What a great place for a relaxing vacation. We stayed for the long weekend and this property is exactly as advertised and then some. The cabin was clean and well-maintained and is located on a hobby farm nestled in the hills 5 miles from Whitefish and offers privacy, natural beauty, hiking, farm fresh eggs, and terrific hospitality. Jen and Jerry and Dick and Diane are very kind and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed and answering our questions. We hiked their property as well as local trails, went into to town for dinner or shopping and otherwise relaxed. We highly recommend this property and have already booked our next getaway.

Owner response:Thanks Dan and Diane, We appreciated having you here and we'll look forward to having you back in September! Jen

A Treasure

Snug between pine forest, pastures, and an exquisite small barn, this cabin is clean, comfy, and fun. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen has been thoughtfully equipped, and the gas fireplace toasty. Light floods through the large south windows, and from the second floor we spotted deer at the edge of the trees. We took one of the many nature trails up through the woods to a panoramic lookout -- Big Sky Montana at its most serene. Whitefish has a brewery, community crafts center for all ages, antiques, great thrift shops, and more. Kalispell has modern malls, and a fine, distinctive older section. We had a fascinating tour of the Conrad Mansion National Historic Site. We also enjoyed exploring Talley Lake, Whitefish Lake, and Big Mountain. Glacier, with all its beauty, magnificence and mystery, past and present communities, is an easy drive from here. It's hard to do justice to the hospitality and kindness of our hosts, Jen, Jerry, Dick and Diane. They are thoroughly knowledgable about the area and are ready to help in any way they can. They made our our stay a true joy.

"Mom, I am never leaving here!"

We had the MOST wonderful vacation with you. The cabin had everything we needed, was cozy and comfortable. The animals were friendly and the kids LOVED playing fetch with the dogs, riding the horse, feeding the baby sheep, and collecting eggs from the chickens. We loved the beautiful surroundings and enjoyed peaceful reading on the deck and walks around the property. We loved the proximity to Whitefish and the Farmer's Market, to City Beach and Big Mountain. Also it was a short drive into Glacier National Park. Finally, we felt so welcomed by Dick and Diane and Jen and Jerry! We could not have chosen a better place and better people to spend our 9 days with! Our kids have had the best time playing on and around the property with their new found friends. Thank you again for welcoming us to your home and into you families lives. We truly had a once in a lifetime experience and have already told several family members and friends to plan their next vacation with you. P.S. The kids wanted to wish Libertad a happy birthday yesterday (July 4th). Many thanks once again from your Cabin Friends.

Perfect for Pets and Babies

Our summer visit to the Rockies was greatly enhanced by our stay in Whitefish. We brought our baby who was captivated by the horses, chickens and sheep in the yard. We also brought our dog who loved the space to run around the woods behind the house. We loved being able to have fresh free range eggs in the morning and a relaxing afternoon snooze on the deck in the sunshine. We'll recommend this place to friends.

Mothball central

Guest: Tamiko and Mike (Calgary)

This place stank of mothballs. The owner tried to pretend initially that there was no smell but then came back saying that she'd talked to her parents previously about the smell and they felt no need to do anything. When I said I couldn't stay because of the smell (due to asthma), we still had to forfeit the deposit. We would have gladly stayed if it wasn't for the throat cloying stench that permeated the whole building, and would never had booked to stay if this issue had been posted on the website. Keep this in mind before booking.

Owner response:Unbelievable! This, after cancelling at the last minute two other times with no fee. They had shipped numerous packages to our USA address to avoid paying Canadian duties and were looking for an excuse to grab their boxes and go. We even hand delivered packages to their hotel that continued to arrive after they left. There were mothballs in the closet protecting blankets, but they were removed immediately.

The snow was excellent, our stay was great and we really enjoyed the cabin because of it's home-like yet rustic feel. We look forward to coming back in the future for another successful ski vacation. Thanks!

What a peaceful, wonderful getaway! The hospitality was outstanding, the cabin lacked nothing, and the setting is magnificent! The animals were a real treat [all very friendly!!], and hosts Jen & Jerry, Dick & Diane could not have been more welcoming. Would definitely recommend this location for anyone!!

Idyllic, serene, secluded, spacious, careful and aesthetic attention to detail - this cabin was a God-send for my wife, our teenage daughter and me. This is a family-run property, and each member of the family is gracious, talented, and sensitive to your needs. This is one of the loveliest little farms I've seen. Horses, chickens, sheep and an herbal garden all on a sloping hill on the edge of deep forest. The kitchen is large and fully equipped. This place is a jewel.

The cabin at Round Prairie Farm in Whitefish is tranquil and inviting and the ownership are friendly, accommodating folks ready to help. This property is a close drive to all activities in the Flathead Valley.

We just can not say enough about this place..... Where do I start with this clean and comfortable Whitefish cabin??? Probably the first thing would be there location. This cabin is an easy drivable 5 miles to Whitefish, the best town you will find as a visitor looking for the most of a week in Montana. It is close to Glacier National Park, skiing, and other beautiful drives. The next thing we thought was great about this place was the environment. If you can admire and enjoy friendly farm animals at your back door who have the perfect life you will also like this place. The next thing would be the people who own this hobby farm. They have built a slice of heaven in the woods and are proud of sharing it. They seem to really care about your visit and would go out of there way to make sure you have everything you need for your stay. Thank you so much for a great vacation!
