About this apartment rental
This cute apartment is centrally located 1 block from Missoula's river-front trails, 3 blocks from downtown & the University of Montana campus, convenient to the I-90 interstate exchange, and within an easy walk to Missoula's best coffee shops, restaurants, theaters, and music venues.
We like that we don't have to drive to hike - our neighborhood is at the confluence of the North Hills, Clark Fork River, Crazy Canyon, Mount Sentinel, and Mount Jumbo trail systems - or to fish - we're just off the confluence of Rattlesnake Creek and the Clark Fork River where the native cutthroat congregate. We are an easy walk over either of the two pedestrian footbridges, a short river stroll to happy hour or concerts at the Top Hat & Wilma, and a (too!) close for a cone of ice cream at either Big Dipper or Sweet Peaks. This location also boasts spectacular views of Mount Jumbo, Mount Sentinel, and the Hellgate Canyon.
This apartment is part of a duplex - we live upstairs and are available for advice about what to do and where to go. If you decide to book this property, you will enter through the main door that leads to a small entry way. Our door is on the left and yours is on the right. This keeps it easy should you have any questions or concerns.

Very clean property with all the amenities. Owner was very accommodating to any requests made. Out of owners control is that Missoula has train noise at night.

As part of a road trip through Montana and National Parks in the US and Canada, we stopped in Missoula. The apartment was cute and the location was convenient. We had a great stay.

This place was perfect for us. We were in town for the Missoula half marathon and needed quick access to the college where the 4am shuttle was leaving from - this was just 5 min away. The duplex is super cute, clean, and well furnished. We’d definitely stay here again next time we’re in town!

We loved this place! The set up was perfect for us. It is clean, the location great and the host (Meg) was very accommodating, answered our questions quickly.
We were in town for the 5k run. We were 5 minutes away from the start 😊
We hope to stay again in the future.

Great place, nice and clean. Very basic which o liked. My cousin got married and spending time with family so I didn’t stay there a whole lot. Last day I went to clack coffee company which is really close to property nice walk towards downtown. A really cool farmers market Saturday morning which I enjoyed a lot. No complaints. I have an Apple TV and my house so all the appliances I was used to.

Every traveler has bags and coats. We shouldn't have to search for a place to put our bags off the floor. We all have bathroom stuff, couldn't all fit on back of toilet no where to put but on the floor. Shower mat kind of slippery. Towel had stain. Living room chairs were horribly uncomfortable. Couch was good but couldn't get the tv working well. Didn't care for dead animal motif.
Thank you for the beer by the way:)
You might try pretending your a traveler. Come in carrying heavy bags, needing a comfy place to sit.
Slept good, wind was exciting, train sounds were comforting.

This property was nothing short of amazing. It was clean, well kept, provided everything we needed. It was perfect walking distance from the University. Access and instructions were easy to follow. The bed was so comfortable and a sound machine/ear plugs were provided which was so thoughtful! It was a busy weekend in Missoula but we did not have any issues with parking. So cute and cozy, we will definitely be using this place again in the future!

The Jefferson House was the perfect place and the best location just for me! It was quaint, cozy, clean and convenient for my first trip to Montana and my first VRBO! I choose this place because I was doing the Missoula Half-Marathon, I was traveling solo and everything was close and walkable (i.e, restaurants, race start/finish, coffee, etc.) and the airport was only about 12 mins away.
I had no issues with the house and barely used anything that was available because I stayed out most of the time. The guidelines and information provided for the house were on point and I appreciated them. It's important to me whether or staying in a hotel or someone's home to abide by their rules, keep your surroundings tidy and be a good guest.
The owner Megan stayed in contact with me and answered any questions I had, but I wish I had more time to chat with her because she was truly the sweetest person. Thank you for allowing me to stay at the beautiful Jefferson House!
If you are looking for the perfect location for a trip to Missoula, I highly recommended the Jefferson House.

The apartment is located close in to Downtown Missoula. It was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable! There were a couple of things I wish I had known. I did not bring slippers so the stone/concrete floor was quite cold. I would have loved a small dresser or cubby for my folded items but made use of the extra hangers in the closet. There was a discrepancy between VRBO and the PDF related to parking. VRBO said park in the back. I truly love the home and hope to stay there again. Next time I will be more prepared. Also, please check the TV instructions. The Apple TV must be new? Thank you for your thoughtfulness. We were not missing anything we needed.

We loved the location and the cute duplex. Pleasant walking distance to downtown and the University. The kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with local craft beer and excellent snacks! Then on our second day, Meg and Anders had the misfortune of a minor dryer fire on their side of the duplex. The smoke caused us and them to leave. Meg and Anders insisted they put us up in a really great hotel nearby and right in downtown. They covered the sizable hotel bill and couldn't have been more gracious. Absolutely over-the-top incredible. Again, INCREDIBLE.

We had a wonderful stay. The listing was exactly as described. It was cozy and well planned out. There were some very nice touches our host included, that made it even more personal. The location to downtown was perfect for walking, which we did several times a day. The location was also great for drives to see the Bitterroot Valley and Seeley Lake. We enjoyed our stay and especially the closeness to downtown. Thank you!

My husband and I flew into Missoula to help our UMT daughter move into her new apartment. Meg was completely helpful in giving recommendations and allowing our daughter to spend one night in the apartment on the futon. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the bathtub was a welcome sight after hours of moving. We especially appreciated the white noise machine and ear plugs placed next to the bed, in case of the nearby train passage. (We found the white noise machine to be especially helpful.) Overall, a wonderful stay.
