This was a great location right in Big Fork yet surprisingly quiet at night. Check in was very easy with many resources to help navigate your stay. It is clear that they strive to provide a great experience for guests. The beds were a little uncomfortable for us - especially the pull out sofa that our son used. Overall, we still had a wonderful stay!

Overall Great Trip

Overall, the property was great! The location is wonderful as the river is right behind the condo and you are close to historical Bigfork. The only item we would mention is that there were not many "essentials" in the condo. There were 4 adults staying in the condo for 5 nights. However, we were left with mostly empty Kleenex boxes (rough for allergy season), a partial roll of TP (we eventually did find where the other one was left), one extra garbage bag, no toilet plunger, and no spices except for salt and pepper. Also, the owners may want to consider replacing the hide-a-bed as our son and daughter-in-law found it very uncomfortable to sleep on. These are minor items though. Overall, I would recommend the condo and would stay there again.

This place was perfect for a few days in July! The back patio is private, serene, and you can't hear any noise from the town which is right out the front door. The sound of the stream was so lovely, and we spent out mornings drinking coffee on that back porch. The weather was very hot during our stay and the Air Conditioning really won the day for us at this place. The space was clean, spacious and private. It was a walk away from the delights of downtown Bigfork, and still felt relaxing and serene. Thanks!

Great space, great location!

The space was very clean and nicely decorated. The view and sound of the river from the deck was spectacular! Perfect location!!! Only drawback was the sound of the people walking in the unit above us. If it wasn't for that, we would have given a 5 star rating!
