Carmen, November 2021 – 5 out of 5 Stars

“Cozy and quiet living in the middle of Ennis. Wonderful location, close to downtown and minutes from the river”.

Fred, December 2021 – 5 out of 5 Stars

“A+ accommodations! Definitely a great host to work with”.

Melanie, August 2021 – 5 out of 5 Stars

“The location was great. About an hour and twenty from Big Sky, and Yellowstone. Beautiful and scenic landscape, friendly people in town. The house was clean, warm and comfortable to relax at the end of long days of adventure. Kitchen was perfect and the shower was nice with dual shower heads”.

Nana, July 2021 – 5 out of 5 Stars

“Clean and quiet are top priorities. New house with new appliances. AC and refrigerator were efficient, and so were quiet and didn’t run forever at night. Nice to have a garage. Most places don’t offer that. Bikes, nice. Well-stocked bathrooms and kitchen. Best of all, Nate’s responsiveness to my needs and ideas. He is very hospitable to his guests”.

Michael, July 2021 – 5 out of 5 Stars

“Very nice home, well appointed, everything you need and close to the town. Nate is communicative and puts a lot of effort into making sure that his guests are happy. We would definitely stay here again, hopefully to include some fishing next time”.

Jessica, November 2020 – 5 out of 5 Stars

“I’ve stayed at Nate’s place twice now and it’s truly a joy. Clean, well stocked, with great amenities and a good location just blocks from downtown. Will definitely stay again when I’m in Ennis”!

Todd, October 2019 – 5 out of 5 Stars

“This had to be one of the best vacation house we’ve stayed at. Everything was new, comfortable and can’t beat its location. We’ll definitely look to stay here again”!

House Details

The space

The completely remodeled 3 bd/3ba home (1 king master, 1 queen, and 2 twin beds with ensuite bath) includes a well-equipped kitchen, gym, hot tub, and fireplace. From your master bedroom balcony, enjoy the view as the sun rises over a backdrop of the mountains. Play foosball or relax in the fire-lit living room, and share dinners in the spacious dining room. The backyard is a calming oasis where you cannot miss the deer or even elk stopping by, maybe spot the occasional moose. You’ll enjoy the hot tub and playing games on the lawn or barbecue and enjoy a meal al fresco on the outdoor picnic table made of woods from an old granary. After a long day of fishing or exploring, tell long tales about your catch and share a cocktail, sitting around the giant fire pit that once was a rock sorter in a nearby quarry.

Guest access

The front door has keyless entry, and we will send guests a new code before arrival.

Other things to note

We respect the small-town character of our quiet neighborhood, want to keep it that way, and welcome guests that feel the same.

David, March 2022 – 5 out of 5 Stars

“The “White House” in Ennis can not be beat. The views, especially from the backyard (yes, even the hot-tub), are amazing. The entire process from booking the reservation to checking out was very smooth. Definitely a 5-star experience.

The house itself has everything needed to make your visit warm and comfortable. There is plenty of space to relax or get together to play some cards. Or maybe Foosball is more your speed, enjoy the indoor table for some action.

The location of the property is perfect. Everything from dinning, to night life, to shopping is in walking distance. Add easy drive day-trips (Yellowstone, Virginia City, Bozeman, Big Sky…) to the mix and the location gets even more rave reviews.

For the fishing enthusiasts, access to numerous access points is either a short walk or quick drive away. The Madison offers some of the most spectacular fly fishing in the world.

We are definitely adding the White House to our list of properties to return too. Can’t wait for our next visit”.

Kyle Stenberg, July 2023 – 5 out of 5 Stars

Great place to stay, and communication awesome just needed a place last minute staying while in town for work. it’s a really cool place!
Sarah Alright, June 2023 – 5 out of 5 Stars
Stayed here for a wedding with some girlfriends. It was the most well-stocked, clean, and cutest setup I have experienced in an Airbnb. They did a very good job designing this cute little house. The location was perfect and within walking distance to everything in the town. Will definitely stay here again!
Andy and Tonya Marthaler, July 2023 – 5 out of 5 Stars
First, I want to say, “book it.” Seriously, if it’s available, stop looking and book this home. There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing Joe’s place is. Now the back story. We had an unexpected situation with the place we had initially booked, but it quickly turned to joy when we saw this perfectly perfect home. Joe was immediately responsive to our situation and quickly confirmed for us to book his home. For the first 5 minutes, the four of us walked around, remarking about all the unique touches and aesthetics that made us instantly feel at home. Everything has been thoughtfully curated to make your stay a 10 out of 10. This home is truly the best that Ennis offers, with views from the porch (we loved watching the deer), walking distance to all the fun restaurants and shops downtown, and easy, gorgeous drives to fishing, hiking, etc. Our group is already talking about when we can come back!
