Accommodations:  Cabin, 3 Bedrooms + No additional sleeping rooms avail, 2 Baths (Sleeps 6)

Keywords:  Cabin

This 1700-square-foot, custom-crafted cabin was completed in January of 2002. Outfitted with many hand-peeled log accents and rustic iron work, this upscale cabin evokes the feeling of the great camps of decades gone by.

Located in a meadow of wildflowers, Lupine Meadow Lodge has unsurpassed views of the peaks of Glacier National Park. With many windows and three decks, you will have ample opportunity to relax and appreciate the beauty.

The cabin is surrounded on three sides by National Forest and no other structures or roads are in sight. As the North Fork is so remote and pristine, this high-tech cabin provides its own electricity and power.

Lupine Meadow Lodge is located in the North Fork Valley of the Flathead River in Northwest Montana. The North Fork is designated a "Wild and Scenic River" and its beauty is startling.

The cabin is located on the western border of Glacier National Park and is six and one-half miles north of the small outpost town of Polebridge. This picturesque town is comprised of a Mercantile which has basic provisions and a renowned bakery, a restaurant and pub, a couple of hostels for lodging, and approximately 40 residents. The Northwest entrance to Glacier National Park is accessed through Polebridge.

The North Fork is a special place and a true backcountry enthusiast's paradise. Known as America's last true wildlands, the North Fork is home to abundant wildlife including Grizzlies, gray wolves, moose, elk, deer, mountain lions, snowshoe rabbits, bald eagles, hawks, and cougars.

There are many outdoor activities including excellent fishing on the North Fork River or the nearby mountain lakes and streams, hundreds of miles of trails, and old logging roads on which to hike and mountain bike. Lupine Meadow Lodge also provides excellent access to Glacier National Park.

Whether your desire is to get away and relax, or to make the most of the backcountry, Lupine Meadow Lodge will be sure to make your vacation remarkable. The lodge has a bedroom dowstairs with a queen bed and a bath with a shower. There are two bedrooms upstairs with a queen bed in one and two twin beds in the other. The bath upstairs has a tub/shower combination. Contact owners for many additional photos of the beautifully decorated interior and of the spectacular views from the cabin of Glacier National Park.

Remote Luxury

Dear friends traveled from the East to celebrate a special birthday. We thoroughly enjoyed the lodge and found it to have every convenience possible. We wanted to enjoy the less popular part of Glacier and all the comforts of home. We were all delighted with the many amenities, wonderful views, and excellent condition of the lodge. We highly recommend this for your stay in and around the Polebridge area. And Sue and Greg are helpful hosts who have forgotten nothing we missed.

Montana slice of Heaven

Guest: Kim (Salt Lake City, Utah)
Date of Stay: 07/09/10 Review Submitted: 07/21/10

I took a niece and nephew to this location, as they wanted a "secluded house in the mountains with no neighbors and with wildlife". This was a homerun. The house was perfectly decorated and equipped and very clean. It had more than you could want. We had a great time just hanging out, as well as touring the park and Whitefish mountain. The best for us was having two bears show up on the property. It was facinating watching them from the comfort of the house! To Sue and Greg, thank you so much for making your "slice of heaven" available for some of the rest of us to enjoy. God bless. Kim

Pure Relaxation & Adventure!

Guest: Rue (Portland, OR)
Date of Stay: 05/22/10 Review Submitted: 07/13/10

I finally found a vacation hideaway where my husband cannot be interrupted by work business on his cell phone, or through email. It was wonderful! We recently spent 5 nights in the cabin and had a wonderful time experiencing all that the Glacier area has to offer. We enjoyed hiking at nearby Bowman Lake in the park and around the cabin, and took a couple fishing and picnicking trips down in the meadow (a short 10 minute drive from the cabin). Our family enjoyed kayaking on Bowman as we hiked around the side. The cabin is only about 7 miles from the Polebridge entrance to Glacier so we could pop in for the day, but have a comfortable, private place to come home to at night. Dinnertime was always highlighted by who could spot the most deer and ground squirrels scurrying across the back meadow! No bears ever made an appearance, but that gives us something to come back for in the future! We also enjoyed the many baked goods that the Polebridge Mercantile had to offer, but definitely should have done more hikes to compensate for all the cookies and bear claws we ate! There was also wireless internet available for a quick check on what the rest of the world was up to. We both enjoyed having such a warm and "homey" place to stay that just invited you to snuggle up in front of a warm fire to read, or curl up in front of one of the windows to spot the various wildlife. It was a much needed "escape from reality" vacation, with all the comforts of home!

Despite the cool wet weather during our stay at Lupine Meadows, we still greatly enjoyed our first week: cooking good meals,enjoying the fireplace, being cozy on the couch and chairs reading+/or listening to music. It's a wonderful, well appointed comfortable place, as nice as any Northern MN or Lake Superior vacation home I've seen! If Time and Life allows, we'll be happy to come back.

We had a great stay at your house. What a great place and really well decorated. We always rent houses when we travel and and try to treat the house like it was ours, especially a great house like yours.

We spent our evenings in front of the fireplace playing cribbage and gin. What a beautiful cabin! Leave the bathroom window open at night and you may hear the wolves.

The peace and solitude of Lupine Meadow Lodge is balm to the soul and senses. We spotted a black wolf one evening coming across the meadow toward us. It was a magnificent black with silver underneath. A little while later a second wolf a light buff color came into view.

A great spot for unwinding, relaxing and loafing...some days it's hard to go climb mountains when the veiw is so pretty from the porch.

As a former B & B inkeeper I can appreciate everything you've done to make Lupine Meadow Lodge a lovely home away from home "mountain top experience." The decor, amenities, hiking, dining and views were all a real treat.
