This place is perfect for either 2 adults, 1 couple, or one couple with 1 or 2 kids (if 2, go with little kids).
It's a short walk away from the college campus, and a short drive away from Main Street (great restaurants, grocery store, gas station, a fly shop (fishing needs/advice). Lastly, you're on the side of town that's close to the 191 north/south along the Gallatin River that has great fishing/hiking spots in the canyon, and eventually takes you to West Yellowstone. However, you're just as close to I-90 east/west (which, fun fact, is the longest interstate in the United States, running from Seattle to Boston).
The neighborhood actually surprised me quite a bit. It reminded me of a very family friendly neighborhood in Seattle. Green grass, flowers, trees, friendly neighbors on walks, etc.
The cottage had all the bells and whistles that I needed. Including wifi, cell phone service, cable (with more channels than I have at home), as well as a smart tv for Netflix, Amazon Video, HBOGO, etc. the neighborhood parking is specifically reserved for the people who live in the neighborhood, to avoid college students parking there for class. However, Sharon has a parking spot set up for you in the back alley, just feet from the cottage.
Sharon is my favorite host yet. She made sure she was there to welcome me as well as see me off. She made sure I knew where everything in the cottage was when I checked in, and brought two items that I had forgotten behind, to my car just as I was leaving. She even let me check in a little early. This only worked because the people who rented before me, didn't check out on the same day. She did mention to me how important it is for her to make sure the place is clean clean clean clean for the next guest, so if early check-in doesn't work out for you, I promise it's because Sharon is doing something to make your stay that much better. Sharon also text me a couple times during my stay to make sure that I didn't need anything, and just to ask if I was having a good time/what I got in to that day. Crazy thing about it, is that I could tell she actually cared what my answer was. I honestly felt like a family member staying in the guest house, more than a stranger renting a cottage. That always goes a long way with me.
Bottom line, stay here... It'll become your go-to place to stay for all of your Bozeman trips. Seems PERFECT for parents of a college student, who are in town to visit, and aren't local. Thanks again Sharon!!!!
