Sage Cottage is in the heart of the Bitterroot Valley, close to hiking and biking trails and a scenic drive. It is less than 10 miles from the Bitterroot River. Our garden has over 38 bird species that guests are welcome to enjoy.

When you book with us for short- or long-term stays, utility costs like electricity, garbage, and Wi-Fi are all included.

Bill and I steam clean the floors and sanitize and polish all surfaces between each stay. We are proud of our sparkling-clean rating.

The kitchen has dishes, silverware, and utensils; it has an electric stove/oven, full-size refrigerator, instant pot, microwave, coffee maker, espresso machine, coffee grinder, toaster, cookbooks, and supplies in the pantry. It is tiled with an Italian ceramic backsplash. We have our hand-blown glass drawer pulls (blown by Bill in our blown glass studio) on the cabinetry and a touch of our art throughout the Cottage. When building this Cottage, we had fun adding our artwork to it.

A washer and dryer with complimentary, natural laundry soap is just off the kitchen.

The bedroom is warm and inviting, with a comfortable queen-sized bed and bedding, latté colored walls, espresso lamps, and chocolate blackout curtains. Along with the 40" smart TV, it has a writing desk equipped with writing paper, Sage Cottage postcards, coloring pages for the young and young at heart, and colored pencils.

The living room has a futon that folds into a queen-size bed for extra guests. The dining room table has tall chairs so you can see the windows better and enjoy the views. A smart TV on the wall between the living room and kitchen swivels to be watched from either the living room or the kitchen.

The full-size bath comes with complimentary soaps and shampoos. It includes an inviting tub with pebbled beach tile on the floor, Tuscan-type tiles on the walls, and a lighted makeup mirror. A linen closet in the bath supplies extra towels and linens. Our hand-blown glass drawer pulls on the cabinetry and adds to the artistic elegance.

This Cottage has a private driveway for our guests and a front entrance with a digital keypad on the door for self-check-in.

360-degree views can be enjoyed from this location, with the kitchen window looking out to the Bitterroot Mountains and the living room windows having an idea of the Sapphire Mountain range. Feel free to stroll in the surrounding gardens in the spring and summer. If you would like a tour of our gardens or workshops, let us know, and we would be happy to show you around. Our Cottage is located overlooking the town of Hamilton on the part of a farm over 100 years old. Some of the lands are still actively used for farming.

When we designed this house, we added Wi-Fi connected to two flat screens and smart TVs so guests could watch complimentary Netflix and network channels. It also has a wireless sound bar connected to handheld devices or laptops to stream music; music can be streamed through either smart TV.

Outside, behind the Cottage, is a hot tub with spectacular views of Montana's big sky. Relax and watch the clouds roll by during the day or the stars at night.

Our home is nearby, and we love meeting guests but respect their privacy. We are full-time artists and work out of several shops on our property. We are happy to show our guests our workspaces, but only if they request it; we respect their privacy and understand some guests want to relax and enjoy the place to by themselfs.

This lovely little cottage has a private driveway. Enjoy the views of the Sapphire Mountains from the porch or the Bitterroot Mountains from the fire pit in the privacy yard.

Relax and enjoy this sanctuary.

Wonderful cottage

Sage cottage was a wonderful place for our family with two small kids to stay. Bill and Rae are wonderful hosts and the property and view is amazing. Our daughter loved the chickens and fairy gardens. We would recommend staying here to any of our friends and family.

Great stay

We had a great stay at the cabin. It was very comfortable and convenient. The cabin and property were very relaxing and the kitchen was well equipped, which we appreciated since we cooked up breakfast each day. Rae showed us the property, which has amazing mountain views. We look forward to returning!

Great location. Everything we needed! Wonderful view. Quiet.

Lovely charming cottage. We were very comfortable. The view is outstanding and the peaceful surroundings are appreciated. Loved the bonus of chickens out in the garden. Reminds me of a time when I had some hens. I look forward to another stay next summer and maybe even a week!

