Welcome to your Downtown Private Retreat - now with a 2023 Kitchen Remodel. Since 2017, we have hosted guests in our one-of-a-kind cottage accommodation. The 1930s stucco home is truly centrally located and entirely restored with plenty of character, inside and out. Explore the riverfront downtown and surrounding hills on foot or set off on day-trips in any direction. Driveway parking is included. Let us know if you want to reserve that for your stay. There is a comfortable queen bed in a separate bedroom, spacious bathroom with stall shower, and a living room with twin Chinese lounge beds that have 5" high density foam cushions, a dining worktable with 4 chairs, 2 Mid-Century style chairs, and various storage areas. Internet is available, and 27" TV (with Netflix only), central air-conditioning or heating with a thermostat in the hallway (we need to make a switch between the two though). You will find an unusual assortment of antique furnishings from around the world and an amazing meditation room. The tiny kitchen space is completely upgraded with a refrigerator freezer, 2-burner induction cook-top, deluxe 5-in-1 wall oven, an 18” wide dishwasher, and custom cabinetry. The appliances have important instruction guides ......OR plan your retreat from the kitchen too! Only steps out the door, there are many surprisingly diverse dining and entertainment options: coffee shops, restaurants, trails, and other local gems. Visit the international award-winning 2022 Public Library of the Year, an excellent resource with spectacular panoramic views. Grocery stores and laundromat are also nearby. University of Montana and St. Patrick Hospital are both within walking distance. Highway access and airport are not far. Guests have private access and use of the main floor space via the steps or concrete ramp in the photos and plan layout. The entry door keypad code is changed after each guest. And there is an additional privacy lock, once you are in for the evening. Whether you are here for the first time or a regular to Missoula, please feel free to call on us and we'll do our best to answer your questions and concerns. This could be just the place to stay for a while – rest, work, be inspired, have fun... whatever is on your horizon. If you do come, PLEASE respect, and take care of this special place while you are here, so that everyone who crosses the threshold can enjoy and appreciate it too. And visit us at China Woods for more about treasures from Southeast Asia - and Montana. We'd love to chat and hear your stories!
