Photos and Description of the Flathead Lake vacation house rental

Welcome to beautiful Flathead Lake - truly one of the last best places. Our home sits on Finley Point's protected Skidoo Bay, with views of the beautiful Swan and Mission Mountains ranges. Just steps beyond the stone steps of the house is a perfect lake shore where (weather permitting) you'll see the sun rise each morning over the mountains. This home is a newly constructed craftsman style bungalow designed by one of Montana's most famous living architects with architectural inspiration from the famous Greene & Greene Pasadena classic homes. Natural materials, abundant with rock and stonework, prevail inside and out. The home itself sits on a single level - designed for maximum lake views throughout the house. In the winter, radiant heat throughout the house keeps the wood and stone floors warm to the touch. Two rock fireplaces will further warm and charm you. The great room features a 20' rock fireplace which backs to an outdoor courtyard with a separate fireplace for year-round use

Location


Beautiful Flathead Lake, a wonderful base for exploring Glacier National Park and Whitefish's Big Mountain ski area. Indian summer and the fall bring crisp blue skies, golden tamaracks and the smell of wood fires and fruit in the orchards. Perfect for relaxation and reading, walks in nature and quiet kayak journeys along Finley Point and the lake's islands - home to eagles and osprey, and the dramatic beauty of Montana after 'all of the crowds have gone'.

The beauty of the kitchen is highlighted by the 20' ceilings and trusses which extend across the great room. You can dine in the large dining room overlooking the courtyard and lake (featuring a custom alder table and chairs carved by Southwest Spanish Craftsmen of Santa Fe), or make yourselves comfortable outside under the expansive covered patio which overlooks the lake. The covered patio boasts an oversize Weber grill with side burner for full meal preparation al fresco!

Further details for this vacation house rental in Flathead Lake, Montana

This home provides the perfect vacation retreat in any season. In the summer, the possibilities are endless. Hiking, boating, golfing and swimming are just a few of the outdoor options. The nearby Polson Golf Course overlooks Flathead lake and is a terrific bargain with 9 holes of golf for $20. The Mission Mountain Golf Course in Ronan has breathtaking views of the Mission Mountains and is an equally good value. Proximity to Glacier National Park is excellent, with travel time to West Glacier of slightly over one hour. The fall and winter bring incredible beauty and solitude. As fall creeps in come October, leaves begin changing colors, temperatures cool, and the air is clean and pure. The fall season is treasured by the locals. Picture yourself sitting on an Adirondack chair with your coffee watching the loons skim the lake. Or take your kayak out for a scenic tour on the placid lake, quiet but for the birds.

Winter on the lake is surprising mild. But the surrounding mountains do get snow, and there are two terrific ski areas to enjoy - Blacktail and Big Mountain. Both are drive-and-return daily ski options. Winter is the perfect time to enjoy the snow and other recreation options, or just to get a fire going, curl up on the leather sofa in the library and read one of the hundreds of books offered in the house. Or start a fire in the outdoor fireplace, bring out your hot chocolate, and watch the stars appear in the dark night. In the winter, four wheel drive is sometimes advisable as the roads on Finley Point and the long driveway down to the house can become icy. (We have it plowed when we can.) The house is configured for privacy, with the master wing separated from the guest wing by the kitchen, dining and great rooms, as well as the library. The master suite has a queen bed and French doors which swing open to the outdoor courtyard and fireplace.

The master suite's bathroom amenities include a double walk-in shower, a Japanese-style soaker tub for two, a large double vanity and a separate washer and dryer. The bathroom is fully trimmed in travertine stones and marble. The guest wing has three bedrooms, a large bathroom and a large laundry room equipped with efficient Bosch appliances. One of the guest rooms is a large room with a queen bed perfectly situated to overlook the dock and lake. The second guest room has four bunk beds, with a view to the woods and water. The third guest bed has two bunks and a double bed, with a view up toward the cherry orchard. The guest bathroom is large with double vanities as well as a double walk-in shower. This bathroom is also nicely appointed with travertine and stone floors, and a marble vanity. There is an additional half bath off of the dining room, with a unique polished stone sink with a wrought-iron pine cone pedestal, pine cone light sconces, and rock trim behind the vanity.
