Swan River Rendezvous - Riverfront Retreat w/Dock

Riverfront Retreat w/Dock, Kayaks & Mountain Views

Tranquil Riverfront Escape with Dock, Kayaks & Mountain Views – Dog-Friendly!

Unwind at this peaceful riverfront retreat featuring over 150 feet of private Swan River frontage and sweeping views of the Swan Mountains. Perfectly situated just five miles from Bigfork and Flathead Lake, you’ll also be within easy reach of Glacier National Park, Whitefish Resort, Jewel Basin, Swan Lake, and the Bob Marshall Wilderness.

Enjoy long summer days on the spacious back deck—perfect for grilling and outdoor dining. Head down to the private dock for kayaking (three provided), swimming, or fishing for northern pike and rainbow trout. The large grassy lawn is ideal for yard games, with frisbees, football and croquet, and more available.

Inside, cozy up by the gas fireplace in the inviting living room or settle into the media room, complete with a comfy sectional, games, puzzles, and a smart TV. The fully equipped kitchen combines rustic charm and modern convenience, offering everything from a slow cooker to a coffee grinder and Ninja blender. A dedicated office space with river views makes remote work a breeze.

Family time on the river

The location of this property is amazing. We loved every minute of our stay here. We kayaked and fished. Saw lots of deers, small otter/weasel and a turtle. We come to Montana every year and this was one of our favorite properties. Fully stocked with everything you’ll need.

Swan River Retreat vacay

Absolutely delightful! We had a wonderful stay! So peaceful comfy and cozy. Perfect location on the river. We relaxed and laughed the entire time. The home is equipped with every need and want. We kayaked daily and sat by the river and watched the ducks and turtles go about their daily chores. Thank you for sharing your little slice of heaven! We hope to be back soon!

Peaceful relaxing retreat

Peaceful quiet neighborhood. Backyard was relaxing with Adirondack chairs and view of the river. There were kayaks available however we hiked in the beautiful Jewel basin area. Hike to Mt Aeseau was 35 minutes away. Super Clean, well stocked kitchen. Spacious home and so nice that our son could bring their dog. Would highly recommend!
