  We spent a week here in August. A fantastic spot for groups with various ages. Kids had great outside space for games and a calm lake to swim in, adults had a beautiful view, campfire stories and lots of fishing. We brought up a canoe, raft and rented paddle boards in Whitefish. Lots of lazy days enjoying quality time with our families. Also worth noting, my father has multiple sclerosis and doesn't get around well. The house worked well for him, as there is a bedroom on the same floor as main living area, with a walk in shower. And he could ride his scooter all the way down to the fire pit. A great location for day trips into Glaicer and Whitefish. We've rented houses all over NW Montana for the past six years, and this was our best spot yet! The only downside, my boys experienced Barney DVDs for the first time and are now Barney fans.

  We had a family reunion this summer at Spoon lake camp and really enjoyed ourselves. The lake is quiet and motor free, there are plenty of small fish for the kids to catch right off the dock, the swimming is perfect and the loons a treat in the wee hours. Overall the accommodations were just fine. Nothing fancy but just right for families with children. The home is well stocked especially in the area of the kitchen and games and movies, as well as towels and household items. The house was very clean and new. The location good for activities in West Glacier area but a real drive if you are heading to East Glacier areas. The owners could not have been more helpful. A few things could have been better: 1) The path down to the lake badly needs stairs especially for older folks as it is steep. 2) The mattresses in the bunk house had plastic covers over them, understandable for young kids but not the greatest for adults. 3) Making it clear on VRBO that that there are not separate cabins but ONE detached cabin or bunkhouse that contains multiple individual rooms so that folks don't think these are individual cabins. I would love to go back someday! Made for a great vacation!

  Owner response: Dear David Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review to help other travelers. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay. Thanks for taking such good care of our place. Your sister mentioned to me that she loved picking and eating wild huckleberries on our property with her nieces. I am so sorry you got a mattress without a mattress pad in Wolf Cabin. We put hypoallergenic covers on all the mattresses with mattress pads on top of the cover. That bed in Wolf Cabin was an oversight and we do apologize. I also added a photo of the four cabins with private baths so guests can see what they look like from the outside. We do hope you come back as we feel like we know you since we met your sister Susan and she lives here in Bozeman.

  An incredible place - both inside and out! We had a fantastic time, appreciated the lovely house and cabins, the lake with swimming dock and the location - so close to Glacier and surrounding towns. We would recommend the Spoon Lake camp to anyone!

  Several good trips into the Park for picnics and sightseeing. Went to Polbridge and enjoyed great baked goods at the mercantile and a great Elk burger at the Northern Lights Saloon. Time spent at the Cabin with our family was highlighted-be many games spent with grandchildren....Sooo many games!!! Spent hours reading on the porch and at the fire pit chairs. 2 or 3 nights of camp fires were wonderful! Many hours spent with the family at the dock, both the 2 1/2 and 5 year old jumping into the lake. Overall a great grandparent experience!! Tom and Mary PS The resident Loons are great. We never tired of their many different voices as explained to us in the booklet "Loons-Diving Birds of the North" Also enjoyed a hike from the cabin to the other lake below Spoon Lake.

  Our family loved the Spoon Lake Camp. Truly a magical place! Our children enjoyed swimming, roasting marshmallows, and playing with all the wonderful toys. They especially loved the dinos. The books and games were throughly enjoyed as well. Our dog Salsa fetched a stick from the lake close to 100 times. We admired the loon family at the lake as well as the mama duck with her 7 youngsters. We watched nuthatches play outside the kitchen window and saw a marmot and several mountain goats on our hike to Hidden Lake Overlook at Glacier. What a beautiful Hike!! The weather was gorgeous and many trips to glacier were made. Thank you for the lovely place to spend a vacation.

  To the sweet Moog family Thank you for sharing your home with our family. What a perfect place for us to gather and enjoy all the aspects of family gathering together. The days were sunny, warm and happy for all the activities we ended up being enrolled in. A memorable trip and perhaps the last where Dad is able to branch this far to join us in his favorite place on earth-Montana! So love what you have today. We certainly do. Thanks Again!

  After 2 days in the back country with our 6 children (ages 6-14) The Doss and Schavees' from Minneapolis very much enjoyed Moog Camp. We did a lot of swimming, cooking, resting and enjoying some of Glacier National Park. We went to the Belton Chalet for dinner one night and ate in the rest of the nights. We absolutely loved your property. The lake was wonderful, the location excellent and our accommodations were perfect for our two families. Our children and ourselves will always remember Spoon Lake and the Moog Cabin. We hope to come back soon. Take Care and thank you so much for opening your cabin for us. The Doss' and Schavees' (Buck, Sue, David, Sarah, Christian, Emily,Peter Bobby, Will and Tootie,) Thanks again
