Photos and Description of the Bozeman vacation house rental
House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)

The Star House is your perfect ‘home away from home’ in adorable DOWNTOWN Bozeman, MT. It is a newly eco-renovated, historic Bozeman house located in the desirable ‘south-side’ of main street. Just blocks from the heart of downtown with restaurants, art galleries, small grocery stores, and coffee shops, the location can’t be beat. Plus stroll the sidewalk-lined streets a few blocks south to MSU and Cooper Park. The Star House is surrounded by the Bridger mountains and so the outdoors are at your doorstep: hiking, horseback riding, and world-class fishing.

The Star House is definitely not your typical rental! This home was our previous residence and all of the nice furnishings (and even art) were left for you to enjoy. It’s equipped with everything you need- from soft clean sheets and towels to state of the art stocked kitchen. It is the ideal place to cook for yourself, family, or friends and sit by the cozy living room fireplace or outside around the fire pit (firewood and kindling provided!). Or simply stroll down the street and check out one of Downtown Bozeman’s many great restaurants.

STARTING SEPT 1, 2013 - LONG TERM LEASE AVAILABLE! Contact Owner.

About Jen Boulden

Although not a native Montanan, I felt like I should have been the very first time I entered the state, on a cross country trip from VA during undergrad. My work is in the field of green business, and so my house personifies my value system... blown-in R64 insulation, energy star appliances, reclaimed barn wood, no-VOC paints, and just a general appreciation for repurposing materials you have.... like the house siding I found in the garage, which was 'spun' into a chicken coop in the back.

Jen Boulden purchased this house in 2006
Why Jen Boulden chose Bozeman

I bought this home as a primary residence. I drove past it everyday for 6 months, feeling that it should be mine - then one day the 'for sale' sign went up. Standing in the entryway for the first time I told the past owner, 'I want it. Let's make it happen' - without seeing the rest of the house. You too will feel what I felt upon entering... it is special. Then my business demanded that I be in Los Angeles, and so my intentions for the house are to keep it until the day I can 'summer' in Bozeman. Candidly, I don't make any money from renting it - but it does allow me to help offset the mortgage some. Plus I just like to share it with appreciative people. It is *almost* as special as Bozeman itself.

Car: recommended

Nature AND Downtown - right out the front door. Walk to MSU games. Walk to the dog park, the grocery store. Be at ski lifts in minutes.

Ski: The best ski day I've ever had (and I've skied all over the US, and spent a lot of time in Aspen and Vail) was at Moonlight Basin. From the lodge to the short lift lines to the powder to the long runs - it was a dream. The resort is less than hour away from the Star House if you want to make it a day trip.

******5 Stars for the Star House!!*****

5 of 5
Submitted: January 21, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
Jen,
We had such a great time at the Star House over the holidays. Love your taste in decor and it was equipped with everything imaginable. We used the fireplace almost daily and took advantage of the convenient location by walking to the Co-op and to Main St. for shopping and dining. Loved Burger Bob's and of course MacKenzie River, since we have one in Indianapolis, we had to experience the "real deal" in Bozeman. Our stay included hikes on various trails, skiing at Bridger, skiing at Big Sky, which is a "must" and snowmobiling Yellowstone, another "must". The town of Bozeman is lovely. What charm. I would have to say that everyone's favorite in the house was the shower/ soaking tub upstairs with the sky light. At night the full moon shined into the bathroom. So magical.
Thanks for sharing such a lovely place. We truly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to come back for Round II.
Thanks Jen and Maximo

Owner's Response: Thanks so much, Lisa! We are so glad you got to enjoy the Star House and Bozeman - to the fullest it sounds like! I too love the midnight showers under a full moon light coming in from the master bath skylight. :-) Please come back soon!! Jen & Maximo

A Perfect White Family Christmas!

5 of 5
Submitted: January 16, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
We are Easterners and spent Christmas with our Western kids in Bozeman. The Star House was perfect for us - 4 adults, 2 young grand children and our son that lives in Bozeman. Located in a nice neighborhood within easy walking distance from beautiful downtown was good for young and older. The kitchen was fully equipped to prepare our traditional turkey Christmas
meal, the table was festively set with appropriate plates, silverware and wine glasses (also perfect serving dishes) - all was delicious! We had a white Christmas (a pleasant couple shoveled our walkway and swept the steps to
the front door!) and the perfect fireplace added to the atmosphere (great firewood!).

We stayed at Star House in Bozeman in November. There was a major snowfall while we were there, and it was a warm and cozy place to stay! The house is well-appointed and clean. There are even snacks for guests upon arrival. Bedding and linens were awesome. Location is unbeatable. Would highly recommend this property.

Grandparents in charge

5 of 5
Submitted: November 6, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
We stayed at The Star House in order to assist our children who had their third child. We hosted grandson one and two at the Star House. The house was immaculately clean and ready for arrival. Check in was a snap and we were able to set up our living arrangements easily. The set up is very conducive for children with a big back yard completely enclosed. The location in town is central to many shops and restaurants, and we often found ourselves walking rather than driving. The fireplace was a big plus in Montana's ever changing climate. We cannot wait to return.
