I want to Mary and her husband for their hospitality. Very unique setting. The sleeping arrangements were exceptionally comfortable and the surroundings peaceful. If back in Eureka, MT, I will most definitely return.

Peaceful Pioneer Camp
Loved our stay in the wagon! This cluster of wagons and tents with beds and awesome decor make this place a fun experience. The accommodations are rustic but very clean, including the shared showers. The kitchen is well stocked and fire pit with benches is a great place to meet neighbors (we only had one neighbor and they left early the next morning). I'd forgotten how many stars you can see when away from city lights! Stay there and you'll be glad you did 😊

Sheepherders Wagon Getaway
I stayed in the sheepherders wagon 2 nights with my corgi while I explored the Kootenai area. The location was a short trip from the main highway and very pretty and relaxing. The wagon was very authentic and cozy. The common cooking area was well stocked. Mary was a good hostess and came and greeted us on our arrival. All in all a very enjoyable stay.
