Such a cool place and so impressively outfitted throughout. The kitchen is brilliantly stocked, right down to clips for chip bags and to-go cups for your hot drinks. Jenny and Don seem to have thought of everything that someone might need or enjoy. You can tell when people care about what they’re doing, and this place shows. Like all great places, the cabin is a little out of the way (hence the name Backroad Cabin) but is easy to locate. If you’re not used to driving on dirt roads, just take it slow. Cell service and maps were good all the way up, and then Starlink internet took over at the cabin. When you arrive, you’ll be rewarded by incredible quiet, solitude, and amazing stars at night. Yet, it’s only about 15-20 minutes to world-class fly-fishing in the Yellowstone River, relaxing Chico Hot Springs, excellent cycling roads, good live music, and classic Montana restaurants and bars. The drive down the hill has incredible views of Paradise Valley. This is Montana at its very best.A big bonus were the welcome gifts Jenny left out for our arrival, the stylish record collection and turntable, and the collection of books by great Montana authors (many are faculty at the distinguished University of Montana Creative Writing MFA program).Go ahead and reserve it, then bask in the accolades everyone you bring with you will shower upon you for finding it, and the warm gratitude you’ll feel for being able to be there.
