Modern home on gorgeous 7-acres along the infamous Blackfoot River

Perched along the Blackfoot River, this modern recently renovated home is on a gorgeous 7-acre historic homestead property dating from the late 1800s. A dream spot for anglers, adventurers, and those looking for some R&R in a serene location, this property is a true escape, yet only minutes from Missoula. While easily accessible from the highway, the property lies tucked away by a mixed conifer forest, a decades old apple orchard, the original homestead cabin and a large barn.

This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home boasts a chef's kitchen, breakfast bar, dining area and living room with large picture windows. Each bedroom has French doors that open to the sound of the river, leading to an outside patio with ample seating and great views of the river and mountainside. The master bathroom has a large soaking tub with walk-in closet. Grill out on the patio or pull up a chair to enjoy your morning coffee while soaking in the views of the Blackfoot River. Downstairs is a large family room to unwind in after a day of adventure, watch the Smart TV, or play boardgames.

Located just a few miles up Highway 200 from the historic mill town of Bonner, this home offers great access to outdoor adventures along the Blackfoot River and the Seeley/Swan valley. This retreat sits right along the Blackfoot River and offers anglers lots of fishing access, boaters the ability to raft/kayak/inner tube, and adventurers the opportunity to walk the shores and find quiet beaches to lounge and swim at. The property is pushed back from the highway so you feel secluded and tucked away.

The KettleHouse Amphitheater, with outdoor concerts and a brewery, is only a few miles away. It is 15 min from the airport, 10 min to downtown Missoula for easy access to all amenities and restaurants, and 2.5hr to Glacier National Park. The property is also 20 minutes to Lubrecht Rec area where you can find hiking trails in the summer and cross country ski in the winter. Seeley Lake, famous for its numerous lakes, is just a 45 minute drive from the property as well.

Our smart-locks offer a seamless check-in process. We are available 24 hours a day to help in any way, and are happy to interact as much or as little the guest prefers. Be aware of seasonal changes. Although the driveway is maintained, winter driving conditions may apply.

This is a perfect spot to work remotely with high speed Starlink access. The barn, garage, and homestead are for owners storage use only. We do allow dogs with an extra non-refundable pet cleaning fee.

If you would like a ride back and forth to see a concert at the KettleHouse Amphitheater, please message me and I can help arrange a ride for you and your guests for an additional fee.

We live on site in the original homestead cabin and are available if needed, but will keep to ourselves for your privacy. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or needs that might arise.
During your stay at this vacation home, you're just a quick walk from Blackfoot River. Enjoy your stay with amenities like a kitchen and 2.5 bathrooms in the vacation home.

Missoula and The Blackfoot River
OMG!! Talk about a gorgeous view and piece of property! The house was so nice and cozy:) It was well equipped, very clean, and we loved the floor plan. I absolutely need to get pillows like the ones in the master bedroom😴 The house was a quick 15 minute drive to downtown. Kate was very kind and easy to talk too. We would positively stay here again when we return to Missoula.

Stop searching and book this property. Everything about the house and property is exceptional. The short walk from the back of the house to the river made our fly fishing easy and productive. Beautiful stretch of the Blackfoot. Short drive to town but you feel as if you are out in the gorgeous MT Big Sky country because…you are. Kate is a gem of a host. This wonderful experience sets the bar high for our next fishing trip! Truly exceptional in every way.

Amazing property and host
Perfect house, down to earth host with great communication, just down the road from Missoula, fishing out the back door. What’s not to like. A week my friends and I will reminisce about for years. Can’t wait to go back.

We enjoyed EVERYTHING about our recent stay. The house was lovely and furnished so comfortably. We enjoyed listening to the river and stargazing at night on the deck. The grounds were beautifully landscaped and Kate was the best host ever!

U of M graduation weekend
This property is absolutely amazing. The best VRBO experience we’ve had to date. We could not have asked for a better place to celebrate our daughter’s graduation weekend from University of Montana. It was comfortable for all of us, including grandparents with mobility issues, stunning views, and Kate was absolutely an amazing host who made sure everything was perfect for our special weekend! You will not regret staying at this beautiful home from the sound of the river to the hummingbirds, beautiful trees, comfortable beds, beautifully decorated, truly a home away from home and the fresh air will do anyone some good!! Thank you, Kate!!! ❤️

Beautiful spot, great host, wish it could be a secret
Wonderful property. Right on the river. Beautiful views, great yard for playing games. The porch has great tables and nice resin chairs for sitting out and enjoying evenings with friends. Doors off the bedrooms onto the porch provide a really nice resort feel. Super close to town. You can be at a breakfast restaurant in 5 minutes. This is a great find. Book it if it’s available. Your host will be super attentive should you need anything. We didn’t actually need anything but our host checked in by text each day just make sure we were having fun and to offer local assistance for resources. This is a great property.

Great getaway just outside of Missoula
We were looking to rent something near Missoula but not in town. This is a fabulous private location on the Blackfoot River that feels so far away yet is just minutes from Bonner. Everything was as advertised, super clean, convenient, well stocked. We had a lovely time and I would revisit!