Peaceful garden setting

We enjoyed the beautiful views and gorgeous setting facing the Bitteroot Mountains. Hosts were so friendly and helpful and gracious. The cottage was immaculate and had many extra thoughtful items for a carefree visit. Kitchen was well stocked and had coffee and cream already there. Wish we could have stayed longer to make use of all the extras that were supplied. If you are looking for a relaxing place to stay, this is the place. To sum up, it was a perfect cottage.

One month at Sage Cottage

Sage Cottage was the perfect “base camp” for our winter vacation in the Bitterroot Valley. It is a very comfortable cottage with all the amenities one needs. Rae and Bill are wonderful hosts and quick to respond to any questions or needs. The cottage is very clean, with beautiful views from the kitchen windows. It is a quiet retreat. And, the hens are friendly and there are quiet a few birds around. It was a wonderful experience. thank you Rae and Bill!!

Excellent quiet place for July 4th

We booked on VRBO, and the response and confirmation was prompt, and it provided all the info we needed. The cottage or small house, was new, very clean, had nice views, and it had all the amenities. It's also private and quiet, even though the owner live nearby on the site. The communication was excellent and the place was very comfortable. I would highly recommend it to a couple or single traveler. It was much nicer than staying at a hotel, and it was only about 12 minutes from Hamilton. It's on the east edge of the valley, but it's not up in the hills.

Perfect!! Fantastic place

We loved our stay here. The property is immaculate and spacious - and very relaxing and peaceful. The view of the Bitteroot Mountains is breathtaking, and the night sky view of the stars and Milky Way are the best we’ve seen, especially when viewed from the hot tub! It was lovely waking up in the morning, admiring the view, watching the chickens and listening out for the elk. This place is such good value for money - cheaper than many motel rooms, but there is no comparison! What really made our stay here so good were the hosts - Rae and Bill. They made us feel so welcome, you could tell that they really wanted to share their property with us, and we feel that we come away making new friends. Make sure to look out for their beautiful glass artwork around the garden! We left with very fond memories, and really do hope to return again one day, thank you for everything!

Great cottage

We (a party of two) have been for one week in July 2020. Everything is as described on the internet site. The WiFi internet connection really worked and we could connect our laptop computer and talk using Skype. The property is well designed, very clean and well maintained. There is a functional kitchen (stove, oven, microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator/freezer, dishes/cooking utensils, etc.). The full-bathroom has toilet/shower/bathtub/sink. There is a washer/dryer in the bathroom. We could park our car just in front of the entrance. The owners made significant efforts to transform our vacation into a wonderful experience. We hope to come back again.

Absolutely Wonderful!!

My husband and I would recommend this cottage to anyone! The scenery, beautiful cottage and breathtaking adventures made for a wonderful week! The homeowners live on the same property but the only time we saw them was when we introduced ourselves at their booth at the Hamilton Farmers Market. They were more than willing to do anything for us. However the cottage didn't need a thing. As we arrived there was a notebook there with maps of hikes in the Bitterroots! We did 3 of them. Also with a relative that worked in the copper mines we found the Daly Mansion Tour very interesting and well worth the $$. Thank you Grouts for sharing your beautiful cottage with us! I am sure we will be back!! The Sheppards

Delightful spot

Watching lighting move across the Bitterroot Valley. Laying in the hot tub following the Milky Way spinning. Yeah, this spot is sweet. Nice cozy cabin. Well equipped kitchen. Modern bathroom. All that and short drives to spectacular hiking. We stayed 5 nights and were not ready to leave! Bill and Rae are delightful hosts with good tips and interesting history. Five stars all around.

Lovely cottage in the Bitterroot Valley

This is such a wonderful, well-appointed cottage, and it was a perfect place for my wife and me to stay during our visit to the Bitterroot Valley. The owners' care for the place is evident in the artistic details built into the cottage and all the thoughtful items provided to guests, from condiments and hiking maps to a washer/dryer for laundry. And a hot tub! It's so glorious to take a soak after a long day hiking in the mountains. We definitely will come back the next time we're in the area.

