Photos and Description of the Whitefish vacation house rental
House, 4 Bedrooms, 2.5+ Baths, (Sleeps 8)

The Clayton House is the most charming home available in downtown Whitefish and has been featured on the front page of the Whitefish Pilot and in Flathead Living. It was built around 1903 to be Whitefish's 'Southside' First Presbyterian Church. In later years it was converted into a beautiful house and remains that way today. It has been beautifully restored offering refinished, original wood floors, spacious bedrooms with queen beds in each room with the large master suite being on the main floor. There is granite and tile in the bathrooms, a fantastic fully outfitted kitchen with granite countertops and high end appliances, a nice dining room with antique hand made table, and a mud room entering from the back of the house with storage for your gear. There is also a washer and dryer so you can come in after a hard day of playing and get your things cleaned right up.

The location is perfect being just one block to Whitefish hotspots such as Mambo's, Loulas, Pescado Blanco, Swift Creek Cafe, 2nd Steet Pizza, The White room Ski Shop, Glacier Cyclery, and just 2 blocks to Central Ave., the Farmer's Market, Gallery Nights, the SNOW bus pick up and two of Whitefish's best parks on the Whitefish River. It is also located just down the street from Whitefish Lake Golf Club, which also offers cross country skiing in the winter, and The Wave Fitness Center. Hop on your bike and it's just a short ride on the bike path along Whitefish River to City Beach at Whitefish Lake. You'll love being able to get to and from the shops, restaurants, and all that Whitefish has to offer with such ease.

We've tried hard to provide everything you could need to make your stay as comfortable as possible and we think you will thoroughly enjoy your time spent in this charming home. Come spend some quality time in a quality home right in the heart of Whitefish.

EXCELLENT RATES!!!

About Chap Godsey

MY FAMILY AND I HAVE LIVED IN WHITEFISH FOR 15 YEARS AND ARE HAPPY TO HAVE MADE IT OUR HOME. IT'S SUCH A WONDERFUL PLACE TO LIVE BUT ALSO A WONDERFUL PLACE TO VISIT. COME VISIT AND YOU PROBABLY WON'T WANT TO LEAVE EITHER.

HERE'S A PICTURE OF CLAYTON ENJOYING A DAY AT WHITEFISH MOUNTAIN RESORT.

Chap Godsey purchased this house in 2007
What makes this house unique

I THINK YOU WILL REALLY ENJOY THE LOCATION OF THIS HOUSE AND IT GIVES YOU A FEELING OF BEING PART OF THE TOWN. SINCE THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO DO HERE THAT WILL TAKE YOU IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS, IT'S NICE TO BE STAYING SOMEWHERE THAT'S CONVENIENT TO EVERYTHING. BEING ABLE TO WALK OUT OF YOUR DOOR AND STROLL THROUGH TOWN IS NOT ONLY CONVENIENT BUT QUITE ENJOYABLE.

YOU COULD CHOOSE TO STAY ON BIG MOUNTAIN, ON THE LAKE, OR A MAYBE A AT CABIN IN THE WOODS, BUT YOU WILL FIND THAT YOU HAVE TO DRIVE TO DO ANYTHING INCLUDING SIMPLE THINGS LIKE GROCERY SHOPPING, DINING OUT, ENJOYING THE TOWN'S NIGHTLIFE, ETC. WHEN YOU STAY AT THE CLAYTON HOUSE, YOU WILL NOT ONLY BE ENJOYING A CHARMING HOME THAT HAS A WONDERFUL HISTORY, BUT YOU WILL FIND IT EASY TO RELAX AND ENJOY WHITEFISH AS WELL.

Great house and location! Slept 8 comfortably. Within a couple blocks walking distance to fabulous restaurants, shopping, jogging trails. 2 blocks from ski bus pick up location.
House was clean and well maintained with nice kitchen and updated appliances and everything you may need. Will definitely rent again and can't wait to return to Whitefish! Thank you for a great stay!

Great place to stay in Whitefish

5 of 5
Submitted: January 10, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
We stayed at the Clayton House with our extended family over Christmas and New Year. It is a very nice house with three large bedrooms, a living room with a very nice fireplace and a great kitchen. It provides plenty of space. Very central location: 15 minute drive to the airport, only a couple of minutes walk to many restaurants and bars, 3 minute drive to Safeway and 10 minute drive to the slopes. Chap was super nice and helpful with everything. Overall I can highly recommend it as a holiday location and we would absolutely stay there again.

Owner's Response: Thanks for the kind remarks. Just to clarify to potential future guests, the house is 4 bedrooms and not 3 as stated.

wonderful Christmas getaway

5 of 5

Just sorry we weren't able to stay longer. Our family of 7 adults scattered north, east and south, enjoyed Clayton House to celebrate our Christmas 2012 - it was the perfect location and provided an ideal sense of home away from home for us. Arriving from different areas and using different modes of transportation, we found this property made it easy for us to all meet and converge - within blocks of the Amtrak station, not far from the airport in Kalispell and easy to find driving in from up north. Restaurants, shops, grocery shopping, walking paths, ski shuttle were in close proximity. There was a wonderful warmth and a surprising spaciousness to the house - great beds and baths, a well appointed kitchen and cozy living room that allowed us to share the space and food preparation comfortably; everything we needed. The ski resort was not far so we were all able to enjoy some time on the slopes, as well as hiking and a variety of great eating establishments. I only hope we will be able to return in the future and perhaps enjoy Clayton House and Whitefish's offerings in the summer as well. Chap was most accommodating and kind and has a great thing going!

Everything you could ask for in a rental accomodation, like a home away from home but better! Very clean and comfortable, completely stocked with everything you need (except for the food). Location is perfect walking distance to everything in the downtown area. A most enjoyable weekend.

We came down to Whitefish to get some golfing in. The house was very nice, well furnished and comfortable. The house had everything you needed and the kitchen was stocked so you could cook if you wanted. The beds and bathrooms were great and plenty large.

The location was awesome. All the shops were within minutes of walking. Owners were helpful and prompt with responses to questions.

I'd highly recommend staying here if you're coming to Whitefish.
