We live on ten acres tucked in the pines at the foot of the Sapphire mountains with views west of the broad Bitterroot Valley and the stunning Bitterroot Mountains. Only a mile behind our house is a state wildlife management area and beyond that National Forest and then the Welcome Creek Wilderness. We have a greenhouse and garden on site but our major vegetable growing operation is down in the valley. Lots of wildlife travel through our lot, including a number of owls. In our first five years here we have seen five different owl species, which gives the cabin its name! We have three resident cats and a blue heeler, along with 6 chickens who free roam and you will likely meet.Nestled in the pines with a beautiful view of the Bitterroot Mountains, this 200 Square foot cabin has a cozy sleeping loft, deck, kitchenette with propane stove(propane provided) and woodstove(wood provided). Potable water and outhouse available. As well as a picnic table and fire pit(not available during fire season). While the cabin is standalone, it is about 100 yards from our house in full view, so not 100% private. Parking is available a short walk from the cabin. Halfway between Hamilton and Missoula, we are located about 45 minutes drive from each, and about 10 minutes off the main highway. The last 3 miles to the cabin are a dirt road, but 4wd is not necessary.
NOTE: This is a loft, so renters must be able and comfortable to use a ladder! There is a small fold out couch on the ground level, but there is still a step to get up in the cabin.
Cabin does not have power, please bring your headlamps! Candles and some back up flashlights provided. Water is available at nearby spigot/hose.
Cabin sleeps 3, but feel free to bring sleeping pads and in that case a couple more could snug up in the loft, or out on the deck!
