Derek is a great host! Clear communication the entire time. Derek went above & beyond to bring over a wood crib from another rental to our rental. Game changer for our family of 12! Plenty of room for our large group. We also appreciated that Derek provided a lot of great suggestions for activities and hikes in the area. Great home! Great host!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review — and what a joy it was having your family of 12 here in Whitefish! Honestly, when you mentioned needing a crib, there was no question — we just made it happen. That's exactly the kind of thing we love to do for our guests. Every family is different, every trip is unique, and the little details like that can make all the difference between a good stay and a truly seamless one. Knowing that crib was a game changer for your crew genuinely makes our day! One of our absolute favorite parts of hosting is the time before your arrival — helping families and groups plan and prepare so that from the moment you get here, you can just relax and enjoy. Whether it's recommending the best hikes for different skill levels, hidden gems around the valley, or helping map out a full itinerary for your time in Montana, we love being a resource for our guests. Montana has so much to offer and we want every guest to experience as much of its magic as possible during their stay. Thank you for trusting us with your family's vacation. It means the world to us that you felt cared for every step of the way — from the first message to the last day. We hope to welcome your whole crew back again soon! Warmly, Derek Stay In Whitefish 🏔️

Great time staying on the mountain with the family. Ski access and all the bedrooms on different levels made it perfect for multiple families with small children. Everyone had their own areas to retire to in the evening if they wanted. Would highly recommend!

Very Cozy Stay

My family enjoyed our stay here during the week of Christmas. The home was very clean and comfortable. There are four floors so plenty of room. We loved the movie room, the fireplaces, the Christmas tree downstairs and big windows with views of the mountains. The ski-in, ski-out access was easy--you just walk across the street and then drop into Home Again. Communication was super great and helpful. We'd definitely stay here again!

Excellent Family Home

This property was perfect for a family vacation with 8 children and 6 adults. Close to Glacier NP for day trips. The City Beach is very close. Whitefish Ski Lodge is right down the hill. Hiking great direct from the house. So much to do for the family. The house exceeded our expectation. Dereck was a great host.

Less than 5 min and you're on the slopes. The views from the balcony and the master bedroom are unreal. We had clear view of Glacier! Killer spring boarding. For a house this big it would be nice to have an extra refrigerator as we have been accustomed to. Derek was an awesome host.

Great for families!

We stayed for a week with our family of 14 which included 7 adults and 7 kids. The house gives everyone privacy with 5 bedrooms. The master bedroom upstairs was spectacular with separate tub, a shower with dual shower heads, and a washer/dryer conveniently located in the walk in closet, plus gorgeous views of the mountains. The bedding was nice quality and good mattresses. The lowest level was great for the grandkids. They had their own bedroom & bathroom, plus a sitting area with a TV for their gaming devices. The only downfall was it stayed cool since it was the lowest level but there were plenty of extra blankets. Everyone loved the theater room for watching a movie, and a second washer/dryer was located on this level. There were a few board games available also. The kitchen was very well equipped. We appreciated the slow cooker and two coffee pots! There was even a cooler in the garage that came in handy for our day trips to Glacier National Park. It’s a wonderful home, very roomy and comfortable. Great communication with owner/caretaker.

It’s been a while due to COViD that we have driven down from Canada to explore the beautiful Whitfish Montana. Great walks/hiking shopping and food. The view from this home was breathtaking!!!! Thankful to have had this great time to bond. The home is payed out so everyone can come together and yet have your own specs if needed. And just a short drive to downtown.
