Unigue quiet tipi set on the edge Pintler National Forest, Anaconda Montana. Good location to unplug and recharge. There is no cell service at the property.(off grid) The property does have a outhouse, portable water and fire ring. Incredble views of Mount Haggin and surrounding mountain range. Short drive to Twin Lake Trailhead, Georgetown Lake and the Town of Anaconda. Twin Lakes Trailhead(3miles from tipi) open up opportunities to hike into several high alpine lakes and access the Continental Divid Trail. You can hike right off the property onto Forest Service roads and trails. Fishing and boating at Georgetown Lake. A wonderful location between Yellowstone National Park and Glaicer National Park.
I'm a outdoor, horse enthusiast doglover Montana woman. I'm sharing my property because this is where I go to unwind and relax. Unload the horse,unload the dog and leave the phone in the truck. The tipi location is in the mountains and primitive road getting to the tipi. Recommend a a high clearance vehicle. Dog friendly tipi please be consider and be a responsible dog owner.
Please call before leaving cell service. Will give detailed driving directions.

We really enjoyed our time on this property. It is a true taste of off grid living. It is not an in town rental, but instead your experience will be far from town with the comforts you still enjoy. Elk will keep you company when you wake up in the morning. The bathroom has a unique experience that just has to be seen to understand that is very enjoyable. The host provides a very hospitable experience. I would highly recommend and also recommend enjoying all the back roads that are accessible from this cabin.

We had a great stay at Doug and Shannon’s cabin! Located close to Salmon, but still remote and private. We stayed plenty warm in the cabin, and enjoyed the swing by the water. Would definitely recommend and would stay again next time we are in the area!

Weekend Trip to The Meadow
This was a very cute and homey cabin, perfect for a weekend getaway with my boyfriend. He originally wanted to camp, so even though the cabin is rustic, it was perfect for us. I especially enjoyed sitting on the loveseat on the porch. And having a coffee maker! The hosts were so friendly and welcoming.

An absolutely lovely spot to relax for a day or a week. We wish we could have stayed all month!
The creek rushes by, cold and perfectly refreshing on a hot day. The cabin is adorable, comfortable, and well supplied. The outdoor kitchen, including fire pit, has everything one needs to cook gourmet camp meals and clean up afterwards. The nearby aspen groves are perfect for hammocks and shade any time of day.
We had just enough cell service (Verizon) in the meadow to stream Spotify and check our phones occasionally, though we did our best to keep them hidden away. Hosts are delightful—welcoming, accommodating, and generous. We bought lavender lotions and lip balm made right on site and enjoyed conversations with the whole family.
We will definitely be back, hopefully soon!

We had such a nice stay at this cozy rustic cabin! Great hosts, and great location. We recommend!
No cell service, and limited power, which is perfect by us! Comfy bed, and good views during the day!
A good spot to disconnect and relax on a winter night. Thanks!

We had the opportunity to stay at Shannon and Doug’s cabin on a weekend trip to Salmon/hotsprings. It was the perfect spot! Peaceful, quiet, and thoughtfully furnished. Hosts were accommodating and welcoming. We hope to return!

Camped pretty far into the Canyon. Slept outside on the ground by the river and was beautiful. Lots of wilderness to explore and hike, would recommend having a firearm since there are the occasional mountain lions and bears

Potosi Campground was quiet and scenic. Most of the sites have enough space between neighbors. The host was very friendly and dogs are allowed but on leash only. There is a natural hot spring pool within hiking distance, however, we did not have time to explore that.
