Amazing property! We enjoyed our stay immensely. Great hosts and the rental had everything you would need. A special treat: we caught the Aurora. A bit of a drive but in Montana terms it’s not too far out. You won’t be disappointed.

Absolutely best VRBO ever visited
Can’t say enough about the hosts, their rental or the location. By far our best Vrbo stay ! We had vehicle problems and the host offered to bring us food, offered to pick up repair parts for us in town, and even helped us fix it. They made such a point to welcome us and go out of their way for us during our visit. We 100% sincerely loved this place and cannot wait to go back.

Wonderful Stay
The Birdhouse is a wonderful home away from home. Eugene and Carolyn are so hospitable and make one feel welcomed, yet allow plenty of privacy. We would recommend this VRBO to all and definitely stay again. I can’t say enough good things about it!

Great place to stay!
Everything was great! The ONLY downside was it was a little further from Missoula than was advertised. But now that we know that...we will most certainly stay here again, we will just plan our trips into Missoula a little bit better! Thanks!

Great Place, Great Hosts, Great Location, - just plain Great
I hesitate to say just how great this place is as it may become so popular that it won't be available the next time I want to stay here. We enjoyed the well appointed guest house, "The Birdhouse," with it's unique and interesting decor, the setting, and the exceptionally accommodating hosts. This VRBO is a great value. Had we known how great this place is, we would have made arrangements for a longer stay.

Paradise!
Every thing about this stay was perfect! The house and setting were beautiful. Eugene’s taxidermy throughput the home were incredible. The house was clean and well stocked with anything that you might need. Watching the sun rise and set over the Sapphire Mountains were highlights each day. Cannot say enough good things about the entire stay besides we will definitely be back!

Great stay
One of the very top tier VRBO's we have visited. Host family was wonderful. They were helpful, conversational, pleasant, wonderful people to be with. The VRBO was probably the cleanest, homiest, well furnished and interesting ones we have visited. The kitchen was stocked with many of the spices needed, as well as coffee, tea, cream, sugar, and cream substitutes. In addition, they provided a little gift of fresh eggs, homemade jam and ground bison meet (describes the thoughtfulness of the hosts in caring for their guest). We give this VRBO our highest recommendation.
