About this property

Montana Log Home on Private Acreage with Mountain Views

Basin Creek Lodge is a one-of-a-kind property in the heart of Southwest Montana, 5 miles south of Butte.
This rustic and comfortable Montana log home is situated on 25 acres in a natural Montana setting. The house is perched atop a hill in the Basin Creek watershed, with 360 degrees of panoramic views. From every window you’ll see mountains, pine trees and aspens, and pastures. From the loft deck view the sparkling lights of nearby Butte.
The city of Butte and surrounding southwest Montana offer a wide variety of recreational activities, but we bet you’ll want to spend plenty of time just sitting on the expansive deck, enjoying the view, listening to the birds and the wind in the quaking aspens, and soaking in the peace. The house is a quarter mile up a private drive from Basin Creek Road, on a dead-end dirt road. (You don't need 4WD in the summer, but the road can be a little bumpy).
Explore the property’s rugged 25 acres or enjoy a game of horseshoes.
The house has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths with room to sleep 8 in bedrooms, or up to 12 when you utilize the sofabeds/rollaways in the downstairs family room.
The spacious country kitchen comes well equipped with cookware and dishes and all the appliances and utensils you’ll need to cook for the gang.
Town is just 5 miles away, where you can buy groceries or any other supplies and enjoy a variety of dining and attractions.

Beautiful Butte
Five stars for the whole stay except the road up to the cabin. A bit much for a small car. The rain washed ruts were pretty deep.

Great Views
Great place to stay and experience Montana for the first time. Close to town and not too far to explore Yellowstone.

Amazing retreat home
Gorgeous location within just a few miles from town. Quiet with amazing views all around. The log cabin was updated with a grand deck, floors and bathrooms - came with everything needed. We loved it so much we extened our stay as we did not want to leave! My boys loved to explore around the area and it was close to mountain bike trails just down the road. Sits at the top of a hill, so need to take it easy on the drive up.

Perfect place for some peace
This property is ideal for anyone who needs to rest and reset. From morning coffee on the deck while watching wildlife to s'mores in the fire pit at night, we could not have asked for a better stay!

Spacious cabin with a view
This home was perfect for four couples. It provided comfortable areas for us to be together, yet private rooms for alone time. We felt surrounded by nature because of the big and abundant windows. We found everything we needed to cook with and eat our meals. The huge dining room table was useful for more than just eating. The host checked in on us and was very accessible.

About the host

Hosted by Ellen Griffith

Host profile image
We (Marc and Ellen Griffith) have owned the property since 1999.
Over the years, we've added some upgrades, and repaired some things that needed fixin'. We live in Oregon now, but this place is our little slice of Montana. We're happy we can share it with you until the day comes that we retire and move back "home."

Why they chose this property

My (Ellen's) family built the house the 1980s. When I was 14 years old, my dad and I hand-peeled all the Montana logs with antique drawknives that he bought at a garage sale. The logs and cedar walls are from the Plains area in northwest Montana, and the kitchen cabinets were made in Hamilton.
