Five Mile Hotel - America's Most Famous Roadhouse

Built in 1905, five miles south of Butte's bustling commercial district, Montana's Five Mile Hotel became America's most famous roadhouse due to the hard work of Austrian immigrant Frank Cash and his family, who owned this establishment for over 90 years.

I cannot do the Five Mile's amazing story justice in this short description, but here is a link to a Richard Gibson article that does a good job scratching the surface.

In spite of the it's fame and excellent construction, this incredible building was nearly destroyed on purpose in 2025 by the same taxpayer-financed demolition mob that has attacked so many valuable landmark buildings across America in recent decades.

We purchased the Five Mile in the spring of 2025 to rescue it from this fate and we urge anybody reading this to take courage and do whatever you can to block publicly-funded demolition contracts in your town.

This fight is where the rubber meets the road in the larger war to save generational wealth in America, and winning it is imperative to saving the country.

In a time where society has been largely duped into believing that mass self-destruction is normal, this is one of the most meaningful endeavors you can undertake.

It is because we bought the Five Mile under these short-notice circumstances that we are obliged to restore it gradually with it's own income. If you are considering booking this listing, please expect the 2nd floor hotel area and dance hall to be in a state of renovation.

The building is currently used for private events and is pictured without beds but we can provide these and other things by request.

VRBO guests have exclusive use of the entire building and the two acres of outdoor space adjacent to it.

Please allow up to 48 hours for a response if inquiring on this site.
