The historic rental is located in Big Hole Valley

Friends Tim Montana and Billy F Gibbons, rocking guitarists and vocalists both, recently acquired the historic bar and hotel in Montana known as The Wise River Club which has been in operation for over 100 years. The entertaining duo offered their energy and resources to keep history rolling in Montana’s Big Hole River Valley.

“Our aim is to give WRC patrons a true Montana experience with lodging, food, drink and music,” shares Montana. “It’s a place where guests can let their hair down and enjoy everything the Big Sky Country has to offer.”

“Tim and I have both played in quite a few honkytonks over the years so it’s high time to ensure Wise River Club’s place of history,” adds Gibbons. “The entire club is something quite special and now the welcome mat has been definitively deployed. The Wise River vibe is perfect to share with the rest of the world.”

Montana and Gibbons have been making music and trouble together for more than ten years. Their initial foray was a collectively self-referential song titled “This Beard Came Here To Party.” The Montana-Gibbons composition went on to become the de facto theme song of the hirsute World Champion Boston Red Sox More recently, the two created the popular line of hot sauce, branded “Whisker Bomb,” now a supermarket success. The Whisker Bomb line includes their “Classic,” and “Have Mercy Hot” pepper sauces as well as “Sweet Heat” and “Blanco” BBQ sauces plus “Scorpion Garlic” and “Green Machine” salsas. Those potent products are proudly served in select restaurants and grocery stores and, of course, at the Wise River Club.

The Wise River Club offers world-class barbeque, and on-site cabins for rental lodging with a real “old west” ambiance. It remains a perfect place to explore all the Big Hole Valley offers including, fishing, hiking, hunting, camping, snowmobiling, and even panning for gold.
