The west shore getaway on Canyon Ferry.
A cozy home on Canyon Ferry west shore that has lake front access and views awaiting you and your family and friends. You will wake up to beautiful sunrises over the mountains as well as seeing beautiful sunsets. This cozy three-bedroom, two-bathroom lake house will accompany up to six guests with all the clean linens and towels provided. Enjoying your morning coffee in a peaceful setting on the large deck listening to the loons and geese while watching a breath-taking sunrise. You can relax while having breakfast, lunch and dinner right there by the water or cooking by the water while using the BBQ and outdoor furniture. There are endless activities that await you from fishing, boating, water skiing, swimming, hiking, sapphire mining, rock climbing or just relax and read a book or just watch activities on the water. There are all sorts of wildlife near and far to watch and enjoy as well. If you are the exploring type, there are gulches across the lake to take a ride up where gold was discovered. Helena is twenty miles away and offers several restaurants and all your shopping needs. There are daily tours of Helena and the historic alley also the state capital, the cathedral and governor's historic mansion. Helena is full of history, if you like that sort of thing. We would recommend for young children to be supervised due to the property is a bit rocky. There are nice sandy beaches down the road for playing in the sand. Parking is limited, no RVs or trailers. For those with boats, Yacht Basin Marina is a mile down the road, and Kim's marina is across the lake, you will want to call them to reserve a dock for your watercraft. There is high speed internet if people need to do little checking in for work or what have you, as well as a 55" smart tv for streaming. All you have to do is pack a bag and bring the food and drinks of your choice. The rest is there from coffee to linens and towels. As a kid and even as an adult I loved being there and never wants to leave once I am there. Hope you choose our lake house for your stay. I promise you will love it. Come make memories at the Westshore getaway!

The cabin is extremely clean and well cared for, the view is amazing from anywhere on the property, and the stars at night are breathtaking. We booked this for a weekend getaway, and cant wait to book it again for another trip. Excellent everything from start to finish
Great location - never have seen a sunrise or moon over a lake like this cabin. Very clean, fresh sheets, has a perfect down day to enjoy the deck with a good book and glass of wine. Loons
The location is indescribably beautiful, almost otherworldly. We would love to make trips to Canyon Ferry lake a yearly deal, after our days there.
Very well appointed, welcoming and well taken care of, family home. A special place to spend time with friends or family. Highly recommend.
This property had all the amenities of home. It’s on the west shore of Canyon Ferry Lake and the view was fantastic. We loved it, 20 minutes east of Helena we got to enjoy bunnies and their babies, resident mule deer. An eagle fishing in the evening close to the cabin was something to behold. We had a great time!
We had a lovely time. This cabin is comfortable and clean with beautiful views of Canyon Ferry. There were a lot of thoughtful amenities that made our stay extra special. Thank you for sharing your space!
This getaway was so special thanks to Mark and Jill, who were so communicative. I made many cherished memories during our time here. The lake was beautiful and the space is so spacious and gorgeous!
This cabin is a hidden gem just a short trip from Helena. Several great fishing and hiking areas nearby just waiting to be found!
The cabin was comfortable, clean, and cozy while providing an amazing lake view
What an amazing stay. The property is perhaps the most beautiful on the lake. Great fishing. Everything was there that we needed or forgot to bring. Exceptionally clean and well maintained. Games and beautiful areas on the porch or inside for family time. Walking distance from schooners restaurant and the marina. Will book more stays with this wonderful host.
Lovely location and very clean and comfortable. My only concerns is the very steep and in spots very rough access road. And the window A/C units were not enough to keep it cool enough for us during the day.
This was undoubtedly the best getaway! Everything went smoothly, the homeowners are beyond accommodating, and all was simply perfect! The location is stunning, weather proved dream-like. Could not have asked for a better vacation!
It’s a nicely laid out house, comfortable and convenient and in excellent condition, and very well arranged for leisurely lakeside lounging-about. The natural beauty and peacefulness of the setting surprised us in the best possible way.
This was a lovely place to rest, relax, and recharge. The house is well stocked. We enjoyed the deck, water, and local hiking.
Our only concern was the lack of phone service in case of an emergency.
We booked for the location on the lake! The deck was wonderful! My girls went paddle boarding and enjoyed the lake all day. We did puzzles and played games in the evenings. Thank you!
Amazing views and the place was well stocked with incidental items you may have forgotten.
Kayaking or reading a book with the Lake sparkling in the background just splendid.
Thank you for sharing the family’s home.
