About this property

Stony Broke Ranch private retreat, eight miles from Glacier

Our rental is a one level beautiful home, at the base of Desert Mountain, on a family ranch, established in 1955. Abbott creek flows through our ranch, and is filled with tiny brook trout. Our private location is three miles from Hungry Horse Reservoir, and eight miles from the Glacier National Park entrance.
We are nestled off of Spotted Bear Road, a quiet, and gorgeous setting on twenty two, private acres, with national forests hugging our property. Very private home, with endless natural surroundings.
Our floor plan is open, with a spacious professional kitchen, and large, comfortable living room. Twenty three foot ceilings, and floor to ceiling windows, to bring the outdoors in.
Walking, hiking, riding, and all wonderful outdoor activities await.
Horses, and many other wild, and native animals, give a great feel, and entertainment. We are proud to share our family ranch with you, your friends and family.
THIS HOME IS CLEANED BY THE OWNER.
CLEANLINESS IS OF TOP PRIORITY.
Additional cleaning supplies will be provided, for the use of our guests, for additional peace of mind.
We understand our guests want to feel safe, and comfortable in their home away from home.

Everything was superb. The home was beautiful, and the location unbeatable. Unlike most VRBO’s I’ve stayed at, this home felt loved and not sterile. Melissa thought of everything with lots of little perks that make it feel just like home. Only 14 minutes to West Glacier entrance. Hosts communicated whenever needed. Thank you Melissa and Beau!

National Park Trip

This house is absolutely perfect to access the west side of Glacier. I had several questions about the property and surrounding areas and Melissa was quick to respond with very helpful information. Communication prior to and during the trip was amazing! The cleanliness of the property was immaculate and the amenities provided made our trip even better!

The house is wonderful. It is literally a 15 minute drive from Glacier National Park. The two bedrooms and bathrooms are on opposite ends of the house and there is a great room in the middle. Our host was magnificent. The house was impeccably clean. There were plenty of spices and cooking essentials; she even made me a special blend of herbs which I cherished. The hot tub is great with lots of bubbles. The fire pit comes pre-stocked with logs and kindling. We had a problem with the Internet when we were there and it was literally fixed within the hour. Also an important tip: There is no need to drive down to Kalispell to pick up good groceries, meats, and vegetables. Instead, there is a Super 1 Food Store in Columbia Falls on the way from the Airport to this location. You can stock up on everything there and save yourself a round trip to downtown Kalispell. Highly recommend this house!

West glacier getaway

I can’t say enough positive things about this VRBO. The home has everything for a comfortable stay close to the west entrance. The owner thought of everything and the home was so clean. The beds are very comfortable and we enjoyed watching the deer every night right outside.
