Brunch on the Flathead River
A peaceful morning float with handcrafted brunch and unforgettable Montana scenery.
Start your day drifting along the tranquil waters of the Flathead River, surrounded by mountain views, fresh air, and the gentle sounds of nature awakening. This morning experience blends the serenity of Montana’s outdoors with a delicious riverside brunch — all from the comfort of our handcrafted wooden drift boats.
Whether you’re sipping hot coffee while watching bald eagles soar overhead or enjoying freshly prepared food as sunlight filters through the pines, Brunch on the Flathead River is a truly relaxing way to experience Montana’s natural beauty.
What to Expect
Mornings on the Flathead are calm, wildlife-rich, and full of subtle beauty. As the mist lifts from the river, you’ll glide through scenic stretches of crystal-clear water while your guide shares stories of the area’s wildlife, local history, and natural wonders.
Each trip includes:
- A handcrafted wooden drift boat and expert local guide
- Bird watching and wildlife ID cards
- Binoculars provided for every guest
- Hot coffee, tea, and fresh juices
- A delicious brunch spread of pastries, seasonal fruit, and rotating local specialties (menu varies by season)

Your guide will also point out wildlife along the way — from osprey and deer to the occasional otter or bear. It’s a peaceful and immersive way to start your day.
