Megan communicated well throughout our stay. The location is beautiful and peaceful and the yurt itself was so much fun to stay in. Highly recommend for a beautiful Montana getaway!
This was an awesome place to stay while visiting Glacier National Park! It was a relaxing stay and within good proximity to the towns around Glacier. I highly recommend The Nook!
Inside was beautifully done and they had REAL towels for a big guy. Coffee set up and kitchen were perfect for us. Deer with fawn both mornings! Nice view, so quiet. Loved it!

Hi Lucas ,
Thank you so much for your review. It makes me so happy to hear when guests enjoy our place.
This was a super cool place to stay. Views are amazing, you are way isolated but not to far. It’s a Flamming adventure for sure. Unique experience, 1 hr from west end of Glacier, Flathead lake is amazing!

Thanks Robb, we're glad you were able to enjoyed Flathead Lake and Glacier National Park. Thank you for your review and we hope you had a great rest of your trip!
My husband and I had a little couples get away and this was the perfect place!! We loved the view from the bed and seeing that stars at night. It was very quiet in the woods surrounding us. We were about 30 minutes from Kalispell and 1 hour from Glacier National Park. We'd definitely stay there again. Thank you!!
This was really in the woods..... Beautiful!! Deer Turkeys Rabbits Eagles and a Unique Experience....

Thanks Vicky, we're so happy to hear the skies were clear so you could enjoy the stars! The stargazing is our favorite part of staying in the domes.
This property was exactly as listed and was so quiet I was in heaven! The set up is perfect and you have exactly enough room to be comfortable and enjoy your time there. It is not a bad drive down a dirt road, and though you pass many other places it seems as if you are in the woods on your own! I loved everything about it.

Thank-you Laura, we're so happy you enjoyed the peace and quiet that is offered by the property. Have a great day!
Our stay with Red Owl’s Pine “tent” was absolute perfection - it met all of our needs as we explored Western Montana. We went all the way up to Kootenai falls in Libby, went on excursions in Glacier NP, and then took a drive around Flathead lake down to Missoula and back - the location was perfectly central, and had everything one could need to be comfortable for a week long stay. The AC was a godsend in this heat, and the private bathrooms were awesome.
Do take advantage of the Swan Mountain guided events - we took a Wine and Cheese llama trek: 10/10!
We will be back, and will bring friends!
Tip: Use google maps to navigate - Apple Maps falls short in this location.
This was such a neat experience. The dome is tucked away with another and a cabin but far off the beaten path. It's secluded enough to feel like you're out in the wilderness but close enough to "neighbors" in the dome and cabin to not feel stranded. The interior is compact as you'd expect, but having your own indoor bathroom area and small kitchenette was lovely. Megan is absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend also booking an excursion of some sort with her group, Swan Mountain Outfitters!