Our “Welcome Home”

Sage Cottage was the best welcome to our new home in Montana we could have asked for. We spent several months at Sage Cottage as we moved from Florida to Montana and couldn’t be more grateful for our lovely welcome to our new home town. From day one, to the end of our stay a few weeks ago, we were pleased with what we received. The cottage was well stocked with all essentials needed, and several comforts as well. We were not left wanting or needing anything. The cottage stayed warm throughout the winter, and we even had elk pursuing through the yard one night! The chickens kept us laughing through our first winter in a decade, and the clean hot tub healed our aches from day trips skiing and hiking. The nearby calves welcomed the spring and were a joy to watch! Rae and Bill welcomed us and our family with their knowledge while providing us with privacy throughout our several months stay. We couldn’t have asked for more. We already miss it! Don’t hesitate on this amazing cottage with some of the best views and easy access to hikes around!

Quaint Cottage, Wonderful Hosts, Stunning Setting

My wife, baby, and I loved our time at this wonderful little cottage in the beautiful Bitterroot Valley. The house has everything you need plus a hot tub with a great view of the Big Sky at night. The hosts add a lot of fun little local extras, and clearly a lot of TLC, in the house to make the experience that much better. My wife and I spent most of our time just sitting on the lawn, reading a book, and soaking up the scenery. But if you want to explore the cute little downtown you are only 15 minutes away. This Montanan trip was one of the best domestic ones we have ever taken and this little cottage is the perfect way to experience “God’s Country.”

About the host

Hosted by Rae Grout

Host profile image
We are full-time artists with extensive backgrounds in the high-tech industry, which helps us with the technical aspects of our artwork and glass blowing. We love to incorporate science into our functional art pieces.

Our small organic farm overlooks the Bitterroot Mountains, and several buildings are dedicated to our work-from-home lifestyle. The Steampunk Shop is Rae's creative space; the Torch Shop is where we blow our glass; the Big Shop is for general mad science and Bill's electronics lab. Outside, we have a telescope with astrophotography set up, where we take deepspace photos of the night sky.

We warmly invite guests to experience our artistic life firsthand by touring our shops and learning about the inner workings of our creative process.

Since 1993, our work has been a labor of love. We produce glass art, including hand-blown contemporary marbles and Pixie Orb ornaments. Each piece is a testament to our dedication and personal touch, inviting you to connect with our creations.

We transform the elements into art and spread love and harmony one piece of art at a time.

Why they chose this property

Sage Cottage is on the property once part of a 100-year-old farm and still holds the peace and tranquility of a sanctuary. You won’t hear highway traffic but may listen to elk bugling, coyotes howling, owls, pheasants, and songbirds in the early morning hours. The adjacent field has Black Angus cattle in the winter and is hayed in the summer, so sometimes you may hear cows mooing or tractors working the area. The 360-degree views are breathtaking. The cottage is in the heart of the Bitterroot Valley, close to Hamilton, Montana, with hiking/biking trails, scenic driving, and many rivers and mountains. The Bitterroot River has over 100 miles of Blue-Ribbon trout water, great for fly fishing. The night sky for stargazing is brilliant; Bill has a couple of telescopes set up for astrophotography from our backyard.

What makes this property unique

This newly constructed house has Bill and Rae's glass art and artistic touches incorporated into the design, creating an elegant look and feel. The privacy area includes a fire pit and an outdoor hot tub. The cottage has free Wi-Fi that connects two flat screens and smart TVs with network channels and complimentary Netflix. The bedroom has a wireless soundbar that connects to handheld devices or laptops to stream music; music can also be streamed through either smart TV. We have supplied a variety of books, games, puzzles, and a gaming table when one wants quality time indoors. This cozy cottage has a queen-size bed and futon in the living room. It is new construction and artistically decorated with Italian tile work in the kitchen and full bath. The kitchen has Bill's hand-blown glass drawer pulls on the cabinetry and is fully stocked with cooking and eating utensils, a stove, a refrigerator, a microwave, and a coffee maker. We even include coffee. The hot tub behind the cottage has spectacular views day and night.
