About this property

Steps to the River! River Edge Cabin

River Edge log cabin only 10 minutes to the West entrance of Glacier National Park. This beautiful cabin is located on a private ranch just steps to the river bank of the Middle Fork River with river access. Located just a 1 minute drive or 5 minute walk to 4 fishing/swimming accesses. A fisherman's dream vacation spot! You can access the river through the woods and down the trail. Steep decline to be expected.

This one level cabin also offers a full size kitchen for all your cooking needs and a cozy dining area seating for 4. There are two private bedrooms down the hall each offering one Queen bed. Down the same hall you will find one shared full size bathroom.

On this working ranch, you will find our loveable friendly dogs and horses. Feel free to spend some time petting our ranch animals, they love the attention. Finish your evenings playing in Montana great outdoors by enjoying some star gazing outside or building a small campfire in the firepit off the main deck. A true Montana log cabin outside Glacier National Park!

So cozy

We love log cabins and this one was so nice. Stayed for our trip to Glacier NP and enjoyed the ability to cook breakfast and dinner and chill after long days of hiking. Love the horses and the dog greeting you as you come in

The cabin is in a very quiet area, which was what we wanted after hiking in Glacier during the day. It's very close to both the park and to Columbia Falls, where we went for dinner on two nights. It was clean, had everything we needed, and was larger than the photos make it appear. We really enjoyed our stay and would book this again.

Quiet Cabin Across from Glacier National Park

Thís was the last stop on our 18 day National Park road trip from Southern California. My friend and I thought this was our favorite place to call home on our trip! The cabin is so comfortable and quiet due to the location. There is everything you'd need for a comfortable stay. It is so close to an entrance of the park and Going-to-the-Sun Road.

Property exceeded our expectations. It was clean, had extra supplies we weren’t expecting, and check in and check out was simple and easy. Nice cozy spot for relaxing after days spent traveling and hiking the park.

Cozy quiet comfortable cabin

We found the River Edge Cabin to be a perfect fit for our three day visits to Glacier. The information provided prior our arrival was most helpful (where to get groceries,etc) and check in was painless. The information book had plenty of helpful suggestions and check out very easy. We would definitely suggest this to others visiting Glacier.

Private, quiet cabin

We loved this cozy, quiet cabin. It's well maintained and clean. The cabin is located a short walk to the river and is in the woods. We loved being welcomed by the owner's two beautiful dogs.

Pristine Cabin with creature comforts

Very clean newer construction well furnished cabin ideally located near the Flathead River. Christine is a great property manager and a good communicator. We enjoyed playing with the owner’s 2 dogs(Porter and Willy). Is a great location for GNP and surrounding areas. Would stay again.

Wonderful space

Really enjoyed our space at the cabin. It's walking distance to the river, which was great. We loved seeing the horses in the evening, and using the hiking path in the morning. Cabin was clean and had everything we needed for a family of 4. Driving distance to pretty much everything (10-15 minutes to the park, 30 minutes to Kalispell). If in this area, I recommend.

Outstanding comfort and convenience

Christie made everything easy for us from start to finish! I HIGHLY recommend staying at River Edge cabin. We loved having fully stocked kitchen amenities, so we could cook dinner and eat on the deck a couple of times. Quiet, country setting. Easy to get to West Glacier entrance and nearby town of Columbia Falls with restaurants, stores, etc.

Everything from booking, payment, instructions, check in and check out was easy and efficient. Thank you for an enjoyable stay! Christine checked in with us multiple times before and during our stay, keeping us very well informed of all the necessary details and reminders. Once was just a check in to see if we needed anything. All were appreciated!

Great Stay

We loved staying in this cabin on our trip to Montana. If you're looking to go to Glacier National Park most days, the access to the park from here is great. The cabin was comfortable and had a fairly well stocked kitchen. I was nervous about the warm summer days and the lack of AC, but it was honestly not an issue. The access to the river is very easy and our daughter loved the visits from the dogs and visiting the horses in the evening. Thanks for letting us make great memories here :)

Glacier perfection

This cabin was ideal for our stay. 15 minutes from the gates of glacier national Park. Ultra quiet. Very clean and Beautiful cabin nicely appointed. Friendly horses visit via the pasture right behind the cabin. Sitting at the fire pit with a crackling fire, and enjoying a beverage during the beautiful evening and snapping pics of the amazing stars all made our trip spectacular. I highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a reset. Also, the river access is literally a three minute walk Through the trees. Beautiful sunsets and fishing right there. The host was very responsive and a pleasure to work with.
