Glacier Springs-Cozy Villa situated in an Aspen forest with view of Glacier Park
Glacier Springs is a compact, cozy and comfortable villa. The villa is completely surrounded by Aspen forest with birds, wildlife and view of St. Mary Divide and the Rockies right ouside the door. Nestled in Babb, this delightful Villa offers a serene, tranquill and panoramic retreat for guests.
The home interior is entirely crafted with wood giving it a peaceful rustic feeling. The large kitchen and laundry use the most modern LG appliances and most all cooking amenities than you would have at home.
The entrance patio deck offers an expansive view of the surrounding area. The unique vantage point of the Eastern Rockies as viewed from the West side of St Mary Ridge. The name “Glacier Springs” came from naturally occurring water springs that exist to the East side of cabin on the ridge.
The Springs has a comfortable bunk bed with a lower full size bed and upper twin bed. The Villa is fantastic property perfect for family of 3. There is 1/2 bathroom located in the sleeping area as well.
I enjoy cooking at home with friends and family rather than going out to the few local restaurants, thus the full kitchen. Once you arrive and open a bottle of wine, you will not want to leave. . Another highlight of the Springs is the 14" dia. flagstone fire pit to view the Milky Way or occasional Aurora Borealis. The sky here is unlike any place you have been. Glacier National Park is a designated International Dark Sky Park, a certification awarded l in recognition of its commitment to preserving darkness.
The Springs is located 1mi off Highway 464 in Babb, Montana. The home is 12mi drive to Both St Mary and Many Glacier park entrances. The home is 45min drive to Waterton and Two Medicine along the incredible Highway 49.
The Springs is located on the South side of Divide Ridge such that there is a a 180 degree view of the East side of the Rockies. The cabin has a large shared open semi forested green space area with a fire pit area with wood supplied. There are trails from the cabin to explore the surrounding property and forest. Be prepared to possibly see wildlife right outside your door at any time of day, but most likely early morning. Deer, Elk, Moose, Black Bear and Grizzly bear, red fox, coyote and skunk all live in the area. The Springs is located in a lush forested and fertile area because of the local springs.

Place was as described, secluded, clean and well accommodating. Jon was readily available for any questions or concerns we had ensuring us a safe and enjoyable trip. Nice spot on the east side of glacier.
Great place to stay! incredibly well stocked - the host has a great attention to detail and you’ll find everything you need in the cabin. Great views and amazing location. We loved the experience. I highly recommend!
We loved this property. Extremely clean and excellent location to access many glacier and going to the sun road from the east. I highly recommend this property and host!
Small property set up with everything needed and more - full kitchen with fridge/freezer, stove/oven, microwave & dishwasher, washer/dryer, AC, bathroom with shower and separate curtained off sink/toilet area, deck with comfy seating, BBQ, bear spray/bug spray, comfy beds & linens. Firepit with seating and wood available and lots of lovely deer meandering through the area. I wish we were able to stay more than one night.
We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Bring whatever food you need in. It’s a long drive to the grocery store. We used the grill and the stove top to prepare meals. It’s a very quiet area. The caretaker stays in the camper next door and there are two more campers that are vacation rentals. Very close to the east entrance and Many Glacier entrance. Definitely the quiet side of the park. We would stay here again
Great small cabin on East side of Glacier National Park. Very close to the Many Glacier entrance. Setting is beautiful and peaceful. Jon is a great host and responds timely to requests.
Perfect location for exploring the east side of Glacier NP! Very well appointed - comfortable- quiet - plus two great labs to pet that live next door! Would definitely stay here again.

Thank you and happy the home was as expected. About the TV, sorry to hear. I did a check and it looked all it needed was a channel update. Normally this is done automatically however, it may have been between updates.
We had a great time in Babb and the views from the cabin were great. The cabin is close to several RVs so the atmosphere is similar to a campground but the other guests were nice. The inside of the cabin is small but has really nice appliances and amenities. Would stay here again!
This was a wonderful tiny spot - has everything you need (except a hot tub). Such a great location if you are hiking at many glacier and st Mary’s!!! We’d definitely come back.
Very nice place to stay and conveniently located to the park, beautiful property with everything we needed. Owner communication is great and offered to help with anything we needed. We didn't cook but it was hooked up with everything we would have needed, and the washer/dryer was great to have at the end our our travels.
The house worked out great for us. I appreciated how efficient it was organized. Jon did a great job providing directions to the property and suggestions for grocery shopping. Jon was very quick to respond to our emails during our stay.
Extremely clean, comfortable stay with great view!
This was a lovely small home. Bigger than other “Tiny Homes” we’ve stayed this was extremely comfortable for my fiancé and I. Fits everything we needed in the space in a way that didn’t feel overly cramped. Bed was comfortable. Directions to the house were easy to follow. We would definitely book again!
This cozy place has everything you need to hang out and hike. Interior is thoughtfully planned, well done and the decor gives off all
the Montana vibes 😍 Full kitchen, refrigerator, coffee maker, tea kettle, washer/dryer, and more. Loved it!
My son and I loved this small cabin. It was perfect for us! Connie, the grounds manager, was wonderful. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The owner was very responsive to all communication I had. Thank you for the memories!
Loved this little gem! Had everything you need. I do recommend bringing some snacks/food. If we are ever in the area again, we'll definitely stay here. There is a diner in Babb, only open during tourist season, had the best burgers!! I hear breakfast is great too.
jWe found the cabin a bit cramped but it has everything you need including a well-equipped kitchen, good wifi and TV streaming services, even a washer and dryer. Great access to the Many Glacier area, where we were hiking. Caretaker Connie is friendly and helpful.

About the host
Hosted by Jon C
I am an outdoor enthusiast whom fell in love in both Glacier and Waterton National Parks when I was a child. I jumped at the chance to purchase this unique property when it came available from a grand child of Jack Wagner, a historic pioneer of this area.
Why they chose this property
I choose this area due to the remoteness, mountains and peace. The the short distance to both Calgary and Whitefish made coming out for the weekend easy.
What makes this property unique
The East side of Glacier Park sees much fewer tourists of the West side. The East side however offers close proximity to the majority of Iconic hikes, such as Grinnell Glacier, Iceberg Lake, Cracker Lake and Hidden lake. Wildlife is much more abundant for species such as moose, elk, bear and deer.
The Glacier Springs and Glacier Ridge property faces the West so you enjoy having a 180 degree view of the mountains, the sunset and Northern Lights all outside your door.
