About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Immaculate, homey and perfectly located for your stay in downtown Ennis.

The Caddis Shack is a cute little cottage that has been newly updated and is ready to be your home away from home. You are not staying in a "rental", you are staying in a home.

Conveniently located 1/2 block off of Main St. Ennis, it is the perfect, centrally located home for your vacation stay. Quiet and well-appointed, it is sure to please after a long hard day on the river.

Take a nice hot shower and enjoy the on-demand water heater while the coals burn to perfection in the Weber BBQ. Throw the wonderful steaks you bought at Deemo's, our local butcher shop, on the coals, and pour yourself a nice cold one from our local Burnt Tree Brewery, or perhaps a cocktail from spirits from our local Willie's Distillery. Enjoy the comfort of the private, shady back yard, as you and your companion swap stories of the "one(s) that got away"!

The smart tv and wifi will help you stay connected, but the good library will offer you a quiet reprieve if you prefer to unplug and simply read and relax.

When it is time to call it a night, crawl into a nice comfy bed, equipped with quality pillows and sheets that are sure to help you get a good night's rest. The sleeper sofas are equipped with inflatable mattresses which are quite comfortable and have quality bedding provided as well. If you would like me to make up the sleeper sofa(s) in advance, please let me know prior to your arrival, otherwise I will leave sheets for you to do so at your own convenience.

The well-appointed kitchen is sure to please the cook in your group.

In the morning, enjoy a cup of coffee or espresso in the comfort of your own kitchen as you whip up some homemade food in the new cookware. If you prefer to dine out, walk the short distance to downtown for breakfast, while you wait for your guide from a local fly shop. Several options abound in town for "fishermen's lunches" in case you are not on a guided trip with lunch provided.

Convenient off-street parking allows you safe and easy access to your vehicle at all times and makes unloading and loading your gear a snap.

I am confident that you will be very comfortable here and will find yourself booking The Caddis Shack for next year's adventure before you even depart. Enjoy your stay!
Make yourself comfortable in this cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Where do I begin? This perfectt little property had every needed thing for my week long visit to Ennis. It was located literally a few steps from Main Street (on Hwy 287) making access to perusing the great shops and wonderful restaurants and bars so easy. The spotless house itself was a delight, with such comfy bedding and excellent pillows (so important for a good night's sleep)! And the yard! Simply beautiful and neat as a pin - the numerous aspens were glorious and the seating in the back yard provided a peaceful setting to start the day with a satisfying breakfast (most ingredients purchased from the Madison Foods grocery store a mere half mile up Hwy 287). All supplies required for grilling were standing at the ready. Even had chairs we could sling over our shoulder and take to the 4th of July parade for a great seat. And there;s a neat little bakery literally next store to the house in case you can't wait to brew your own coffee and have a yummy pastry,. Our host, Marina, could not have been more accomodating.She fulfilled every detail needed for a perfect stay and was ready to respond to questions at a moments notice. I've visited Ennis many times over the years, but this vacation was the best! We'll be eager to return to this sweet spot again and again. Feels like home.So glad we found it.

Great Location

What a great location for our fishing trip. We would stay again in a heartbeat! The house was a block off the Main Street in Ennis and in a very quiet neighborhood. House was really clean with lots of room. The yard was incredible. We started each morning by enjoying coffee on the back patio. We were in a great location for evening walks around town. The decorations were so cool with many “fish themed” items around the house. Communications were great with Marina as well. We can’t wait to go back.

Exactly as Described

Rolled into Ennis for a few days to fish and relax. Property was exactly as described by Marina in the listing. Excellent location to downtown area. Easy walk to shopping and restaurants. House was beautifully decorated and well stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Great patio with grill and accessories for a barbecue or just relaxing. Will definitely come back.

Shh..little fishing secret spot

Some places you go for comfort. Some for clarity. And some, like The Caddis Shack, for commitment. Five days at this unassuming little altar along the Madison, and you'll be ready to tell the river all your secrets in exchange for the familiar tug on your flyline. The Caddis Shack isn't fancy, but in Ennis, Montana, it doesnt have to be - the views are the belle of the ball. It's a three bar town with five star fish storytelling. And for the fishing? It was everything and nothing - depending on the day. 10 out of 10 definitely recommend. As long as you keep it weird.

Cozy Cottage

My husband and I spent several days in this beautiful, cozy cottage. It had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. It’s just a block from the Main St.in Ennis where there were lots to see and do. We loved the backyard and how peaceful it was to sit and watch & listen to the birds with our coffee. Loved it.

Great little cottage!

We came to Ennis for high school graduation of my grandson. The house is an absolute perfect location. Completely silent at night, off the main street, so quiet during the day. The backyard is grassy and sunny and has a patio with a table, chairs, and a ready to go barbecue. The inside of the house is very comfortable and complete. I really didn't want to leave! Highly recommend this stay!

Cute, Cozy, Great Location

This was our 2nd time staying here, and we loved it. Cute house, comfortable, and great location. Just around the corner from Main Street - extremely walkable to the shops & restaurants. There is also a nice, new grocery store in town that is very close by - you could certainly walk to it, if you wanted to. Love the fenced in front and back yards. We live in Florida and don’t really have a change of seasons, so we really enjoyed the beautiful trees & the colorful Fall leaves. This area is well known for its fly fishing.& the stunning Madison River. - definitely try it out!

Our Ennis Home (We Wish)

My wife and I have stayed at the Caddis Shack for a number of years now. Every time we pull into the drive we feel like we're coming back home. Very little has changed with the house since we started staying there and we like that fact. It's simple, clean and unpretentious. It feels like an actual home and not some sterile, staged real estate listing. And you simply cannot beat the location. Walking distance to downtown and a stone's throw from the Madison. For my wife and I, Caddis Shack is just about perfect.

Senior single fisherman without wheels

It's an excellent place for a single person without a car. I fished every other day and worked online. Several breakfast and lunch offerings and grocery stores are close by. The patio and yard with mature trees are a plus. The W & D means I could pack light and wash often. The extensive array of windows gives the house plenty of natural light. The owner/manager was very accommodating.
