perfect condition, and the cleaning crew was let in promptly at 10:00 check out. We took an extra 17 minutes to move food from the refrigerator to our vehicles, and a woman from the cleaning crew proceeded to put her phone in our faces, snapping photos of my family and kids. We were very respectful to the home and the cleaning crew, and did not engage with the woman taking pictures on her phone.
It's unfortunate that the exit experience on this property, spoiled what could have been a great experience. I'd recommend choosing another property if you don't like unreasonable "Karen's" taking pictures of you and your young children, accusing you of damaging property that was left in perfect condition, and slapping you with an unjustifiable extra $550 fee.

Exceptional place to stay!!
We truly enjoyed every minute of our stay in this beautiful home. Only a few minutes from town, but feels like a country escape. Very clean throughout and new appliances. Perfect for our family to spread out. Very comfortable beds and an amazing kitchen. We would love to stay here again when in the area!
