Incredible Views of the Mountains
Quiet home with beautiful views if the mountains. Very helpful owners who allowed you privacy even though McNiven’s Rest is attached to the main home.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This was an excellent stay! The hosts are friendly and knowledgeable about the area! What impressed me the most is how thoughtful the hosts were...They have the house stocked with all types of things that you might need and forgotten to bring or couldn't bring. There are umbrellas, ice packs for picnic lunches, even a ice bag to keep you picnic cool in! It is a comfortable and cozy house! I loved the story about the bathroom mirror. (no spoilers...you will have to visit!) the beds were comfy and I loved the pillows! I could spend hours just sitting on the porch or at the table looking out the window. It is so peaceful! Our only regret is that we had to go home!

Montana perfection!
This was an awesome home-away-from-home for our family trip. The house was comfy, cozy, and perfect for our needs. The property is great and fun to explore, especially when covered in snow! Add to that the surrounding scenery, and it’s hard to think of a better place. Our hosts were amazing and made us feel like visiting family instead of random strangers. Can’t recommend highly enough!!

Beautiful, Scenic Spot in Livingston
W had an amazing stay at the McNivens Ranch for a nearby family wedding. The McNivens Ranch is a truly special place - equally for the history that the property holds as well as for its beauty. We all enjoyed the peaceful setting, the river (with a great swim spot) and the comforts of the guest house, all of which made for a fantastic stay.
