great place for family, only minor inconveniences

great place, feels like home. location is amazing, and the beds were comfy. minor issues that are not a huge deal (1 spoon in the whole house - we referred to it as the "uni-spoon", 2 total bath towels in the house), but otherwise a super place to stay

Hideaway

The cabin was nice, as someone mentioned before, was like going to Grandmas cabin in the woods. The grill was removed because of fire restrictions, so that was a bummer. The views and quiet are amazing. It is a trek down to the lake, which may be a struggle for older individuals , but all in all it is a very nice residence.

Great week with the family!

We loved the home! It wasn't until we got there that we realized there was no AC, so things were warm by the end of the day. Trash became an issue on day 2, but the property managers responded a few days later to outline what to do. Overall - we loved the house. Loved the location.

Pros: very comfortable beds. Very clean linens and towels. Nice, new bathroom. Beautiful view of the lake. Cons. Cabin and furniture is old and outdated. Old brown shag carpet, very dark rooms. Some parts were dirty, cobwebs, dirt/grass on carpet. Should note that the deck is separated from the house. Deck, stairs and dock were unkept and messy. Had to walk around lots of geese poop on the dock. An ok place but overpriced, not prepped for visitors and wished we would have looked else where. Disappointed and underwhelmed.

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the comfortable beds, clean linens, updated bathroom, and the beautiful lake views. We’re sorry that other aspects of the cabin didn’t meet your expectations. Our listing photos are accurate to the home, but we appreciate your comments about cleanliness and the outdoor areas — this is not the experience we want for our guests, and we’ll address these concerns with our team right away. Thank you again for your input and for helping us improve for future stays. Best, Auburn F. Guest Service Manager.

Family fun near Glacier

This quaint cabin was a great spot for my family to rest and relax in between day trips around Glacier. It's 4 bedrooms, spacious living room and fully stocked kitchen gave us everything we needed. The location was very convenient to all of our planned activities and my kids even enjoyed fishing on the dock.

4th of July Summer Fam Trip

The backyard and deck, dock experience was great, and the house was charming. We loved it. The management group was helpful, responsive and available. Our only critique is that the house just wasn’t kept clean. We had cobwebs inside and outside, lots of dust, the water didn’t run in the sink of the one bathroom, and it just kinda felt like we were camping a little bit, especially bc there was no AC, something that we didn’t realize and it was unusually hot. Besides a sever deep clean of the interior and exterior, we had an amazing time!

Amazing outdoor area

Echo lake is fantastic! We enjoyed the outdoor space of this property to its fullest. Paddling on the lake anytime. It sits in a nice little cove. Sitting outside for all meals and sitting around the fire pit nightly. Sunsets rocked! It appears the house is someone’s home more than a rental. The smoke detectors were all dead. The shower curtain was dirty. There were NO bugs or rodents. The carpet is musty. But we spent most of our time outside so the place grew on us like going to grandma’s house. The property manager was super responsive and replaced smoke detectors immediately. Overall we had a great time!

Perfect Lake Get Away!

This was a perfect location for a brief get away. The outdoor setting was incredible and extensive (decks, fire pit, dock, etc) - we barely spent anytime inside! Kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, gadgets - we had everything we needed or wanted. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!
