About this property

Riverfront Home Bordering GLACIER NATIONAL PARK on 9 acres!!

This unique property consists 9 treed acres along the Middle Fork of the Flathead River which borders Glacier National Park. We are located between West Glacier and East Glacier so there is great access to either entrance of Glacier National Park. Relax on the deck and listen to the river, watch the rafters go by or gaze into Glacier National Park during the day and enjoy a firepit in the evening. A trail (many stairs) down the hill takes you to the river where there is a large rock beach area and some fantastic fishing holes.
The amenities of the home consist of a fully equipped kitchen stocked with the basics, fireplace, WIFI (please read below), gas BBQ, firepit (firewood provided) picnic table and lawn chairs. Both bedrooms, loft and one full bath are located on the second floor and there is another full bath on the main floor. You will enjoy your down time with rustic log beds, new Sealy mattresses, leather living room furniture, a large dining area and a kitchen with all the comforts of home. If you're looking for a getaway from the crowds, a convenient place to explore Glacier National Park and a beautiful place to stay, look no further.
We are 24 miles from the West Glacier Park Entrance and 35 miles from the East Glacier Park entrance. Another bonus is that on the other side of our property we look directly into Great Bear Wilderness where there are even more trails to explore!
There is a small one bedroom cabin on the property that may be occupied during your stay. The cabins are not within eyesight of each other so there is ample privacy.
We may have a on site host next year who is very familiar with Glacier Park. This will be decided in the spring of 2025 and they will be located behind the main home which will not interfere with your views/privacy etc.

****Minimum age requirement for guests at this home is 16 years of age. Please contact owner if you have younger children as this home may not be suitable****

******We recently upgraded to Starlink WIFI. While speeds can be incredible it can also slow down during high use times and if multiple people are using the internet so please be aware. All calls are through WIFI calling as there is no cell service in our area so please make sure your phone is set up for WIFI calling prior to arriving!!!***

About the host

Hosted by Sue MacLean

Host profile image
We're from Canada and we bought this property after years of searching for the perfect spot....well, we found it!! We come down to Montana a fair bit but decided to share it with others as we can't be down here on a full time basis.

Why they chose this property

I first discovered this spot as a teenager when my dad used to take me rafting/fishing on the Middle Fork of the Flathead. There is something magical about this place and if you've ever been to this area I'm sure you would agree. We love to hike, fish and raft in the summer and snowshoe in the winter. This is our year round playground!! The mountains, wildlife and endless activities you can do are at your fingertips.

What makes this property unique

Location location location. You'll find very few properties that are on the Middle Fork of the Flathead which borders Glacier National Park. We are 24 miles from the West Glacier Park Entrance and 35 miles from the East Glacier Park entrance. There are also hundreds of thousands of acres of Great Bear Wilderness directly across the highway so you can pick your playground!!
