Smack Dab in the Middle of Bozeman!

Here in the Heart of Bozeman life can be whatever you want: quiet and simple or exciting and adventurous--all in the same day! Get to know our community from this beautiful vacation home, which easily and comfortably sleeps up to 14 people. The Walton Homestead subdivision is a quiet and inviting neighborhood with a family-friendly atmosphere and views of the Bridger Mountains. The yard and an open space behind the house gives kids and four-legged friends a place to stretch their legs and there's a full park and playground less than one block away. It's the perfect place from which to begin your adventures, whether you're staying in the city of Bozeman or venturing further afield to explore southwestern Montana!
Being at almost the exact geographic center of Bozeman, you'll be minutes away from everything: shopping, groceries, fine dining, fast food, the Gallatin Valley Mall, gyms, hiking (at multiple regional parks within city limits,) coffee shops, bars, cinemas, live theater, music venues, spas and salons, bowling, the Bozeman Swim Center, the Bozeman Beach, churches, not to mention the real reason so many people want to visit Bozeman--the skiing, fishing, golfing, hiking, camping, climbing and dozens of other outdoor activities the people of this town love so much!
After a busy day in the Gallatin Valley, enjoy one of Bozeman's dozens of restaurants or come home to a spacious, fully equipped kitchen or the grill out on your private patio and ply your chef skills. There are 7 grocery stores less than 5 minutes from the house, plus we provide a few items in the pantry--help yourself!
Enjoy our entertainment options, including Hulu, Disney+, HBO, ESPN and dozens of TV channels to choose from, plus (of course) you can log into your own services like Netflix or Pandora. There are two televisions, one in the living room downstairs and another in the family room upstairs. And for all those devices, don't worry--we've got great WiFi through the house that is plenty fast enough for your work or entertainment needs, including gaming.
Whether you're on vacation or working in the valley, we've outfitted our home to be YOUR home while you're here. We are excited to welcome you to Bozeman, and to invite you to enjoy all this beautiful area has to offer!

Big House

The house is good for a large family. The 2 car garage is a nice feature. A week in this house cost $5000. The bedsheets were not clean, the towels are rough and thread bare. The "house book" is an outdated mess. There are only a few drinking glasses and not enough cheap flatware. Posted policy "reminders" are of a harsh and threatening nature. Overall, I felt disrespected. I regret overpaying this owner for this property.

Nice Place for Families to Stay in Bozeman

We were in Bozeman to celebrate the marriage of our oldest son. Our two other children, their spouses and 4 grandkids were all there. The location of the house was great, being only about 5 minutes from everything, especially groceries and coffee. We had a dinner gathering of all 12 of us in the kitchen and living area one night and everyone fit just fine! There is a small park just down the street for the kids and a nice patio in the back for the adults to gather in the evening. The neighborhood was pretty quiet, except for some traffic out front in the morning and evening, nothing major though. The hosts were very easy to communicate with. We'd stay here again if the need arises
