We chose this property for its convenient access to Glacier National Park. We were extremely happy with the location, and this was the best-equipped VRBO we have ever stayed in! Communication with the host was rapid and easy. If we are ever back in the area, we would certainly stay here.

Fantastic base camp for Glacier

The home was fully stocked and very comfortable, Jessica went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. The home is located close to amenities and Glacier National park which allowed us to get on the road early for long days of adventures. We wish we could have stayed longer and enjoyed the river more than we did!

GNP vacation

Our stay was wonderful and we found Jessica to be a very responsive hostess. The unit was clean and very well appointed down to the bear spray and trekking poles. She has everything you could possibly need. Loved our time in Glacier National Park and if we ever get back this way would stay here again.

Very nice and clean rental. Perfect size for us and liked having the extra 1/2 bath/laundry room. Kitchen had everything we needed to fix some meals in.Jessica provided a lot of extras that you may need or perhaps forgot to bring with you, from soap and shampoo to bear spray and hiking poles.

Perfect for our little family!

This place was great and all we needed for our stay! It is so clean and has so many small details/extra supplies in the bathroom and kitchen for convenience! We loved meeting the family and they just made us feel so welcome and at home. The owner was helpful in giving us ideas for things to do or questions we had about the area. Our kids loved playing with their kids that were so kind to us after a long day in the mountains! Close to the West Entrance of GNP, good food and everything in town as well. Great location for visiting the park and having the convenience of town. Thank you for such a wonderful time! We hope to visit again!

they have everything there! bug repellent, sunscreen, bear spray, cooler box, containers, zip lock bags, walking poles for hiking, and even a shoe dryer! amazing! You might have to ask and make sure the fire pit is good to use. If the ground is too try you might not be able to. Will revisit it in a couple of years!

Wonderful Space

This was a great space to rent! There are two stories (laundry room and partial bathroom downstairs, kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms upstairs). The upstairs is an open-concept with a spacious kitchen. The bedrooms upstairs consist of a master and another room that can sleep up to 4. But the best part is how well stocked it is. The owner provides toiletries and had a welcome basket for us! They also had walking sticks and a few necessities for the area to use (and return) like hiking sticks and bear spray. Check in and check out were easier than other places we’ve been. They also provided some suggestions on where to eat in the area. Highly recommended!

Glacier experience

We were immediately impressed with how wonderfully clean and inviting this place was! It definitely exceeded our expectations. The only negative for us was that the mattresses were more firm than we are used to, but overall our experience was excellent! We also appreciated that Jessica went out out of her way to extend her generous hospitality and was available if we needed anything. I highly recommend as a wonderful place to stay.

Jessica’s place is so comfortable , clean and convenient. We had a wonderful vacation, using this home as a base for our Glacier adventures. It was our 2nd trip to the area and we will rent again, when we return. Such great owners and the dogs are so playful. Loved it.

The property was great - everything as advertised and lots of extras. Would definitely stay here again. Fully appointed kitchen and the local restaurant recommendations were perfect. Super close to Glacier NP. Host responded very quickly but was not needed much becuase communication was so great.

AMAZING RENTAL

We had an amazing experience staying in Columbia Falls for our Glacier National Park vacation. Jessica was so quick with answering questions and was great at offering advice on attractions in the area. The rental was beautiful and fully stocked - you don't need to worry about everything because Jessica and the Family already have. The washer and dryer were such great assets to have on site after a long day of hiking and or swimming in lakes. To top it off Jessica welcomed us with a very thoughtful welcome gift - and are already using upon our return home. This is a MUST RENT!

Spectacular Choice

Here are the five reasons you should book this property: Location: We loved the location. Almost 20-25 minutes to the park. We left around 11 am every day and experienced zero traffic in August. Space: Immaculate. Stylistically furnished. Our family enjoyed the comfortable beds, spacious bathrooms, covered parking, bright living room, beautiful deck and a modern kitchen. Price: Based on what you get, for a family, this was a great price. Plus the financial integrity of the host is an icing on the cake. Amenities: The host has loaded this place up. You have everything in the kitchen that you need. The bathrooms have upscale soaps and shampoos, not the cheap mini soaps. Even the medicine cabinet is loaded with bug sprays and band aids. The host: This is the best part. Jessica is a phenomenal host. We felt like we were living with a family member. She gave me her cell phone weeks before we arrived. Constantly provided travel and sight seeing tips. Shared the preferred route to take from BZN. Gave us free bear spray, flash light and offered hiking stick. I mean who does that? All in all, this was one of our best vacation experiences. Thanks much.

Wonderful stay!

This was a fabulous place to stay! This home is absolutely adorable, it was stocked with everything that we could possibly need (and more), it turns out that we definitely didn't need to pack everything that we did. We received a very thoughtful welcome package, which we loved (Thanks, Jessica!)! It's a great, private location with access to the river and a quick drive to Glacier National Park. Jessica was quick to respond to questions and provided us with invaluable advice and great information about the area. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again someday soon!
