We loved our stay at Waters Edge! It provided us with a quintessential Montana experience, right on the banks of the legendary Blackfoot. Just a short drive to Missoula and all that it has to offer, but surrounded by forests, mountains, and river views. Clean and comfortable accommodations. Collin was super responsive and the perfect host!

The house is beautiful, super clean, and well equipped for families with absolutely stunning views of the river. Sitting on the deck and watching the birds was one of our favorite things to do in the mornings and evenings! It feels private and secluded while also being not too far from Missoula for shopping and restaurants. We can’t wait to return!

Great view of the Blackfoot river

We really enjoyed our stay at Waters Edge Lodge. The house is far enough out of town to feel private but close enough to make it easy for groceries. Enjoyed fishing on the Blackfoot and Rock Creek while staying. We highly recommend it.

Wonderful!!

No better view, no better location. Nestled in a valley on the river, the days and nights offered us enormous opportunities to enjoy every aspect of our experiences. It also didn’t hurt to have the northern lights give us a show two nights in a row! Awesome house!

Simply Awesome

This was the best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in! The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and had everything we needed. The fishing nearby was fantastic, and we really enjoyed exploring Missoula. The views from the master bedroom and living room were absolutely stunning — a perfect place to relax.Thank you for sharing your home with us. We’re heading to Yellowstone next, but we’ll definitely be back and hope to stay here again.

Family weekend Missoula

The house is beautiful. Looks over the Blackfoot river, would be a great spot for a fishing trip. We had a few minor hiccups but the property manager was very responsive. 10 minutes from Missoula. The master bedroom is straight out of a magazine. Fun stay!

Wonderful Week in Bonner

Our second stay in Bonner. Waters Edge is lovely! The home is cozy, beautifully decorated and equipped. Location to Missoula is close enough but still a nice separation from downtown. The deck is perfect for stargazing and enjoying the quiet of hearing the river running. Fishing the Blackfoot is just a short walk from the deck. You will not be disappointed.

Magnificent Stay on Blackfoot River

Look no further and book your reservation now! This unique home has the Blackfoot River simply steps from the back deck. The home and stay were absolutely perfect for our family. Communication was excellent prior to and during the visit, and the home was immaculate and better than the listing. The home was well laid out and furnished with all we needed, and the beds and furniture were comfortable. We will definitely be back and already look forward to our next visit to this property!!

Absolutely gorgeous house overlooking the river

This was not only a beautiful home, but very comfortable. It had everything you could need, the beds were comfy, the views were amazing, we grilled for dinners, the homeowners were responsive and very nice and the list could go on. Just a note. Getting down to the river is a little dicey (steep) but they do have a rope to help you get back up.

Beautiful Montana Waters Edge Lodge

Waters Edge Lodge was the perfect setting for our winter family gathering. The Lodge was clean and well furnished and communication was available for questions had we needed assistance. We were all able to relax and enjoy the beautiful home and fabulous scenery. It is a year round Montana treasure with the Blackfoot river flowing outside to watch from inside and with access to enjoy a hike staring right outside any door. Beautiful home in our beautiful Montana. Thank you for the opportunity to stay Waters Edge Lodge
