About the host

Hosted by David and Brenda Rowell

Host profile image
We have lived in Montana for several decades. We were drawn to Seeley Lake by the years of visiting here for the myriad outdoor sports available. We enjoy helping people experience life fully, so we decided to buy a property here in 2020 as a vacation rental. We originally owned a smaller vacation rental in Seeley. We sold that one and bought this larger one to accommodate more guests, as well as a home for ourselves.

Our goal is to make your stay as special as possible for you with your own private entrance. The home is set up to provide privacy for you and your group, but we are available to help, if needed. When you leave, we hope you will take with you the joy that resides on this property!

Why they chose this property

The beautiful Seeley Lake Vacation Home is secluded on a ridge, but very close to the resort town of Seeley Lake, the gateway to unlimited scenic outdoor activities in mountains, lakes, creeks and rivers, trails and more.

What makes this property unique

What makes this property unique: There is an awesome view of the forest and majestic mountains right from the home. The best view can be taken in year-round from the deck the hot tub is on. This Seeley Lake Vacation Home is very close to all the reasons people come to this area of Montana for! Even the deer in the yard will make you feel very welcome and special!

Guests often comment how nice the people of Seeley Lake are. The service in the several restaurants and stores makes you feel like a valued guest of the area. From the incredible food at Lindey's Prime Steakhouse, to the family-oriented Chicken Coop, or breakfast and lunch at Pops, and several other food venues you will be treated as special guests.

Feel free to use the picnic table for a family meal during the warmer seasons, or enjoy the warmth of the dining table inside.

Rovero's Ace Hardware store is open late and has much more than just hardware. You will find seasonal sporting goods, RV accessories, fuel, and even hot foods. There are local sports machine rentals. Kurt's Polaris is a well managed dealership. There are plenty of business owners, including us, who can give you ideas for your adventures.

During the summer, walk up and get in line for the very popular Ice Cream Place. There are several other quaint food venues and tourist shops for you to discover in Seeley Lake. Most of the shops can be walked to from one parking spot in town. Town is only two or three minutes drive from the beautiful ridge that holds the Whitetail View and the larger Bears Den!
