Small Montana town offers cozy getaway

PHILIPSBURG, Mont. — When our daughter told us she couldn't come home for a visit because of her work schedule, we did what any doting parents of an only child would do: we went to her. No matter that she worked 2,300 miles away on a remote ranch in Western Montana that had just received 10 inches of snow.

If you go...
Getting there: Philipsburg, Mont., is almost equal distance from Missoula and Butte airports, which are on opposite ends of the Pintler Scenic Loop (Highway 1). Driving time from either airport to Philipsburg is about 90 minutes.

The Broadway Hotel: 103 E. Broadway, Philipsburg, http://www.broadwaymontana.com or (406) 859-8000. Rates: $74.50 to $124.50 per night, including continental breakfast. There are also two guest cottages with kitchens available.
