Quirky fun place with EVERYTHING we needed but the 5th bed

Fun, artistic, quirky place with everything you need! Fully stocked kitchen, nice hot tub, robes and tons of fun spots to sit and enjoy the surroundings. The 5th/6th sleeping spot is an odd tiny basement bedroom that costs extra though so only bring 4. The beds are soft and luxurious for those four though!

Great for couples, fun decor

Easy <2 minute walk to a nearby pizza parlor and bar/steakhouse, with a convenience store just up the street. House was clean and Gwen was attentive to any messages we sent. You can tell she put a lot of effort into making the home fun and inviting. Would definitely stay here again!

Quiet with quirky decor

Hot tub was wonderful. Couch was comfy. Quiet area twenty minutes from MSU. Our bedroom did not have a door which felt a little awkward. We enjoyed dinner at The Jump restaurant nearby.

comfortable and accommodating

Met our host Gwen when we arrived because she happened to be outside. She lives next door part of the year. Very welcoming and quick to respond if we needed her, but never infringed on our privacy. Loved the eclectic decor with something new to see in every room and on every wall. The house had everything we needed and very comfortable. Looking forward to our next stay.

This hostess is the bestest! I haven’t used Vrbo before and she helped me thru the process in soooo many ways. The house and grounds were perfect for family from 7 states to gather in the days around a local wedding. The sack outside was perfect for our evening gatherings and the sofa circle in the living room managed us all!I wish this home was in any location I might visit. It was sooooo me!

First and for most this place is BEAUTIFUL!!! She has so many cool things to look at. Every time you look around you'll notice some neat little trinkets that you didn't see before. A lot of vintage things. I LOVED the outdoor areas. There are so many flowers! I long for a yard like hers! The furniture and beds were very comfortable! We didn't get a chance to sit in the hot tub, but it was a plus to have available. OH! The stain glass throughout the house is very delightful! I wish I had some in my home! If I come back to the area, I would love to stay here again! The host is very accommodating and supplies almost everything you need! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Our private museum with a hot tub

Gwen was amazing and we loved our stay. It was so nice being able to stay away from the Bozeman traffic and take the back way into town every day. This house is a diamond in the rough. I could have spent an entire day looking at all the different art and books throughout the house. Hot tub under the stars every night, and Stacey's bar for some great live music and local flare. We Will definitely request to stay here on all our Bozeman visits!

Week Stay

The property was a great location about 15-20 minute drive to Bozeman and It was about a 40-minute drive to Big Sky. The open house feel was relaxing and the outdoor patio area was a nice place to relax. It was a little warm in the evenings with no A/C so important to use the extra fan. The decor and atmosphere were enjoyable.

About the host

Hosted by Gwen Allen

Host profile image
I grew up in Bozeman Mt. Kindergarten through collage, I have also lived in Kallispell Mt., birthplace of my oldest daughter. I spent 4 glorious years in Paradise Valley Mt. and also resided in Castle Rock Colorado where my other two children were born.
I have been in the antique business for the last 15 years and have now had the opportunity to head south for the winter. I have family nearby who will be taking care of my property.

Why they chose this property

I moved to Gallatin Gateway because I just wanted to live a less hectic life, and living just out side of the Bozeman donut has provided me with a quiet country living yet close to city life. The property is located on a half acre.
I bought the house in 2006 and did an almost complete remodel, I was able to incorporate my sense of style and design, and many elements of antiques.

What makes this property unique

I love the space and freedom this area allows. I have a tipi in the yard, horses next door and the night time sky and soaking in the hot tub is wonderful entertainment. The Gallatin River is a short walk, about a block. And there is great food less than a block away.
