Whether your adventure needs space for the whole family or just a private get away from it all, this is the last stop…literally the end of the road. The deck of the main home and large living room faces the south with uninterrupted spectacular views of the mountains and national forest. The only pass through traffic to worry about here consists of birds, deer, elk, etc. and as you are on the lookout for wildlife you will soon realize what we already know....No need to go anywhere once you’re here. Hit the grocery store on the way, bring your favorite beverages, snacks and meals because this home and its surrounding areas will hold you tight in the best ways possible. From this home you can literally walk out the door and on to the national forest floor for a walk, hike, or snowshoe. Have a fire- indoor or outdoor! Pre-order a smores basket and we will have it waiting for you in the home. WiFi allows you to be connected but please note you are remote so the connection is not what you will find in urban areas.  Perhaps you want to pretend there is no cell service, but we have that too!

The Neighborhood:

Red Lodge, nestled in the foothills of the Beartooth Mountains, is a wonderful place to visit if you are looking for family fun, a place to touch the wild, or just a chance to let your hair down. Whether you are wearing Birkenstocks or cowboy boots, you will find something to do here. (Although downtown is paved and we even have sidewalks, Jimmy Choos are probably not a great idea!)



In winter the road ends here. Downhill skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice skating, sledding and sleigh riding are just the short list of activities that you can do when visiting us.



In summer we revel in the Beartooth Pass opening. We are only 68 miles from Yellowstone Park, but plan on a good two hours` drive as the “Pass” is stunning in high mountain vistas, rocky cliffs, and jeweled lakes. The Custer National Forest is a haven for wildlife including elk, moose, mountain goats, big horn sheep, bears (black and grizzly), mountain lions and wolves. Golden marmots are often seen dashing across the trails. Golden and bald eagles often visit our area, as well as sandhill cranes and blue herons.

Red Lodge, Montana is a rural community that does offer internet and cell service throughout most geographic areas but, some locations are completely void of any internet or cell service. In town and within a 3-5 mile radius of downtown you will enjoy solid cell signal but during times when our population increases due to events, celebration (such as the Fourth of July), or emergency situations such as a wildfire you will notice that these online and cellular services slow down and sometimes, they can slow down to the point where you have to wait to place a call. We can’t do anything to help in these situations, so we encourage people to enjoy the freedom of being “unplugged” and to be patient.
