Loved starting off each day with coffee on the patio. Beautiful views!!! Place was super comfy, clean, and plenty of room for 2. We will for sure stay here again.
We got there about 7:30 at night, after being at a memorial service for a family member. (Glad we scoped the place the day before) The first trip up there is something you want to do in the daylight, after that, it was an easy ride from Victor.
the cottage was clean and cute very inviting. We slept well. The TV is a little weird for us city folks LOL. But we only watched it at night. Went down the hill every day to see family. the view is nice patio was great. We were going to BBQ but those plans got changed. Bring your food if you plan on cooking breakfast and stuff. Stores are close though. Will do it again if we get up there and can't stay with family. Very pleasant.
Great spot in the foothills, out of the hubub but not so far from restaurants, grocery etc. Attentive and low key host, personable, good suggestions on local places. Super outdoor sitting area. High quality finish inside but a little sparse on kitchen ware if you're doing any meals in.

Quiet, out of the way location with an efficient layout and magnificent views.
The stay at this lovely cottage in Stevensville was fabulous. The location was remote but easy to get around with shops and quaint restaurants. Tim the host was very friendly, even checked on us after our first nights stay. It was cool to see the deer all around the area. I highly recommend this and would come back when visiting Montana.
Only thing that disappointed me was the hideabed. But, what can I say. Hideabeds aren't made for comfort. We needed the 2nd bed because I have restless leg syndrome and also use a c-pap machine. Instructions were pretty clear, almost intimidating. It wasn't clear to me where the boundries wer for walking on the property. The bldg. above was a mystery.
We absolutely loved our stay at the Cozy Cottage! The cabin was small but had everything we needed and was very clean. The owner’s communication leading up to and during was great.
Beautiful property and most gracious hosts! I did not expect such a spacious feel with a one-room cottage! A delightful kitchen with all the basic cooking needs, vaulted ceilings and big windows with breathtaking views create an airy and expansive ambiance, and a large, beautifully tiled bathroom, and the gorgeous courtyard make this the first on my list to stay every time I am in Stevensville! Thank you for making my stay so memorable!
My arrival was greeted by a snow covered landscape in October that was breathtaking…. I was in complete awe every time I left and returned to such beauty for the week I was there. The accommodations were exactly as described and nearly felt like a second home while I was away from my own.
As my very first visit to Montana, Tim's place was quintessential. Simply decorated, this delightful cottage has gorgeous views of the Bitterroot Mountains while offering all the amenities of home. Nestled in the valley, there are multiple hiking trails within reasonable distance and plentiful sights with no shortage of options. If you opt to just relax at the cottage instead, you may see or hear some wildlife while taking in spectacular sunsets and sunrises.
The secluded cottage is everything you could ask for to enjoy a quiet, serene weekend. Incredibly clean, the pictures don’t do it justice. This cottage comes with all the necessary creature comforts while still allowing you to experience a low-key getaway! As charming as this cottage is on the inside, it gets even better outside! The patio has abundant seating to enjoy morning coffee or even dinner under a romantically lit gazebo. If that's not enough there's a fire pit to enjoy while stargazing under the millions of stars and the Milky Way that are often visible at night.
Tim, our host, was just wonderful. He offered great recommendations of things to do and delicious places to eat. He made sure we would truly enjoy our time and was by far the friendliest and most responsive host I have ever had the privilege of meeting and interacting with. If I had one regret, I would have stayed longer because this is truly the gem of Stevensville and I'm already dreaming of when we can return.
Great location. Extremely clean. Tim the owner is a super good guy! Would recommend to anyone. We want to go back. Thank you Tim!

We particularly liked the location. The views are superb. It is quiet and just a stunningly beautiful setting. Wildlife abounds, great birding and nature opportunities.
It was a great stay in a beautiful location, very clean and very friendly helpful host Tim. We'd definitely come back when we could. Perfect space for two.
The communication was top notch from the first interaction. The property was well described and Tim was very friendly throughout the process of booking. I would happily book this property again! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
