Most Montanans are natural history buffs. After all, our historic sites can be spotted all over the state, and many of them have been well-preserved, with well-documented stories. Marcus Daly was an Irish immigrant who became one of Montana’s most prominent businessmen, eventually having the Daly Mansion built in Hamilton. Marcus Daly also owned the Bitter Root Stock Farm. And if you happen to be traveling through the area and are in search of getaways in Montana, you can spend the night in an old-fashioned farmhouse on the property at a pretty reasonable rate.

This charming farm cottage was originally a Sears/Montgomery Ward catalog house from the early 1900s.

Getaways in Montana

What towns make the best getaways in Montana?

One of our favorite towns to "get away from it all" in Montana is Bozeman. Situated near Yellowstone National Park and Big Sky Resort, Bozeman is the perfect home base for your adventure in Big Sky Country. When you're not trekking through the iconic national park or hitting the nearby ski slopes, you'll want to spend time downtown, which is home to numerous restaurants, attractions, and accommodations that truly offer something for everyone. The Main Street Historic District is so picturesque, it looks like the setting for a movie; and in fact, parts of "A River Runs Through It" were filmed in this marvelous Montana mountain town.

Located in the Montana Rocky Mountains, Whitefish is an outdoor adventurer's paradise with the soul of a small town. This charming town is situated near Glacier National Park, so it's the perfect home base for those wanting to explore the area's glaciers, lakes, meadows, and mountains. Whitefish Mountain Resort offers 3,000 acres of skiable terrain, and during the summer, visitors can hike, bike, zipline, and race down the mountain on an alpine slide. Back in town, Whitefish is not lacking in personality; its streets are filled with local shops, quaint restaurants, and cozy little accommodations, all of which are at their peak beauty in the winter. Whitefish gets around 300 inches of snowfall each year, and seeing the downtown covered in a blanket of white will make you feel as though you're in a real-life snow globe! To make your getaway even better, check out this ah-mazing cabin on Lost Loon Lake that's just minutes from Downtown Whitefish!
