There is a new garage on the front of the property (photos of change forthcoming). Please note…This structure is not included in the spaces available to guests. We will continue through 2024, keeping a day vacant between guest stays. This helps ensure the health, safety and well being for you, our guests and our cleaning staff. We look forward to hosting you for your Montana adventure. Please do not hesitate to inquire and ask questions to make certain we are the right property for you. Cheers! Eric & Deborah\*\*\*\*\* Welcome to the Claymore. This Amish built log home is a work of art all unto itself. This tastefully decorated home is ready for your romantic escape or your quiet and restful vacation to recharge your batteries. High speed internet makes it a good choice for extended stay work-cations. It is a world away from the every day but only 7 miles to town. Just steps away from the gorgeous green waters of the Kootenai River where you can catch your own supper or simply relax and watch the river float by. The cooks kitchen is ready to save you trips out for meals...this is our part time home so it is fairly well equipped for quick & easy meals, baking and even seven course dining nights. The master has a king size bed with shower en suite. The secondary bedroom has a luxurious queen. There is a reading nook with books, dvds and adult board games in the main hall, as well as the centrally located laundry closet and second bathroom with an antique tub for soaking away the effects of a day of play in this beautiful corner of Montana. The loft has two twin beds and a view of the river as well. Fast 50 down/50 up wifi powers up all your devices, log into your streaming services on any of the 3 smart tvs...or go old school with one of our many dvds. (Work-cation? Internet up to 500 down/50 up available with 3 days notice for added fee). There is a picnic table on the river bank for dining alfresco. Covered porches on the front and back of the house are perfect for morning coffee and conversation or evening wine and appetizers. Sleeping in late is one of our favorite things so both bedrooms have blackout drapes to combat the early appearance of the summer sun. This house is perfect at recharging your batteries and reconnecting with your spouse...we think there is magic in it. The home is set up for you, our guests. You will not find closets and drawers filled with our personal belongings…just empty space for yours. This home is on a 1.13 acre private lot. There are quiet retired neighbors on both sides but it remains quite private. The area is semi-residential in feel with quality homes but it is right at the edge of Montana’s wilderness. You will see wildlife all around during the day. Deer, bighorn sheep, turkeys, chipmunks, geese, ducks will be seen most days…right in the yard. There are multitudes of birds, eagles, hawks and bats as well. We ask that you keep doors closed so critters do not get in. There are other animals we have not seen in our yard but have found “evidence” left behind…including bear, mountain cats, wolves, moose, porcupines, raccoons, coyotes. We recommend situational awareness at all times while in Montana. There is a Montana Heritage Trail just at the end of our road…Bighorn Trail #42. It is approx 4.5 miles long tracking right along the rivers edge. It continues as far as the Kootenai Falls so no need to drive there although the last 0.8 miles is a rather primitive talus slope and not the young or the physically challenged. We will not cross it ourselves…too scary. See photo #50 in our listing for trail specifics, however the short description is 3.8 miles of is an easy and fairly level hike on crushed gravel equivalent to a rural driveway, high use, open year round and suitable for most hikers, bikers and photographers. The best part is you can begin right from the house! What we love about this home…why we own it: peaceful, quiet, serene, immersion into nature, wildlife in our yard, quality of local neighbors, fresh air, beauty of the home, beauty of the river (Eric grew up here but I remember saying in 2007 on my first trip to Libby..,” it’s the most beautiful river I’ve ever seen…I can’t believe the color of the water”), the ability to calm down from our Seattle lives and just leave it behind for a while. I’m sure the place will affect your soul, spirit and mind too. With everything being so tenuous in our modern world, we strongly advise guests secure a “Cancel for any reason” travel insurance policy. Covid is still having its way with us humans, forest fires and natural disasters happen, home, job and health sometimes refuse to let us be…protect the investment in your vacation.
