Beautiful view of Flathead Lake. Cabin was super clean & had everything we needed. Our hosts Mints & Joe were excellent. Quick response to anything we asked & very friendly. Really enjoyed our time in Montana. Highly recommend
Very sweet cabin right on beautiful Flathead lake. Comfortable and clean with very warm and helpful hosts! One block away from a good coffee shop with good breakfast sandwiches. I would highly recommend this little gem!
Cabins and property was just as we expected view of the lake and direct access amazing - cabin was clean and had that great cabin feeling - location was central to lake sites and Minta and Joe were amazing host with area information and available if we needed anything - we look forward to going back
Check-in was flawless. The cabin was very clean and well stocked. The 150 foot private lake frontage and access to the dock during our stay was amazing. We appreciated our Host’s Joe & Minta’s hospitality.

This cabin was perfect for our base to explore Montana. It was clean, comfy and the bed was very comfortable. The owners were super friendly and welcoming. Access to the lake and kayaks, paddle board, etc were an awesome amenity. Lakefront with a magnificent view! Loved our stay here!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dora's Cabin. Minta and Joe's hospitality was second to none!We didn't spend a great deal of time in the cabin—there is simply so much to do on Flathead Lake! However, the time we did spend there was relaxing, comfortable, and enjoyable.Their generosity in providing access to lake activities, including kayaks, the fire pit, and other amenities, allowed us to fully experience and enjoy everything the lake has to offer.Minta and Joe were also full of great recommendations for activities around the lake, wonderful restaurants, and must-see attractions in nearby towns.We even spent an evening by the fire with them, enjoying great conversation and their company.What a wonderful gem they have shared with their guests. Dora's Cabin will always be a vacation destination for us, and we look forward to returning again and again!
Everything was just perfect, facilities and traveling with a dog the place was like home. Owners and relatives on the site were the nicest people I have met in a while!!! Beautiful view and lake!!!If we didn’t live far, we would be there often!!!
The cabin was so well thought out. It was cozy, clean and had everything you need. The view of the lake is gorgeous and the sunrise should not be missed.Minta and Joe were so nice, and helpful. We will definitely make another trip back.
Spent our 41st anniversary and couldn’t have picked a better place. Joe and Minta are awesome hosts. Cabin was beautiful and accommodating. Great recommendations for food and history of sites on the lake. They are very hospitable and we enjoyed our fireside chatter. Thanks to you both for a wonderful visit and stay.
We celebrated our 10th anniversary at this beautiful place. It was soo relaxing. Our German Shepherd, Lakota, was welcome. All 3 of us loved being on the lake and playing on the very spacious grounds. The cabin itself was cozy and tastefully decorated. Our 10th anniversary was lovely and we made some great memories at this beautiful place. Thank you!
Loved the lake view and super quick access to the water. Parking was right outside the door. The rental was very clean and cute; did not go without a thing. The owners were so nice and accommodating. The drive to West Glacier took us on many adventures in between! Would definitely stay again.
Everything was perfectly well thought out between all the small details you need, the comfortable bed, bathroom, kitchen etc. We were easily able to stop by for groceries prior and spent the days by the lake and the nights star gazing. Relaxation at its finest. Thank you to our amazing hosts!
First, the house was exceptionally clean. It was just the two of us, so it was the perfect size. When we first arrived, we were greeted by the hosts who were extremely friendly and welcoming. I wished we could’ve stayed longer to actually use the kayaks on the lake because the property was perfect for it. We did get to enjoy the sunrise over the lake each morning which was absolutely gorgeous. 10/10 would recommend.

Smoking
Accusing me of smoking in the cabin when I don’t smoke and requesting some fee! I kept it nice and clean never had anyone ever accuse me of anything staying with VRBOs. It was so hot had the AC going the whole time these people are liars and cheats! I put pizza boxes and food in the trash? It’s hot? IDK but I’ll stay far away from these people!

Wish I could post a print screen, but can’t. So I copied and paste EXACTLY what was said. This is not all the messaging, but you can see who is lying…. According to his message to me he does smoke! .
From me: Luke I’m a real easy host, I’ve had lots guest that smoke pot outside, I don’t judge, I don’t care. But honestly this was the worst I’ve experienced in 3 years hosting. I even had my nephew go into the cabin and he had the same reaction. It truly was very strong and overwhelming. You had opened windows and had the fans on but that wasn’t enough. If your not willing to pay for the extra cleaning, fine I’m not going to push it. But it’s very clear that there was direct smoking of some kind in the cabin. Secondary smoke would not have been be that strong inside.
Lukes response: I didn’t smoke in the cabin! I kept some in a bag in the kitchen that was it. I only smoked at my truck end of story. Good weed nowadays smells strong I’m sorry about that I didn’t realize. You have signs posted on the fridge I didn’t disrespect your property like that. I never once even opened a window it was too hot kept the AC on the whole time. Guess I should’ve kept it in the truck just didn’t want it to get stolen out of there to be honest don’t know your property and everyone there. It’s very clear to me that you’re overreacting and just jump to conclusions! Have a nice life.
My property is non smoking. Due to the smell in the cabin I had to do extra cleaning so my next guests didn’t walk into a place that smelled like marijuana.
The cabin was clean and well stocked. The hosts were very friendly and hospitable. The yard was beautiful and the access to the lake and kayaks was amazing. We loved that we could bring our dog and let him run around and play with other dogs. The hosts mention that they may be on the property, but they are actually there all summer. They have friends and family coming on the property constantly. The gazebo was almost always full of people, so we couldn't really use it and made it so we didn't want to use the fire pit because it wouldn't give us privacy. It definitely had more of a campsite feel than a private cabin. If you're super social and don't care about a private outdoor space, then this is a great place for you to stay.

Cari, thank you for staying with us and for your kind words about the cabin, property, lake access, and kayaks. We’re also so glad your dog was able to enjoy the space!
We’re sorry the shared outdoor areas weren’t quite what you were expecting. We do try to be very transparent in our listing and booking information that the property and outdoor amenities are shared and that we may be on-site. During the summer months, especially in July, we do spend quite a bit of time at the property and occasionally have family and friends visit as well.
We completely understand that some guests are looking for a more private cabin experience, while others really enjoy the social atmosphere and shared lakefront space. We appreciate your feedback and will continue making sure the shared nature of the property is as clear as possible for future guests.
Thank you again for staying with us, and we’re happy you were able to enjoy beautiful Flathead Lake!
