Stunning Views and all around Great House
This home is unbelievably gorgeous! The moment we walked through the front door we were greeted with the big window in the family room featuring an amazing view of the mountains. We were lucky that the area had just had a late Spring snow fall, the snowcapped mountains were something out of a Bob Ross painting. The home itself is perfect for enjoying some family time!! The kitchen was impressively stocked with all the extras you don't think about until you need it (olive oil, salt/pepper, etc). The management company for this home was quick with their communication and super nice. I would definitely stay here again if we make our way back to Montana.

Best Vacation Rental Ever
Our group was visiting Montana for the first time. The house could not have been better. It was a large well furnished and stocked home. There were so many thoughtful items provided by the owner. The location on the river was absolutely gorgeous and the wildlife in the area did not disappoint. We saw deer, otters, bear and bald eagles all from our window. The location is an easy drive to the airport, Glacier National Park and the National Bison Range. I can’t rate it high enough and would stay there again without hesitation.

There is no better option in Bigfork
Absolutely stunning views from every window. Beautifully maintained, furnished, and stocked house. Everything you could need is there. The kitchen is a joy to cook in, and we were able to entertain friends with ease. Took kayaks out from the riverfront, and loved seeing the horses and ponies all around. I can't say enough good things about this house, location, and condition.

Beautiful House and Views - Highly Recommended
The house is beautifully furnished with huge windows and tall ceilings, and very well equipped. It's the perfect place to stay if you're visiting Glacier National Park. Sadly, there was a huge wildfire in Glacier during our stay, and a lot of the best trails were closed. And the smoky sky made it hard to see into the distance. There apparently are fires like this almost every summer so, if you're planning to visit Glacier, check ahead. We still managed to do the Hidden Lake trail, which was fantastic. We also went fly fishing on the Flathead River and caught quite a few trout. We went tubing on the Swan River, which runs behind the house, and rafting on the Flathead. And we hiked down Whitefish mountain. Overall, a very fun week in Montana.

An amazing home - an amazing experience!
This home on the Swan River near Bigfork, Montana was perfect for our family vacation. We spent the week hiking in Glacier National Park and relaxed and cooked dinners at the end of the day in this amazing location on the river. This was the most well-equipped, well-appointed home we have ever experienced, right down to the inflatable rafts we used to float down the Swan River. Sitting out on the back deck, overlooking the river and wildlife, and the mountains in the distance, sipping a glass of wine, was a perfect ending to the day. This property is a real gem! Nicely done!

Exceeds expectations in every way
The pictures don't do this home justice. It's better than the pictures. Views of the mountains, roaring swan river, nature everywhere. Coupled that with a home that has it all and is stocked with everything you could possibly need. They even had chip clips! I can't stop telling my friends about this place. And Denise Grenier is wonderful and made check in so easy.

The best surprise is when an experience exceeds ones' expectations.
You hit that mark with all of us. A spectacular home to compliment a perfect 3 generation family vacation. About the home- The views, outstanding from every window as well as the expansive deck overlooking the Swan River. The interior space, spotless, comfortable, and divine. Every possible amenity, thought of and available. Such a treat to be able to float the river, (float tubes in the 3 car garage), prepare meals in the beautifully equipped kitchen, as well utilize the gas grill on a separate patio. Read great books in the extensive library. Lovely bathrooms and large laundry room. Equipment for our young granddaughter- full size crib, high chair, baby gates, etc. from the extremely spotless and organized storage room. Plenty of space on 3 levels to be together or have privacy. A week just flew by. We were able to hike the Jewel Basin, as well as Glacier. We walked the Wild Mile daily, and enjoyed downtown Bigfork, BTW- recommend Echo Lake Cafe or Pocketstone Cafe for b-fast or lunch, When in Rome or Laughing Horse Lodge for dinner. We have been coming to Bigfork for over 20 years, this trip has provided us with so many wonderful memories. Thank you to both the owner for sharing your home and to Denise Grenier, the property manager, for making our annual trip so special. We hope to be back soon!

Would definitely rent this propert again!!

Bigfork on the Swan River
The property we stayed at was magnificent. Absolutely incredible view of the river and area. There are a couple bends in the river right before it reaches this property and the water is running slower right in front of the house. We tubed the river several times (great fun) and were able to come to shore right at our rental. The home itself was also quite beautiful. Very spacious rooms, great kitchen, several nooks to disappear into to relax if that was your preference. Denise the property manager and the home owner were gracious hosts. All our needs were taken care of and then some! Overall, it was a wonderful experience. I highly recommend this property.
