About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A little bit o' country, yet close to town, with spectacular mountain views!

Designed to bring you relaxation and comfort, this is a sweet, immaculate, one bedroom, with full kitchen and breathtaking 360 degree mountain views. Licensed by State of Montana and inspected and licensed by the Gallatin County Health Department.
AIR CONDITIONED for summer when necessary, and cozy HEAT for winter! Ten minutes south of downtown Bozeman in beautiful Hyalite Meadows, near the mouth of Hyalite Canyon and recreation area…open year round to hiking, biking, fishing, skiing, and in winter, ice climbing. I can provide indoor space for bikes or skis while you stay.
Ideal for the vacationers who are looking for peace and tranquility in a pastoral setting - you don’t have to go far to see horses, cows, sheep and even a nearby alpaca farm!
Make yourselves at home in this luxury apartment with fully equipped kitchen – refrigerator, stove, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, and dishwasher. Pots, pans, and stoneware pottery dishes are here for you to use.
Coffee pot and electric tea kettle with tea and coffee for your enjoyment!
The apartment is equipped with WI-FI, Samsung LED TV, and ROKU with HULU. There is a twin hide-a-bed in the living room available as well. Request sheets upon arrival for hide a bed.
From the large picture window in the bedroom (queen bed) soak in the ever fascinating views of the Spanish Peaks. Big Sky ski area is just 50 miles south.
Enjoy your morning coffee on the deck (when it's warm outside) with a view toward the Bridger Mountains. Bridger Bowl downhill ski area and Cross Cut cross country Park are just 45 minutes away.
Roads are plowed often in the winter, as well as snow cleared from my driveway. But AWD or 4WD vehicle with good tires is necessary for winter driving in MT! Winter guests must be willing to walk through some snow, brush snow off their vehicle, and possibly shovel a bit of snow at times!
Summertime perennial flower gardens on this 2 acre property for your enjoyment. Paved roads in safe neighborhood yours for a lovely walk! Awe inspiring sunrises and sunsets, dramatic storms, and 'big' watercolor skies will contribute to making your stay at this panoramic viewpoint memorable. I know you’ll want to come back!
Downtown Bozeman, MSU, or 'the mall' are a short scenic drive from here. Bozeman has a plethora of great restaurants in all price ranges. Downtown Bozeman, with many historic old brick buildings is a fun place to wander.
No-smoking/no vaping apartment, and sorry, no pets.*
Please read my reviews...people who have stayed here have been very happy with Indian Paintbrush Inn!
* There are excellent pet boarding facilities if you travel with a pet, but they require advance reservations.

Beyond Exceptional !
Carol exemplifies the ideal host, and I am immensely thankful to have found this charming retreat. It is conveniently located near various attractions while still maintaining a rural ambiance. Despite our arrival in the early hours of the morning, Carol ensured that the beds were prepared, and the environment was cozy. Her exceptional banana bread was truly delightful, and we savored it alongside our morning coffee after a long journey. I eagerly anticipate my return. This has undoubtedly been one of the finest accommodations I have ever encountered.

Little piece of heaven
We are so grateful that we found Carol's place on VRBO! It is equipped with everything that we needed (including Carol's delicious banana bread...and coffee)! She was so accommodating and definitely has the gift of hospitality. We were in Bozeman for a relative's wedding at "The Woodlands" and this rental was close to that venue. The apartment was clean and private and is in a beautiful, peaceful setting. We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area!

Lovely quiet spot outside of town
We drove our daughter to Bozeman from Maine for her first year of college. The apartment was the best landing spot for us to stay for a few days before we headed home. Laundry, back deck, and amazing view were highlights for us. The apartment is very convenient for getting into town, but it's a nice quiet spot to relax away from everything too. We will definitely be back. Thank you!
