This is one of my favorite places to vote. The cottage is so comfortable and the grounds are beautiful any time of year.

Very clean and comfortable. WE enjoyed building a fire and had everything we needed. Clear directions on what was expected for clean up. WE enjoyed the close proximity to food and shopping and trails for hiking and biking. Love the 50,000 dollar store and did Xmas shopping there!
It was so nice to get emails from you that reminded us of the trip, the access code all worked. Price was reasonable. Thank you so much! WE enjoyed also the signs on the nursery land and marked trails with information about the trees and benches! Love the sound of the creek also.

This was our second stay at Savenac. The first time was at the Cookhouse during the Summer months and the second at the East Cottage in April. Both times were a great experience. Yes, it is close to the highway and there are road noises, but a walk into the nursery fields makes the noise go away. The East Cottage stay was great. The utilities work well and the furniture is in good repair. We had to bring bedding and towels, but the kitchen is well stocked with needs to cook meals there. We had the entire nursery pretty much to ourselves during most of our stay. We used this stay as a homebase to go to the National Bison Range, Missoula and some hiking around the St. Regis region. All of these locations, in our opinion, are a reasonable distance away. For the price you really can't get any better. We are grateful that this place exists and it is available to rent.

The cabin was clean, great location for our activities, such a bonus to have a bathroom and running water.

Love this cabin. Soo peaceful! Love walking around the grounds and exploring the nursery. Huge fire pit. Great spot for stargazing. Wish the museum was open so we could get a better understanding of the grounds. The 50k silver dollar bar next door is always fun to walk around in. Has everything you need except bedding.

Good location. Easy to find and get to. Full house amenities and not just a cabin. October is a good time to stay here.

This is the best kept secret in Montana! The perfect place to stay after hiking to fire towers, riding the Hiawatha trail, or fishing in the rivers. Very comfortable, affordable, clean, all the amenities including a shower and flush toilet and full kitchen. It's perfect for families. It is located on a beautiful property with a rich history, trails, and fields where you can play horseshoes, volleyball, frisbee or other games. It would be great for a family reunion. It has a bunk house, kitchen house and cottages. The volunteers were a delight, Cleaning the cottage was quick with supplies and clearly explained instructions. If you are lucky enough to find a time available, I would highly recommended staying here.
