Camp Milson - Flathead Lake 10 BD Retreat with Private Lake Access, 8 acres

The space
ONLY A FEW SPOTS LEFT FOR SUMMER!

Camp Milson is an 8-acre luxury family retreat located on Flathead Lake with 300 linear feet of lake access and 3 private boat docks. Located in the Gold Coast area of Bigfork, just 5 minutes south of town and grocery stores, this is the best location on the lake! Milson offers the modern, luxurious amenities of a boutique resort in a beautiful natural setting. There are 3 homes, a Trapper Cabin and a Tipi on the property.

The Day Cabin is on the upper level and is a 2-level log cabin home custom built in 2022, designed by renowned MT architect Larry Pearson, built with reclaimed wood logs from an 1880s Montana homestead. This cabin features high-vaulted ceilings with reclaimed wood beams from an old Wisconsin barn, a large stone fireplace, indoor/outdoor access, central AC and ceiling fans. The kitchen is equipped with a Viking gas range, Subzero refrigerator, All-Clad pots/pans and everything you need to prepare a gourmet meal. Mattresses have been furnished by the W Hotel and Crate & Barrel with luxury linens from Brooklinen. The bunk room downstairs has a 65" smart TV as well as a pool table and is ideally suited for kids. There is a separate outdoor entrance for the upstairs and downstairs levels - the 2 levels are not connected.

Below the Day Cabin, there are 2 mid-century homes (Glass House and Cherry Cabin) along with an outdoor pavilion. Enjoy one of 3 private boating docks and the crystal clear waters of Flathead Lake (please note - boats CANNOT be parked on the docks overnight).

Max capacity is 22 people total, including infants. (14 adults max due to bunk beds)

Day Cabin: (sleeps 8)
Bedroom 1 (upstairs): Master King-size bed. Bedroom 2 (downstairs): King-size bed w/1 twin bed in nook and seating area. Bedroom 3 (downstairs): 4 Twin-sized beds (two bunk bed sets). Please note that the upstairs and downstairs are connected through exterior stairs so if you have young kids that need to be close to their parents, the parents would need to sleep in the downstairs bedroom. Due to the bed configuration, the Day Cabin is best for 4 adults and 4 kids. Bedrooms 2 and 3 share a bathroom downstairs.

Glass House: (sleeps 8)
This house has three bedrooms. One bedroom has a king size bed, one bedroom has two twin beds, and the bunk room has 2 sets of twins for a total of 4 twin beds. The house has two full bathrooms. Chef's kitchen with large dining room area, and downstairs TV room, full size laundry room. (Has a 250 ft deck on upper level.)

Cherry Cabin: (sleeps 4)
This cabin has two bedrooms and one bathroom with a full size kitchen, laundry room, and outdoor dining and lounging space. One bedroom has a king size bed, the other bedroom has 2 twin beds.

Trapper Cabin: (sleeps 2)
This cabin has two twin beds in an all-enclosed screened room. Put your two most adventurous guests in this space as it's the best room for experiencing the outdoors. Fall asleep to the sounds of nature under the protection of a roof and screened walls. (Solar light only and must use bathroom in one of the houses.)

Tipi: (sleeps 4)
Nestled between four trees with the entrance facing East for sunrises, this 20’ tipi was gifted by our Cree Indian friends. The simplicity and beauty of the tipi is the perfect setting for story-telling and special new memories. (Solar light only and must use bathroom in one of the houses.)

You can rent boats, kayaks and stand-up paddle boards from a local outfitter who will deliver to the Camp! You can go swimming, boating, tubing, jet skiing, paddle boarding or fly fishing. Hiking and mountain biking trails are nearby. Take a morning walk and see the deer and wild turkey roam freely. Or, walk down to the boat dock for 180 degree views of Flathead Lake. The Eagle Bend Golf Club and Montana Athletic Club are also just a 5 minute drive away.

We've been Superhosts on Airbnb since 2011. We geek out about the perfect sleeping environment - from mattresses and sheets, to blackout shades and towels. We try to create the perfect sleeping experience in all of our properties. We have properties in California & Montana, but they all have commonalities of great design, comfortability, and beautiful views. Our homes feature furniture, art, & brands from local artists that we love to support.
