This beautiful, one-level Montana mountain lodge home is on 5 wooded acres in a most convenient location to everything!

Everyone has a comfortable seat to spread out on the ample plush sectional and loveseat perfect for movie nights in front of the large TV with surround sound. Charades anyone? Plenty of open space the in vast living area for games or your morning yoga stretches.
The walnut wood custom-crafted kitchen is outfitted with everything you need to prepare meals for everyone or to spread out a snack bar for a lazy day at home. A separate large dining table is adjacent to the kitchen (and open to living room) where you can sit and enjoy the view of the wildlife that frequent the area (especially deer and turkeys). The photo of deer next to the window was taken from the dining room!
A patio with a large gas grill awaits all your grilling adventures. There is even an outdoor fire pit where you can create your own smores and tell campfire stories. Outdoor games including cornhole and horse shoes are provided for more frolicking!
With in-floor heating, you won’t have cold feet in the 3 bedrooms, each with custom made Amish furniture made with cherry, hickory, and pine woods.

Need to do some work? Off the living area and right inside the front door is where the office is located. You’ll have a desk to tap away on your laptop, and cozy lounging couch for quiet reading.
If you have more than 6 people traveling with you, you have an option for renting the additional alpine chalet retreat above the garage for 2 more guests which is finished with tongue and groove blue pine throughout and has its own full bathroom for convenience.

Perfect location for heading to Under the Big Sky, Glacier Park and Whitefish.
Clean, comfortable and quiet. Great communication with the property manager. More house than we needed for our family of 4, but sure was nice to all have our own bedrooms.
We enjoyed our stay at Tamarack Haven. The house was spacious, comfortable, and had beautiful woodworking. We loved the large kitchen and family room. Communication was quick with property management. Location was great for travel to Glacier Park and very close to the airport. Deer and wild turkey visited us on the wooded property each day!
Perfect jumping off point for visiting Glacier NP and for a trip into Whitefish. Sitting out back in the woods and enjoying the deer and wild turkeys was the perfect way to end our day after hiking and sightseeing. Kitchen was well stocked with extras that I don't always see in other rentals, seasoning, condiments, etc. Very comfortable home with lots of room so each of the 5 adults in our family had their own space to retreat to, with a large comfortable living room to gather in. Host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend this beautiful home.
The house was in a beautiful setting. The inside was clean and appropriately furnished. We loved sitting outside on the patio in the evenings.
Communication was very good as well.
I gave the accuracy of the listing three stars because it said there were three baths, and one was only a half bath. They need to update the listing to 2 full and 1/2 bath.
Everything else was great! We enjoyed our stay!

Thank you for the kind words, Julie! The home has 3.5 bathrooms, and the 3rd full bath is in the loft above the garage which is an additional sleeping space that can be rented separately. We do see how that can be confusing, and we will be more specific in our listing. Thank you for feedback! It helps us to improve for future guests!
Our overall experience at this house was great. We had a lovely stay, the host was very attentive and helpful, and the house is beautiful! We loved having deer and turkeys and watching the wildlife. The kitchen is amazing, and the furniture was so comfy and usable. My only complaint would be that the house is very close to a train that blows its horn constantly. During the day, it wasn’t a problem or bothersome. However at night, it’s all night long. After the first night we got a sound machine and turned it up loud. After that it wasn’t really a problem, and the host was great, so I would still definitely recommend the property and be happy to stay here again. I just wish someone had said something prior so we were better prepared for it the first night.
