Nice University Neighborhood Location

The house was in a great spot, centrally located next to the U, a quick walk to downtown, and just a stone's throw away from two great coffee shops.

Excellent stay and location

We were searching for a place that would accommodate dogs while still being convenient to enjoy all the things Missoula has to offer. This rental surpassed our expectations! The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, and dishes which made cooking easy. The house is within walking distance to town for coffee, dinner, or a drink. The neighborhood was quiet and offered multiple sidewalks to walk our dogs or to just explore. The bedroom and bathroom upstairs offer a little seclusion if you are looking to rent a place with other couples or family members. I would caution you on the stairs going upstairs as they are a little steep. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves back in the Missoula area. Thank you!

Nice clean and well appointed property - also AC worked well and it was cool

This house was very clean and well appointed. Also, the air conditioner worked well and kept the house nice and cool while it was very warm outside. The information in the listing about parking is misleading - it says there is a spot out back in the alley, which isn't true as the owner also rents the space about the garage in the alley as a VRBO and makes the spot out back that renters space. So you are left with street parking using parking permits since it's in the university district and on Tue you can't park on the street at all due to street cleaning, or you'll be towed. When I raised with the owner that I wasn't getting what I paid for and the listing was misleading, he copped a bit of an attitude and told me I could stay at a hotel and pay $30/night for parking! Also, the door code that was provided by the VRBO notification email at check-in (and it's also in the VRBO listing once you get to check-in day) was wrong and we couldn't get in when we arrived. Fortunately the manager responded pretty quickly to our message and gave us the correct number - but what if we'd arrived at midnight.... Anyway, these two things were annoying given the amount we paid, but otherwise the house was clean, comfortable and cool in the Montana summer!
