5 Mountain West Waterfront Homes, Cabins, and Luxe Residences

Along the water’s edge in the gated community of Bellerive, this light-filled waterfront residence pairs calm surroundings with modern finishes and an easy, open flow. The open kitchen anchors daily life with granite countertops, while spacious indoor-outdoor areas encourage lingering mornings and unhurried afternoons. Two primary suites offer welcome flexibility for guests or multi-generational living, and a spa-inspired steam shower brings a quiet sense of ritual to the everyday. Upstairs, a wet bar sets the tone for casual entertaining, opening to a balcony that’s made for slow evenings and fresh air. Set near the Spokane River and Centennial Trail, the location balances privacy with recreation and convenient access to Coeur d’Alene’s amenities—an ideal backdrop for a more relaxed pace.

In the heart of Helena, The Pembroke anchors The Windsor Collection within the landmark Iron Front Building, reimagining the former Windsor Ballroom as a private residence with rare historic presence. Dramatic 30-foot ceilings and an original wraparound balcony recall the room’s grand past, while expansive south-facing windows pull in sunlight and frame views of Mount Ascension and Helena’s historic downtown. A custom wet bar offers a subtle nod to the building’s storied origins, set beside generous spaces designed for entertaining. Upstairs, a secluded primary suite turns north toward the Sleeping Giant, creating a quieter counterpoint above the home’s more public rooms. It’s a distinctive blend of cultural character and Rocky Mountain scenery—made for days that begin in the city and end with the mountains in view.

Set on a generous .71-acre lot in Orem, this five-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence offers the kind of breathing room that’s increasingly rare in Utah County. Inside, a two-bedroom, one-bath basement accessory apartment adds welcome flexibility—well-suited to multi-generational living or creating an additional stream of monthly income. For those who value space to work and store, the standout feature is an eight-car detached garage complete with a half bath, ideal for serious storage, a dedicated workspace, or housing vehicles, equipment, and recreational gear. All of it sits within an established Orem neighborhood with convenient proximity to schools, shopping, and easy freeway access, balancing everyday practicality with room to spread out. It’s a home designed for living expansively, with options that can evolve over time.

Set on 15.65 scenic acres along Bear Creek, this offering in Ennis pairs a rare landholding with a truly flexible layout: three buildable parcels of 5+ acres each. The creek itself is a fishable spring creek that runs through the property, lending year-round beauty and the steady, peaceful sound of moving water. With abundant wildlife drawn to the riparian setting, daily life here would feel closely tied to the rhythms of the landscape—quiet mornings, changing light, and nature just beyond your doorstep. The three-parcel division opens possibilities for an investment approach, a residential foothold with room to expand, or a multi-home retreat designed to share the setting while preserving space and privacy. All of it sits just minutes to Ennis, balancing seclusion with easy town access.

Surrounded by 5.78 wooded acres in Island Park, this six-bedroom, 4.5-bath cabin feels purpose-built for privacy and play, backing to Icehouse Creek where the occasional trout may be caught. An insulated monolithic slab foundation, maintenance-free Diamond Kote siding, covered walkways for winter access, two on-demand water heaters, and zoned HVAC underscore a thoughtful, low-fuss approach. The kitchen centers on a large island with a commercial-style gas range and a distinctive stainless-steel vent hood. On the main level, the primary suite pairs a walk-in closet with a spa-like shower featuring two individually controlled showerheads and an overhead rain head, while a second bedroom connects to a Jack-and-Jill-style bath. Upstairs, four bedrooms, two full baths, and a long family room invite everything from movies to a regulation game of cornhole, with a rock-climbing wall and play loft for extra energy. Heated garage space and tiled propane fireplace inserts in both living areas round out a home made for year-round recreation.
