Local Attractions
Getaway to the Last Best Place.
Get away. Not just to the mountains. But get away to the Bitteroot Valley of Western Montana.
Bitterroot Valley
Local Attractions
Fun and recreation available here in Montana are limited only by one’s imagination … whitewater rafting, hiking trails, mountain biking, hunting, swimming, star gazing, ATV, or photography …
Horseback riding is available a short distance away, as well as whitewater rafting. Many trails will take the hiker into mountain lakes or mountain peaks. There are also ATV and Snowmobile trails.
We would be happy to assist our guests in arranging for locally available day activities or to make recommendations on where to go and what to do. The Bitterroot Valley Chamber has a Calendar of Events to see what’s happening during your visit. If you are seeking solitude, the quietness is perfect for rest and relaxation, a good book, or writing that novel.
