Watering
In an effort to conserve water we do not water, much. We do water from time to time in the late summer. Feel free to use the water and hoses.
Let It Snow
We will clear the main walks within 12 hours of any snowfall.
Because we want to respect your privacy, we will not clear the porches or steps unless you ask us to.
Heat
The cabin is insulated very well. We have found that setting the thermostat at 65 assures that the upstairs is comfortable and that the downstairs doesn’t get too warm.
If it is cold outside, you can close the shades to insulate the cabin even more. If you close the upstairs blinds before bed this will also help the cabin heat more evenly.
Of course, you can set the thermostat at any temperature you like and you do not have to close the blinds.
Kitchen
Turn the faucet up and out for hot and down and out for cold.
Use the range hood if you are cooking anything on the gas range. The fire alarms are sensitive.
There are two bins in the kitchen drawer next to the fridge. One is for garbage and the other is for recycling. Extra garbage bags are under the sink. Bozeman does not recycle glass.
If the garbage or recycling gets full, you can take your garbage and recycling to the garbage and recycling bins in the alley to the west of the cabin.
Garbage is picked up every Wednesday. Recycling is picked-up every other Wednesday.
Use dishwasher detergent cubes and not dish soap in the dishwasher
Pets
Please keep pets off of the furniture.
Please pick up after pets in the house, the yard and around town. Poop bags are under the sink.
Please do not leave your dog unattended in the Cabin unless it is in a crate.
Other
There is a hair dryer in the master bath vanity.
There is an iron and board in the master bedroom closet.
Please don’t flush anything but human waste and toilet paper down the toilet. Thank you.
The door to the utility room is located in the lower south bedroom. It is locked and there is really no reason for anyone to go in there. But if you would like to see what a brand new high efficiency furnace and electric water heater looks like, the key is hanging on the coat rack near the front door.
That same key locks and unlocks the map room and closet below the stairs which are both open in case you are looking for some privacy. We recommend the map room over the closet under the stairs.
There is a highchair and pack-n-play in the closet under the stairs.
There is an extra leaf for the dining table under the stairs.
The windows on the house to the south are too high for anyone to look out of. This means no one can look into the upstairs bathroom or any of the windows on the south side of the house.
Craft Beer / Cocktails
Feel free to take a growler or two to fill at one of our local craft breweries.
The Bozeman Brewing Company is a three minute drive away, a quick ride or short walk away. This is a great place to go after a day on the mountain or the river. The patrons are local. The owners and employees are friends. The beer is outstanding. @BozemanBrewingFacebook
406 Brewing is a three minute drive or a short walk to the north across the fairgrounds. The beer is good. They pizza is also very good. There is also a vodka and Kombucha distillery next to 406.
Bridger Brewing is across town on campus and also one of our favorites.
MAP brewing is a five minute drive away and a great place to have a beer.
The dive bars are The Filler, The Eagles, The Crystal, The Zebra and The Hauf. Each often feature live music. The Hauf has live music nightly.
Plonk and the Open Range feature outstanding mixed drinks, wine and beer imports.
The Taproom has a strong beer selection.
Food
Bridger Brewing is across town on campus and also one of our favorites. The pizza at Bridger Brewing is excellent. Their beers and pizzas are gluten free. If you need groceries, Town & Country is downstairs. It’s a great opportunity to shop, drink and eat all in the same place.
Audrey’s Pizza is also two blocks away. It takes about 15 minutes for them to make a pizza for pick-up. They also have a small but good selection of beers on tap so if you arrive early for pick-up, you might as well have one. www.audreyspizzaoven.com 406.522.5456
Downtown is a short seven block walk away and there you will find many places to eat and drink.
Ale Works is a great choice for food, beverage and good service. It can be busy. Always get on ‘the list’ but also always hunt for non-reserved seating around the bar.
The Co-Op downtown offers really good buffets and an excellent salad bar.
Fine dining options include the Blackbird, Café Fresco, The Emerson Grill and Open Range. Open Range also offers more casual fare at the bar. Barley & Vine is another great option (406) 404-1400 www.barleyvinemt.com
If you like Sushi you will like Dave’s Sushi. The Montana Fish Company on Main offers excellent sushi.
We recommend the Nova Cafe for breakfast but there will be a line. The Western Cafe is interesting. Main Street Over Easy is also good.
Groceries
HEEBS is our downtown grocer and a good choice for your basic shopping needs. It is the local’s favorite go to.
We recommend the locally owned Town & Country for groceries. They have two locations. We prefer the Campus Location but mainly because it is in the same building as Bridger Brewing. Town & Country carries local and organic foods.
The most expensive place to shop in Bozeman is the Co-Op at 908 W Main St. but if you want healthy, local foods, this is a great option. They have excellent fish and meats as well. The Co-Op also has a downtown location with limited groceries.
