About the host
Hosted by Roz Hayes
We both grew up and have spent our lives in Montana. We went to school owned a small business and raised three great kids in Valier, Montana. Once the kids were grown, and off to college, we started a new adventure and moved to Billings. We have lived in a lot of towns in Montana but the mountains were calling us home. Our favorite place to be was in Glacier National Park and we were thrilled to be able to own property in this beautiful location . We bought the property in 2003 and couldn’t wait to get started on our cabin. We built the cabin and recently finished the carriage house. We now live here full time and hope that you enjoy this area as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
We have always loved the area around Glacier National Park. When our kids were growing up, our vacations were spent in Glacier. Each year, we look forward to taking a drive over Going to the Sun Road, one of the most beautiful and scenic drives in the world. We still enjoy spending time on the east side of Glacier Park, especially at Two Medicine, St. Mary and Many Glacier. Our favorite places on the west side include Apgar, Lake McDonald Fish Creek. Now being able to live halfway in between East and West Glacier is a dream come true.
