There are countless ways to enjoy the great outdoors in Montana. From epic hikes to leisurely strolls, river trips to luxury resorts, nature lovers will love it here. The one thing people frequently overlook is the access to water. Despite being landlocked, Montana is home to some of the most beautiful ways to cool down. And, one of my favorites is enjoying some of the many lake beaches in Montana. This one, located in Polson, is simply lovely. Visit for a quick view, or plan on spending the day. Either way, you’ll remember why this state is so great.

Welcome to Boettcher Park, located on the southern shore of Flathead Lake in Polson.

The beach here is rocky but leads directly into the water where small, gentle waves come to shore.
