About this cabin rental
We have updated the cabin in 2021. This historic hand-hewn Log Studio Cabin Rental nestled in a 5 acre organic cherry orchard with outstanding Flathead Lake views. Fully restored with antique furnishings. The cabin is located 15 miles south of Bigfork. The cabin is not located on the water, but lake access is conveniently located about 1/2 mile away at the beautiful Yellow Bay State Park. Designed for 2 people, this 400 square foot log cabin rental has a queen log bed.
The great Covered Porch has rustic log posts that frame the incredible Flathead Lake and Wild Horse Island views. It is a short drive to the Yellow Bay State Park, public beach and boat ramp. Peaceful and private in the Flathead Valley of Northwest Montana.
Built in 1932, this log cabin was hand hewn from trees taken to clear the surrounding cherry orchards. Built as a homesteader's cabin when the east lake shore was a very remote location with few families living at Yellow Bay, and the only access was via a 2-track dirt road.
The cabin has been completely restored, creating a warm cozy retreat with the charm of a by-gone era. Retaining the original logs, floors, windows and aged patina were very important, while adding all the modern amenities one would expect.
The cabin has a queen size log bed, couch (not pullout) and wood stove. Fully equipped kitchen & bath, and a covered porch with gas barbecue overlooking Flathead Lake. There is no tv or phone, which suits most guests just fine. We now have high speed STARLINK WIFI, and cell service is available.
We hope that you enjoy this little piece of Montana history. It is a very special place to us and to all our visitors from around the world.

My husband and I journeyed to Montana to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. This little cabin is just what we were looking for. The location was perfect for day trips to Glacier National Park, kayaking on the Swan River and exploring Flathead Lake. The accommodations were simple and adequate for two of us. We enjoyed grilling on the porch while soaking up the beautiful sunsets on the lake and mountains. Honestly, the cabin is precious and comfortable and relaxing and provides just the right atmosphere to unplug and unwind. Definitely recommend- 5/5!!!

It was perfect. If we are to be a little picky…the mattress comfotrtable but but bed rocks when spouse moves; better to have sprinklers come on early in the morning as we got wet loading up at 9 this morning; old coffee grounds left in maker and not washed. Overall though we loved it!!! Thank you.

As dog lovers, we're meticulous about our dogs and cleaning up after them. Would be more plesant if neighbor to the south showed same interest and respect. We ran out of doggie bags cleaning up after their elderly dog so as not to be wrongly blamed. Others may not be as kind.

It is the perfect cabin, cozy in every way. The bed was comfortable and the wood burning stove was the best. Not too far from Big Fork for dining. Beautiful views and a relaxing environment; what more could you ask for? We hope to return for our next getaway!

What a great place! This property was perfect and what a place to get away from the busy life and enjoy nature, mountains, lakes and all its beauty. We were only an hour away from Glacier National Park which is where we wanted to spend most of our time, but the drive was perfect. In the evenings, we sat on the porch having a cocktail soaking up the views. I highly recommend this place to a couple looking for an exciting and relaxing time away. Thank you to the hosts! Bruce

Just what we needed
Just what we needed. After a few days bicycling on the road to the sun we looked forward to a relaxing environment. We surely found that at the flat head lake cabin. The beautiful historic cabin amongst the fruit trees overlooking the lake was really just what we needed

The cabin location is great. Bigfork is a great town with hiking and biking trails, shops and eateries. Its a short drive to GNP. The property is perfect, quiet with great view of Flathead lake. Very relaxing. The cabin has everything you need for a getaway. We fixed breakfast each morning and enjoyed the view off the front porch. George was very responsive when we needed him. Highly recommend this cabin!
