We had a delightful stay at this cottage. We were able to spend time in the beautiful backyard along the little creek. Chairs and a firepit waiting when we arrived. The beds were comfortable with nice linens. The host was wonderful! I highly recommend!

This place was easily the nicest vacation rental I have ever stayed in. My family and I did not want to leave! The whole place was very comfy and inviting. Everything was also clean. The location is perfect too. It’s in Bozeman city limits (not too far from MSU) but feels like a little private getaway in a wooded area with a nice creek nearby. Will definitely stay here again!

Bart's cottage was cozy and peaceful and near the beautiful Bozeman creek! I stayed solo for a few days and felt very safe. The beds, pillow and towels were comfie and all in great shape. Bonus that there were fans in all the rooms. It was also very close to a great city walking trail in town that leads to the public library and was close to MSU were our son is attending. And Bart was a good communicator. Would stay again!

Bozeman ski trip

We had a great time staying at Bart‘s cottage. He was very helpful and offered for us to walk on his wood deck rather than the icy path, which we appreciated! The kitchen is well stocked, and we appreciated all the extra amenities. We would recommend staying here!

Bridger Bowl Ski trip

The location was convenient to the downtown area and Bridger Bowl. It was a quiet neighborhood and the owner, Bart was very helpful. We would highly recommend this lovely cottage.
