This is the best VRBO stay I have ever experienced. Everything was clean and in good condition all the amenities were available at the unit. Communications with the owner were pleasant and very helpful. If you are ever in Fort Smith Montana, this is the place to stay.
Really nice base of operations for our three days of fishing on the Bighorn. Kitchen has everything you need for meal prep. Great for two, might be a little tight for three…
We have been staying here a few years now and have always been happy. We gotten to know the folks across the street and enjoy seeing them on our visits.
The Fly Side was a perfect setup for what my friend and I needed for our week in Fort Smith. Clean, comfortable and in a great location for our floats. We met several of our neighbors and they were all very nice and helpful.The owner/host was awesome, accommodating our request for an early check in and answering all of our questions promptly. Only issue, which was minor, was the insects. Had numerous bees and stink bugs in the bedroom and kitchen each day. Not a huge deal for us.Would def stay there again
Our family stayed in this cozy rental. It had all we needed. The only request would be for an A/C unit in the bedroom with the larger bed. Linens were great, bed was comfy, and kitchen had all we needed.

Thanks Myron! It was a real pleasure hosting your group. Come see us again!
Place was exactly what we needed and was setup with all of the amenities needed for a successful week of fishing the Big Horn. Several Fly Shops are within walking distance and the theme of the house really sets the mood for the stay! Highly recommended!
Great place to stay in Fort Smith! This unit has everything you need and is always spotless. We have rented several times and we will continue to go back. Thank you!
We really enjoyed staying at the duplex during our recent duck hunting/fishing trip on the Bighorn. The properties are nicely apportioned, clean, and well-stocked with all of the essentials. The owners were extremely communicative and responded quickly to any questions we had as we planned our trip. We'll certainly be back on down the road!
Everything was great! Please check the address listing. In one spot it says the address is 119 D street which is wrong. On another page you have it listed correctly. Other than that, all was fine.
We had a great time hiking and fishing around Bighorn Canyon and River. Saw a bear in the side yard of the house and other wildlife. Gayle and Carla sent us a message and picture about the bear too letting us know there was bear spray under sink. Enjoyed our stay very much!
We are glad you enjoyed the property. Come stay with us again and give us a shot at that 5th star! Appreciate the stay!
