Loved staying at the Lodge. Beautiful home and a great location to shops and restaurants. Took out the paddle boards and enjoyed a relaxing time sitting in the sun in the water front property. Highly recommend. Hosts are great and very helpful.

We loved everything about our too short stay! Kelly and Monte were lovely, gracious hosts! Our room was clean and beautiful and our common area was lovely. The Jacuzzi was amazing, overlooking the bay. Will definitely return for another, longer, getaway.

Do not book this place. They double booked their property even after confirming the day before about our arrival. We had paid and booked for this place a year in advance. They were not helpful, unresponsive, and unapologetic after we arrived, as they do not meet you at the property you can only get a hold of them via phone/text. Expedia tried for days to get a hold of them for a refund on our behalf. We eventually found a place to stay in the area and never saw anyone at this property. I would not risk booking here, as the options are limited in the area, which make things difficult in scenarios like this.

Kelly was a great host. Very cute lodge style inn on the bay on the main strip of town. Beautifully decorated with lots of antiques and cool stuff throughout the house. Continental breakfast is left out for you on main floor in the kitchen. Bagels, muffins , pastries etc. there is a fridge on each floor that’s kinda family style. Take what you want, leave what you have extra of. One of the strange things was our private bath was across the hall of the game room/ lounge are so we had to be careful when streaking but it worked out fine. There are only about a half dozen rooms and people go out exploring most of the day so you pretty much have the whole place to yourself. Look forward to staying there again soon. Thanks again.

Perfect in every way
Amazing place with so many more perks than expected. It’s in the heart of town, in beautiful condition, felt so private even with other guests and had so many unexpected amenities. We would definitely stay here again! The breakfast spread was so thoughtful and the water toys were perfect. SUPs, kayaks, peddle boats, lily pad, etc.
Two huge balconies and a yard at the waters edge with dock. Everything we could have wanted!

We could not have had a better experience at The Inn at Bigfork. The staff was wonderful, the space was amazing, and the surrounding area was beautiful. I’ll definitely be recommending this option to any friends or family that come to the area!
