My husband and I, two children, and parents (6 total) stayed in Philipsburg for about a week for the 150th celebration of Flint Creek Valley Days. The house was perfect for us. The kitchen was well stocked, the living room was spacious and comfy, and the bedrooms were inviting.

The location was ideal. It's a short walk to town, but far enough away to avoid the noise. There is plenty of parking nearby. Our kids played on the two nearby playgrounds (walked there and back on their own). The Flink Creek Valley 5K running route also went by the house twice, so that was an added bonus! We were somewhat disappointed by a lack of washer/dryer, but the 24/7 laundromat is really close by, and they have delicious pizza besides!

There are several games in the living room available to play. Lots of interesting Montana/ranching artwork lined the walls and created a great atmosphere. The bathroom was plenty big, the shower had great water pressure (and had a real door, not a flimsy shower curtain!), and all rooms have big mirrors. Two rooms with double beds were nice and spacious. The third bedroom had a queen bed. Someone could have slept on the couch or put an air mattress on the floor. There were plenty of blankets and pillows, extra towels, extra linens, and lots of kitchen dish towels.

The owner, Rob, was incredibly great to deal with. He was flexible when we changed our plans and offered a late checkout since no one was checking in the day of our exit. His kind caretaker lives nearby and he tended to the lawn (which looked fabulous) - watered and mowed.

We were visiting from California, but my parents grew up in P'burg. So we didn't need a lot of suggestions on what to do. However, there's a binder full of information in the cottage with places to go and things to do.

We'd stay here again in a heartbeat. We liked everything about it!
