6 Most Warm and Cozy B&Bs in Montana

Montana is often thought of as a cold and snowy place, way up north in the rugged wilderness. While this perception is partially true, there are lots of ways to stay warm and enjoy the winter season at the state’s top travel destinations. For example, there are mountain resorts for ski and snowboard enthusiasts, as well as local breweries and distilleries to check out in the cities and small towns. But at the end of the day, there’s nothing better than coming home to a warm and cozy place to relax and sleep. Here are our favorite B&Bs in Montana to enjoy this winter.
