It’s not a job. It’s a way of life.

It’s true that Tony and Brandy Reinhardt are the caretakers at Butler Creek Lodge, but it’s also their home.

Tony and Brandy have been the caretakers at Butler Creek Lodge since 2002. They live on-site in a separate home, a convenient stone’s throw from the main lodge. The couple, their toddler son, and black lab Gunner complete the Reinhardt family, and just like the Lodge guests, they appreciate the solitude and recreation offered by the Butler Creek area.

Tony has been a fly fishing guide for over a decade and has extensive experience in Missoula area angling. Guests are welcome to test his knowledge on the best local streams and are assured an experience to remember.

Brandy is a sign language interpreter at The University of Montana. At the Lodge, she handles overall lodging packages, from single-night romantic getaways to week-long corporate or recreational excursions for large groups. She also provides the daily breakfasts for guests, using mostly Made in Montana products.

Together, the couple make every stay pleasant and memorable.
