Kodow Kabin Beartooth Mountains Vacation Rental Near Red Lodge Montana

06/15/2026

Another 5-star review for Kodow Kabin. Tiny cabin. Big feelings. Humanity somehow survives another day.

“Loved this cabin and all that it offered. Super cute arrangement and the added bunkhouse is a great benefit…” and honestly that bunkhouse keeps quietly becoming the MVP of group stays. Especially for families, couples traveling together, or that one friend who snores like a diesel engine climbing Beartooth Pass.

Kodow Kabin was built in 1865, but thankfully now includes things people enjoy, like hot tubs and fast Starlink instead of dysentery and hauling water uphill with a mule named Earl.

We’re incredibly grateful for every guest who chooses our little historic cabin near Red Lodge. Reviews like this mean the world to us because we’ve put a ridiculous amount of work into preserving the character of this place while still making it comfortable enough that nobody has to churn butter to survive the weekend.

✨ Historic charm
🔥 Hot tub under Montana skies
🛏 Seasonal bunkhouse for extra space
🌲 Quiet fenced setting near Red Lodge

Some of the best parts of Montana are the roads that don’t really seem to go anywhere.

Take a drive outside of Red Lodge and you’ll stumble across old homesteads, weathered barns, forgotten cabins, and pieces of history still sitting quietly out in the hills. Places that have seen brutal winters, cattle drives, hard years, and generations of ranch families.

This old homestead caught our eye on one of those backroad drives. No crowds. No traffic. Just big skies, rolling hills, and Montana doing what Montana does best.

When you stay at Kodow Kabin, don’t just stick to the highway. Grab a coffee, take the scenic route, and see what you can find out there.

The Clarks Fork River area off the Morrison Jeep Trail is one of those places that still feels rugged and untouched. Massive canyon walls, cold rushing water, hidden waterfalls, and enough rock scrambling to remind you that Montana does not care about your gym membership.

Bridal Veil Falls sits tucked back in the canyon like a secret. The hike isn’t polished or touristy. It’s rocky, uneven, and absolutely worth every step once you hear the falls echoing through the cliffs.

This is the kind of place that reminds people why they come to Montana in the first place. Not souvenir shops and traffic. Real wilderness. Real quiet. Real adventure.

If you’re staying at Kodow Kabin and looking for something beyond the usual roadside stops, the Clarks Fork area is an incredible day trip. Bring good boots, water, and a willingness to climb over rocks like a caffeinated mountain goat.

Just about 40 minutes south of Kodow Kabin sits one of our favorite little hidden gems… the Clarks Fork River near Clark.

The hike down is rocky, rugged, and definitely not stroller approved unless your stroller has off-road suspension and a death wish, but the views are absolutely worth it. You can hike it or take an ATV, and the trail eventually connects to the Morrison Jeep Road, which climbs all the way toward the Beartooth Pass the back way.

Now fair warning… Morrison Jeep Trail has a reputation. “A little gnarly and a little scary” is the polite version. If you enjoy dramatic mountain roads and questioning your life choices while hanging near cliffs, go ahead and Google it.

The Clarks Fork itself is stunning though. Huge canyon walls, crystal water, fishing spots, side trails everywhere, and enough scenery to make your phone storage file a formal complaint.

This area is one of those places that reminds you Montana still has corners that feel wild.

Reminder from Montana: if it’s dry, don’t burn.

This is the start of the East Side Fire, which burned roughly 1,300 acres this spring and came far too close to several homes in the Red Lodge area. One windy afternoon and suddenly somebody’s “small burn pile” becomes helicopters, sirens, and neighbors watching smoke columns creep across the hills.

Please:
• Check local burn restrictions
• Don’t leave campfires unattended
• Skip burning on windy days
• Keep water and tools nearby
• Fully drown and stir ashes until they are cold to the touch

Montana is beautiful, but it turns into a tinderbox fast this time of year. Stay safe out there.

🐻 Late-Night Visitors at Kodow Kabin 🐻

At 2:11 this morning, our security camera caught a mama black bear and her two cubs making their way through the property.

They quietly crossed the yard, checked absolutely nothing in, and continued on with their evening plans.

This is one of the things we love about living in Montana. Wildlife isn’t something you only see in a park or a zoo. Sometimes it simply wanders through the yard while everyone else is asleep.

A friendly reminder for anyone visiting bear country:

🐻 Never approach wildlife.
🐻 If you see cubs, mom is nearby.
🐻 Keep food and trash secured.
🐻 Carry bear spray when recreating outdoors.
🐻 Enjoy the experience from a safe distance.

And before anyone asks…

No, this was not Steve.

Steve is the moose. 🫎

Beartooth Pass is OPEN! ❄️☀️

It may be warm down at the base, but up at the top it’s cool, crisp, and honestly feels like Mother Nature forgot what season she was working on. And really… how often can you say you saw snow walls in June?

The Beartooth Highway is one of those drives everybody should experience at least once. Giant snowbanks, mountain views that look fake, and temperatures that make you want a hoodie in the middle of summer. Montana refuses to behave normally and frankly that’s part of the charm.

If you’re staying at Kodow Kabin, taking a drive over the pass is absolutely worth the trip. Just keep an eye on the weather because the mountain likes to keep people humble.

One of our favorite little details at Kodow Kabin hangs quietly outside Vicki’s Bunkhouse.

This thermometer represents the Igel family, Vicki’s family, whose business has served central Ohio for more than 150 years. Long before vacation rentals, hashtags, and people photographing their coffee for the internet, the Igel family was building a legacy rooted in hard work, craftsmanship, and community.

We’re proud to have a piece of that history here at Kodow Kabin.

Places become special because of the stories tied to them, and this little thermometer carries generations of one.
