Our dog, Huck, barks once as a signal that he wants to come inside. He is well-mannered, playful, and loves to have someone throw him a frisbee or ball. He doesn’t jump up on people and is as gentle as they come. He has also been trained to chase deer out of the fenced area so will help to keep your dogs safe.**
There is ample parking for large vehicles/boats, an outdoor firepit (subject to local fire restrictions), and access to 2 kayaks with life vests in the summer. The home is 1/3 mile from Flathead Lake by road with a rustic public access beach from which to launch kayaks or swim. Watch for deer wandering the property as they make daily treks to the lake for water. The back part of the property has a mountain trail which used to be an old logging road. The towering pines and abundant natural flora speak calmness into your soul. You are welcome to sit on a rock or log and just breathe in the healthy air.
You won't want to miss taking a 7 minute walk down a country road to reach the shore of Flathead Lake. You'll pass wild choke cherry trees, hawthorn shrubs, and many large firs and pines. Here you will find a small public beach that is rarely used. (Shhh... only locals know of it's existence!) It is untamed with driftwood and cattails on the shore. There is no dock for use, but you won't need it to launch the kayaks. The water is shallow for 100 yards or more. Sit in the cool water, swim out a ways, or kayak into the vast Flathead Lake. It is the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River and has spectacular views in every direction.
Are you a quilter? So is the owner! If you have a quilt top to be finished, arrangements can be made to complete an edge to edge design on a longarm machine while you are exploring the region. Ask for pricing.
