Glacier national Park, July 2025 30th anniversary trip

My wife and I come along with two other couples, stayed in this home on duck lake. What a beautiful location! It was really quiet and peaceful. The location is perfect for trips to many glacier and to the east side of the park. Travis was very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions I had.

Lovely vacation rental

My husband, sister and daughter absolutely loved our 3 night stay at this cabin near Glacier. We hiked all day and returned in the evening to make dinner in a well stocked kitchen with spices, condiments and more. The beds were super comfy and the living area was big with room to stretch and roll out muscles to prep for more hiking.

Great house near Many Glacier entrance to Glacier Park

Relatively new and well maintained house overlooking Duck Lake, a few minutes from the access road leading to the Many Glacier entrance of Glacier Park. Ideal for couples or small families. House is fully equipped with all the comforts of home. We had a wonderful stay.

Great stay

Loved this cabin on Duck lake! Had everything we needed. Grateful they had extra paper products and condiments. Nice place and hosts replied quickly to all questions. Hopefully we’ll be back. It’s a windy area, so pack layers.

Ideal base for our GNP Adventures!

What a wonderful place! My sister and I visited with our dad, and the Red Fox Retreat was perfect for our stay. We loved the convenient access to Glacier National Park, where we went on daily hikes, and enjoyed several visits to Two Sisters Cafe just down the street. We also took a quick day trip to Waterton, which was stunning and unique. Returning to the Red Fox Retreat each night was such a warm and cozy experience. We’ll definitely come back if we’re ever in the area again!

Beautiful house that was great for my family! The house was clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen was well-stocked, living spaces were spacious, and deck was beautiful with nice grill & views. Once we found the house, we were really happy and comfortable there. Host was very responsive, even willing to promptly cancel a night when our trip plans changed and allowed an early check-in. Thank you!Finding the house was the tough part. We were on a long trip to Montana and didn't have the cell service to load all the specific directions. I thought the GPS address and lockbox code would be sufficient to get us there, and then we could connect to the Wifi and load anything else we needed. Future guests, learn from our mistake - the GPS does not take you to the house - it's in fact quite a bit farther down the road through a green gate. We drove back to St Mary to find Wifi, message the host, and load all instructions. Once we had the instructions, we were able to find it without a problem. But unfortunately the extended time searching down the very rough, bumpy road in our small car created a lot of worry and delay. I would recommend making sure all guests know not to follow the GPS and to load/screenshot the specific directions before heading out there.

Pros and Cons

Our family of 5 picked Red Fox Retreat as our east side home base when visiting GNP. Pros: Travis was very friendly and quick to communicate, the property has great views, and the bedrooms are comfy. Cons: It was the least clean property we have stayed at—very dirty grill, fly tape covered in flies, insect and critter traps everywhere (better than critters but still), kitchen utensils broken or melted, half eaten food in the cupboard and fridge, etc. It’s also located on a stretch of very rocky dirt road, so definitely drive with care. Overall, this is a fine spot for easy access to GNP and Waterton, but adjust your expectations accordingly.

Why they chose this property

The area around duck lake is very unique it is quiet and peaceful a great place to unwind after a long day hiking in Glacier park. Sunsets and sunrises are a sight to see also. The sunrising over the lake and the sunsetting behind Chief Mountain from the deck is spectacular.
