The Stargazer | Open-Air Glamping Cabin near Missoula
The Soul of the Cabin
The Stargazer is built for the clear Montana night. This 160-square-foot sanctuary features our signature mechanical, button-operated wall that opens your entire bedside to the forest and the sky. It is a space designed for those who want to sleep in the forest, not just look at it—a place where the boundary between a comfortable Queen bed and the vastness of the 100-acre property completely disappears.
The Details
The Views: Forest + Mountain views
The Rest: A Queen-sized bed positioned perfectly for views of the stars and the rising sun.
The Essentials: Off-grid and intentional. Includes a small coffee/tea stove, a curated library, and solar power.
Climate: Real & Rustic. When the wall is open, you are one with the mountain air. We provide heavy blankets or sleeping bags for crisp Montana nights.
The Build: Handcrafted by us from the ground up. See the journey from sketch to sanctuary on our blog.
What’s Included With Every Stay
While every cabin has its own soul, all our guests enjoy access to the shared amenities and rituals that make the Hohnstead home.
The Commons Area: 24/7 access to a full kitchen, lounge, Wi-Fi, and charging stations.
The Hot Tub: An intimate 2-seater shared hot tub for evening soaks under the Montana stars.
The Land & Rituals: 100 forested acres for hiking and finding stillness. If you feel like moving, we provide the gear for:
Traditional Archery: Practice stillness and focus with this old-school, host-led hobby.
Wood Splitting: The Montana “Gym” is a way to vent your frustrations physically, also led by hosts and available upon request.
The Basics: Solar showers, designated parking, and pet-friendly hospitality.
Know Before You Book
Silence First: This is an adults-only, digital-detox-friendly sanctuary. We ask all guests to honor the quiet of the forest.
Pet-Friendly: Well-behaved dogs are welcome to join you under the stars (a small pet fee applies).
The Mechanical Wall: The signature wall is button-operated. We recommend closing it during heavy rain or when leaving the cabin to keep your sanctuary pristine.
Real & Rustic: While The Stargazer offers 160 sq ft of comfort, it is unconditioned. We provide heavy blankets for crisp nights and the mountain breeze for summer days.
Parking: Includes a designated parking spot and a short, scenic walk to your door.
