Owner's Profile
Owner Description
As a native of Montana, I was raised with sweeping prairies and rugged mountains. The Paul Ranch is 160 acres of natural beauty and I can't imagine living anywhere else. I enjoy meeting new people and sharing this peaceful and spectacular setting. Colin and Janice, your hosts, will personalize your stay to make it one to remember. Come stay with us a while...
The Unique Benefits of this House
The unique benefits of the Ranch include the wildlife that inhabit the property, the pair of red tailed hawks that take up residency every year, the awesome mountain vistas, the clean air, the clear night sky, the get-away-from-it-all setting. Hearing the morning and evening sounds from the wetlands conservation area that borders the property will connect you with nature and refresh your spirit.

Enjoyed our stay in 2011. Excellent hosts. Older unit, but very clean. Great views. Suited our needs just fine. Comfortable bed and nice cross breezes were just what we needed after a long day of hiking. Star gazing was awesome.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers.
A great experience and wonderful place to stay!

We stayed here in early August 2011. I have to say that this is one of the most fun places we've stayed and really regretted having to leave. We loved sitting out on the front porch and enjoying the awesome views. This is a great location to just simply unwind or to use as a base for exploring the east side of Glacier as well Waterton Lakes National Park in Canada. Janice and the crew were very friendly and we had a lot of fun getting to know them. The rental was clean and well equipped. We would definitely stay here again and have already recommended it to friends and family.

Paul Ranch was a real 'find'. It's a well-equipped and well-maintained cabin and we loved it. Janice and Colin were great hosts and we couldn't find fault with anything. Cannot recommend Paul Ranch highly enough!

We spent six nights here and really enjoyed it. The home is located in a quiet, peaceful setting with a nice view of the mountains from the front deck. It was clean and well-maintained and stocked with little extras that made cooking (we ate most of our breakfasts and suppers here) so easy. It was roomy for our family of five. Janice & Colin took very good care of us - I really appreciated the daily housekeeping she did - made me feel like I was really on vacation. The added volleyball, tetherball, and horseshoes were fun too. And the beautiful bouquets of wildflowers Janice left us were an extra bonus. I would definitely recommend this home to others. It's a nice distance from so many of the great hikes on the east side of Glacier National Park.
Recommended for:Girls getaway, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, age 55+, sightseeing, families with young children.

Paul Ranch was a great place to stay. It became our home for 3 days while experiencing Glacier National Park and Waterton National Park. We had 2 bedrooms and a nice size living room,large bathroom. There was a washer and dryer which came in handy. There was even detergent for you to use, which was a nice surprise. A well stocked kitchen. They even had spices, herbs and coffee for you. We made our breakfast and dinners here, since the rest of our trip was going to be in hotels. I would definitely recommend a stay at Paul Ranch. i recommend staying in the first bedroom instead of the master because this room has the better view. Its on a ranch and the view is wonderful. The stars at night were amazing. We also got daily visits from a bunny and chipmunk. Truly a great place for a home base to explore this amazing part of Montana.

It was very peaceful. Thank you for the note and the yummy treats. You've done a great job of thinking of the nice little details like the popcorn in the kitchen and prepping the firewood in the fire circle. We enjoyed our time here. Keith and Emily were very helpful and welcoming.
