Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Perfect
The location is great, peaceful setting off of the back patio to relax and visit while BBQing dinner. The home is well equipped with everything you will need for meal preparation and lots of helpful instruction information placed around the house. If you are staying there while fishing, the owners were very helpful and a wealth of information about the river and area.
House is only a few minutes from Ennis, and easy parking if you are trailering a drift boat.
I would recommend this place if you are staying in Ennis area.

Great fishing cabin!
Second time staying at this terrific cabin located very close to the town of Ennis. Cathie responds quickly to any questions you might have about the house or area. We enjoy the cleanliness and the peace and quiet of the property. There are great views you can enjoy from the back patio area. The access to multiple fishing areas makes this an attractive spot to stay in. We also like that our small dog is allowed to come and enjoy our vacation with us. The house has everything you would need and even has a washer / dryer. We have come here twice celebrating our anniversary!

Perfect retreat!
We don't fish at all, but this house was so comfortable and perfect for us, with plenty of hiking and mountains to explore nearby. (Not sure I'd call it a 'cabin'). This lovely place sits at the end of a dead end street, surrounded by fields, some with cattle. I could spend forever in the sun-room with the window wall of endless views. The house is very well stocked everything you could need during your stay. The great little town of Ennis is a 5 minute drive away and has several really friendly bars/pubs and also several tasty places to eat. We would surely recommend Fisherman's Retreat to everyone. I'm already thinking of another visit next year.

Loved this wonderful fishing home!
Had a great anniversary getaway at this cabin! It is clean and has a great location to fishing, stores and restaurants. We usually go out to dinner when on a vacation like this but we ate in every night except for our anniversary because it was so peaceful to sit in sunroom or on patio and enjoy the wonderful views and relax !! We loved the decor of the cabin too. The kitchen is well equipped and we loved the music system that you can hook up to an iPod . Cathie is very quick to respond to any issue that might arise and is wonderful! We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect place to relax and enjoy Montana
My 21 year old son and I spent 5 spectacular days in this beautiful cabin. It was well appointed with all the modern conveniences and was luxurious enough that my wife too would have loved to have tagged along. We grilled out most evenings and spent morning hours lounging over coffee and a good book in the sunroom. Fly fishing on Madison River with a guide who came highly recommended by the owners made it just about the most perfect vacation ever.

Million dollar views for the outdoor enthusiast!
We had such an amazing, relaxing time! Who wouldn't? The cabin has been completely redone with upgrades that include chef's kitchen ( for the fish caught nearby) windows throughout with million dollar views, and comfortable beds. Our children loved waking up to deer grazing in the meadow outside their windows. Main street in the city of Ennis is minutes away with everything from an old fashioned pharmacy (with soda fountain), country bars and fly fishing shops, and old fashioned rodeo. The Madison River in also minutes away, a fly fisherman's dream or perfect for a float. The views are spectacular, on our float we saw deer in the river and a bald eagles nest with the amazing birds perched on the tree branch that held the nest. This was a great family retreat!

Beautiful and Cozy Montana Vacation Home!!
My girlfriend and I stayed here four nights during a road trip that we took through Montana. This a beautiful two bed room home, nestled near the charming town of Ennis, Montana! The interior is brand new, and beautifully designed! It keeps with the old west cabin theme very well! The kitchen is huge, clean, and fully equipped with every kitchen appliance you can imagine. Coupling with the grill, fire pit and outdoor dining area makes for a great venue to host larger groups. The mountain views are breathtaking, which can be enjoyed relaxing on the out door hammock or in the sunroom! The bathroom is clean, newly designed and elegant! Other amenities include Cable TV, WiFi internet, a handy welcome guide to the home, and many additional helpful brochures of nearby attractions. Will definitely be back! This place offers more than any other accommodation I have found in the area! I would definitely recommend for a family get away, and couples retreats!

Home away From Home
Over the past 10 years we have been making a yearly visit to Ennis and this is by far the best accommodation we have experienced. The house comes fully equipped with every modern convenience one could ask for, and is smartly decorated. Located a few minutes drive or short walk from town, the house is set near an open field with unobstructed views of wildlife, mountains, and calming sunsets. Once the sun has set, the patio is an ideal location to sit around the fire, stargaze, and see the occasional satellite. I highly recommend checking out Virginia City which is an old mining town a short drive away, and venturing into Yellowstone for a nice day trip. Set aside some time to wander through the town of Ennis and peruse the vintage/antique shops, talk to the local fishing experts at the fly shops, and have a drink at bars and whiskey distillery. Make sure to pack the golf clubs for a round at Madison Meadows full 9-hole golf course which offers great views as you test your skills on this challenging and fun track. Oh, and there is world class fishing at your every turn. Great place to get away and enjoy Big Sky country.
