"It's vacation time! The rustic themed Spruce Lodge is centrally air conditioned and fully equipped. The home overlooks the entire village of Red Lodge from its enormous east facing deck. This upper level deck is located off the great room and has two large picnic tables with outdoor BBQ. There are unobstructed western views of the nearby Red Lodge Ski Mountain. Beartooth Mountain views further commands western vistas. Mt. Maurice is fully visible to the south. It would be difficult to match the majestic mountain setting of this log home. The Lodge is located on ten acres and is the only home in the city limits of the village of Red Lodge that is perched on the western bench between town and the fairgrounds.
There are living rooms on two levels of this three-story lodge. The space is ideal for an extended family, or several families combined. This home is welcoming and can deliver an authentic Montana lodging experience. A horseshoe pit is located in the side yard and wildlife is on the property year 'round. We commonly have does and new fawns munching on the lawn in the early summer. NB. Please respect that this is a 3500 square foot home and not an event space. Large gatherings are neither encouraged nor permitted. If you have any questions concerning these guidelines, please contact us before booking.
The home is arranged as follows: The upper-level loft has two queen beds and twin day bed. This level has a full bath. The main level contains the fully equipped kitchen with breakfast bar and modern appliances including dishwasher. There is an open great room, dining area, primary suite, laundry room, half bath and ski room/reading nook entry. The primary suite with a king bed is on this main floor. Its bath has a walk-in tiled shower. Additionally, there is large closet / dressing room en suite. There is Wi-Fi throughout the house. The lower level has a living room with a Smart TV, foosball, large lounging sofas flanked by three bedrooms and a full bath with separate shower and bathtub. Two of the bedrooms have a bunk with a queen-sized bed and a twin. The third bedroom has four twins. All of these bedrooms have enormous closets. Access to the covered 6-person hot tub (available year-round), lower patio and seasonal outdoor shower is from this lower level. There is ample parking for 6 vehicles.
The property fronts the ~3 mile long Red Lodge hiking and biking trail which leads to an enclosed dog park. We are dog friendly (up to 2 Dogs). It is an easy 10 minute stroll on this same path to the airstrip and Rodeo of Champions fairgrounds to the west.
Spruce Lodge is located 7.4 miles from Red Lodge Mountain and just a few blocks from Highway 212 which is also known as the Beartooth National Scenic Hiway.
This route features the stunning Beartooth Pass and is the gateway to the northeast entrance of Yellowstone National Park.
