Such a great spot for a family weekend! Julie went way above and beyond with communication, kindness and her home is the perfect place for a family weekend. Very clean, so nice and plenty of room for two families in town to bike and hike for the weekend. We loved the themed rooms and details; clearly, so much love and thought went into this home and we had an amazing time. We’ll definitely be back!

Lookout pass skiing

Unique rooms and themes throughout. The kids loved the llama room in particular. Nice kitchen that is well stocked. Quick check in/out process and good communication. It is a couple miles outside the town of Wallace and very quiet for those who apppreciate the peace, but just a short drive up to the ski area and other recreational activities. We had a great teip and look forwaed to staying again.

Thanksgiving

We had a absolute wonderful time staying here for our Thanksgiving weekend. Ended up with a larger group then expected but had plenty of room to spread out and visit with each other. Played lots of card n dice games just had a relaxing time. Also enjoyed driving by the ghost town of Burke and hit all the little shops in Wallace for fun Christmas gifts!

Great place with 5 bedrooms

3 generations of one family found that this house was a really fun place to stay. With careful coordination having only 1 bathroom worked out well. This place is fully equipped. The owner is great, really great to work with. We recommend this place!
