Fantastic stay
This is the second time we've stayed here and the property is great. We've got a boat and love having a dock right at the house and the view of the river is beatiful. It is a 10 minute drive to Kalispell and you can come back and unwind in the hot tub.

Home was very spacious and had everything we needed! Great location that is secluded yet close enough to town. Private access to Church Slough which is beautiful. Kids enjoyed kayaking, fishing, hot tub, and everything else that comes with this property. Thank you for a great stay!!

Nice, quiet getaway
We enjoyed the lovely house and proximity to Glacier and Whitefish. Melanie is helpful and sweet, and even baked a delicious huckleberry pie for us. The water and dock is a short walk down a gravel lane, so we were able to use it often. The area around the dock is small, but shaded, so that was nice. If you want a quiet, farm feel, then this is a great place.

Kalispell Dreaming
We had a fantastic time staying here. The home is beautiful, comfortable, and surpassed our expectations. The lake and kayaks were so fun. Melanie's huckleberry coffee cake was delicious as was the experience of finding fresh eggs in the hen house for an amazing breakfast. There is nothing you will be very pleased with this choice.

A Complete Dream
Look no further, this is it. Absolutely gorgeous and spacious property. My family & friends made the most incredible memories. Roasting s’mores by the fire pit. Collecting fresh eggs. Fishing off the dock. Splashing in the hot tub. It’s a perfect location. Not too far from main town but far enough to feel the privacy. Highly recommend. A trip we will treasure forever.

Fantastic Place with a great host
This house is so much fun. My family stayed here with two teens and two eleven-year-olds. We ate on the back deck, grilled every night, collected the chicken eggs, and kayaked on the lake. Melanie is a fantastic host. We rented a boat and spent the day on Flathead Lake tubing--so much fun. It is a ways to Glacier--so if that is your main reason for coming to MT--you may consider staying closer to the park. Kalispel is also a great town--we ate at the Ceres bakery (awesome), and the ice cream shop, and Bulls Head Pizza--fantastic. Thank you, Melanie!

nice quiet retreat
The area was gorgeous and very quiet and peaceful. This was an unexpected bonus that really added to our stay there. This house had really nice features. The kitchen was well appointed and the bathrooms and bedrooms were really nice. the basement was unaccessible but I'm sure they will get that all sorted out. Ms. Nelson was very nice and helpful. the front doors didn't lock and the basement had just flooded but I'm sure they will get those issues sorted out.

Wonderful Farmhouse with Modern Finishes
This farmhouse was perfect for our family of 8. We used the location as a launching point to go to Wild Horse Island, horseback riding, fly fishing in Columbia Falls, swimming in the Flathead Lake, and white-water rafting on the Middle Fork. The kids absolutely loved finding eggs in the morning at the hen house and ending the day kayaking on the slough. The beds and amenities were very comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked. Sunrises over the Mission Range were beautiful and taking in the sights from the deck was the most peaceful start and finish to a day. Melanie was an amazing host! She was very attentive and provided great advice about where to eat. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place to relax and recharge
The pictures on the Vrbo site don't fully capture this "little piece of heaven". Such a relaxing, calm, spacious place to enjoy family time. Just need food, clothing and personal items and you're all set to relax and recharge. Plenty of places inside and out to enjoy family or alone time. Such a peaceful spot. There is a walk-in shower in addition to a comfortable cast iron soaking tub in the spacious master suit, with the sliding glass door by the hot tub. The entire house was very comfortable and the property is incredible. The location is central to many places in the area. Mel providing a great list of options for adventures and activities, along with restaurants. She is an excellent host and communication was easy. She generously treated us with a gift card at Ceres Bakery - delicious. Mel, thank you for being such a great host.

Unexpected surprises
I have nothing but good things to say about Melanie and our accommodations! We were in Flathead to celebrate our 50th anniversary with our son and his family. Melanie surprised us with a lovely "Montana" gift and sweet note! The location was beautiful and was everything we were hoping for! What we hadn't planned on was a very bad windstorm, causing some damage to the home and surroundings. Through it all, Melanie tried to help with all the issues that arose due to the damage and help where ever she could. Coming from Minnesota, and having been on many Boundary Water trips, we are pretty hardy and tried to take it in stride. We hope Melanie will be able to "right" the damage soon so others can experience a very special place. It certainly made a memorable anniversary!

It was really nice. Our son Jim his wife Jana, and granddaughters Jordan and Maleah joined. us the last two weeks. We were greeted by a Huckleberry coffee cake our hostess made. Then later a huckleberry and blueberry pie to kill for. We made new friends with the hens that provided my daily breakfast and a great kitsch baked by Jana. I enjoyed my daily conversations with all of the hens as I gathered the eggs and fed them bread. I watched the beginning of life as an Osprey couple next door took turns sitting on the nest then feeding the young-uns. I tried fishing several times in the ox-bow of the Flathead River behind us but without success. The access to the ox-bow is fine, but getting into and out of the kayaks was somewhat difficult off the dock. JThe area surrounding the home is primarily farmland. There are very large cottonwoods behind the house which provide a lot of shade. It was unfortunate that the recent flooding created a lot of mosquitoes which made it difficult to sit on the deck in the early evening. Our dog Rascal and our son’s dog Nala had a ball playing fetch in the big yard. We wanted to watch Wimbledon tennis and the Tour de France while there., But ended up streaming it on my computer on NBC Sports because the home only had local channels picked up on an antenna. Streaming worked fine once I worked out a few wrinkles. Our kids and granddaughters did a lot of touring. All in all we loved the house and farm setting. Bill, Francia and Rascsl.?

Stop Scrolling and Book this
We have stayed at many VRBO rentals and by far this is in our top 5. The house is even better than pictured, clean, well stocked kitchen, lots of towels, and the beds are comfortable. Melanie is an awesome host, communicates often and we used her food guides which were on point! The location is centrally located to Glacier, Whitefish, and Flathead Lake. The property is unique and if you like photography there's lots of opportunities to get some great shots. We swam across the oxbow and enjoyed the movie room. You won't regret booking here!

Fantastic stay for a family gathering
My family spent a week here this summer (9 total, including 4 boys from 9-16 years old) and we had a fantastic time. I can’t say enough good things about the property, host, and location. The property: there’s so much to do here! My kids loved the chicken coop, the barn cats, the neighbor’s dog Bella (who loved running after our frisbee), the fire pit, the movie room, and the hot tub. The Church Slough was wonderful and we paddled on it almost every day. There’s even an old spinnet piano that I would play on every day. The host: Mel is super friendly and attentive. She provided great recommendations for things to do and eat. And the coffee cake she made on our arrival was wonderful. She truly is a “super host”. The location: Great central location in the area. You’re relatively close to Whitefish, Columbia Falls, Kalispell, Bigfork, Flathead Lake and Glacier. I never felt like I had to drive more than 30-40 minutes anywhere, which was nice. The flip side is that the property is tucked off from the busy roads so you still feel remote and things are quiet. Thank you for sharing your Montana retreat with us Mel and family!

Melanie was amazing and assisted quickly when needed. The property was great and secluded but yet close to town. The location was perfect for our needs and the race we came into town for. Wish she had an on site moose and bear to see but I won’t hold that against her. Thank you! Stay awesome!
