The Creekside tent was cute and cozy! Bathroom facilities were clean and there was consistently hot water. The grounds were nice and we enjoyed using the fire pit! Location in relation to Glacier National Park was fantastic! Would recommend staying here.

This was a really fun glamping experience! The tent was perfectly set up including a coffee pot and water jug system. We absolutely loved sitting watching the deer from our porch. We also greatly appreciated the ample number of fluffy clean towels in the bathroom, and the community board game shelf! The only small downside was the fluctuating water pressure in the showers, but considering it’s a glamping property it was understandable.

John; the main contact person at the property, was terrific; helpful, friendly, accommodating, just a really nice guy. We had one of the tents and although we hadn’t been renting in decades we thought it would be fun AND IT WAS!! And we are no spring chickens! It was comfortable and warm enough even in mid September. The stars were beautiful at night, it was tranquil, and relaxing, the community building was terrific with its laundry facilities and fully stocked kitchen. I mentioned one small concern about the women’s bathroom and John fixed it wonderfully! And the fishingcwas fun too; caught and released a couple beautiful cutthroat trout! Oh ya, Jenna is terrific too! Such a genuinely friendly lady!We’d come again for sure! Highly recommend it!

We were heading to Glacier National Park for a few days and needed a place to rest our heads. We slept in the Creekside Tent, what a unique experience! Really nice, professional and friendly hosts that made it easy for us to love the place. I’ve already recommended this to 2 friend families coming out next week:)

Host was super friendly and we enjoyed our stay in the Creekside. There are 3 platform tents only (feels cozy) and the community center was nearby for potty, kitchen and laundry. I was concerned about being close but there was no bright lights or stinky smells, yay. The tent had a great water contraption device and a coffee maker — so so nice! We wish we had another down day to enjoy it!

I cannot say enough about this adorable place! I never wanted to leave. We stayed in the creekside tent and it was so perfect. My husband and I spent our 10 year anniversary under the Montana stars and it was one of my favorite parts of visiting glacier! The host is super nice & we got to spend some time talking with him by the fire one of the nights. The bed is SO comfy, especially after a long day hiking. It’s also huge which is nice because the other places we stayed had smaller beds and it was nice to sprawl out! Haha. Shower house and bathrooms were always clean and having the option to do laundry is super nice. I never was too cold or hot in the tent, it was just perfect. We got to see deer every morning and there’s a pond to fish or paddleboard, and even a volleyball net. I’m bringing a whole team next time lol :) So sad to leave this awesome place!

Honestly couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. They have everything you need with the most welcoming hosts possible. They just want everyone to stay to have the best time and it’s amazing. 1000/10 would stay here again.

This was the perfect place to stay for our visit to Glacier National Park. Only 25 minutes from the west entrance. The host was incredibly friendly and accommodating. We were welcomed and treated like family. Highly recommend this property for sometime looking for rustic yet comfortable accommodations.

We stayed in the Creekside tent. It felt very private. John was there to greet us as we arrived. It was like seeing an old friend. He is warm and we felt at home immediately. The tent was super comfortable and very clean. The king size bed is a great sleep, very comfortable. There is drinking water and electricity in the tent for charging or whatever. The porch is great for star gazing. The shared bathrooms provided towels and are pretty clean. The shared kitchen could be cleaner but was not a distraction. The kitchen has all the pots and pans and kitchen cooking items you would need. The laundry was a god send and there is no extra charge. No coins needed. The property is stocked with fire wood and two fire pits. Super nice. The fishing pond is sweet with fishing rods provided. There are three deer that roam about the outer fences. It’s located about 20 minutes from the park which was easy for us. The small town is 5 minutes drive and has good restaurants and bakeries. Very nice. We will definitely return and highly recommend the property.

Stayed for two nights and loved it!

We loved our stay at the creekside tent! It felt like we were in the woods at night but still had all the amenities of a hotel. We could hear some coyotes howling the first night which was pretty cool. We also had deer stand next to us at the tent. Definitely would stay again!

Perfect Getaway

My husband and I had an incredible stay here! The setting was perfect, so relaxing and scenic, and the tent very comfortable even during warm weather. Staff was incredibly friendly and the tent was equipped with everything we needed for a perfect glamping weekend: electric outlets, coffee maker, water dispenser, lights, fan, and heater. We also loved the town of Columbia Falls for its proximity to Glacier and local food and drink spots. We would definitely stay here again, and recommend it to anyone looking for a nature getaway.

Amazing little place

My husband and I loved this adorable glamping tent! The view was gorgeous and the king bed was the most comfy bed we’ve ever slept on! The community bathroom and kitchen was close by and very convenient! Columbia falls downtown was a 5-10 minute drive away! And Whitefish was just about 20 minutes away. It was a great place and we will definitely come back !

GNP Home Base

We stayed in the creekside tent at Columbia Mountain Ranch for 3 nights while day hiking at Glacier National Park. The tent was awesome and well set up. Bed was super cozy and with the tend flap open and screening closed at night it was like camping outdoors in comfort. Resort facilities, bathrooms, showers, laundry and kitchen were all great and super clean.
