This apartment offered our family Great lake and Mountain views. It was very well furnished and offered any extras that we needed. It was a convenient location to get to west glacier or to Big Fork for shopping/restaurants. We had a great stay!
Overall it was a great experience. We are sad that we didnt get to see glacier national park as you need a reservation to even drive through the park. The owners on the property were very accommodating and nice! You will be greeted by a very friendly dog named cooper when you arrive 😀
We enjoyed staying at this Bigfork apartment! After a day of hiking, it was the perfect place to relax. The kitchen had all we needed. Our only concern was the water smelled strongly of metal. There was a filter in the kitchen so we used it for coffee and drank bottled water. I reported our concern to the manager.
Great stay! Gorgeous views! Can’t wait to come back.
Great location. BEAUTIFUL views. Close enough to GNP to be convenient. Host and his family were very friendly and conversational but also provided plenty of privacy. The first night we chatted with them and the rest of the stay we didn’t even know they were there. Communication for booking was great- they even helped brainstorm ideas for car rental stuff.
We enjoyed coffee on the balcony, drove to glacier for hikes, swam over to the island at their property. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Slept well. The place had everything we needed- even a floaty for swimming over to the island. Jewel basin is right down the road and definitely worth checking out.
Thanks for the great stay!
Our trip didn’t go completely as planned but the place was sweet and everyone was nice. We ended up having boat issues and decided to forgo boating. The owners offered any supplies & space they could to work on it. The owner and property manager were very attentive. We decided to try to enjoy the space and vacation instead of working on the boat. Sadly, we all got terrible swimmers itch from swimming at the property. I don’t know that it could have been prevented, but the owner was aware of it from growing up there, so perhaps it’s something to inquire about prior to as it could be seasonal.
This is a lovely, SPOTLESS rental right on the lake! It was so awesome to sit on the balcony in the morning and evening overlooking the gorgeous lake. The owner was so accommodating and even had the fridge stocked with some essentials to enjoy for breakfast the first day! That was absolutely above and beyond, very unexpected. There was also a welcome basket with info on the local area and yummy packaged snacks. The kitchen was furnished with everything one would need. Only used the king bedroom — the bed was incredibly comfortable and outfitted with high end bedding. The flatscreen tv in the bedroom was enormous — what a treat. Laundry supplies were furnished for the washer and dryer as were shampoo and conditioner — also a very pleasant surprise. I took a swim in the lake and used the beach towels supplied. In other words, the owner thought of everything! We’ll definitely return — Echo Lake is minutes from the super quaint town of Bigfork and its shops, bakeries and restaurants. Thank you for a fantastic stay!
My parents, niece, and I had a wonderful stay at this cabin! The location was wonderful and it was very easy for us to explore Glacier National Park and the area around the Flathead Valley from this property. The host was great and was easy to communicate with. My niece and I stayed in the room with the bunkbeds and were very comfortable. My parents brought some inflatables and spent a couple evenings relaxing and floating in the lake. I would definitely stay here again!

This was a great small apartment over a garage. View of Echo Lake was tranquil. We watched ospreys in their nest and saw deer swim across the lake to an island at twilight. The apartment had all the amenities we needed, and the property managers were helpful. Bed in the master was quite comfortable. There are stairs to the apartment, which could pose a problem for those with impaired mobility. Likewise, the lake access was a bit rough for those with limited mobility.
Very quite, clean & cozy apartment above the garage. Bring your fishing pole and try your luck on the private lake. Echo
Lake's Cafe is a few miles away and they serve up great food. Great place to stay and we hope to come back.
This lakeside retreat was the perfect place to rest, recharge, and rejuvenate! Very thoughtful amenities such as lots of towels, pool towels and needed items to cook while away from home. Small details such as coffee, snacks, and a couple of refreshments were quite the treat.
Wonderful location and stay. The only negative things I would note are the very uncomfortable beds and pillows and the AC unit not really reaching the bedroom. It was difficult to get sleep there, but everything else was amazing!
