It goes without saying that a cabin in the woods with a crackling fire is quintessential Montana, regardless of your preference for rustic seclusion, modern amenities or the grand and luxurious. They all speak to the essence of what spending time in the wilderness is about. Warm your feet by a wood stove after snowshoeing through the hills of a Montana winter, or relax in a hammock by the trickling creek just outside your cabin door on a peaceful summer day and read that book you’ve been meaning to read.
Rustic cabins rentals and fire lookout tours are available for rent from the United States Forest Service. Cabins are also available in Glacier National Park.
When there are wildfires, here are a few things to keep in mind: You’re safe. Most wildland fires, when they happen, are in the back country, miles from civilization and any structures. Montana is home to 3,443,038 acres of wilderness, and most fires happen there. If, by chance, a wildland fire gets close to a community, our firefighting experts communicate, evacuate and communicate some more.
