My friend and I loved the convenience of proximity to Glacier National Park entrance. The home was comfortable, and really appreiciated the extra amenities provided (coffee and water). Loved the side deck and seeing a few deer everyday. Also appreciated that we could check in a little earlier than 4:00, since there were no guests staying the previous night of our arrival.

This house is super cute! It had everything we needed. The location is convenient. The host was very nice. We stayed 4 nights and both beds were very comfortable. Next time we visit GNP, I will book this house again. It was close enough to Kalispell, Whitefish & west entrance of National Park. 5 Stars!!

Location is great! Beautiful property. A family of deer behind the home. Host communicated well and was responsive. The only thing that was challenging was poor cell service and slow WiFi. I had some work to do while I was there and it took 3x as long as it would have at home which was frustrating.

Great Rental

July 2025 decent proximity to West Glacier entrance (about 20 minutes), and about 5 to restaurants and shopping in Columbia Falls. Host was attentive and addressed our needs. The highway noise is tolerable, but if you’re a light sleeper and like windows opens, choose the back bedroom. Saw deer on sight and definitely felt safe.

Great Location

This house was clean and perfect for our needs. It was a quick 15 min drive to Glacier National Park and plenty of stores and restaurants close by. Everything we needed was already at the house. A short drive to White Fish, which was nice. I also liked the gate to the driveway so random people didn’t pull in. Made me feel safer! The beds were also really comfortable!

Amazing stay and close to everything!

I really enjoyed the location, was very convenient for west glacier visits but still close to towns and there are plenty accomodations nearby for food and drink. House was well stocked too and made us feel right at home. The cute and cozy atmosphere was delightful to relax in after a day of exploring one of our best national parks.
