Stay connected with in-room WiFi. ## Reviews 9.6 Exceptional ## Popular amenities - Parking available ## Add dates for prices Check-in Check-out Travellers ## About this property ### River LodgeTipi's at Stepping Stone Facing the Swan Mountains on 20 beautiful rolling acres in North West Montana are three 20' Tipi's available for overnight stays for those looking for a more "down to earth experience". This Tipi has a Queen size bed, linens & blankets, grass mats, small tables, and solar lights. Enjoy the moon, and experience the wonder of being/sleeping in an ancient conical structure!! The rest room is near by in the glass blowing studio, which is very basic, nothing fancy....just a sink and a toilet, no shower. But due to such overwhelming interest in the tipi experience we will be adding a new solar powered shower next season! Most folks have been enjoying swimming in the near by world class Flathead Lake. DIRECTIONS Once turning off Hwy 35 at Saint John Paul Catholic Church it is the 3rd driveway on your left. Immediately after the Rising Mountain assisted Living. There are red streamers Tied to a glass and metal pole! It is 0.2 of a mile from hwy 35\. Siri & goggle maps takes you too far down Coverdell Rd. \*\*\* If you are squeamish about insects.... expect a hotel type restroom...or experiencing varied weather conditions, this destination is probably not for you !! ## Property amenities ### Internet -

As advertised, this is literally just a teepee, with a partially open ceiling and sitting right on the ground. We had some grasshopper visitors inside the teepee with us. The property is great, tucked in. This is the place to stay if you're looking for an old fashioned outside/ outdoor experience without modern luxury.

As discussed in listing, the furnishings are basic (comfortable bed!). Open air. I always like to comment on access. Tipis require a short, level walk through tall grass (path to restroom marked with solar lights). Basic, clean half bath plus outdoor solar shower. Tipis have a small, circular entrance which requires bending and stepping in (about 4’ high). ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b27ea453-dd0b-49ce-99d4-8a13b3f0ea70-1752572659330.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from tipi](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c985df61-fc23-4646-bd3b-60d5469c43c4-1752572659810.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/71f94f10-870d-4f41-91bc-74f8b3d8500c-1752572658587.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Laura P.

The peaceful surrounding, priceless! Lee was super friendly and his artistic glass blowing was astonishing! He gave us a tour of his glass blown shop and we toured the gallery. Must see! Until I got used to it, the only downfall for me was the restroom, but after a while it was totally fine. LOVED the outside solar shower!! We wish we could have stayed longer than the two days and will surely return as soon as chance is given. Coming from Florida this was a whole new lovely experience! I'm used to conventional hotels, but will take this again in a heartbeat! It was all about the experience! Thank you Lee for sharing and for being so relaxed. ##### Wanda J.

Jul 26, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Cool Experience but Needs Improvement My fiance and I stayed in one of the tipis for 2 nights. When we were on our way, I messaged the host 3 times with no response. When we arrived, no one was there to help so we left and got dinner. When we came back, we had to go knock on the door at the main house and a clearly intoxicated man pointed us to tipi #2\. No other direction or introduction. We luckily got there early enough in the day that we could manage. But if we had arrived after dark, it would have been extremely difficult. The tipi itself is good, the bed is pretty comfortable. But know that bugs are going to get into the tent and even the cat if you've made friends. Didn't bother me but my fiance really struggled with it. ##### Sara N.

Very comfortable and the host was incredibly hospitable. Pro-tip: if there’s no sun, there’s no warm water for the shower. All was great for us and we would stay again! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7f4e2329-0dfc-4363-8e3c-defac25a01af-1752709534301.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nicole G.

No floor in tent; tent not secure to ground; I love cats, but not when they jump on me after midnight when sleeping!!! I can do with basic amenities, such as no shower and walking to the restroom, but NO HOT WATER!?!? The toilet that was available was filthy - no attempt to have cleaned it for possibly years!! Host was there at checkin, but I asked via messages several questions after we arrived and I never heard from him again!! We paid for 2 nights, and didn’t go back after the first night!! Pictures showed tepees at night glowing, implying that there were lights of some kind inside - there were NO LIGHTS! The outside solar lights were scarce and very dim; outside furniture was old and unsafe to sit on. Very bad experience!! I’m still suffering from ptsd from the cat jumping on us in the middle of the night!! Camping should be fun, not terrifying!! On the plus side: beautiful property, the bed was comfortable (until the cat attack!) and host is an excellent glass worker and had an interesting shop. ##### Kathleen T.

We had an amazing stay and just loved sitting in front of the tipi gazing out at the massive mountain range and listening to the coyotes howling in the distance. Lee was a fantastic host and made us feel welcome and comfortable. I highly recommend this one! ##### Robert S.
