On our way home from camping, we decided to take this back road. It branches off the highway with nary a sign in sight, but we had been told by a friend that there is an amazing restaurant "down the road a-ways." We drove a few miles and came across this astoundingly beautiful little restaurant and pub, smack in the middle of nowhere. The building overlooked this small pond, stocked with fish, which you could feed from your hand (I hope they weren't the same ones that were on the menu!)

There were 5 or 6 tables inside, as well as a few out on the patio as well. Out back you could sit beside a small waterfall that cascaded merrily down the hill, ending in a tiny pool by the tables. We had a great meal, and as we ate, the owner came out to chat with us. He does no advertising at all, none, not a bit. He strictly survives by word of mouth. He says that that way he only gets customers who are willing to make the trip because of something a friend has told them, as opposed to people who just want to stop in because it's "the thing to do"

We were very impressed, and if you are ever heading down to Montana somewhere, let me know and I'll tell you how to get there.
