2 nights / 3 Bedrooms / Sleeps up to 8

On the mountain, close to town, near the rivers, and within an hour of numerous hiking trails, Downing Mountain Lodge is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom log chalet built in the round with sixteen sides. The cozy home has multiple amenities and is hands down the most amazing location on 80 acres of open forest and wildflower fields adjacent to the Bitterroot National Forest. Located near hiking, fishing, boating, skiing, biking, climbing, and at the end of a private mountain road, the lodge is as private as you can get while still being close to town. With panoramic vistas out of all windows, the mountain house is located 2000 feet above the Bitterroot Valley, and from May to June, the lands are covered in wildflowers!
