Serene Hideaway

If getting away from the crowds and hustle and bustle of life while opting for the serene sounds and sights of Montana river life is what you are looking for, Robert’s peninsula is exactly where you will want to stay on your next trip to the Glacier National Park area. My husband and I loved our stay! When we weren’t off hiking around Glacier, we were strolling around the property, sighting deer, checking out the beautiful garden, swinging on the porch swing, and fully admiring the dream property that Robert has created. We loved the rustic feel of the cottage. It was a mixture of luxury and comfort with everything we needed. Getting to step out the front door with a warm mug in hand on a cool morning and watch Robert taxi down the grass runway taking off into that “big sky” was pretty magical… sort of like the cherry on top. We can’t say enough good about the property or Robert. He opened himself to any questions we had from the day we booked. He made sure when our plane landed that we knew where to go and how to get there. He offered lots of ideas for things to do in the area, places to eat, and even local hikes for one of the rainy days when we stayed close by. This is one of those places that you will keep on file for your return trips. We definitely are! Thank you Robert! Our stay really was magical!

Beautiful setting

My husband and I stayed here for five nights. The owner was fantastic- Robert was there for anything we needed. The unit is attached to an airplane hanger - and my husband is a pilot so that was fun. The location is about 15 minutes from restaurants and such- but that was what we we’re looking for- peace and quiet.

Great Host and One Heck of an Adventure!

We picked a crazy week to book this beautiful property. It was the worst flood Kalispell had had since the mid 60's. The road to and from the property ended up under more than 2 feet of water. We had already arrived and could not get our car in or out. There was an emergency evacuation order, the air strip was underwater and the river was really high. Thankfully, we were safe. Robert was amazing! He went above and beyond. He fed us dinner and made sure we were comfortable and safe. By the third day, he flew my husband home in his plane so he wouldn't waste all his vacation days. I stayed, hoping to get my car out. Robert, again made sure I was safe and comfortable staying. I never felt in danger and knew that if anything changed, Robert would do whatever it took to help me out. I enjoyed the property and some much needed rest and forced relaxation.

Incredibly beautiful

Incredibly beautiful-The pictures of the property were amazing and the reality surpasses that. I am an outdoorsman,,frequent fisherman, 2,000,000 mile flyer And I have never seen this combination of natural beauty enhanced by Roberts vision as an architect. The accommodations or for store with a perfect rustic feel. I am already booking next year.

Riverfront Dream Property

The owner was great to work with and meet while we were there. He was very responsive and gave us ideas for a day trip while we were there. We loved being able to hop in one of his kayaks/paddle boards when ever we wanted to. Great fishing in the river and nearby sloughs. Caught multiple pike off of the kayak. The interior was great, rustic, but with all the modern amenities you’d want. Super cozy bed and furniture. This is was one of my favorite VRBO’s I’ve ever stayed at. Soggy Bottom is legit!!

Glacier Park vacation

We stayed at Soggy Bottom on our vacation to Glacier Park. It was a beautiful property, which was awesome for our recovery days from hiking. We got to see lots of planes come and go, and my husband was able to fish off of the river. It’s close to near by grocery stores and restaurants. It’s about 35-40 minutes from West Glacier entrance. The barn was very clean and comfortable. The owner, Robert, is very nice and super helpful. We would highly recommend this rental!
