About this property

GLACIER PARK AND SF FLATHEAD RIVER NEARBY!! W GLACIER 12 MILES, RIVER 200 YARDS

A 15 minute/mile drive on a mostly four lane highway and you are at the West Entrance to Glacier National Park to enjoy your adventure in paradise. Get a good night’s rest in your large bedroom with a king size bed on a Montana made log frame. The home is located on the edge of town across the road from a wooded area and down the hill is the South Fork of the Flathead River that flows from the great Rocky Mountains out to the Pacific Ocean.
Enjoy 1000 square feet of living area in your new home, Burnt Stump Lodge, located in Hungry Horse, a small town of about 900 people that was created when Hungry Horse Dam was built in 1949. The neighborhood the home is in, is one of the first areas developed during dam construction when the town formed and is still inhabited by working class folks, SOME THAT DO LIVE IN OLDER SHABBY TRAILERS, IF THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR YOU, PLEASE LOOK ELSEWHERE. (I suggest to do your Google Street View).
The neighborhood is friendly and quiet. Drink your morning coffee on your balcony and breathe in the ionized air from the river below. Your view is of beautiful Columbia Mountain, the forest, and just a 2-minute walk away is the river where you can throw in a fishing line and catch some dinner! If you choose you can drive to the river access, too.
There is great cell service and internet. I also have a printer/fax/scanner that can be made available, as well as a portable Air Conditioner (house is very well insulated and with all the ceiling fans as well as a box fan. keeping cool has never been an issue in the past) A washer and dryer are provided. In the evenings, kick back and watch a movie on a huge 80-inch flat screen TV, with HBO, Netflix. Hulu. Disney, also several movies in the archive on Prime, so plenty of options.

Glacier International Airport (FCA) is only 12 miles from the home. There is a grocery store in Hungry Horse where you can buy your groceries; larger stores 7 miles away in Columbia Falls; Costco and Wall Mart are 20 miles away in Kalispell. There are many restaurants in town and on the way to the park or prepare your own delicious meals at your peaceful retreat in your kitchen with all new appliances.

HOUSEKEEPING
When you arrive, the home will be clean and set up with bed linens and bath towels. Garbage bags, coffee filters, bacterial hand soap, dish/dishwasher are provided. Guests are to provide personal care items such as body soap, shampoo, lotions, etc. Kitchen is fully equipped with dishes, pans, utensils, salt and pepper. Bring your favorite spices.

Terrible

The house was in a run down sketchy trailer park with junk ,abandon cars ,mattresses and junk strewn all around the area and up against the property . It felt very unsafe and was misrepresented by the host. Cannot comment on inside as we never got out of the car. We went back into the trailer park and took pictures to send to VRBO. Worst location, condition and environment I’ve seen for a Rental unit. Host cursed and threatened when I told him we would not be staying there.

Very close to GNP entrance

After staying busy every day this was the perfect place to relax in the evening. The rental was well stocked with all we needed. Dee was available if needed but provided us our privacy. So much to do and see in the area that is filled with nature. If you enjoy restaurants and shops check out Whitefish, a very beautiful city with a lot to offer. My favorite sandwich maybe ever was just down the street at The Great Bear Cafe. A Huckleberry chicken sandwich was outstanding and highly recommended. A vacation to treasure and remember!

Spacious and had everything we needed

We spent three days in the area and hiked a lot. This house is so close to the West Entrance. Things we really appreciated: the comfy king-sized bed, the massage chair!, the spacious shower, the laundry, the kitchen with every tool imaginable, the ice chest, all the necessities (from towels, to laundry soap, to ziploc baggies.) The drive into the neighborhood is deceiving. This is a really nice house!

Smooth From Start to Finish

The location outside of the West Entrance of GNP was the main appeal for my partner and I. 10ish mins was really nice. The house itself was clean and cozy and had everything as expected. The host(s) were quick and responsive to all inquiries. Don't let some of the neighbor's properties fool you, this home was well taken care of with all the basic amenities needed. It was pretty cool being right by the dam fed river too! Would definitely stay again.

