About Jan Laverty

Retired. We live in the main house on the property about 200' away from the guest quarters. We love Montana and the people of Montana.

Jan Laverty purchased this house in 2009
Why Jan Laverty chose Bigfork

We bought the property in 2009. Neither my wife or I had ever been in Montana. When we saw Flathead Lake, Bigfork Village, the Rocky Mountains and the natural beauty of the area, we knew we were home.

What makes this house unique

Peaceful, but still close to everything.

Swan River is a fantastic place for family kayaking and is just 5 miles away. Bigfork Village provides you with many high end restaurants as well as excellent breakfast and lunch spots. Bigfork is very charming and has many activities throughout the year. The 4th of July parade 2011 was one of the best parades I have seen. People came from 200 miles away just to see it. You have hot rod shows, Christmas parades and the village is decorated beyond expectation for the winter holidays. The Bigfork Summer Playhouse is one of the special attractions in the area. There seems to be every activity known to man in the area, so there is always something to do.

As well there is plenty of room, on site, to park trailers with tow vehicles hitched up.

Comfortable Cabin

4 of 5
Submitted: August 4, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
As other reviewers have said, this is a nice, clean cabin, well situated for exploring western MT. The beds are comfortable, furniture and trappings all good quality. The kitchen was well set up for cooking and eating there too. The only downsides are that there's no bathtub - a little tricky for washing small children but the shower is extra big, so not a major hardship. There's no stove or fireplace, which might put some people off in the winter, but of course it was no problem in July! Also, it would have been nice to have an outdoor seating/eating area, but again, it's not a deal breaker, esp. if you're like us and spend most of the time there doing other things. I'd recommend to a friend.
Owner's Response: We appreciate our guests taking the time to give us a review. It helps us improve. In addition to the 10' X 40' patio that is already in front and has 8 outdoor chairs, we do have plans to expand the yard area in front and the side. We'll look into a picnic table too.

My boyfriend and I spent a week at this house and were so relaxed we slept in every day. It was quiet and private; super charming - a good break from the city. It was nice to be close to Jewel Basin (nice hiking!) and right down the road from Bigfork Village; the quintessential small town with nice people and great food. Our hosts were kind and gracious as well. Definitely a great spot to stay!

Worked perfect for us. Our 2 teenagers slept in the twin beds and the little ones used the sofa hide-a-bed in the living room. The master bedroom is big and it has a nice sized walk in closet. There is another TV in the master. Lots of activities nearby for everyone.

It far exceeded our expectations. Warm and cozy. Clean with every thing we needed. We liked the big mudroom. It was perfect for our gear. The fact we could park our trailer full of ATV's in the cover garage out of the weather was a big plus. We would recommend it to anyone.
