This property was more than promised. We were thrilled when we arrived. We had three couples and stayed for a week. The land around the property was lovely and the house was comfortable and spacious for three couples. We really loved the main room with a roll up door that opened to a screened in porch. Shea was quick to respond when we had questions. Looking forward to going back.

I can’t say enough good things about the Spencer Mountain cabin.We wanted to be outside town and in a mountain environment. The setting was beautiful and the attention to detail building the cabin was evident.Communication was the best I have ever experienced with VRBOI hope to return someday.

Our family of 6, enjoyed a wonderful time at the Spence cabin. It was spacious and warm in decor and we enjoyed the open spaces. After a full day of activities we looked forward to relaxing on the property by the river or on the huge covered deck in the Montana afternoon sunshine. The location is ideal for seeing parks, lakes and Glacier National Park. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cookware. Plenty of room to eat our meals on the bar/island. Our whole family enjoyed the beauty of their property and special touches in the home. We thank Shea and Jonathan for sharing their home with us.

Slice of Heaven

Shea was a very responsive host. The house was amazing! We loved opening the glass garage door to the big screened in porch….so unique. The deck was huge and provided a great view of nature. The house was fully stocked and clean. Conveniently located close to Whitefish and just an hour away from Glacier. Highly recommend!

GNP Boys Trip!

Myself and 7 friends had a blast exploring the area and GNP! The cabin was the perfect place to use as a home base during our trip. Just far enough away from Whitefish/GNP to feel private, yet close enough to adventure and see everything we had planned. Shea was a great host and worked with us quickly to resolve any questions we had. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Cabin with Great Hosts

We had a fantastic summer stay at the Spencer Mountain Cabin. The pictures don't do the inside of the house justice - it is super well-maintained, very clean, and appointed with everything you could need. The hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had local information and were comfortable. Good location close to both outdoors and in-town activities. Extremely pleased!

Absolutely Perfect!

An amazing experience and property! So spacious and perfect for our group of 6. The best aspect for us was the screened-in patio overlooking the farm/forest. Even saw a bear out there! Amazing location as well; no less than 15 minutes to downtown whitefish and 45 minutes to the west entrance of Glacier National Park. Highly recommend and would love to come back!

Fantastic Cabin

The Spencer Mountain Cabin was the perfect place for our family vacation. The cabin was clean and beautiful with nice linens and a fully stocked kitchen. Five stars isn’t really a fair rating, this cabin deserves more! The house decorations and furnishings gave the feel of a wonderful mountain retreat. The location was quiet, yet close enough to everything we wanted to do. I would highly recommend the Spencer Mountain Cabin to anyone looking for the perfect Montana location.

Spencer Mountain Cabin

The Spencer Mountain Cabin was the PERFECT choice for our exploration of the Glacier NP and Flathead Valley. We traveled with another couple for our hiking adventures. The cabin is tastefully decorated - very comfortable and squeaky clean. Perfect remote location but close to town as well. Shea did a tremendous job communicating and keeping us updated throughout our stay. Thank you to Shea and Jonathan for hosting! Look forward to our return!

Great stay!

Our family of 6 really enjoyed our stay at the Spencer Mountain cabin! We were only a short drive into Whitefish area and not too far from Glacier NP. Our family loved the corn hole game and ping pong! The kitchen was well equipped for making our own meals, along with the charcoal grill outside. Plenty of sleeping space and places to chill and hang out! We would love to stay here again if we make it back to Montana! Shea was a great host and answered questions and gave great suggestions on the area!

Country Home along Stillwater Creek

We had a wonderful time at the listed property and in adjacent community of Whitefish. The accommodations at referenced property were welcoming and homey. We enjoyed time together on the porches with meals and viewing the meadow below. The home is modern, well kept, and has plenty of beds for a family. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and the stove made cooking in easy. I would recommend the property if you are looking for a place to get away and relax.

Quiet and relaxing

This was nestled in the woods and was so quiet. While sitting on the screened in porch, it was so quiet that I heard splashing in the nearby river. Shortly thereafter, a bear walks across the property. Lots of wildlife! Owners had amazing communication. Amenities were top notch and perfect for our family. It was a great place to unwind and disconnect. Perfect vacation get away.

Amazing Stay

We had an incredible experience both at the cabin and in the area. Shae was super to work with and the cabin was exactly as pictured. We saw deer in the mornings and loved listening to the wind chimes on the deck. Kitchen has all the furnishings as we cooked breakfast each day there. The house was super clean and overall it was exactly what we were looking and hoping for! Thanks so much for hosting us and providing such a first class experience! We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to our friends. Guy
