Little Blackfoot River RetreatHelena MontanaListing Type: Vacation HomeCity: Helena Montana Region: Southwest Montana 406-442-3045 http://www.mt.net/~jenkins/ |  More Images |
Little Blackfoot River Retreat is situated with the Little Blackfoot River just outside the window and within minutes of some of North America's best back country recreation, this is a peaceful place -- warm and relaxing. You can watch the fish and birds, listen to the wind in the trees and enjoy some of the best the Mountain Country the West has to offer. Too big to be called a cabin, too private for a traditional lodge, built for business use in mind yet cozy like a vacation home.
The retreat was built on the river, on 20 acres of secluded, private property. It was built in 1986 to accommodate weekend groups, conventions and business meetings. Its purpose was to also provide a perfect location for family reunions and raising children. The frequent compliment of the retreat is how completely furnished it is. Guests need only their personal belongings and food. There are plenty of inside toys, games, books, videos and outside toys: horseshoes, croquet and sleds. The Little Blackfoot River Retreat is a secret fishing spot for locals. It is a spring fed river, home to the protected West Slope cut-throat trout. The Little Blackfoot River is open to fishing year round and locates the fly fisherman close to several Blue Ribbon trout fisheries.
Amenities include: a fully equipped kitchen, cuisinart, dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator, range, freezer and even a coffee grinder. A meeting room with sitting for 20 plus people. Full laundry facilities, phone, TV/VCR, covered picnic area, BBQ grill and a play cabin.

Directions: Situated roughly mid-way between Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks, the Little Blackfoot River Retreat is just half an hour by car from the state capitol of Helena, at the western foot of MacDonald Pass along the Continental Divide. Fly or drive to Helena. If you're coming from outside Montana, Great Falls and Missoula International Airports are about an hour-and-a half away by car. Close by is the community of Elliston, with a store, bar, motel, post office and gas station.
