About the host

Hosted by Kathryn Price

Host profile image
My parents, David and Carla Shaffer built the Montana Homestead in the spring of 1977. Providing a home for their eleven children, they had a large garden, raised cows, goats, pigs and even pastured horses for the neighbors. David was a local teacher of mathematics at the junior high, high school and community college. Carla was a stay at home mom and housewife, teaching her children the responsibilities of being hard workers, good work ethic and overall a good citizen in the community. David is now retired and Carla passed away April 2019.

To keep the Homestead is the family, David sold the house to his daughter, Kathryn Price, a life long resident of Columbia Falls. Together with her husband, Darin and their four children they are continuing the family tradition of bringing families together in a comfortable environment while enjoying the many activities that NW Montana has to offer. Renovations have begun to modernize the Homestead without losing its rustic appeal. A large barn is planned for the near future to also host events on site to include family reunions, scrapbook retreats and weddings.

Why they chose this property

This family-friendly property is larger than it seems in the pictures and provides plenty of room to roam through the pasture or wooded walking trails. We offer seasonal outdoor games for group activities and the cabin has lots of room to accommodate large groups. Close to town and amenities you'll be pleasantly surprised at all we have to offer. Plenty of room for everyone in a large group.

What makes this property unique

The Montana Homestead "the cabin" has a special spirit, that you will experience during your stay with us. The cabin is meant for re-grounding yourself, encourages putting down the electronics and spending time with the ones you love in a comfortable, fun environment for everyone.
