About this property

Mountain Lake Lodge - Scenic, Spacious, and Cozy

Overlooking beautiful Georgetown Lake and with easy access to all-season recreational opportunities, this lodge is an ideal vacation getaway. Enjoy your morning coffee with an incredible 280-degree view of Georgetown Lake and the magnificent Anaconda Range. Resting on 5 acres, this lodge comfortably accommodates 12 people and includes a fully-equipped kitchen, spacious living room, private boat dock, reading nook, and wraparound deck.

This area abounds with recreational opportunities year-round. If you like skiing, Discovery Ski Area is a 15-minute drive away. With affordable prices and exceptional snow, Discovery is the best kept skiing secret in Montana. If you prefer the cross-country experience, ski right out the back door or check out many other nearby trails. Snowmobilers can start riding right from the house too, and are free to explore over 120 miles of nearby mountain trails. Ice fishermen can take advantage of the lake’s thick winter ice and fish to their hearts’ content. Georgetown Lake is one of Montana’s premier blue ribbon fisheries and is full of rainbow trout, brook trout, and Kokanee salmon.

In the summertime, the fishing, boating and swimming are unmatched. Hikers can explore scenic trails in the Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness, and mountain bikers can ride Discovery’s lift-served terrain or other trails close by. Golfers can enjoy an afternoon at Old Works —a Jack Nicklaus signature course and a challenge to even the best golfers.

The nearby historic towns of Philipsburg and Anaconda also offer a variety of restaurants and entertainment, along with an old-fashioned candy shop and two breweries.

If scenic views, high-quality recreation, and friendly local communities sound like part of your ideal vacation, book your stay today and get ready to make yourself at home.

An amazing home!

I have stayed in this beautiful home several times, and every time is better than the last. There is plenty of room for a family reunion or getaway with a large group of friends. Cooking in the kitchen is a real treat -- it is better stocked than my own, which is saying something! The setting is gorgous, and you will relax immediately after walking in and seeing the panoramic views. I can't wait to go back!

Lakeside Perfection

My family and I truly loved every minute at this stunning property. We were in town for thanksgiving visiting family that lives in the area. We couldn’t have asked for a better home base. Comfortable beds, a fully stocked kitchen, plenty of seating for everyone to relax around the living room. Plus, they were kind enough to let us bring our dogs that had a blast in the snow. We hope to be back!!

WE LOVED IT!

We rented this house for a family vacation and it was wonderful. One the highlights of our summer for sure!! We played games, enjoyed breathtaking views from the deck, hiked and enjoyed the lake and dock. The house well stocked with everything you could need and more. No one wanted to leave and everyone was asking about when we could schedule another stay at the house.

best time ever.

The vrbo was more than we expected. The stay was the most relaxing time we had all year. very spacious, super comfortable, had all the amenities ( spices, excellent variety of good quality pot & pans, good quality knifes (hate a dull knife) and utensils. We have stayed in several vrbo and this was by far the best one yet. No one wanted leave. 5 +++ stars. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us.

The Perfect Retreat

Rainbow's End was the perfect spot for a our tango and ski retreat. We enjoyed cooking together in the large kitchen and hanging out so much that we didn't even dance the first night! When we did move the furniture and danced to the warm glow of the fire on Saturday, it was magical! Very convenient for skiing. Plenty of space for everyone and comfortable (although the trundle bed could use new bottom mattress). Overall, just what we wanted and highly recommended!

Absolutely incredible

We chose to rent out this property for our small 38 person wedding and it was perfect. Most of our guests were from out of state and they could not believe the view, and everyone was raving about the house’s architecture and decor. The property manager let us tour the venue a year in advance and was quick to respond to all of our many questions about hosting a small event there. We absolutely cannot thank you both enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better location to have our small intimate wedding ceremony!

Great Montana home

Beautiful large property on top of a hill with access to Georgetown lake. All of the amenities one would want for a small group. The coastal fires caused a lot of smoke in the area so we stayed inside and played board games and socialized. Overall maintenance could be improved. The HVAC filter was plugged causing the AC to ice up and not work, which made it a little uncomfortable.

Fabulous House on a Hill!

This was our fourth year staying at this property. It's a large and comfortable home, with plenty of space for large groups, although we are usually a group of 4-5. We love the views from the home - one day, I'll see the lake with boats on it and not ice fishermen! We skied everyday at Discovery - a hidden gem, which I hope never changes. The property owners (Mindy) are easy to communicate with and over the years, they have upgraded a number of pieces within the home - the stove, the fireplace, and the sofas to name a few. We are hoping to stay again next year, even with the rental increase. We enjoyed some retail shopping in Philipsburg and we ate at the newly opened "Winning Ridge Ale House", which is a nice addition to the street.

Fabulous House on a Hill!

This is the third year we have stayed at this property - we come back for the view, it can't be beaten! Every window in this house has a fabulous view to take in. We also love that we can bring our dog and she can experience the winter snow. The house is very comfortable, with all the amenities you need for a stay in the mountains. I base other VRBO rentals against this house and its general supplies - toilet paper, paper towels, coffee, tea, shampoo/conditioner, and the kitchen cupboards have a plentiful supply of items that you might have forgotten, when staying in a more remote area. We are always said to say farewell and we hope to visit again next year! Thank you, Mindy!

Amazing property

Celebrated a 60th birthday with family that included 8 adults, 6 kids from ages 7-3 and an infant. The house fit us all comfortably with plenty of space. Having access to the water was amazing with the little ones, we spent a lot of time by the dock. The kitchen setup in this VRBO is definitely one of the best we have ever had. Fully stocked with all the pots, pans, glasses, etc. for a large family gathering to prep and make each meal. So many times you rent a place with 2 pans, 1 pot and 4 sets of dishes. This place was setup for great entertaining. Owner was very responsive to questions as well. We will definitely want to rent this place again!

Christmas Wonderland

We stayed at this property last Christmas and loved it and booked it again shortly into the New Year for this Christmas (2015). This property is absolutely magical and provides plenty of room for large gatherings, etc. The only issue I had this year was it seemed a lot dirtier than last year and I'm not talking actual dirt...I'm talking about stains...the large area rug was stained the carpet is all stained, which is definitely new from last year and it is just sad to see a beautiful home like this getting abused! But seriously gorgeous...beautiful views from every window!

About the host

Hosted by Becky Dodd

Host profile image
We, Morgan and Mindy Leach, recently purchased this home to enjoy the beautiful surrounding area. Because we aren't able to live here full time, we are excited to continue to share it with renters.

We fell in love with this area during annual ski trips to Discovery to see friends. We have an optometry practice in Great Falls, but like spending weekends away seeing our two children, skiing, boating, and hiking. This home is the perfect place to enjoy family time and outdoor activities.

Our on-site manager, Carol King, lives near the property and will be your primary contact. She is a friendly, capable manager and will do all she can to ensure you have a wonderful stay.

Why they chose this property

This log home has a million dollar view and a gorgeous log cabin. On top of that, this home provides easy access to some of the best recreation in Montana. This area has the high-quality recreation unique to Montana, without any lines or crowds. The small, local communities are true gems too. Philipsburg and Anaconda offer exceptional restaurants, services, and entertainment.
