Perfect location family friendly.

It was a great location to get to the hustle and bustle of activities over the marathon weekend. It was a great way for a family with kids that still need naps that a hotel could not accommodate. I enjoyed to still be able to cook most meals at home making it a cost affective way to travel for a large family. Having the basic cook ware and spices available was very helpful.

Great stay

The house is in a good location - close to restaurants and coffee shops. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of blankets and towels. The staircase going down to the two bedrooms and bathroom downstairs is fairly challenging to maneuver, but there is access through the back door. Overall the stay was great and comfortable!

Amazing place!

We had such a great time, the house was very clean and really well stocked! Plenty of towels and kitchen gear, and the beds were comfortable with lots of pillows. Having a yard was awesome, and we were within walking distance of many local shops and sights. We would absolutely stay again!

Location 10+

Enjoyed our stay for a mini family reunion. Beds were super comfy! Great backyard! Such a convenient location! Knew going in that the spiral staircase could be an issue. Thank goodness there was access to the lower level from the backyard. Plenty of parking between driveway and alley access. House was well stocked with lots of amenities.

It was a great stay.

The house was clean and well-kept. The main bedroom is on the main floor, another bedroom has a step down and the basement has more sleeping options and a second bathroom. Be aware that the metal spiral staircase to the basement is steep. The backyard is fenced and private. We enjoyed a very nice evening around the firepit.

Missoula Family Vacation

Our family really enjoyed our stay here. It accommodated our family of 6 with plenty of room to spare. So convenient to downtown and a really quiet neighborhood. We loved relaxing by the firepit almost every evening. The living room sofa was not very comfortable and we couldn’t find any hangers in the closets, which seems like a pretty cheap and easy thing to have. But, other than those few small things the house worked out really well for us and we would stay there again if we are ever back in the area.

A place to come back to

Our family descended from 3 states for a Missoula wedding and this was a gem of a place to stay. Arriving late at night, we had no idea we would wake up to such a beautiful views right outside the front window! After we all got done talking about how perfect the location and house was, and how comfy the beds were, we were able to enjoy the view out the front windows, and the yummy bakery and coffee the neighborhood had to offer. If we find ourselves back in Missoula, we know where we will stay!

Nice place to stay in Missoula

Comfortable home with a great location for our needs. Kitchen was well equipped as we prepared several meals. The linens are excellent. The beds comfy. Good info in guest book. Only slightly negative things we have are that the lighting in the kitchen was not good and the couch is not very comfortable. When we come back to Missoula with a large group we will definitely look into staying here. Thank you!

Cozy house with lots of charm

We enjoyed our stay at this cozy house. The girls loved the comfy bedrooms and the spiral staircase. It was a nice location in town and there’s a great coffee and tap house across the street. The place is dog friendly, however, I am glad we didn’t bring out 70 pound dog. There is no way he could have navigated the spiral, metal staircase and that is the best access to the backyard. Definitely recommend the place for families and/or a group of friends!

Cozy but not comfortable

Property was shabby but clean. Dark interior. No dishwasher. Tiny bathroom and kitchen. Rooms are good size. Bedding was plentiful and nice. The toaster caused the fire alarm to go off, we cleaned it out and were able to use it without smoke. Hard sofa and dining chairs in living room. Finding channels on TV took some experimentation. We had 7 adults and it was tight. Home and yard were dangerous for my mobility challenged Father and pregnant niece due to uneven ground outside, window wells at driveway, no railings on stairs. Many uneven places inside the home too, the tiny spiral stairs, unexpected step heights to ‘garage’ bedroom—2 of us almost fell in the dark. Had planned to use fire pit but it wasn’t convenient, especially at night in the dark, to walk around the house with overgrown plants and uneven path & steps. Location was convenient to downtown, university, etc. since we only slept there and ate breakfast it was ok but disappointing. Property best for young and as a crash pad, not a hang out.

Not very functional

The house was very clean, but the photos and write up made it sound bigger than reality. We brought our dog, but did not have access to the back yard except by going outside and around the side of the house. There is a door going outside from the lower level, but the spiral staircase was not conducive for our dog to descend safely. There was no patio to sit outside on or any patio furniture. There was no grill for outdoor cooking. There are 3 dogs that live next door that made it very awkward to take our dog out. Their owner did not seem happy either. The “back alley” parking and dumpster was only accessible by about a 2-foot side, branch and vine covered path. The instructions for the tv said there were 2 remotes and we could only find one so we didn’t bother to turn it on. This is property that will sleep 10 people, but 10 people cannot coexist here comfortably. Next time, we will look further out of town. One positive I will give it was the beds and linens: top notch!

Quaint House

Let me start by saying the thought put into stocking this house with amenity's is above any I have experienced. This is the perfect house for a city trip with family and or friends. The location is great and close to main attractions. There is a convenience store on the corner, where you can get items you might need during your stay without having to jump in the car and drive. Most listings we saw didn’t have a full kitchen, so we appreciated that this one did, with a large table to gather around and plenty of chairs. Plus a washer & dryer which was a lifesaver. The living room area is a bit small. The couch is not the most comfortable to sleep on for older people, so if that’s You, get dibs on one of the beds 😊 Having the 2 bathroom’s was extremely convenient one upstairs and one downstairs as the spiral stair case does work for everyone. The beds were quite comfortable, from firm, to soft and fluffy. Plenty of extra linens, down comforters and blankets. I feel that you need to take extra precautions when bringing kids under three even though there is a little gate (not attached) to place at top of stairs, the railings are wide enough to fall through and no blocking them from the bottom floor. Not a problem if you are attentive to this age. The back yard is large with lots of room for games with nice fire pit and chairs great for outdoor fun. Plenty of parking for 4 vehicles. I’d highly recommend staying with such a friendly and thoughtful host!

Great location for university activities!

We enjoyed renting this property. We had 8 adults and 2 children under 10 stay here. There was just enough bedroom space for the adults and the children slept on the cushions in the basement. The common spaces are very small making gathering all together a little tight. The bathrooms are also very small with no counter space. The bedrooms were more spacious, the beds were all very comfy and had a lot of pillows which was a very nice touch! They provided games, coffee, and condiments that were nice to have access to. The location was perfect for a griz game and close to good restaurants. Cambie, located across the street was a favorite of ours. Overall we would stay here again for a university event!

The house was smaller than anticipated but we managed fine with 10 adults.

We were surprised that the house was smaller than the pictures indicated but we really had no problems with 10 adults there. We were glad to find the outside door to the downstairs because a couple of us couldn’t use the spiral staircase. The railing at the bottom step being cut off was dangerous. Most concerning to us were the amount of leaves covering the steps in the back because that was definitely a safety hazard. However, since I did not contact the liaison person I probably shouldn’t complain. Because there was a home Griz game getting out of the front driveway was challenging. We appreciated how the kitchen was furnished with everything we needed. More lights in the upstairs bathroom would have been nice 😊 but by far the best part were the comfortable beds!

Just Right!

In town to see daughter at UofM and catch a football game. House was perfect for what we needed. Enough room to gather and hang out, close to campus and enough room for everyone to sleep. Big bonus with firepit out back. We bought some wood and sat around the fire one night. Just great.
