About Me

Families and well behaved pets are welcome. Pets usually sleep outside. (ours do)
Plus we offer free internet!! Woo-Hoo! That said, we do not have a TV, microwave, or coffee maker ... :-)

Just a Hint: We get a lot of generic "copy-n-paste" CS requests. Your chances of a quick reply and being hosted (by us and other hosts I'd imagine) are greatly increased if you direct your request specifically to your host. For us you may want to use words like, "I will gladly cook for your crew!" (we will of course pay for groceries - there are 5+ of us after all!), or "I will gladly clean up after myself", or better yet, "I would LOVE to weed the garden!" ( it needs to be said with enthusiasm, be it fake or real. :-)

Our family enjoys SCUBA diving, camping, hiking, biking, gardening, recycling, low impact living and any sort of road trip.

Generally we don't host people who have newly created accounts, are unverified, and have no references. But we have been known to make exceptions so give it a try! :)

We are shying away from hosting the "one quick stopover, arrive late, leave early" crowd. Sorry about that.
We are looking for people who want to experience Missoula and Montana. Multiple days with people who want to interact with the family - that's our specialty!

PHILOSOPHY

Critical thinking. The Scientific Method. Have a healthy dose of skepticism. Be kind and have patience.
