Weekend in Missoula

Nice home in quiet neighborhood with easy access to town. Should not show or mention Hot tub that renters can’t use !! Otherwise a lot of space & rooms to relax & enjoy.
Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 30 May 2025
I’m sorry you were disappointed about the hot tub. The listing mentions prior to booking that it is for private use only. It seems necessary to mention it since it is right outside the window in plain view and access of the deck. To not mention it would be irresponsible. Unfortunately the upkeep (both time and expense) after each guest would be excessive. Keeping it private helps keep our rates affordable and our availability more flexible. I’m glad you enjoyed the rest of the home!

Comfortable and good location home.

It was perfect for the 6 adults. The only drawback was there isn’t a hand rail on the steps coming into the house or up to the main living area so it was an issue for 2 in our party.

Nice location, landscaping and comfortable home

4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms worked well for our group of 8. Nice outdoor deck, but due to weather we didn't get to use it. Host was very easy to communicate with and responded in a timely manner. We did have some confusion about the coffee in the morning as there were pods for the Kerig but wasn't sure if we could use those. We didn't use the kitchen as ate all our meals out.

Nice place for a weekend stay.

Very quiet neighborhood and deck was nice to have a drink on. It was a super warm weekend and the thermostat is programmed to be too warm for such warm summer nights. Since it was only two nights we didn't take the time to figure out how to keep in cooler during the middle of the night. I would recommend the property and would stay there again.

Nice place

The house was very nice and big enough to accommodate 9 people. Kitchen had everything we needed. Beautiful yard but was too dry to have a fire. Very quiet neighborhood. Distance away from everything is about 4 miles but not totally bad to get to! If you have elderly people it’s split level so must be able to navigate stairs.

A wedding with the family to remember

We had some difficulty getting in at first, but the cause was unavoidable. We had 8 adults and 1 3-year old and had plenty of room to accomplish everything we needed to. Our granddaughter had a great time running around and exploring things too. The house was well stocked with cooking needs, it was just like being at home away from home. Thanks so much!!

So nice and quiet

We absolutely loved the location and the quietness of this property. Sitting on the patio and being able to have windows open at night and no noise. One glaring safety measure was no handrail at the front steps. The first step was taller than normal. We are Grandparents so trying to step up with nothing to hold on to was very scary and dangerous. The same way in the house. Stairs to go upstairs had a hand rail. To go downstairs there was no hand rail and the stairs were carpeted. We would try holding on to the bottom of the railing from the stairs going upstairs so not to lose our balance. Over all the rest of the house was very nice and perfect for our large family. The shower door needs to be fixed, it would not slide right and could not get it completely closed. There was no towel rack in the downstairs bathroom. This house could be perfect with just a few updates with safety features, fix shower door, add towel rack. We would definitely rent this house again if we all went to Missoula again. Very enjoyable.

Response from VrboOwner on 4 July 2023
Thank you so much for the suggestions and the kind review! With us both having elderly parents who often come to visit, the safety of the front stairs or downstairs has never been brought to our attention, but now that we are aware, we will definitely look into some hand railing options! I did notice when I cleaned the shower after your visit that the roller was missing. We will repair that immediately. As for the towel rack, there is a bar on the back of the shower door to hang your towel on, but I will also add a hook to the outside of the shower. Thank you again for the great suggestions! We are so glad you enjoyed you stay!

About the host

Hosted by Traci Bauer

Host profile image
My husband and I both have deep roots in Missoula. We have owned this home for 15+ years. We are very active and love to boat, rzr ride, snowmobile, ski, Harley ride, travel etc! We love providing a nice, clean, comfortable place for guests to enjoy together as a group while attending weddings, reunions, concerts, golf, or just vacationing in our community. As we travel some ourselves, we appreciate being able to have a reasonably priced place for all our friends/family to be able to stay together, stretch out and relax.

Why they chose this property

This property provides a nice quiet neighborhood with lots of room to spread out and have your own space from other guests, yet has 2 separate large gathering rooms for those who want to spend time together. We have a larger yard that is excellent for outdoor activities and a great couple swing to sit and enjoy the great Montana weather!

What makes this property unique

Our home is near town, shopping, Griz stadium, Fort Missoula soccer fields, river access, downtown activities, wildlife, city life. We are truly are located in the center of the best of all worlds! We provide 4 large bedrooms, 2 family rooms with oversized smart tv's (netflix, amazon prime tv and a collection of children and family movies provided) We provide a large loaded toy box to keep the kids entertained. We also have a fully stocked oils and spices cabinet so there's no need to purchase those for cooking when you get here! We are located at the end of the cul de sac in a great quiet neighborhood where you can enjoy peace and nature.
