Welcome to A River Runs Through It!
Welcome to this three-level mountain home sitting right on the Gallatin River with dramatic views of Storm Castle just outside. Step out the door, take a few steps, and you're in the perfect position to cast a line, or settle into a chair by the fire pit with your morning coffee in hand. This stretch of river is a stage for the valley's wildlife, and you never quite know what experiences await you.
Walk inside to be met with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Storm Castle rock cliffs of the Gallatin Canyon showing off like a piece of art. The kitchen is built for a full house with double ovens, a farmhouse sink, and ample counter space for everyone to pitch in. Just off the kitchen, is a large, cozy sofa facing the wood-burning stove, making the perfect location to slow down and truly enjoy the scenery outside. Retreat to the primary suite where you will find a king bed, an ensuite bath, and a private door straight out onto the balcony.
Wander upstairs to find a wonderful space for the kids to hang out and have a blast. Play shuffleboard together while watching the game on the TV. With ample seating on the couch, or the tables, including a table with an arcade game, there is plenty to do for everyone. Down the hallway you'll find two twin beds with plenty of storage for clothing and souvenirs. The bedroom comes with two more twin beds, and a twin-over-queen bunk, each providing their own storage space as well. Don't miss the ensuite bathroom with a large soaking tub, walk-in shower, and dual vanities; enough space for the whole floor to enjoy.
Head downstairs for a quiet space with its own living room and kitchenette. One bedroom matches the primary with a king bed, walk-in, tile shower, a soaking tub and two vanities. This room is finished with direct access to the private hot tub right outside on the patio. The fifth bedroom is equipped with a queen bed and bathroom with a walk-in shower. The whole downstairs area is set up for adults to get away and wind down after a long day of creating life long memories.
Outside is where this place truly lives and the real experiences come to life. The main-level balcony stretches along the whole side of the house, with a table for eight and sun chairs scattered for lazy mornings, or winding down with the sound of the river and views of the mountain you won't want to look away from. Downstairs, the private hot tub waits on the patio for you to slip in and soak under the stars. When you follow the rock path down toward the water, you'll find a grand fire pit right on the riverbank, with room enough for everyone to gather as the Gallatin runs on beside you.
Our Exclusive Sapphire Collection:
Some vacations are good. This one is unforgettable.
This home was hand-picked for one reason: it is exceptional. The design, the location, the finishes, the amenities, every single detail has been held to the highest standard. Nothing was left to chance, and nothing will disappoint.
When you arrive, you will find two plush Stay Montana robes waiting for you, homemade Ella Cookies on the counter, and a selection of locally made Montana candies ready to enjoy. Because the best Montana vacations do not start when you find something to do. They start the moment you walk through the door.
This is a home that takes care of you.
Montana is known as The Treasure State, home to some of the rarest sapphires in the world. The Yogo sapphire, found only here, is coveted for one simple reason: there is nothing else like it. Neither is this home.
Rare. Refined. Entirely worth it.
Book it before someone else does.
Winter
Big Sky Resort is the biggest skiing in America, and it earns that title every single year. With 5,800 skiable acres, 4,350 feet of vertical drop, and an average of 400+ inches of snowfall annually, it delivers for every level of skier and rider. When you are ready to step off the slopes, the historic Lone Mountain Ranch has 85+ kilometers of groomed Nordic trails through the wilderness, voted the #1 cross-country ski resort in North America. Beyond that, Yellowstone National Park, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, dog sledding, ice fishing, and world-class spa experiences are all within easy reach.
Summer
The mountains do not slow down when the snow melts. Within minutes you have world-class fly fishing, river rafting, golf, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and zip-lining at your doorstep. Follow the scenic Gallatin River along historic Highway 191 and you are at the west entrance of Yellowstone National Park in just 45 minutes.
