Walk out the front door onto your private deck overlooking beautiful Indian Bay on Flathead Lake. Stroll across a manicured grassy lawn to your private beach and dock and have a seat on your patio. Enjoy a game of bocce or volleyball on that nice big lawn later. In the evening build a fire in the firepit and roast some s'mores. Tomorrow you could go hiking in Glacier Park, only 1.5 hours away. That is, unless the lake is really smooth, in which case you may take a boat tour of some of Flathead Lake's miles (30 miles long-10-15 wide), then have a picnic on Wildhorse Island, just across the bay.

When it's time for bed, take your choice. The master suite has a king bed, views of the lake and a large bathroom with walk-in closet. The guest room is cozy with a queen sized bed and fluffy duvets. It adjoins a large bathroom. The upstairs is family or kid heaven. It has a king bed plus 3 twin beds with private bath and room to spread out. Our home sleeps 9 very comfortably.

The kitchen is modern and fully equipped with lots of room for multiple cooks. The granite counter and hickory flooring give it a cabin look with a modern touch. Two seating areas adjoin the kitchen. One faces the lake and the other wraps around a custom stone fireplace. You can dine informally at the large bar or more formally at our antique oak dining table. Then, of course, there's the outside which has numerous seating and dining options.

Park you boat at the dock, pull up a chair and have a fabulous vacation! It's a wonderful retreat in a very special place. Over five generations of our family have made memories here. We all call it home, even when we don't live here. You will too.

(Please keep in mind that the winter season is beautiful as well. Not a more peaceful setting anywhere with the option of snow skiing at Blacktail 1 hour away and Whitefish Mountain resort 1.5 hours.)
