Trying to choose the right floor plan can feel harder than picking the neighborhood itself. You may already know you like Anglers Homes in Canyon River, but deciding how much space you need, how many bedrooms make sense, or whether a bigger garage matters can still be a real challenge. The good news is that the Phase 6-7 lineup gives you clear options, along with room to personalize interiors and exteriors and modify plans within architectural guidelines. Let’s break down which Anglers Homes floor plan may fit your life best.
Why Anglers Homes Stand Out
Anglers Homes Phase 6-7 is part of Canyon River in Missoula’s 59802 area, and the current phase includes eight floor plans. The homes are built around open-concept living, a primary bedroom with ensuite, a second bedroom or office/den, optional bonus room space, and fully landscaped exteriors.
That means your decision is often less about whether a plan can adapt and more about how much flexibility, square footage, and garage space you want from the start. Buyers can also choose an existing floor plan and modify it within architectural guidelines, which adds another layer of customization.
Start With Your Daily Routine
Before you compare square footage, think about how you live every day. Do you want fewer bedrooms and more simplicity? Do you need a dedicated office, guest space, or hobby room? Is garage storage a major factor for bikes, golf gear, tools, or seasonal equipment?
Anglers Homes also offers a practical lifestyle advantage beyond the walls of the home. Current marketing materials note HOA support for mowing, watering, and snow removal of sidewalks, driveways, and up to front doors, which can make day-to-day upkeep feel more manageable.
Best Plans for Low-Maintenance Living
Blackfoot for Simplicity Plus Storage
The Blackfoot is the clearest fit if you want to simplify without giving up comfort. It offers 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,849 square feet, making it the only two-bedroom plan in the lineup.
It also includes an oversized three-car garage, which makes it stand out even more. If you want less bedroom count but still need room for storage, hobbies, or a workshop setup, Blackfoot checks a lot of boxes.
For many buyers, this plan hits a sweet spot. You get a smaller bedroom count, one-level living appeal, and practical garage capacity without moving into the largest size tier.
Best Plans for Compact Three-Bedroom Needs
South Fork for the Smallest Footprint
If you want three bedrooms in the smallest listed plan, look first at the South Fork. It offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,747 square feet, making it the smallest plan by square footage.
This option may appeal to buyers who want sleeping space for guests, work-from-home needs, or flexible household use without stepping into a 2,000-plus-square-foot layout. It keeps the footprint efficient while still staying within the three-bedroom category.
Trail Creek for a Little More Room
The Trail Creek gives you 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,799 square feet. It is slightly larger than South Fork, which can make it a good in-between option if you want compact living but prefer a bit more breathing room.
If South Fork feels just a little too tight on paper, Trail Creek may be worth a closer look. It stays in the compact group while adding modest extra space.
Deer Creek for a Middle Ground
The Deer Creek offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,837 square feet. Among the compact three-bedroom choices, it sits as a middle-ground version of the same idea.
This plan can make sense if you want a manageable footprint but do not want the very smallest option. It gives you another step up in size without jumping too far from the compact category.
Best Plans for Garage-Heavy Lifestyles
Rock Creek for Gear and Hobby Space
If garage space is high on your list, the Rock Creek deserves serious attention. It offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,864 square feet, plus an oversized three-car garage.
That makes it one of only two plans in the lineup with a three-car garage, alongside Blackfoot. Among the three-bedroom plans, Rock Creek stands out as the strongest garage-and-space hybrid.
For buyers with golf carts, outdoor gear, bikes, tools, or hobby equipment, that extra garage bay can shape your day-to-day experience as much as interior square footage. If storage matters, Rock Creek may rise to the top quickly.
Best Plans for More Elbow Room
Clearwater for Extra Bath Convenience
The Clearwater offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 2,023 square feet. It sits just above the 2,000-square-foot mark and adds an extra half bath, which can be especially useful when guests visit or multiple people are sharing the home during busy parts of the day.
It is also one of only two plans with 2.5 baths. If that extra half bath is important to you, Clearwater should be on your short list.
Stillwater for Balanced Space
The Stillwater offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 2,016 square feet. It falls into the mid-size group and reads as a balanced option for buyers who want more room without choosing the largest plan available.
This can be a strong fit if you want a little extra space in the main living areas while keeping the overall layout straightforward. It sits in a useful middle lane between compact and large.
Clark Fork for Maximum Space
The Clark Fork is the largest listed plan in the current Anglers Homes lineup. It offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 2,417 square feet.
It is also one of only two plans with 2.5 baths, and it is the only 2.5-bath option in the largest size tier. If you host often, want a dedicated office, or simply prefer more open living space, Clark Fork gives you the most room to work with.

How Lot Groupings May Shape Your Choice
The current phase materials group the plans into two lot bands. Blackfoot, Clark Fork, Deer Creek, and Rock Creek are shown on lots 58-69 and 108-129, with approximately 9,000-plus-square-foot lots.
Clearwater, South Fork, Stillwater, and Trail Creek are shown on lots 20-31, with approximately 10,000-plus-square-foot lots. If you are narrowing your options, it helps to look at both the floor plan and the lot grouping together rather than treating them as separate decisions.
Remember That the Baseline Can Flex
One of the most helpful things about Anglers Homes is that the brochures show a starting point, not always the final result. Official materials say interiors and exteriors are customizable, and buyers can modify plans within architectural guidelines.
There is also a current built-home example at 1100 Anglers Bend Way that shows how the product can expand beyond the brochure baseline. That home is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath, 2,715-square-foot ranch with a main-level primary suite, open living areas, an upstairs loft or bonus suite, and a three-car garage.
So if you love the general feel of a plan but want to explore changes, that conversation may be worth having early. In Anglers Homes, the right fit is not always about choosing a plan exactly as drawn.
Why the Missoula Location Matters
Choosing a floor plan is really about choosing how you want to live in this part of Missoula. Canyon River is positioned in a Clark Fork River setting only minutes from Missoula, and current community materials highlight proximity to downtown Missoula, the airport, Marshall Mountain, and Kettlehouse Amphitheater.
The broader Canyon River setting also includes the golf community experience, with Canyon River Golf Club describing 18 scenic holes through Hellgate Canyon, plus a pro shop, food at The Den, league play, lessons, and junior and adult clinics. If your lifestyle includes golf, outdoor recreation, or easy access to Missoula amenities, the floor plan decision becomes part of a bigger picture.
How to Narrow Your Choice
If you are comparing Anglers Homes floor plans, start with these questions:
- Do you want 2 bedrooms or 3?
- Is a three-car garage a must-have?
- Would an extra half bath improve daily life?
- Do you want the smallest footprint possible, or more room to spread out?
- Are you hoping to customize a baseline plan?
- Which lot grouping aligns with the plan you like most?
Usually, the best fit becomes clearer once you rank your top two or three priorities. For some buyers, that is square footage. For others, it is garage space, fewer bedrooms, or a layout that can support guests, hobbies, or a home office.
