The Bird House exemplifies the passionately unique Vrbo experience. This is above and beyond what any hotel - or most vacation rentals can deliver. There is a thoughtfulness and focus on details that can not be copied by any chain. Not even the location. 5 miles out from the town of Florence and 20 or so from Missoula is a mountain retreat well worth the journey along the picturesque, winding unpaved roads. (Even those are smooth and well maintained!) Your well appointed deck overlooks beautiful mountains, fields, forest and a cozy fire pit area...and of course the birds visiting the grounds, bird houses and feeders.
Inside, the decor is quality Mission-style furnishings in wood and leather with finer-than-museum-quality tableaus of native art and specimens of waterfowl and game birds - as well as other displays that you might find in a natural history museum. Even if bird taxidermy isn't your thing, you will appreciate the detail and artistry of these displays.
The attention to detail at the Bird House goes well beyond the stunning displays and decor. Comfort, convenience and good old-fashioned thoughtfulness is everywhere. I've operated a 5-star rental for 6 years and know what it takes to deliver this level of convenience. The cupboards, coffee station and cooking areas are stocked with spices and more than basics. And it was done with pride – and a sense of kindness, hospitality experience and human decency. Bravo and thanks to these amazing fellow hosts!!!
