Great lodging right on the river.

The cabin is nicely furnished with comfortable beds and a well stocked kitchen. We liked that it was isolated from traffic and situated right on the river. Overall, it was a great place to stay.

Beautiful!

Such a relaxing home! Honestly the photos don’t do even it justice. We stayed a few nights in glacier National park at a hotel, and then moved here for two nights at the end of our trip. It’s in a great location, remote and by the river, but still only about 5-10 minutes from Columbia falls and 20-30 minutes from the whitefish area. LOVED our stay and loved the area. We’ll be back for sure!

Outstanding Cabin

This cabin was wonderful inside and outside. The river right outside the backyard was so peaceful. There are multiple seating areas from which to enjoy it. The cabin had everything we needed during our stay. The host provided welcome gifts and sign. The bed is very large and comfortable. Communication with the host was also great. I hope we can come back sometime.

Wonderful location and cabin on the flathead river

Amazing hosts and a very comfortable cabin in an incredible location. The cabin is lovely with great space in the kitchen and very comfortable beds. Easy and quick access to both entry points to GNP. Will definitely go back if in that area again. The river front location is unbelievably beautiful.

Glacier Park Retreat

We loved this property for the whole family. We spent the vast majority of the day -- dawn to dusk -- in the park, but the cabin was a perfect place to retreat at night. The views of the river from the living room, balcony, hammock and bank were a family-favorite, even though we only saw a bald eagle and some elk crossing.

Beautiful Property

Well stocked and very comfortable. Loved the location right on the river. I would come back again just to sit in the chairs along the river in the early mornings and late evenings. My kids loved the hammock in the back yard. Thanks for sharing your place with us.

glacier trip

We wanted a place near glacier park and this was a great location. We appreciated the cleanliness of the home. Carol had everything we needed to feel right at home. The best part was the beautiful scenery out the window. It was gorgeous! She had plenty of places to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful scenery. We loved using the fire pit at night. We would highly recommend and loved our stay there!

Glacier’s Edge cabin

Love the very nice rustic location of cabin with a wonderful view of the mountains & river, well maintained, accompanied by modern amenities & well stocked pantry. The welcome sign & gifts were a nice personal touch & greatly appreciated. The owners were very accommodating & prompt with responses. I wish my family & I could have stayed longer to really soak in this place but glad to have experienced the wonders of the Glacier National Park.

Wonderful quiet location with great views!

We loved our stay here! We wish we could have stayed longer. Wonderful location. Close to town, restaurants, and glacier national Park but far enough away for privacy and quiet. It was so peaceful here. Personally I was more impressed with this place than I was glacier national Park. We could have hung out at the house all day. The large picture windows make you feel like you are outside by the river when its too cold to go outside. Everything you could possibly need at this rental. Obviously a lot of thought and care has gone into this place. Highly recommend!

Great spot on the flathead

Cozy and well appointed. Photos accurately depict stunning views and proximity to the river which is only a few short steps away. The property is in a completely quiet and rural setting while maintaining convenient access to Columbia Falls unlike most other options on the Flathead as you continue going north. The hosts graciously accommodated some last minute special requests that they could have justifiably charged us for but elected not to.

What a dream!

We arrived and everything was perfect. The view is spectacular and we spent a lot of time at the end of the day on the rocking benches at the property edge. Perfect home base for Glacier National Park. Carol and Tom were so responsive and attention to every detail was already taken care of! Updated everything- high quality kitchen utensils and pots and pans, washer dryer. And, importantly, the King bed is very comfortable.

Perfect Serenity!

Everything about this cabin & stay was absolute perfection. The location, the cabin, the hosts, the view…..I could go on & on! The cabin was one of the most well stocked homes I’ve stayed in. I’ve been renting VRBO homes for approx. 12 years now and I’m not sure I’ve ever stayed in one so well stocked with everything you possibly need; from cooking essentials, spices, binoculars, lotion, shampoo, grocery staples, you name it-seemed it was all there. The hosts are easy, friendly, & attentive. The cabin was clean & so peaceful & relaxing. And the view….nothing short of amazing. Close to everything you need. It was nothing short of perfect!!

Cabin on the River

We just returned from a wonderful week long vacation at this private riverside cabin surrounded by trees. The owners were most accommodating and helpful. The cabin has all the modern amenities and was spotless. We loved the huge picture windows that make one feel like they are outside. The large deck is perfect for looking at the Flathead River and seeing deer, bear, Golden Eagles, Bald Eagles and many other water fowl. We were lucky enough to see all of these in the week we were there, while sitting on the deck with our German Shepherd. We look forward to be able to return again to this relaxing place.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Carol Ladenburg

Host profile image
Our names are Tom and Carol Ladenburg. We are both native to the Flathead Valley, raised in Columbia Falls. We have four children and four grandchildren.

Why they chose this property

To us, this is a very special place. We've spent many days either fishing, swimming or floating the river. Many family gatherings have taken place here, sitting out on the deck enjoying the views, waving to passing floaters and fishermen, and seeing wildlife.

What makes this property unique

You never know what wildlife you may see. Mornings and evenings are best. We've watched wolves chase elk into the river on more than one occasion. It is a peaceful and serene place.
