Cabane en rondins de la maison d'hôtes Sanctuary Farm

Liz greeted my daughter and I when we arrived. I was shown around the cabin, while my daughter stayed in the car. I expressed to Liz that the cabin was not what I expected. The bathroom had an outhouse appearance with sawdust and ash to be used to cover your waste. There were animals roaming the premises. Neither my daughter nor I like cats. That was the first thing we saw when we pulled up. The cabin was cold even with the use of a space heater. The back door had enough of a gap that light was showing through. I stayed at the cabin alone for just a couple of nights. I had to finally go spend the remaining nights with my son. The biggest problem that I had with this cabin was how far it was from my son. When I booked the cabin, I checked the mileage from his place in Missoula. It showed that it was about 27 miles away. What it didn’t tell me was that I had to drive a narrow treacherous, gravel and dust covered backroad to get that 27 miles. And the road directly to the cabin was extremely rough. I had to change my route to the interstate, which increased my drive to 43 miles one way. If you spend the night at this rustic cabin, make sure you read the details about it being a farmstead. You need to enjoy animals roaming and chickens free-ranging. Also, there’s no cell service, but there is a land line. I let Liz and Matt know that I was leaving early. Matt was kind enough to give me some sour dough bread and homemade currant as I was leaving.

They're not kidding about the lack of cell service - which played very much to my advantage when I got to tell the boss in all honesty that I could not be contacted. Meanwhile, the Starlink internet holds up nicely for productivity and gaming, so digital relaxation remains a possibility. Lots of space heaters for cold days, but still perfectly cool on the warm ones. Owners are fantastic and a wealth of knowledge about the area. Amazing and eclectic library - you could spend months here just reading, as I wish I could have. Would be happy to return someday.

Great place Loved the breakfast too

Lovely cabin away from the main drag. Clean and comfortable on a family farm. Must be ok with a composting toilet. Owners near by for any questions.

We stayed at the Sanctuary for several nights before heading to Glacier National Park for a wedding. The property definitely has a lot of potential. It was comfortable for spending the night. We were not fans of the rustic compost toilet but this was disclosed in the description. The rental is also very close to the main house (little privacy) but we were out for most of the time. The host was very kind and responsive to our questions and needs.
