Comfortable cottage in a delightful setting!! The cottage is a perfect size with plenty of room, amenities, and privacy for two couples. We enjoyed the yard with a large grass area and easy access to the creek. It is a nice quiet retreat near a number of restaurants and shops. Our host was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay.

What a great place! Wish we had found your lovely place earlier in our Bozeman trips. Perfect location. Loved the proximity to the creek. Was able to spend an hour sitting down by the creek. Wished we could have enjoyed a campfire but next time!

Bridger Bowl Ski trip

The location was convenient to the downtown area and Bridger Bowl. It was a quiet neighborhood and the owner, Bart was very helpful. We would highly recommend this lovely cottage. The cottage was clean, well equipped, and very comfortable. Our other son lives in Bozeman and it was convenient for him to come and visit and have dinner

Bozeman ski trip

We had a great time staying at Bart‘s cottage. He was very helpful and offered for us to walk on his wood deck rather than the icy path, which we appreciated! The kitchen is well stocked, and we appreciated all the extra amenities. We would recommend staying here!

Winter break

The cottage was absolutely perfect! It was very clean and had many amenities. Its location was quiet and serene even though you are only about a mile from downtown. Bart was great and shoveled the snow from our walkway and deck every day that we were there.

cozy cabin during snowstorm

We stayed for 3 days in January after a visit to Yellowstone. Secluded yet nextdoor to hosts if any issues come up. Spacious, one floor, well insulated so stayed warm despite subzero temps. Spacious and well-equipped kitchen and bathrooms. Beautiful surroundings and walkable to university, Museum of Rockies, and downtown via small streets and a nearby walking trail. Great stay!

Highly Recommend This Property.

A nice secluded, secure and private area. Bart, the owner, and family live next door, but were not overbearing. Helped us carry in our things and was available, if needed. Living area was newly remodeled, clean with up to date features which made it a very relaxing stay. We would definitely stay here again, in the future.
