Super convenient location to downtown big fork. Easy walk to coffee in the morning. Condo was very clean, kitchen was well stocked. The bathrooms and bedrooms were large making it a good place for families with smaller kids. Only complaint was the bedsheets were scratchy and very worn out, could use a refresh there. We also used the local boar rental nearby and it was so handy to just walk down to the dock to meet the boat.

We’re also happy the nearby boat rental made enjoying the area even easier. We appreciate your feedback about the bedsheets and will be sure to share it with our team. We hope to welcome you and your family back again! Best, Jannen E

Hi Norm, we are sorry that the photos didn't match up with what you were expecting the view to be from the home. I apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused. The photos are more suppose to represent the surrounding area as the Marina Cay units are located on/near the marina of Flathead Lake. We would love to have you back in a home with a spectacular view! Best, Summer V. Guest Service Manager

BigFork Marina Cay

Place is clean . Easy check in. No hangers upon arrival but after communicating through the tablet some were delivered. No real view. If you need a place to stay in BigFork this should do.

Highly recommend. Beautiful spot. Great location. Thank you! P.S. The coffee pot was missing. That just had us going out to explore town more and see how great those shops are, too, so it all worked out!

Nice accomodation but disappointing management response

The property was nice and well maintained. The A/C unit in the master bedroom continually tripped the breaker, thus it did not work. We booked this property in July specifically because it had air conditioning. Management was slow to respond to the problem, finally fixing the issue after 6 nights with no air conditioning in master bedroom. Front door keypad never worked and management said it was impossible to fix during our stay. GFI for microwave tripped multiple times.

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you found the property nice, but we're truly sorry for the issues with the A/C, front door keypad, and microwave. We understand how frustrating this was, especially during summer, and apologize for the delays in fixing these problems. We've taken steps to prevent this from happening again and appreciate your feedback. Best, Summer V. Guest Service Manager

Unit was not cleaned

The unit was a nice unit, but had not been thoroughly cleaned. Ice cream and dirty ice were left in freezer and it did not look like refrigerator had been wiped down. Dusting was done on top of surfaces but not on shelves underneath (ex. coffee table). Lots of dust not just one time not cleaning. Floors were clean were you could see them, but very dusting and dirty underneath couches and chairs. I didn't complain at the time because we were only using this unit as a hotel unit. My sister has house in Lakeside which is where we hung out and ate all of our meals. We literally only slept at the unit. Another complaint is that there were no extra blankets. I do realize it is summer and probably not necessary for most people, but I am recovering from chemo and could have used an extra blanket. If the place were cleaned properly, I would have given you good reviews. Don't worry I am not a YELP user, so I won't be posting anything bad on line.

Bigfork

Nice stay for our family. We were disappointed that all the businesses and restaurants were closed or offered limited hours, so getting dinner after a long day at Glacier was a challenge. Overall, a nice property.

As we are all noticing, staffing shortage has been a thing all across the country lately. Usually, Bigfork is in full bloom during the summer with all its restaurants and shops open for the high traffic season. However, we have seen a lot of places having to close early due to no staff. Although, there are still quite a few places still operating at their same hours. Above all, we are so happy to hear you had a nice stay with us and enjoyed the property! The Marina Cays have a great location and atmosphere.

Family time

It was an excellent place to stay. It would have been nice to have had broom and or vacuum. For the cost of the cleaning fee, there would have not been anything under the couch. Thank you so much.
