This was our first time at a bed and breakfast type of Inn and we were pleasantly surprised!! The flowers right out in front are so beautiful and so well maintained! The house is even more beautiful and you can tell how much effort and detail goes into every piece! Love how there was live music right next door, we really enjoyed being able to walk right back to our room when we were done! We really enjoyed our stay, wish we could have stayed longer!

This Inn is everything we didn't know we needed. It felt like a home away from home, the Inn is beautiful and the caretakers are very helpful, kind, and overall very engaging. The bay is a great place to swim, take the paddleboard out, or just put your feet in the water! Beds are extremely comfy!

Booked this rather last minute for just one night to get out of town and beat the heat. What a gem. The perfect location, gorgeous room as well as the rest of the Inn. The deck is spacious with an amazing view of Big Fork Bay. Parking was easy even for our rather oversized truck. Right in the heart of downtown with easy access to all restaurants and shops. The hostess could not have been more helpful and friends. Breakfast Wes a wonderful assortments of fresh local fruit, eggs, cinnamon rolls, cereals etc. The bed was a dream with high end linens. War are looking forward to an extended stay next summer.

What a beautiful home and location! Lots of great breakfast food and access to a well stocked kitchen. We had a wonderful afternoon and evening on the lake with the stand-up paddle boards and floating chairs. The town has lively and yummy restaurant options and an art/crafts festival was taking place while we were there. There is a fantastic 4 mile round trip hiking trail just outside of the cute town that follows a lovely river and, beyond the dam, a lake hosting many birds. We were able to host local friends for a fun bbq (which needed a little support before we could use it, but the host was very diligent in helping with that effort) on the deck. The property manager and cleaning staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly, taking every effort to address any requests and making our stay an outstanding experience The only thing that detracted from our visit (obviously not the responsibility of the host, but a definite risk in the summer) was heavy smoke from Spokane fires and other blazes in Montana and Canada that came on during our BBQ and resulted in an AQI of 236. We left a day early since things were projected to get worse. We would gladly return to spend more time in this fantastic Inn and lovely location!

It isn't really an Inn. It's more of a Bed and Breakfast, if they included breakfast- which means we had a bedroom with connecting bathroom in a very nice home on Bigfort Bay. We enjoyed our stay. Cute area with good restaurants and art nearby.

Beautiful house with deck overlooking the bay. The town has a lot of cute shops and the nearby restaurant, Wine and Whisky, was excellent. Be sure that you're in touch with the owner in advance of your stay to learn the access codes for the keypads and also make note of the name of the room you've selected.

We loved the room and amenities! Soft thick towels, wonderful thick soft carpet, robes to wear to the hot tub, and a comfortable bed. The hosts went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. And the building is beautiful. The only suggestion is a better, more visible sign on the main street pointing down the alley to the parking.

It’s a lovely lake home converted to a quaint and quiet inn with only 4-6 rooms all decorated nicely. The home is lovely. The outside could use a good power wash as there were a lot of spider webs. They have two nice decks for enjoying a cocktail while watching the sunset.

Amazing place with so many more perks than expected. It’s in the heart of town, in beautiful condition, felt so private even with other guests and had so many unexpected amenities. We would definitely stay here again! The breakfast spread was so thoughtful and the water toys were perfect. SUPs, kayaks, peddle boats, lily pad, etc. Two huge balconies and a yard at the waters edge with dock. Everything we could have wanted!

Kelly was a great host. Very cute lodge style inn on the bay on the main strip of town. Beautifully decorated with lots of antiques and cool stuff throughout the house. Continental breakfast is left out for you on main floor in the kitchen. Bagels, muffins , pastries etc. there is a fridge on each floor that’s kinda family style. Take what you want, leave what you have extra of. One of the strange things was our private bath was across the hall of the game room/ lounge are so we had to be careful when streaking but it worked out fine. There are only about a half dozen rooms and people go out exploring most of the day so you pretty much have the whole place to yourself. Look forward to staying there again soon. Thanks again.
