We've stayed at The Hohnstead four times now. Our first stay was in The Blind in August of 2020. We snagged the A- Frame for a weekend in September of 2021. We loved stargazing in The Blind so much we stayed again in May of 2023 while attending a concert at Kettlehouse Amphitheater. We just finished our 4th stay a few weeks ago, this time in their newest addition "The Ranch Hand". Wowza. I have lived in MT my entire life, traveled often, and can say this is absolutely one of the best experiences (x4) that we've ever had. There's an on-site scavenger hunt (pan for gold, find beers, archery, slingshot, etc.) along with an adorable two-seater hot tub under the stars. There's a communal kitchen with all you need to whip up a hot meal, and an outdoor shower if you're feeling adventurous. The views are stunning, the nature sounds are incredible, and the hosts are warm and welcoming. There are so many thoughtful touches in each of the cabins, and you will be booking your next stay before you even leave! Also Read the PSA, people! You are off-grid, there are going to be bugs, sometimes even (gasp) mice! And, as always in Montana, you are at the mercy of the weather. So pack layers, beers, hiking shoes, and have yourself an amazing time. We love Garrett, Alla, Ma & Pa. Best hosts. Best property. Can't wait to...
Read moreI came to the Hohnstead a stranger but it felt like I made two new friends. I am a wedding photographer and was traveling and wanted a quiet retreat to get connected to nature and it was PERFECT. This place is pure magic. Felt like the ultimate glamping experience but you still had all the amenities that made it feel so comfortable. Also it just seemed to attract kind and nice people. I actually got a flat tire on my rental and they not only alerted me but helped me change it along with one of the other guests who had the cutest husky pup. I learned to shoot an arrow on their scavenger hunt. I had a glass of wine and looked at the stars. I was on a solo trip but can't wait to come back with my fiance. I absolutely adore Garrett and Alla they are two wonderful genuine people who have the most beautiful love story. They were both attentive if I needed them for anything but also gave me my space and time to just be present and retreat into nature. I partly didn't want to write this because I don't want this place to become flooded but the people deserve to know. Also rebel vibes in the best way, literally on anarchy drive, absolutely adore the hohnstead, if you are in Bonner you need to go and check out! They have thought of everything, oh and did I mention how sustainable...
Read moreSecond time back and I can’t say enough positive feedback about this slice of peace and serenity! The hosts are amazing; there are some places you stay and communicate with the hosts, and others you experience what prompted them to create such a space… and then find yourself lucky enough to share it with them. Talk about passionate people who have made the most of their dream! Clean and thoughtful accommodations, beautiful surrounding landscape and views, and an absolute mental reset to visit! If you’ve even remotely considered renting at The Hohnstead, I encourage you to follow through wholeheartedly. If this is a new find for you, just get out there and book it! You will not regret it. I can confidently say this visit will not be the last time we go back! And PS, I say we because they’re super dog-friendly… which is always a bonus! So much gratitude and appreciate for a wonderful re-visit, from myself and...
