What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Columbia Falls

I like being far enough from town that we don't have the noise of in town but yet we are close enough to get stores/drs/etc.

I have a park with an outdoor public swimming pool at the end of the street and another park a couple blocks away, which is very convenient with having kids. I also frequently walk with them to the grocery store, even though I have to cross the highway. There's also several coffee shops, my bank, great restaurants, and the public library all within walking distance for us.

Feels rural while still being at edge of town. Have great access to microbreweries with great beer and good food
