**The Black Dog Hideaway is a legally registered vacation rental with the City of Bozeman and the state of Montana. We have a private finished basement apartment with a separate entrance in which a family member resides for any questions you may have. Our house is located in the more desirable south side of Bozeman's Historic District and is just 2 blocks from all that Downtown Bozeman has to offer, shopping, restaurants, bars, and even occasional street fairs. Only 2 blocks from Cooper Park, our neighborhood park, walking distance to Montana State University, and located only 25 minutes from our community ski hill, Bridger Bowl. An hour and a half from Yellowstone National Park, and a few minutes in any direction from a wealth of hiking, biking, fishing and any other outdoor activity you can imagine.
Built in 1911, this historic Craftsman Bungalow style home is the recipient of the 2010 Historic Preservation Award, Black Dog Hideaway is your elegant and cozy home away from home. Come stay here and you will enjoy: * custom design wood floors. *original wood trim and built -ins from this historical home’s first days. *a huge, upstairs master bedroom suite complete with a natural stone walk in shower, and a whirlpool, soaking tub, kick plate heaters under each sink to warm up the area if needed. *gourmet kitchen with black granite counter tops and outfitted with everything you'll need including a dishwasher, double oven, and pot filler over the stove. Kick plate heaters are installed in the kitchen for extra heat if needed. *A covered backyard deck, fenced private backyard with a beautiful green lawn, native front yard landscaping, and front porch with privacy shades and two front porch swings. *We have a “50amp NEMA 14-50 Outlet for EV Charging in a garage. Door may be too narrow for some EV’s” ** Both bedroom 1 and master bedroom suite have Mitsubishi Mr. Slim heat pumps to give our guests air conditioning in the summer and extra heat in cooler months should they want it. * If you need assistance, our son, Grant, has a private apartment with a separate entrance in the basement of our home. *** Please keep in mind this home is over 100 years old and therefore you will have some creaky floor noises. It's one of the charming features of our home. We like to think it's our homes way of saying "Welcome" to our guests.

We loved our stay in Susan’s beautiful and thoughtfully appointed home. Enjoyed walking and getting to know the neighborhood, took advantage of fun local shops and restaurants and appreciated all the helpful information from Susan regarding gorgeous Montana nature and attractions outside Bozeman. Looking forward to a return visit as soon as possible!
We stayed here for MSU parents weekend, and it was perfect. The house is lovely, and we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Couldn’t have asked for a better location.
We loved our stay in this well appointed home. We were very happy with its location close to downtown, and its beautiful attention to detail. We would stay here again.
Our stay at Black Dog Hideaway was wonderful! Sue's house was very clean, fun to be in, and close to everything. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the back deck and looking at the sunset.
The Black Dog Hideaway is a beautiful, cozy house located close to downtown and the university. The house has everything you need with an incredibly stocked kitchen. It was the perfect place to stay for our 5-day trip to visit our son in Bozeman and ski at Bridger Bowl. We will definitely rent the Black Dog on our next visit!
This beautifully restored historic home is charming, cozy & comfortable. The owners have taken great care to provide for guests. Wonderful & well-equipped kitchen…back patio & yard is a welcoming retreat. A designated driveway for off street parking is a real plus. A minor mechanical matter discovered on arrival was promptly attended to by the owner. We would definitely enjoy the opportunity to again on future trips to Bozeman!!
It was a great location for being close to university and downtown The house did get very warm so I wish there would have been AC and we did have trouble with the TV. The owner did get back to us to try and help solve the issue but we determined the cable box was bad. For the price we paid I think it’s important to have everything working.
Location was perfect! House had everything you needed and then some! Kitchen was incredibly well stocked. It is such a lovely home! Thank you for sharing it with us! And the patio out back was lovely!
We adore historic homes and this one was exactly what we were looking for as we moved our last into college. We had a super comfortable stay and enjoyed all the beautiful and unique details maintained in this great property! We were able to walk to most places downtown and even north end of campus. Will try to stay here again!
As a resident of a historic registered home, this home made us feel just like we were back home in Rockford. The location was ideal to meet up with friends and venture into amazing Yellowstone. I recommend this property.
