Photos and Description of the Fishtail vacation cottage rental
2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, sleeps 4

Open and accessible all year round. Owner maintains road access. Every season is as beautiful as the next. The houses, barns, corrals and outbuildings are in a cluster at the center of the 450 acre Ranch. The Lake is within short walking distance. We believe the kitchen of the Cobblestone House was the original homestead, and the other rooms were added as the family grew.

The Cobblestone is charming, comfortable and ready for a family of 4 or a romantic couples get-away. The house is one level. Each bedroom has a comfy queen sized bed, a dresser and closet space. The house has one full bathroom situated between the two bedrooms. There is also a separate office with desk and chair. Bedding, towels, and pillows are provided. Horses are allowed with prior approval. Pets negotiable.

PLEASE NOTE: There is a Log Home 50 yards away also available for rental, sleeps 12.

Notes: The Cobblestone has interesting features only found in a historic home. If you would enjoy a sense of history while at the same modern conveniences, then this is the place for you. The floor makes a creaking sound when you walk on the hardwood, there is a bow in the kitchen floor as it is the oldest part of the house. There is no dishwasher, however, a drying rack and dish drying towels are provided. We love the original farm style sink which allows for the authentic experience of early Montana ranching days. We provide pellets for the decorative glass front stove, with lighting instructions, if needed. The house is all one level there is one step to come up in order to get into the house. Inside doorways may not be wide enough for some wheelchairs. Most of the sights, including the lake can be driven to when the roads are dry or frozen.

Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Fishtail, Montana

About the Cobblestone House: :

The Cobblestone offers a bit of history and a lot of relaxation. Walk anywhere you like on the 450 acre Ranch or just relax, relax, relax. On the Ranch there is a private trout lake, about eleven acres in size, several beaver ponds and three year-round live creeks. The lakes and ponds offer trout fishing to guests and is within easy walking distance for all. If river fishing is what you are after the Stillwater River is only 10 minutes drive, Rosebud Creek the same distance and the Yellowstone River is only 20 minutes drive away. Because of the abundance of water and tree cover this section of land draws wildlife of all kinds. Wildlife is often spotted walking through the Ranch, and photographic opportunities are abound!

Views, Fishing and Wildlife: :

At the Ranch there are outdoor activities like walking, sightseeing, photography, swimming or fishing at the private lake. There is a dock with a picnic table if you want to pack a cooler and spend a good long time soaking up the sun and scenery. The Ranch is a short distance to spectacular hiking trails, mountain biking, downhill skiing, cross country skiing, dog sledding, snowshoeing, white water rafting, kayaking, horseback riding, the famous Beartooth Highway, Absarokee Days, historic Red Lodge and its annual rodeo and mountain man rendezvous, quaint towns with great gift shops in Absarokee and Fishtail, ATV rentals, wagon tours & sleigh rides, Stillwater Art & Wine Festival, or a day trip into Yellowstone National Park. The route to Yellowstone from the Ranch is breathtakingly beautiful, going over the Beartooth Highway to the Top of the World, then through the historic mining town of Cooke City. The Winter route to Yellowstone is through Gardiner, MT and the Paradise Valley.

Ski:

Red Lodge Mountain offers downhill skiing and ski rentals. It is a 45 minute drive from the Ranch. Depending on our level of snow fall there can be cross country opportunities right on the Ranch. Rental equipment is available in Red Lodge or in Billings.

Golf:

There is a golf course in Red Lodge 45 minutes away, and also one in Columbus 30 minutes away.

Other Activities:

photography, wildlife viewing

Private Thanksgiving Retreat

Review Submitted: November 27, 2011 Date of Stay: November 2011
We were looking for a private, cozy out of the way place to get away from the "day to day". We stayed in the coblestone house. It exceded our expectations! The kitchen was fully stocked with bowls, bakeware, glasses, tea pot, microwave, and even the basic essentials for condiments! (Baking powder, soda, spices etc.) Coffee and tea is also provided. We literally just had to bring our bags and some groceries. There is also a BOSE radio in the kitchen that got a lot of use.
The pellet stove in the cozy living room was very relaxing and inviting. The beds were extremely comfortable and clean.

The views were breathtaking and there is a lot of history on the property. We walked up to the fishing lake and toured the big red barn. We saw lots of deer and various other wildlife.
We look forward to our next stay! Everything was absolutely perfect and Roxanne is a gracious hostess.

HOME AWAY FROM HOME

Review Submitted: May 19, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
My friend & I stayed in the Cobblestone in May 2011 and loved every thing about it. We were looking for some quiet time away from our busy every day lives & this was perfect! The owners of the property thought of everything & then some. The kitchen was well stocked with most anything you would need to cook, bake or serve with, even down to the paper towels and foil. The bedding and other furniture were all very comfortable. From the minute we entered the ranch property I felt at peace and at home. There were games, books, DVD movies, pictures & history of the ranch and this original homestead. Roxanne is a great manager & hostess, we couldn't have asked for anything more. The mountain views are breathtaking and we enjoyed seeing the wildlife and so many beautiful birds. I highly recommend the Cobblestone house, you will love it. If you need a larger place, there is a beautiful log home on the property to rent as well.

A Quiet Spot

Review Submitted: May 14, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
Our time at the ranch was extremely enjoyable and only wished we could have extend our stay. The time was spent relaxing enjoying the beautiful views of the Beartooth Mountains as a backdrop against the property. We were treated extremely well as guests and amazed at the diverse wildlife within the property boundary. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet hideout to relax from the stresses of everyday life. It is definately on my list to return in the near future. We were given a tour of the property which proved to be extremely intresting and informative regarding the history of the ranch.

Great Get-away!

Review Submitted: January 7, 2011 Date of Stay: January 2010
I stayed at the Cobblestone House at White Deer Ranch in December 2010. I found it interesting that the houses kitchen was an original homestead. I liked that the history was there for me to read and learn about. I went for a walk in the aspen trees, saw lots of animal tracks and cool old ranch implements. I got lots of computer work done on the high speed internet, then took the rest of the time to sit by the fire and visit with my family. Very relaxing, enjoyable and peaceful place. I'd highly recommend it!

Owner's Response: Preserving the history of the Ranch is one of the reasons we renovated the Cobblestone House so it could be shared with others like you that want to learn about it. Thanks for you review and thanks for staying at White Deer Ranch!

Sweet and Serene

Review Submitted: January 5, 2011 Date of Stay: January 2010
My visit to the cobblestone was in the midst of winter over the holidays. I can't even tell you how comforting it was to be watching the snow fall from a cozy place by an old fashioned fire place. Roxanne is such a good hostess she saw to it I had everything I needed and all I had to do was relax and amuse myself. Truly a magical little place.
