We had a wonderful time in Whitefish. The house we rented was very nice and comfortable. The location of the house was very convenient for us as we snowboarded at the Whitefish Ski resort almost everyday and the house was only a few minutes away from the resort. We saw wild turkeys, elks, dear, etc. around the house, which was also nice and interesting.

Amazing Property

This was our second time staying here. We loved every minute. The house was immaculate and well stocked. We were disappointed that the master bathroom had been remodeled (we loved the old one!) but the hot tub was a wonderful addition. We enjoyed cooking in the well stocked kitchen and grilling out. We would highly recommend this property!

Great Montana Respite

The property was perfect for our family - two couples and a single adult. It is in Whitefish (just outside of the main city center portion of the town), and is exactly as represented on the listing. When coming to Whitefish, I would choose this place over and over again! (Of the three places we stayed during our Montana/Wyoming adventure, this was by far our favorite).

Great summer stay

We enjoyed our summer stay here. It has a good location close to town and Whitefish mountain. We also did not mind the drive to Glacier Mountain Park. Hot tub and fire pit area were nice and spacious and we used several times. We liked to watch the animals (deer and wild turkey) in the woods every morning and evening. Downstairs bathroom should be renovated to have a walk in shower and get rid of the tub. It's small and hard to get into. Need to add more deck furniture we liked sitting outside on deck but not enough room for 6.

Family Ski Trip

Long weekend getaway for a family ski trip. The house is in a perfect location between the ski hill and town! The house was clean and had lots of space for the four of us. We were having some issues getting the hot tub to heat up and addressed it with the management company and they worked quickly to get a tech out to look at it. Definitely need 4-wheel drive to get in & out of driveway during winter months. Would definitely stay here again!
