KettleHouse Amphitheater
KettleHouse Amphitheater is our favorite concert venue near Missoula! If you are able to get tickets to a concert while you are in town for the wedding, you won't regret it. If going to a concert doesn't work out with you plans, you can swing into their brewery on your drive from Missoula to Ovando.
Canyon River Golf Club
A beautiful golf course just outside of Missoula that you will pass on your way up to Ovando. This is a fun and challenging 18 hole course.
Double Arrow Golf Course
Beautiful mountain views from this 18 hole course located in Seeley Lake. If you like to golf, this is a great and close place to play!
Blackfoot Pathways: Sculpture in the Wild
A funky and fun art installation in the woods. Sculptors have been invited to create significant site-specific works of art using the materials - natural and industrial - that are associated with the community's economic and cultural traditions. The whole experience is outside and takes about 1-2 hours to walk through everything.
Garnet Ghost Town
One thousand people called Garnet home in the 1890s as they scoured the mountains for gold. Largely abandoned 20 years later when the gold ran out, today the town is well-preserved and offers a glimpse into the struggles of those early miners and homesteaders.
Glacier National Park
Glacier holds a very special place in our hearts, as this is where we first met. The park covers about one million acres of land, and contains 25 “active” glaciers. Only about a 2.5 hour drive from Ovando and a 3 hour drive from Missoula. There are countless hiking trails, lakes, and rivers to explore. Some of our favorite things to do in the park are fishing the North Fork Flathead River, hiking the Highline trail, or swimming in Lake McDonald.
Seeley Lake
Seeley Lake is only a 30 minute drive from Ovando. Near by is several lakes to recreate in including, Salmon Lake, Placid Lake, and Seeley Lake. Boat rentals are available here if anyone is interested in that. If you are recreating in Seeley Lake, make sure to grab lunch at Lindey's Bayburgers at lakeside!
