We got glowing reviews from my friend.

Tourists in Bozeman

It's a mixed bag most of the time.

Bozeman might be one of the largest cities in Montana, but it's also a year-round tourist attraction.

People come in the winter to experience the ski resorts and in the summer for the national parks, fly fishing, and other outdoor activities.

We have seen a steady growth of tourists thanks to movies and TV shows like Yellowstone, showing off the natural beauty of Big Sky Country.

The tourist industry is booming, but there are some downsides.

Some tourists come to Montana and appreciate what we locals enjoy daily. Some act like Big Sky Country is an adventure park where they can do whatever they want.

We've all seen and heard stories about what tourists say, but I have never experienced them firsthand.

Until now.

First-Time Reaction To Bozeman

My friend from college visited me this past Memorial Day. It was her first time in Montana.

She brought her dog and wanted to try to experience as much of Bozeman as she could.

We did everything we could in two days. We ate good food, checked out breweries, and took my friend's dog to the park to run around.

Here are some of my favorite quotes from the weekend.

Visiting Snowfill Dog Park,

'How is this a dog park? The views are insane, the park is massive, and every owner is smiling. I'm jealous.

Every restaurant we ate at,

'Why is every staff member so tall and beautiful? Is it the fresh Rocky Mountain Air? Is it in the water?'

Every brewery we drank at,

How can I get these beers in Idaho? Why does every beer I have drank better than anything I've ever had? I'm jealous

These were just a few of the highlights from my friend's trip to Bozeman for the first time.

Let's say she is planning a return trip soon. She wants to check out the hot springs, other restaurants, and experiences Bozeman offers.
