Bright and Charming Gateway to Glacier Apartment!

Summary:

Discover a hidden gem in Columbia Falls, Montana at Glacier Nest. This exceptional property captures the essence of mountain living with its prime location and breathtaking views.

This well-designed residence, cozy apartment, featuring modern amenities and stylish finishes with ample natural light will not disappoint. The perfect spot for enjoying everything in the area!



The Space:

Welcome to Glacier Nest located in Columbia Falls - the gateway to Glacier National Park. Glacier Nest is a short drive east of Whitefish and the airport and 20 minutes from Glacier National Park. Columbia Falls, besides being the gateway to Glacier National Park, has so many things to do (dining, rafting, biking, fishing, hiking, snowmobiling, skiing, wildlife viewing, shopping, etc). From Glacier Nest you're within walking distance to trails, fishing, the river, dining and shopping downtown, breweries and farmers markets.



Glacier Nest is a one-bedroom/one-bathroom apartment that has been completely remodeled and has a comfortable modern feel. The king size bed is brand new (summer 2022). Sit out on the private porch and watch the sunrise or set with your favorite brew or relax inside in the clawfoot bathtub or walk-in shower. There's plenty of room in the kitchen to prepare a meal and a comfy couch and TV to unwind at the end of a long day.



There is space for two vehicles directly below the apartment. Please note: there are stairs to climb since the apartment is built on top of the garage.



Plan your vacation today and enjoy the mountain air and this beautiful land!

Quiet Oasis

We traveled from South Carolina to stay here and it was everything we could have hoped for! It's the perfect place to stay with your spouse. It's very well equipped with pots/pans, etc. Loved that they provided bear spray, bug spray and sunscreen for us and were readily available when we needed to contact them. Would definitely stay here again!

Loved our stay

Our stay here exceeded our expectations. The space itself is really nicely updated and is the perfect size for two people. The hosts provided almost everything you’d need during your stay, including coolers, bear spray, bug spray, and sunscreen. The bed is amazingly comfortable and perfect after a long day of hiking. The location is close to the west entrance of Glacier and Whitefish, and is really close to tons of restaurants and coffee spots. We would definitely stay here again.

Cozy stay near West Glacier

Cozy studio in a good location. The place was clean and had a kitchen with major appliances. Additional amenities such as bear sprays, insulated lunch bags, keurig coffemaker, netflix/ hulu channels and picinc chairs made it a pleasant experience. The bed was super comfy. One negative is the sliding door to the bathroom that is on a septic system. Make sure to keep the bathroom window open to avoid smells. The wifi router also seemed to be disconnected, but the area has good cell phone reception.

Best Little Nest

My husband and I absolutely loved our stay! The kitchen had everything we needed so we didn’t have to purchase extras like aluminum foil, coffee, or salt and pepper. (Just to name a few) Everything was clean and very nice. If I had to choose one minor thing to nit pick, it would be for nicer toilet paper but seriously…it was fine! It is important to prepare for the fact that there is no washer/dryer in the unit so you will need to plan to use the one of the local laundromats or hand wash and hang. Again, not a big deal but be sure you understand that prior to booking. If we are ever back in the area, just the two of us, we would definitely stay here again!!
