This cozy cabin offers the best of both worlds - all the conveniences of town just minutes from Glacier National Park. Tucked in the hamlet of East Glacier, this cabin’s within walking distance to art galleries, gift shops, restaurants, trailheads, a ranger station, horseback riding, park tours, the historic Amtrak station, a general store, and a golf course which affords stunning views of Glacier’s peaks.
The cabin’s main floor contains a bright, fully appointed kitchen, a bedroom (one full bed), bathroom, laundry facilities, and a living room complete with a comfortable couch which can sleep one person. The comfy loft overlooks the living area and holds a hand-made log bed (full-size). To accommodate those with allergies, no pets are allowed.
The East Glacier area boasts breathtaking mountain scenery, meadows choked with wildflowers, and an amazing array of wildlife. Lucky visitors can spot grizzly bears, black bears, elk, moose, bald eagles, beaver, lynx, mountain lions, wolverines, fishers, pine martens, mountain goats, big horn sheep, and more.
Area activities and attractions include hiking, fishing, climbing, birding, wildlife viewing, mountain biking, boat rides, the Museum of the Plains Indians, the Blackfeet Heritage Center, North American Indian Days Powwow (second weekend in July), naturalist guided hikes, evening programs in Glacier Park, and Visitor Centers.
Roads from East Glacier travel north along the east front of the Rocky Mountains and lead to St. Mary, Going-to-the-Sun Road, Babb (home of the world’s best steak), Many Glacier, and Waterton Park in Canada. Visitors can also travel south and west over Maria’s Pass to West Glacier and back across Going-to-the-Sun Road.

This was a great place, unfortunantly we didn't make it to the cabin for our time, due to transportation issues, coming from Eastern Missouri a lot can go wrong hauling 2 motorcycles in a trailer. We planned for this vacation at this cabin with Colleen and Mark for a year. They were very helpful and through our change of plans and we are absolutely going to go back to stay with them in the future, in THIS cabin. They were great to us, Great folks. Thanks again.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, age 55+, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you for the kind words! We'd love it if you could stay with us sometime in the future. --Mark and Colleen

Dear Colleen and Mark, Thanks so much for sharing your cabin with us! We had a wonderful time exploring Glacier with this as our home base. In fact, we like this end of the Park best--quieter, less people--great hikes out of Two Medicine. We like the Many Glacier area also. Serrano's Mexican Restaurant-awesome-we went twice!! We hike a lot in Rocky Mtn National Park--you have a lot more lakes and rivers--we enjoyed the water. We are off to Banff and Jasper, so thanks again for making the first leg of our journey so comfortable--it was great! Patty and Richard, Denver, CODid you find this review helpful?

Dear Mark and Colleen, Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. This house was exactly what we wanted. We hiked all day then came back to change & eat dinner. Then it was back here to plan the next days hike and to sleep--something like 10 hours! It was fantastic. We've had a wonderful vacation so far thanks to you! If any of your renters inquire, they can find memory cards for digital cameras at the Glacier Park Tradind Co. just a few blocks away. Also, the Whistlestop Restaurant had great buffalo burgers. We would skip eating at the Lodge next visit, but it worth a look to see the view and learn its history. Also, the Village Restaurant has homemade sourdough which is to die for! P.S. I watered your flowers!! Thanks, Amy and Charlie, Richmond, VADid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

Mark & Colleen, Thanks so much for allowing us to use your cozy cabin on our trip to East Glacier. We were booked at the Glacier Park Lodge but our daugher who drove in from Corvallis talked us into changing our reservations and we have enjoyed our stay. The weather was perfect, the scenery stunning, and the cabin was an ideal location to spend the nights. Hikes we recommend include one up to Grinnell Glacier, Two Medicine Lake-- including a visit to Twin Falls, the Highline Trail, and a hike to Hidden Lake from the Logan Pass visitor center. For food, the Whistle Stop can't be beat. Try the Cattle Baron Steak House in Babb for outstanding steak. For a relaxing time, go over to the Glacier Park Lodge and sit out in the rocking chairs on the from porch sipping your favorite drink. This inside of the Lodge has to be seen to believed. Thanks for making this a special trip. We will be back!! Marylin, Nick, Erika and JohnDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

We were impressed with the cabin. It was clean and comfortable with good restaurants near by. The cheesecake at Two Medicine Grill is very good! We had a wonderful time and look forward to returning to East Glacier. Everyone was so friendly. Mark was so helpful with our reservations, all of our questions, and the car rental. We would recommend his services to anyone. Thank you from your friends in Minnesota.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, tourists without a car, age 55+, girls getaway.

Wonderful place to stay. Mark does a great job of helping you to feel at home and the place is quiet and yet right where you want to be (only a few minutes from the park entrance). Used the kitchen and grill every day and saved a fortune. Used Mark's store to purchase a good chunk of what we didn't already have (it's only 1/2 mile to his general store). The kids loved staying in the loft and the onsite laundry really helps out, too.... Will stay here again someday.Owner response: Thanks for the kind words!! Hope to see you again! Mark, Colleen & Dalton

Why the Owner Chose East Glacier Park:
Colleen purchased the cabin when she moved to East Glacier after landing a job teaching English at Blackfeet Community College. It was a dream come true. Ever since a vacation to Glacier in 1989, Colleen had been trying to get to live near the park. Another dream came true when she met Mark at East Glacier's Fireman's Ball--the fundraiser for the volunteer fire department. The dream continues...now with two kids and more fun than any person could hope for.
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin:
The cabin is ideally located in town but within a block's walk of the stunning view afforded by froggy flats. It's close to ammenities as well as hiking, climbing and fishing.
