Riverhouse Retreat on East Fork of the Bitterroot - Stunning Views & Tranquility

Wake up to elk grazing across the river, sip coffee on the deck as the sun rises over the Sapphire Mountains, or step off the deck and cast your line for a Westslope Cutthroat. Welcome to The Riverhouse – your private retreat on the East Fork of the Bitterroot, where nature, adventure, and relaxation blend seamlessly.

Plenty of space, great location far enough off the highway for quiet, well maintained grounds, nicely stocked. We had a minor hiccup but came to terms with the owner to rectify it immediately. We’d definitely stay again.

Great location
My wife and I stayed at the riverhouse in late August and my daughter and grandson visited with us for 5 days of our 2 week stay. The pictures tell it all. Beautiful location, great fishing and lots to do in the area. The home is very functional and the kitchen is well equiped for cooking and dining. Working with the owner was easy and the few minor issues we had were resolved easily. We hope to return and stay again

Peaceful retreat
Absolutely amazing quiet vacation we needed. From Montana but did a staycation this year for our family summer vacation and will definitely book again. Went on the senic drive suggested by owner and seen the big horn sheep about 10miles up. Great communication with owner. It was nice our 14yr old could fish right in front of the deck while I sat and read my book.

Fantastic Stay in a Breathtaking Cabin
The Riverhouse cabin is just a spectacular spot on the Bitterroot River. We enjoyed the solitude, stars, wildlife not only here, but in the surrounding area. Trips to Salmon, ID, the Big Hole Battlefield and the Jackson Hot Spring were some of our adventures this week. The mountain vistas over the passes were gorgeous. Best spot on the River to relax, read and enjoy nature at its best!

Great property in an unbelievable setting. Keith is a great communicator and full of valuable information. We enjoyed all aspects of our stay (fishing, sight seeing, hiking, exploring nearby towns), but most enjoyed relaxing by the river and watching big horn sheep and bald eagles. We will be back.
