Enjoy access to all that Whitefish Mountain Resort has to offer year-round. With the Elk Highlands private community chairlift just steps from the home, you can enjoy quick access to the award winning slopes of Whitefish Mountain Resort. *Please note: this ski lift operation is snow dependent; since it’s at a slightly lower elevation, it starts spinning a couple weeks after the resort opens for the season and stops spinning a couple weeks early. The fun doesn’t stop in the summer months - from treetop rope courses to mountain biking & riding the alpine sleds, the mountain is active year-round! Hike & explore Glacier National Park (just a 45 minute drive) or check out the trails literally in your backyard - the Holbrook Overlook trail or Danny On Trail.  Picturesque downtown Whitefish is just a 10 minute drive, offering boutique shops, excellent restaurants & nightlife.
