It was a wonderful stay overall! The property was gorgeous and the interior was well put together. I especially appreciated the availability of the fire pit and outdoor area. The only problem I had was that some of the lighting was confusing and some bulbs seemed burnt out. Phenomenal place and I would love to stay here again!

Glacier Experience

We enjoyed all of the amenities that were provided to us during our stay. The home was very comfortable and we enjoyed the outdoor fire pit as well. It was a convenient place for a lot of the things we were doing during our stay.

Quick Stay Headed to Glacier

This is a great place to stay for a large group. We were there for less than 24 hours as we flew into Kalispell to begin our time in Glacier National Park. We wanted a place close to the West entrance, and this was perfect. The bedrooms are great, the outdoor area is cute and you are close to restaurants and other amenities.

Yes this house had everything we needed and more - extremely comfortable beds, all the spices we needed, clean towels, excellent laundry facilities. But what puts this place above others is the home's owner, Jen - her communication and support are second to none!

Great location.

Location was awesome. The house could definitely use some tlc. Was hotter than expected. They did have fans which were very dirty. Needs some items replaced. Beds were very comfortable.
