THE FLATHEAD LAKE RETREAT — A PRISTINE, ARTFULLY CRAFTED WATERFRONT HOME WITH PRIVATE PEBBLE BEACH & HOT TUB

Set on Flathead Lake with 150 ft of gently sloping shoreline, this thoughtfully designed retreat features stunning lake views, an open floor plan, custom woodwork, and curated designer touches. Enjoy cozy bedrooms, the loft and bunk space, a lakeside hot tub, private beach, and evenings by the waterfront campfire.

The space
Comfort is paramount. From mindful mattress selection to cushy outdoor furniture, every detail has been thoughtfully considered to create an exceptional guest experience.

Bedrooms:
A queen bedroom on the main level sits across from a bathroom with shower. A king bedroom is tucked away on the lower level with a peekaboo lake view and a full tub/shower bath.

Also on the lower level, is a family/TV room with a bunk space. Sliding glass doors lead to a screened porch—perfect for bug-free dining and lounging.


The kitchen is the heart of the cabin, featuring a large island and beautiful lake views. You'll have everything you need to cook as much—or as little— as you like, including an espresso maker, French press, coffee grinder, KitchenAid mixer, blender, quality knives and well-stocked cookware.

The dining table looks out to lake and mountain views, and seats six (with four additional seats at the island). The living room is a cozy space to unwind, with a gas fireplace and comfy sectional.

We provide s’mores makings and firewood for the campfire— perfect for roasting marshmallows and stargazing by the water.

Our swimming beach is pebbly and ideal for launching watercraft. The bay is shallow and protected from big wake, with a gently sloped swimming area (about 4 feet at the deepest point), making it great for little swimmers.

Guests are welcome to use our outdoor gear, including kayaks, paddleboards, life jackets, and a canoe. You'll also have two docks for your boat, plus plenty of outdoor seating on the deck overlooking the lake and near the water. You'll love our peaceful bay!

Please note: Flathead Lake is fed by melting snowpack, so water levels vary by season. Levels typically recede in October/November and begin to refill in April/May. During late spring, there may be little to no water directly in front of the house, although the lake and mountains are still within view. While our bay remains a tranquil getaway year-round, we want guests to be aware that water levels change with the seasons.

We look forward to sharing this special little piece of heaven with you!

Neighborhood highlights

Our quaint little town of Lakeside, just 4 miles to the north, has great options for coffee, breakfast, baked goods, casual and fine dining, and a grocery store.

If you decide to venture up north, Whitefish Mountain Resort offers fun outdoor activities for all ages: zipline, alpine slides, gondola rides, mountain biking, huckleberry picking, and hiking.

The picturesque little town of Whitefish boasts fun little shops and great dining.

For all of the basics, Kalispell is a 30 minute drive away. Target, Costco, bigger grocery stores, library, etc.

Bigfork, a pretty 30 minute drive around the top of Flathead Lake, is a cute village full of art shops, local theatre, and great dining options.

Last but not least, Glacier National Park is a must-see. It is difficult to describe how stunning and awe inspiring it is...if you've never been, you'll have to make the 50-minute drive to see for yourself. So much to explore. Spectacular hiking. Stop at Eddie's for a scoop of huckleberry ice-cream on the shores of Lake McDonald.

We look forward to sharing our little slice of heaven with you and hope you make some good memories!
