Notes
- Jaybird's is one of seven vacation rentals situated in a private setting on Abbott Valley Homestead. This beautiful property is surrounded by the Flathead National Forest and is the last homestead before reaching the Bob Marshall Wilderness area. We have maintained trails on our property and there are a number of trails in the surrounding forest area for those who want to hike, run, bike and/or stroll in the forest. The meadows and surrounding trails provide for extensive cross country skiing and snowshoeing as well. Elk and deer frequent these same meadows year around...close by is a large wetland area that is habitat for many different fur bearing animals and an abundance of bird species. It is a haven for birders and nature photographers. Crystal clear lakes are nearby for swimming. That said, it is still very convenient to the Park , local grocery shopping and all that the Flathead has to offer!

About Doyle Foley
Abbott Valley was gifted to us by our parents about 25 years ago. We grew up here riding horses, fishing and swimming, hiking in the mountains, building forts, and riding tractors and haying and raising cattle. We went away to school, had careers, came back and now our third generation of family is enjoying 'the ranch'. The Foley Family
Doyle Foley purchased this house in 1946
Why Doyle Foley chose Martin City
Abbott Valley is a 270 acre homestead minutes from the West Entrance to Glacier National Park. Nestled near Desert Mountain, and surrounded by Flathead National Forest, this is one of the larger tracts of land, still intact, which was originally homesteaded in 1910 shortly before the establishment of Glacier National Park (1911) and the founding of the National Park Service (1916). Abbott Valley is comprised of meadows, forests, beaver ponds and criss-crossed by two creeks, North and South Abbott. Two of our rentals - Mickey's and Baptiste - are the original homestead cabins dating back 100 years and though they have been remodeled they retain their original authentic log structures. They are a delight to stay in and it is fun to marvel that right here the Indians pitched tee-pees on the property and traded with the early settlers. Abbott Valley is family owned and operated. We live here and are available to answer questions to help make your vacation a memorable experience. We have been welcoming guests for 25 years. Many return year after year, having 'chosen' one cabin or another as theirs, putting their roots down, if only for a week or two, so they can enjoy time with each other in a beautiful, serene setting.
What makes this house unique
Our location is an ideal base for exploring Glacier National Park, the Hungry Horse Reservoir, Whitefish, Kalispell, Bigfork and all that the Flathead has to offer.