Great basecamp for our Glacier Adventure

Like the description says, the neighborhood, a working-class residential side road in Hungry Horse, isn't a resort, but we never felt unsafe or unwelcome. There's a little trail to the creek if you want to do something near the house. But I'm guessing, like us, not too many are going to hang out near the house when the best national park in the country in 15min away! Inside, the place exceeded our expectations - a large comfortable bed, comfortable sofas, large, clean living space, and kitchen. Comfort was a huge need after our all-day adventures in the park - and we looked forward to getting back each evening to rest in luxury. We especially appreciated our host checking on us when we spent the night out in Many Glacier and the provided bear spray and sunscreen along with plenty of helpful maps and local restaurant suggestions. Considering how much other places wanted for early August in the area, we felt like we got a great bargain. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it!

Lovely home close to Glacier National Park

Very comfortable home with every amenity you could need. Very clean and decorated very nicely . Comfortable bed and furnishings. Spacious for my husband and I. A short ride west Glacier Park. Very quiet home at the end of the street. . Although the other homes in the neighborhood were A little run down t that was not a problem for us. It was quiet and very nice. The newer homes are being built and will improve the area. We would definitely stay there again.

Nice accommodations with great location!

We were in Hungry Horse for a family vacation. My wife and I stayed at this property, separate from the rest of the group. The outside is not much to look at but the inside is very nice, with a good-size bedroom and bath and a large (about 20 feet x 32 feet by my estimate) combination living room, dining room and kitchen. The location is superb -- just 10-15 minutes drive from the Apgar entrance to Glacier National Park and the west terminus of Going to the Sun Road. The neighborhood, which has been the subject of criticism in some other reviews, is fine. It's not the Ritz but this is a small rural town in Montana and the Ritz is nowhere to be found. The host was responsive to our communications and there were no issues in that regard. Overall we were quite satisfied and I have no hesitation in recommending this property to any individual, couple, or small family staying in the Hungry Horse area.

Wonderful Owners and loved the Property

Dee and Jaz were wonderful owners of the property. Loved talking to them. The house inside was perfect. Large 85-inch TV, well equipped Kitchen and Dining Area and plenty of room to entertain. Even had a massage chair which I must say I used a few times! I would definitely stay there again. We were on the go a lot so did not get to enjoy the property as much but that's what vacation rentals are for.

Wonderful Stay

We stayed for a week in this beautiful place and had a great time. The accommodations are excellent and we would stay again if possible. We conversed with neighbors who were nothing but kind and although some of the neighborhood appeared to need a cleanup we weren’t bothered by it at all. The mountain view off the balcony was fantastic! We enjoyed this property immensely.

Very comfortable "home base" for Glacier National Park

This was a wonderful "home base" for our trip to Glacier NP. It is about 15 minutes to the west entrance. We enjoy staying out of the very touristy "villages" at the parks. The host is very honest about the area, so if that is a problem for you, perhaps this very comfortable place isn't for you. We found it to be very quiet and when you enjoy the tree view from the deck, the "trailer park" is not visible. The house had everything we needed and some wonderful extras like a grill and massage chair (most enjoyable after long days on the trail and in the car). The bed was very comfortable and I loved the pillows so much I noted the brand and style. The host was very helpful including emailing us to inform us about the park timed reservation passes, providing bear spray (almost had to use it!) and offering to start his generator so we could make coffee when there was an unplanned local power outage (very short). If you plan to do much on the east side, be aware that it is 1.5 - 2.5 hours to drive there depending on which area you are headed. The park is HUGE and with construction on Going To the Sun Road the long drives are inevitable. Thanks, Dee!

About the host

Hosted by Deelynn Olson

Host profile image
I am a Hungry Horse, Montana native. My family owned and operated the Hungry Horse Motel for 25 years so I had tourism hospitality in my blood at birth!

Why they chose this property

I owned this property for 20 years and want to share the great proximity to Glacier National Park and the great river waters that come from our wilderness streams to just minutes away from your front door.

What makes this property unique

Save loads of money, due to location ,this property rents for the same amount or less as some that are half its size and far less luxuriously furnished.
the river can not be seen from inside the property, but is easily accessed by walking 200 yards south across a public park.
the house itself is 250 square feet larger than a nearby TWO bedroom unit, and as far as aesthetics, not even in the same class.
