Sweetwater Guest House is a charming condo situated in a historic 1890s once-commercial building, one of Livingston’s last remnants of its early logging and milling industries. Originally established by local entrepreneur Emanuel Goughnour as the Livingston Lumber Company, this building played a vital role in the town’s development, supplying materials for many of its early buildings, including the courthouse. Over the years, it housed several businesses including Ryan Fruit Company and R D Novelty Company and became well-known for its iconic mural, "Coal: Best on the Market," painted in 1908.

Architect-restored in 2007, Sweetwater Guest House has earned a prestigious preservation award from the State of Montana Historic Preservation Society. The space offers a perfect blend of modern and 19th-century design with original brick walls, wood floors, large windows, original rafters and stone walls and historic molding. Guests will enjoy the mix of historic downtown Livingston within a short walk of the mountain and river views just down the block. Inside, local artwork adds to the homey yet sophisticated atmosphere.

The main floor features an open kitchen, bar, dining and living area with plenty of natural light. Head upstairs to the second floor for a master suite with a queen bed, a large walk-in closet and a bathroom with a jetted tub and walk-in shower, as well as a second bedroom with another queen bed, a second full bathroom and a laundry area. The basement den is a cozy and inviting space with original rafters and stone walls, offering a great spot to unwind, play games, watch movies, or even catch up on work. Air mattresses are available for additional guests beyond 4. This is the perfect home base for any season in Livingston. Enjoy convenience in the heart of downtown combined with all the comfort and amenities for a relaxing Montana vacation or even an extended stay!
