About the host
Hosted by Jenny
I’m Jenny, your host at This Old Frat House in Missoula, Montana. My family has called Montana home for seven generations, and hospitality runs in our roots — from running historic cafés to welcoming travelers from all over the world.
I love sharing Missoula’s unique mix of mountains, rivers, and music with guests. When I’m not hosting, you’ll find me floating the Clark Fork, exploring local trails, or cheering on the Griz.
As your host, my goal is to make you feel both comfortable and connected. I’m always nearby in my upstairs loft apartment if you need anything, but I also respect your privacy. Whether you’re here for a game, a concert, or a quiet getaway, I’m excited to help you experience the best of Missoula.

Why they chose this property
We chose Missoula’s University District because it’s truly the heart of the city. This neighborhood blends the energy of campus life with the charm of tree-lined streets and historic homes. From our front door you can walk to University of Montana games, concerts, and lectures, or stroll just a few blocks to coffee shops, breweries, restaurants, and the artsy Hip Strip. Downtown Missoula is only minutes away, and the Clark Fork River with its walking trails and floating opportunities is right nearby.
What I love most is the balance this neighborhood offers. You’re steps from excitement, yet our backyard feels like a private retreat with hammocks, string lights, and deer wandering through. Add in free city buses that stop across the street, and it’s easy to explore without a car. It’s the perfect blend of convenience, community, and calm — everything that makes Missoula special.

What makes this property unique
What makes This Old Frat House stand out is its history, character, and location. Built in the 1930s as a fraternity house, it has been lovingly restored into a boutique stay that blends old-school charm with modern comfort. With three vertical levels, our unique setup lets guests enjoy the entire first floor privately while still knowing a host is nearby if needed. Few places offer that balance of independence and support.
The location is unbeatable — directly across from the University of Montana, steps from the Clark Fork River, and minutes from downtown. Guests often tell us it feels like the perfect mix of being right in the middle of the action yet able to retreat to a mellow backyard with hammocks, string lights, a fire pit, and even visiting deer.
Add in thoughtful touches like yoga mats, dry bags, Roku Smart TVs, and five-star hosting, and you get more than just a stay — you get a true Missoula experience you won’t find anywhere else.
