Beautiful view, location was so close to the Glacier Park, host was easy to communicate with, as well as the perk of having a travel guide if needed.

Jill was an outstanding guest from start to finish. Communication was clear, polite, and proactive the entire way. Jill treated the home with care and made hosting easy. Their group was considerate and easy. Checkout was smooth, and their messages made it clear the trip went well. We would gladly host Jill again and highly recommend them to other hosts.
The view from the deck was awesome! The house was close to the park and perfect for our family. We had a great trip!

Thanks Jackie — I’m glad the deck view and location made your stay enjoyable. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be happy to welcome you back to our house anytime.
The views were amazing! We had a great family re-union in this wonderful home. It was a perfect place for us to stay to visit Whitefish, do some goat yoga, trail ride with houses and of course, spend time as a family in Glacier. We really enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit after full days of fun and had a few video game tournaments. Highly recommend!

Thanks so much for the thoughtful review, Chip — I’m glad our house helped make those Glacier memories special and that you enjoyed the views and amenities. We appreciate the feedback and will keep working to make every stay even better; you’re welcome back anytime.
The house was beautiful and had all of the amenities needed. Plenty of space for a large group, beautiful views from the back porch, and lots of spaces to keep you occupied and happy. Steve and Doc were great with communication and responsive to questions. We wish the beds were not as hard and that we could access the water below. Other than that....Definitely recommend and hope to return in the future.
