Lifestyle
Experience the Southwest Montana Lifestyle.
Living at The Knolls is somewhat like being on vacation every day. We want you to enjoy yourself. Go for a walk in the park. Linger over a sunrise with that extra cup of coffee. Stroll along the park trail and watch a spectacular sunset. Go mountain biking, Nordic skiing, fly fishing, or whitewater rafting. Attend the Opera, evening Art Walks, Shakespeare in the Park, or study Dinosaurs. All of the above wrapped in those glorious views known only to Big Sky country.
