Came to MBR to rent bikes today. Fantastic. The retreat is so fun! They've built their own trails all over the property. The bikes were great. The owner was so friendly. The access to a huge matrix of trails in the area was incredible. If I ever come back to Whitefish, I will be renting from here again! 5/5 recommend..

We heard about this place a few years ago and decided we’d head down from Canada with our two kids under 10 to do family rides and adult rides. We camped for 4 nights. This place was quiet with a lot of tour divide groups staying and getting shuttles up to Banff. it was so quiet at night it was awesome. Met a guy from Washington, he said he’d stayed here 5 or 6 times and keeps coming back because it’s so quiet. We value that. The trails around the retreat are short but awesome. Could let our kids loose on some of them to get a before breakfast or before bed lap. Their network hooks into the whitefish trail so we did a great family loop out to Beaver Lake. The information from the staff at the office, the shuttle availability, The ability to ride to town and ride the other networks was awesome. We didn’t want to leave. It was an awesome place to set up shop for a family who rides bikes. We’ll be back next summer!

We had fun here and the amenities were great. They clearly love biking as they've built up mini trails all over the property, including a skills park. Seemed like a very family friendly place and the staff were easy-going.
