About this property

Restorative Retreat in Rocky Mountain West

Beautiful off the grid log home with large, light-filled central room with cathedral ceiling divided by fireplace into fully equipped kitchen/dining space and airy, living room. Bedroom #1 has a queen-sized bed and room for cots and/or cribs, a walk-in closet, and a full bath. Bedroom #2 has a queen size Murphy bed with a sliding door opening to the front deck. Bedroom #3 has two twin beds. An additional full bath is located between bedrooms #2 and #3. Lots of windows. Two decks, one in front and another in back open up to mountain views and fresh, clean air.

Solar-powered, off the grid, but with propane generator backup and wireless Internet to keep you connected when you need to be.

Private access to adjacent 2000+ acre-ranch with 3 miles of Landers Fork of the Blackfoot River, an 18-acre lake and a waterfall. The property includes a private back country grass airstrip and a hangar. The perfect spot for hiking, biking, fishing, horseback riding, birding, discovering wildflowers, stargazing, or just relaxing with a good book. Abundant wildlife, including cutthroat trout, deer, elk, moose, bear, fox, and other critters. Just 8 miles from the Blackfoot River, the celebrated blue-ribbon trout stream. Perfect location for exploring nearby Scapegoat Wilderness and Continental Divide Trail.

This property is located on land that wildlife considers home. Guests are expected to be respectful of all wildlife and take care while recreating in and around the house at Landers Fork. When leaving the property and heading out for a day of hiking, biking, or other activities, it is imperative that all guests carry bear spray. This product can be purchased at the local hardware store. Information on how to be safe in bear country will also be available.

We can help provide you with local contacats for horseback riding, yoga and massage, ly fishing and other activities if you wish. You will need to manage these reservations yourself.

Excellent comfort in the beauty of Montana
We had an amazing stay at the Big Dipper! The house itself was spectacular with wildlife right out your window! Clean and comfortable with plenty of space. Owners were very accommodating and quick to reply. We enjoyed a week or relaxation: hiking, fishing, day trip to Glacier NP. Mornings were spent watching wildlife come up in the yard and evenings counting shooting stars. The highlight of our year and would go back in a heartbeat!

Excellent choice
This was a super fun relaxing stay in an area full of rich American history. Watching the deer and enjoying the beautiful mountains & rivers - what’s more relaxing than that?

absolutely breathtaking!
We loved living off the grid for 4 days! We thoroughly enjoyed the house. We took full advantage of the lake and enjoyed a day of kayaking, took a day trip to Glacier National Park, amd took another day to stroll through Missoula which was fabulous! Valerie was an amazing host and gave us the complete tour of the house. We had a minor hiccup with the wifi and Marc made sure we were back up and running promptly as my husband and I needed to check on some work issues back home! We made many memories with our 4 kids to our first trip to Montana! ❤️❤️❤️

Relaxing Retreat
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the ranch. Valerie and Marc were more than helpful setting up our stay and making us feel welcome and comfortable. We had fun exploring old homesteads, hiking, biking and rowing in the private lake. The solitude and relaxation were much-needed and would love to return next year.
