Hi Folks, Thanks for checking out Deer Crossing! If you're looking for a quiet place within easy walking or riding distance of the largest wilderness area in the lower 48 you've just found us. Want to fish on the greatest trout streams in the world? Yep, you've found us. Deer Crossing Bed & Breakfast is kinda a "magical place" that's got plenty of property, activities and is great for a romantic hideaway or a family reunion. We are Kid, Horse and Pet friendly. Montana is a great place and the Bitterroot Valley is what America is all about. Stroll downtown Hamilton, visit Farmer's Market on Saturday mornings, have a great malt at "Old West Ice Cream Parlor. . .
How could you ask for more than Western Montana?! DC B & B is located along the historic Lewis and Clark Trail between Hamilton and Darby, Montana, nestled on twenty-five acres of tall pines and lush meadows overlooking the beautiful Bitterroot Valley. Relax on the deck with a steamy cup of freshly ground coffee and watch the sun rise over the Sapphire Mountains. Enjoy sweet dreams in one of our suites, guestrooms or cabins. Awaken to a hearty ranch breakfast served in the Sun Room with its fabulous views, then plan your day to include horseback riding, world class fly fishing, hiking, exploring historical sites, or relaxing on the deck to soak up the quiet beauty. (Or even listen to Stu "ramble" on about the history of the valley and DC B & B. - no extra charge!)
We had a "mild" Winter this year but are expecting a "wet" Spring. Fishing should be excellent, especially early-on. Wildlife has been abundant here at DC early this year with lots of Whitetail Deer, Elk, and Bear siteings. Wolf, lion and others make their presence known by track and siteings in the back country. The widlflowers of Montana and hundreds of species of birds visit as DC is on a major flyway.
No matter what time of year you choose to visit, you will find that in our valley the skies are a little bluer, the air is fresher, the days are slower paced, the quiet is quieter and the people are friendlier. We invite you to "Kick off your boots, hang your hat and make yourself at home!" Once you drive through our gate you're family!
Give the Bitterroot more than a few days. This area is filled with history and you can take great day trips to ghost towns, Sapphire mines, railroad museums, great historic mansions or head back into some of the most pristine wilderness area left in the 'lower 48! How about digging for crystals on your own or taking a hike up to some beautiful mountain lakes and having lunch looking up at Trapper Peak? Deer Crossing is your best place for "base camp" that you can choose!
