quiet beautiful location

A very comfortable home which has a "babbling brook" water feature in the backyard that adds spa-like atmosphere. Minutes from Wayfarers State Park at Flathead Lake and activities in Big Fork. The mountain forest neighborhood is quiet and feels secluded. Very much look forward to the next stay; it's a place where you can just hang and relax.

Perfect location

Our family of four enjoyed our stay here. Home is located in a great secluded area, but is also perfect for your every day adventures to Glacier, Flathead Lake and the surrounding areas. We saw deer and turkeys daily and even saw a red fox early one morning. The cabin is well stocked and very clean! We did not require any additional amenities to make our stay perfect.

Comfortable and Quiet Montana Retreat

My husband and I were celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary with family, and we chose the Montana Escape vacation home as our base to explore Glacier National Park and other nearby activities. The location is wonderful and the house provided the relaxing and rustic cabin experience we were looking for. The only things we found that could have made our experience better is the master bedroom closet was locked so we couldn’t hang our clothes up for our 4 night stay, and the barbecue grill was not clean, so we decided not to grill the steaks that we brought. The property managers were very responsive to a need to change a light in one of the bedrooms that went out during our stay. They were there the same day, which was truly appreciated. We saw lots of wildlife in the area, which was awesome, and we would definitely consider staying here again if we return to the area.

House was just as pictured in the listing. I had a glitch with completing check-in, not sure if it was on my end or theirs, but the host helped me out and gave me necessary information. Some issues with water, but everything was resolved quickly. Hot tub gave US problems, but called the host and he was able to help us out over the phone!! Overall, the place was nice and the location was ideal for our fishing trip. Would recommend!

Beautiful house in the woods

This was the perfect property for a snowy family Christmas in the woods. The neighborhood is beautiful but still only a couple of minutes' drive from Bigfork, which was wonderfully decked out for Christmas in the downtown area. The house itself was well-stocked, cozy and warm with everything we needed for cooking and celebrating together. There are comfy chairs & a great sofa (with lots of blankets and cushions) for relaxing by the fire & watching movies together. We also really appreciated that the driveway was cleared for us on arrival even though quite a bit of snow had fallen that day. Highly recommended,

Cabin in the woods

The house was very comfortable for three of us and it is in a great location. We walked the neighborhood every morning and enjoyed both the front porch and the patio in back, especially the water feature. It was a little disappointing that the fireplace didn't work the last two days but we all agreed that we would love to come back next fall. The colors were fabulous, thanks for arranging that!

Birthday trip to Glacier!

Was my husband’s birthday and he chose Montana. This cabin was perfect; in the middle of nowhere, without being in the middle of nowhere! Another couple couldn’t make the trip but, we kept the reservation anyway! Glad we did! If y’all have kids, there’s plenty for them to do too! Highly recommended for all ages!!

Lovely Getaway Cabin - Great Location Tucked Away But Close to Everything

This cabin was the perfect getaway for three couples. There were three individual, nice bedrooms that made it easy and comfortable for three couples to stay. The shared spaces - kitchen/dining and big living room were great for gathering and games in the evening and cooking meals. We also made use of the BBQ and outdoor seating area! Location is wonderful - tucked away yet still only a short drive to Bigfork, Polson, and Glacier National Park. We spent the first day boating on the lake and going to Wildhorse island and the second day at Glacier. Check in was easy and property manager was very responsive. Highly recommend this well-decorated cozy getaway!

Nice place a few easy fixes needed

We really liked this house. My family of 6 stayed here comfortably. But when we brought our groceries for the week there was absolutely no cupboard space to put them in! There are two full top to bottom cupboards full of random coffee mugs and so much extra stuff. Half the dishware should be put in a storage closet or pantry. We piled all our food and supplies on the counter tops. There were only 3 dishwasher tablets in a jar for the week. There were no garbage bags (except for the one in the can) I got some. And some of the towels had holes in them. At home yes, I would put them in the kid bathroom but for my guests?? Nope! Cleaning up the clutter would make this an even better place.

What a delight!

What a wonderful place to escape to! Unlike other VRBO's, this cabin has so many thoughtful, homey touches that encouraged us to kick back, relax, and enjoy our time in Bigfork. The house is very comfortable for the six of us and we were glad there were ceiling fans in the loft and main room. The bathrooms, laundry, dishwasher, and grill were all top-notch. The toys and kids books were a godsend for our kids while we were cooking dinner or getting ready to head out on the boat. We only have one suggestion: replace the kitchen pans and knives! For such a great kitchen, the knives were dangerously dull and the non-stick pans were so scraped up that we didn't feel comfortable cooking in them. This is an easy fix on Amazon or at Costco and it would improve the cooking experience significantly! Finally, I can't speak highly enough of the team at Enjoy Montana. The street was being re-sealed while we were on property, meaning that our boat trailer wouldn't be able to pass on the single lanes. Abby found us a spot to store the boat overnight quickly and without issue. And when we couldn't find a DVD player on site, Brian brought and installed one for us while we were out on the lake. This is a great house in a great spot managed by a great team. We can't wait to come back!

Great property. Nice quiet location. I gave it 4 stars overall because the Check-in/Check-out times (4PM/10AM) are not convenient and made us feel rushed. The fees are much higher than what we have paid for other VRBO's which nearly doubled the price of our stay.

A really nice cozy quiet retreat!

We had a great week here while we attended the Dragonboat Festival in Lakeside. This property is at the end of the road, yet a short drive to the town of Bigfork. The home was clean and well stocked with towels and linens. The gas fireplace warmed up the place on chilly nights in September! Plenty of space for 4 adults. Very good communication with the property management and emails clearly stated directions and check in. We can't wait to return to Montana!

6/10 Okay

The home and setting are beautiful. I think an honest assessment would make it a spectacular home

The home is absolutely wonderful. Very charming and easy to get comfortable in. I don't want to appear to be overly critical but there were some major issues that are minor costs that really would have improved our thoughts on the home. The Denver Bronco's sheets in the loft bedroom were sweat-stained and just old. My daughter slept on top of the sheets. Look at the pillow case. Sweat stained. Awful. The mattress in the master bedroom should be replaced. Extremely uncomfortable. You can feel the springs. I slept on the couch every night. Sleeping well (or not sleeping well) can really make a (or break ) a vacation. The sheets should be changed there as well. The dining room table is just awful to look at. It completely takes away from this beautiful and otherwise decorated nicely home. I would replace it. Finally, the home was a little dirty. The first floor bathroom had a pair of childrens underwear behind the toilet. Just should make sure the home is truly clean. People can deal with other things but clean is important. If those things were changed, I would have given the home 5 stars. Regardless, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it assuming those small things were changed. I hope this is helpful. I didn't want to be critical but I would hope being honest would be helpful. Thanks!
