About this property

Perfect for Couples Or Families Up To 4 In Lovely Two Story Log Home

  • This is a comfortable log cabin with great attention to detail set on our cattle ranch in the Melville area where our families have lived for generations. Otter Creek is a small, beautiful stream and is just steps away from the back door. There are miles of hiking, bird watching and photographic opportunities; scenic and wildlife views surround you. This is for the nature lover, those who love the outdoors and all it offers. We have a private reservoir a short walk from the cabin, and you are welcome to use our kayaks and paddleboards to enjoy the water. There is also an opportunity for horseback riding for an additional fee mid-June to mid-Sept at the nearby Sweet Grass Ranch.

    The space

    The hand-built cabin has a living room with lovely views of the Crazy Mountains, comfortable stuffed hickory chairs and sofa, wagon wheel lights. The dining area has a hickory table which seats 6 easily by a picture window or there is a back deck for eating where you can listen to Otter Creek and watch one of our glorious sunsets as you watch deer, fox and birds enjoy the evening. There is a full kitchen with cooking utensils, pans, etc., in the cupboards as well as some cooking essentials. There is also a wood burning stove in the living room for that unbeatable wood heat. The cabin has a downstairs bedroom with a queen bed and an upstairs loft with two twin beds (and enough room to add a couple additional guests on floor mattresses, if requested and for an additional fee).

    Guest access
    There is hiking for miles on the ranch, which runs all the way up to the base of the Crazies. There are suggestions for hiking in the binder in the cabin. We do not allow you to drive anywhere on the ranch other than to the cabin.

    The Otter Creek Cabin provides the perfect opportunity to reconnect with family and enjoy the simple pleasures as there is no television. We do have Wi-Fi.

Beautiful views and so quiet

My wife and I recently stayed at this cabin, and it was everything we hoped for and more. Nestled off the beaten path, this hidden gem offers the perfect blend of tranquility and natural beauty. The cabin was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The deck was one of the highlights of our stay, offering a breathtaking, million-dollar view of the Crazy Mountains. We spent countless hours just sitting outside, soaking in the serenity and watching the changing light on the peaks. It was the perfect spot to enjoy our morning coffee or unwind with a glass of wine in the evening. Though it was just the two of us, this cabin would be equally perfect for a small family. It’s spacious enough to comfortably accommodate up to four guests, yet cozy enough to feel intimate for a romantic getaway. The quiet surroundings added to the peaceful atmosphere, allowing us to fully disconnect and relax. If you’re looking for a serene escape with stunning mountain views, this cabin is a fantastic choice. We can’t wait to return!

Property is not what is stated in the description.

This property is not what it says it is in the listing. IT IS SO MUCH BETTER! There is no way I’ll be able to address everything in this review, just know that this place is Heaven on Earth! First, the host. Annie was INCREDIBLE! Not only did I receive communication soon after booking to welcome my family, but even the week before Annie reached out to me and provided me with EVERYTHING I needed to get there. She remained just as helpful and welcoming throughout the entire stay. Second, the property. The pictures don’t do this place justice. The property is very secluded, but Annie provided excellent directions that had us pull right up to the front door. The cabin is a work of art, and the story behind it makes it such a treasure. There is literally nothing between you and the mountains except grassy fields (you can almost always see deer out grazing). The cabin is set in the most perfect angle so you can sit on the back porch and watch the sun set behind the mountains and there is nothing to obstruct the view. We couldn’t keep our kids out of the creek that runs right behind the cabin! Third, the activities. Annie set us up to have the coolest horseback riding experience at their guest ranch. Along with exploring the land, Annie allowed us full access to the reservoir and kayaks there at the ranch. Literally walking distance from the cabin! This was the most unforgettable vacation! I cannot thank this family enough for sharing their piece of paradise with us. ❤️

My husband and I drove through magnificent country after a long day of hiking to be surprised with this lovely getaway cabin. Part of an original homestead, this cabin was built with care and attention to detail, clean as a whistle, stocked with essentials, and set on the loveliest little creek for watching the sunset and wildlife. We only spent one evening, but will be back!

An idyllic getaway!

An unbelievably beautiful and idyllic setting, regardless of the season. We were blessed to spend our Christmas in the Montana wilderness and couldn't have asked for a better stay or better hosts. The pictures don't do this cabin justice-- everything about it is wonderful. Being that it was winter during our stay, we made it a point to explore the grounds, ice skate on the frozen lake and visit the local cities like Livingston and Bozeman. It is remote and a bit of a drive to any nearby town, but that is exactly what we were looking for. It's perfectly isolated. :) We are so excited to start planning a return. Thank you for the best holiday getaway and for being so welcoming!

Great Views, Great House, Great Hosts

My wife and I stayed here for 4 days. The house sits on a very large ranch at the base of the Crazies. We loved sitting on the back deck on the afternoon spotting wildlife - deer, elk, ducks, and a fox. Then at night we sat around the Solo fire pit. The house was outfitted with everything we needed and some things that you would not expect a house to have. There is no TV but we did not care. We caught small brookies in the creek that runs right by the house. Even though, the owners live on the property, the house feels very private. We hiked 5 miles withouteven leaving the property. Annie and her husband were great hosts and would touch base to make everything was going well. I would consider the location more remote than others you might consider. It is about 20 miles from the nearest small town - Big Timber - which was just fine with us. We loved this property.

Dog owners beware!

We were so excited to find this listing to stay with our two dogs. However when we arrived we found a welcome letter warning us of the “four TERRITORIAL and AGGRESSIVE dogs” (as stated by the owners) that live on and have free run of the property. And that it was our responsibility to keep our dogs from them. They insisted that we utilize a small enclosure in backyard that any dog could easily get through. We stayed the first night since we had gotten in quite late but left first thing in the morning. We were reimbursed only partially for the nights we did not stay (because of the other dogs), and the owners did not reimburse us for the taxes on the nights we did not stay. If you have a dog, you can’t feel comfortable that the other dogs may attack. Arrive during the day as the property is in the country and owners left no lights on for our late arrival. If we had known in advance about the third house on the property with four dogs, we would not have booked. There was no mention of this in the description.

This was my first experience staying in the great state of Montana, and this hidden gem of a cabin blew us away. It’s exactly what I had pictured a true Montana view to be. The hosts have thought of everything for a relaxing time. The back porch is a must for sunrises, sunsets and star gazing. We will definitely be back!

A good, quiet spot

We enjoyed our stay at the Otter Creek Cabin, a very cozy, comfortable place. Temps were in the 90s but the cabin stayed cool. It is well-furnished and roomy. The surroundings are remarkable, truly big sky country. So nice to see areas that are not sub-divided and teeming with traffic. Pleasant hiking in the Crazies and an enjoyable day on Sweetgrass Creek.
