Excellent stay on the water!

We were in Libby for our sons wedding and couldnt have been happier with Timber River house. It was perfect. We loved watching the eagle soar and had a blast fishing. It was the best vacation ever.
Sitting on the back patio was our favorite!

Somewhere in the Middle of Montana

The million dollar view brought us absolute peace and heart filled joy. We sat and enjoyed watching the Kootenai River flow by while Bald Eagles soared through the canyon. The river at our doorstep was just what our family needed. Our adult children fished the day away and were in heaven. This is a perfect vacation spot for a family. We enjoyed the long days as the sun doesn’t set until around 11pm. We often ate outside and spent many hours on the back porch. We had to plenty of time to explore and relax. The space was comfortable. The beds were very comfortable and we slept well. The only awkward part was that you have to pass through the bedrooms to gain access to either bathroom. That is fine for a close family but took a little getting used to. The home was stocked with games and the pool table provided good laughs and entertainment. Overall, I would highly recommend this vacation rental to anyone who wants to relax and unwind in beautiful Libby, Montana.

Nicest VRBO we’ve ever stayed in!!!

This property was absolutely gorgeous. The space was well laid out with basically two masters on opposite sides of the home. The furniture, bedding, fixtures, and extras were all top quality and the pool table was a bonus. The whole property was spotless and clean. We LOVED the our door fire table and enjoyed watching the bald eagles across the river. Woods highly recommend this property!!

Montana Visit to the Timber River Guest House

W had never been to Montana. We had planned this trip to visit our son, who recently relocated to Libby. This property, its location on the Kootenai River, and the host’s responsiveness all exceeded our expectations. The host has thought of every little detail and convenience to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable. We will stay here next time we visit (hope it is available)!

Family wedding

I absolutely loved our stay at this riverfront property. The location was perfect for my sons who enjoyed fishing every chance they got. Linda, the host, was incredibly thoughtful, providing snacks and water upon our arrival. The layout of the house was ideal for our family, with bunk beds for the boys and separate quarters for my parents, ensuring everyone had their own space. Linda and her husband were delightful and always available to offer recommendations or assistance. My son even received some valuable fishing tips from Linda's husband. The cleanliness and comfort of the property exceeded our expectations, especially knowing that all bedding and blankets were washed between guests. We would definitely stay here again in the future. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

What can I say about this home and the managers that haven't already been said. They set the high mark and are absolutely the best of the best when it comes to communication and hospitality. The house is spectacular and the location, amazing. We could have used a few more days and definitely plan to make several more visits. Honestly I wish all VRBO homes were like this. Perfection at it's very best.

3 nights and 2 days in August 2023

Our family of 5 and 2 grandparents stayed at house and enjoyed our stay (look for the big green metal roof off of MT-37). There was one neighbor to the right who kept to himself and another person on the left who seemed to be house sitting in the evenings, but other than that, we had complete privacy. The kitchen had a stovetop with oven, drip coffee maker w filters (and even some ground coffee if you forgot to bring your own), a microwave, plenty of dishes and glasses (wine and regular) and a washer and dryer. The living room had a pool table, large smart TV (we were able to login to our Netflix and watch a movie on the last night), some games and a piece of furniture that unfolded into a Murphy bed (my 16 year old son slept there. There was a sliding door to the kitchen so that I could get some coffee and breakfast without bothering him too much. Off of the living room was a long narrow room with two built in bunks at the end (my other two kids slept there - 18 and 21). Next to the bunks there was a door leading to a very nice master bedroom with a sitting area, a king size bed, a modern bathroom, and a large sliding glass door over looking the Kootenai river. The back porch had plenty of seating, a nice grill and spanned the length of the house. This was a perfect spot to hang out by the river. There was also a separate guest room on the other side of the kitchen with its own bathroom for my parents. There were no kayaks because of insurance reasons. We had a great stay!

We had a wonderful time! I highly recommend staying here! We had everything we needed. The owners were very responsive. Everything was perfect. Thank you so much for letting us purchase/rent the second part of the house. I thought it was all included, my mistake but we were able to get the other room and bathroom for a minimal fee. We saw so many animals from our porch area, Elk, deer, eagles, turkeys up the street. Everyone was so friendly. I didn't want to leave. I am hoping to come back to Montana every year!

Great location beside the tranquil Kootenay River. Wonderful waking up next to nature - neighbors were bald eagles and the odd elk that would come to the river for a drink. Spotless and homey place to relax for a week. Would suggest more plates and glassware for guests as 4 dinner plates are just not enough. As well we were disappointed that the kayaks weren't available for use dispite the river being safe enough for kayaking - as evidenced by others going down it on a SUP with a dog lying on the back. Countless other people enjoying the river an various kayaks as well. We really missed out not being able to use the river as that was advertised as one of the perks. Would have been nice to have a dishwasher and blender - but I was able to improve my washing skills! Overall a very good experience. Comfortable beds made for good sleeps. Great communication with the owners - very punctual.
