Upon arriving with our party of 6 from various parts of the country, Deb greeted us by name, making us feel welcome and ready to begin an adventure of a lifetime.
We were amazed with the cleanliness, the uniqueness of cabin design and items furnished by the owner's that exactly matched the pictures and descriptions that were online. The views of the Rocky Mountains in the morning while looking across pastures of grazing horses gave us that true western feeling. The “Big Sky” State lived up to its reputation with warm days, cool nights and an unsurpassed view of the stars at night.
We cooked all our gourmet meals in the fully furnished kitchen and barbecued on the deck facing the Flathead River. We used the cabin as our base camp for Glacier National Park, and the surrounding cities of Kalispell, Bigfork and Whitefish. The washer and dryer plus supplies kept us ready to look presentable after a day on the river or trails.
Part of our party booked a full day fly fishing float trip with Kirk, who was a very patient guide in teaching Janet how to fly fish (One o’clock stop, ten o’clock drop and mend) while letting Al, who was experienced, do his own thing. The owner's provided a riverside lunch and drinks halfway through the trip to boast our energy for the remaining trip.
Our party was invited up to the owner's home for drinks and hors d' oeuvres and got treated to the authentic feel of Montana life.
Kirk and Deb are definitely positive ambassadors for Montana!!! We will spread the good word about Gentry River Ranch.
