A truly wonderful property on the Gallatin River. The staff were very friendly. Moved us to a riverside room at no extra charge for our two nights. Bartender was great. Dinner was excellent. And they have amazing wine list. The place offers the Montana Big Sky feel. Would definitely return.

If you are looking for a beautiful room with a fireplace, and a bustling river view, this is the place. Oh, and the restaurant is five stars.
Adam, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice rustic resort. Two queen beds are separated by a door which is nice. Not fancy but very clean. Very nice responsive staff. Great included hot breakfast with enough options for most to be happy. Went for skiing. Loved the hot tub. Beautiful spot and likely even more beautiful in warmer weather. Walls a bit on the thin side but comfortable beds.
