The perfect gift for every occasion

  • The “Big Sky” Suite - only room on the 2nd floor with great 360 0 views of the valley. Private deck, full bath and private entry.
    The “Montana” Cabin has a great front porch looking over the woods and meadows. There’s a full kitchen and comfortable living room. Picnic table and BBQ. Very private and quiet.
    The “Homestead” Cabin built in 1920. Original potbelly stove, sleeps up to 5, and we added a full bath (No outhouse for our guests!) Hammock between two old apple trees and BBQ, picnic table.
    Breakfast in the SunRoom. Fresh ground coffee, juices and enough food to feed all the hands!
    Our little two-year old paint horse “Shiloh”. We are a “Barn & Breakfast” too and welcome those traveling with their equine buddies!
    Yep, even our Granddaughter, Madeline, a future U of Montana Cheerleader, thinks that Deer Crossing is the best!
    Take a car, train, plane or bus - maybe even a wagon - but just get here. This old buckboard is located at the ghost town of Banner, Montana’s first capitol!
    You don’t have to argue over rooms, we have plenty of space. These two bull elk were separated with a little help and a hacksaw. Montana is the full of great wildlife from the American Bison to Bald Eagles to Wolves and Bears....
    No reservation for this black bear so he had to move on down the road - probably to some cheap motel! These guys show up in late fall to fill up on our apples before sleeping the winter away!
    The beautiful colors of the foothills in fall. Every season is a “great season” at Deer Crossing B&B

    Bitterroot Paradise

    October 24, 2011

    My girlfriend and I stayed here for a night in August. It is on a nice piece of property at the foot of the Bitterroots just outside of Hamilton. Stu and Linda are gracious and accommodating hosts, and will make you feel right at home. We stayed in the Charlie Russell Suite, which had a jetted bathtub big enough for two, and was well decorated in rustic western decor without looking tacky. They cooked us a tasty breakfast the next morning, and we spent the rest of the morning exploring the property. We will stay here again if we ever find ourselves out that way again.

    Home away from home

    January 23, 2009

    We have become repeat customers at Deer Crossing - it feels like our home away from home. The setting is picture perfect, the Montana cabin is charming, and Stu and Linda are wonderful. Breakfast is always delicious and comes with great advice to help you select among the seemingly limitless options of activities in the area. Deer Crossing is the ideal place to come home to after a day of hiking, fishing, snowshoeing, rockhounding, mountain gazing etc. We love peering out the window in the morning to see if any elk or deer are visiting.

    Wow, what a place. Stayed in the Montanan Cabin. Very cozy, secluded at the end of the property. Cute wood stove and satelite tv too! Stu and Linda are the best, and what a breakfast!! Baked eggs, cinnamon french toast...I wish I bought the cookbook! Great scenery, loved the trip up the mtn on the Grizzly! Cant wait to go back! Thanks Linda and Stu, Bill
