Great location and fantastic view

Great location for visiting Glacier NP. Close to east side park areas and close to GTTS road to get to west side. Comfortable 1 bedroom house with amazing view of the mountains. The wildlife that may wander by is a nice bonus.

We LOVED this place!!!

Perfect view of Glacier National park from the porch. Only a short drive to St. Mary or Many Glacier. The cabin itself is compact, but has everything you need and more. It is pretty much perfect by our standards. I highly recommend this property and we plan to rent this place again. The only possible downside is it’s remote setting on the east side of the park. We viewed that as a positive though! I’m guessing there are a lot of renters just like us that want to get away from the crowds, but have easy fast access to the best trails in the park. This is the place if that fits your concept.

One with nature

The house was removed from any streets or lights with just a couple other similar houses on either side. It felt like you were camping because you were in the middle of nature, but didn't have to sleep on the ground and had a shower. The house had all of the needed amenities, a wonderful view and great decks to sit out and watch sunsets. The beds were pretty comfortable and it was great to have a washer and dryer. It was pretty warm when we were there and only an AC unit in one bedroom. The fan cooled things down eventually, but it was pretty warm when we were there. Otherwise, the house was great and the items the host provided were very thoughtful (bear spray, laundry detergent, shower supplies, coffee, etc.)

Exactly as described. Great communication and response with minor issues that arose during stay. We came after the end of the season and should have gotten all of our groceries on the west side of the park before heading over (did not find everything we would have liked in Browning, but that was our poor planning nothing related to the rental property or host).

We absolutely loved the property. The home was furnished with everything we needed. We got in late so the red lights helped us find our way. We didn’t have much time to explore the property because we were on our way to the park the next morning. We would definitely stay here again.

This was a delightful stay, close to the park and very well appointed. The home was very clean and the kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed for cooking, including spices, oil, and coffee. The beds were comfortable and there were many extra nice touches, such as a great Bluetooth speaker, bear spray, walking sticks, and a hiking Bluetooth speaker to keep from surprising the bears. They thought of everything!

Set atop a hill facing the Lewis Range, this cozy home is a rustic sanctuary. A well appointed kitchen and laundry, two comfy bedrooms with seating area, and porches make this a perfect respite. The advertised amenities are functional and reliable. The driveway is a fairly long gravel path, albeit nothing that will cause a sedan to bottom out, and the view is well worth the effort.

Great spot!

My family of four stayed in this cabin, while my sister’s family of eight stayed in the Glacier Chalet next door. It was the perfect spot for our families with plenty of room for the kiddos to toss frisbee, etc. Jon was responsive and helpful, and the check in and out was a breeze. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful, clean property. We had a great time!

The view from this property is spectacular! Well worth getting up a little ahead of sunrise just to see the alpenglow. :) Even the drive back to the cabin is a treat. And the location itself can hardly be beat; it's extremely convenient to both the Many Glacier and St. Mary Lake areas of GNP. The property itself was clean and quite good overall. It was nice having a washer and dryer available. Water pressure was good, and the water quality was excellent! Very cold out of the tap, which was nice, and tastes great as well. The only drawback in my mind is that this cabin doesn't really have anywhere comfortable to sit as a group. There's a small two-person sofa in the second upstairs bedroom, but if your group is larger than that, you'll have to use the dining stools downstairs. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay at this property. The host was very prompt with communication as well! Finally, just a tip about this area in general: Unless you plan to eat out every meal, stock up on groceries MILES before you arrive. There's only one "grocery store" nearby, which had about eight mostly unstocked aisles, with absolutely outrageous prices. (Literally $11.99 for a single loaf of bread!) Bottom line is, between very limited stock and high prices, feeding yourself won't be an option unless you bring in groceries from far away. But I digress. To summarize, we loved this property, and would absolutely consider coming again if we ever make it back to Glacier!

Unbelievable view!

Property is in a great location for Many Glacier & St Mary’s. Driveway is a scenic drive in and of itself. We were unaware from listing of the close proximity to other houses & owner’s home. There was a very loud family enjoying the hot tub each evening in the cabin next door. We also had no hot water! Tough to not be able to enjoy a relaxing hot shower after a day of hiking…..the cabin is cozy. Overall the view & location trumped all these setbacks. Jon was very apologetic about the water.

Amazing location! Great amenities and host!

This was the absolute perfect location for our visit to Glacier National Park. Unbelievable views from the decks. We saw so much wildlife within 100 yards of the cabin (deer, moose, grizzly, horses). Jon was an excellent communicator and we very much enjoyed some time together one night at a bonfire. The sunsets are beautiful and the cabin was exceptionally clean with great amenities. Highly recommend a stay here! We hope to revisit.

A peaceful refuge

We loved this VRBO! Great location to access Many Glacier. We had absolutely everything we needed from a fully equipped kitchen, to sunscreen, bug and bear spray, as well as washer/dryer. The beds were extremely comfortable and we could recharge from hiking and driving the GTSR. Perfectly suited for our family of 4. Our host was available for everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again.

Great Location to East Glacier Hikes

We had a wonderful stay! Views are incredible and location was fantastic, making it a quick trip to all of the East park entrances. House was clean and it was obvious how much care is taken to ensure guests have everything they need during their stay. Only complaint is that it had been listed as sleeping 6. We are a family of 5 and made it work, but it was not ideal with only enough beds and chairs for 4 people.

Glacier gorgeous tiny house

The house feels very remote without being too far off the beaten path. If your focus is to be near Many Glaciers, this place can’t be beat. It’s concise, clean, and well-appointed. The view is beyond belief. We squeezed in 5 of us, but it comfortably sleeps 4 in 2 beds.
