Ideal place to get away- serene/quiet; pictures don't do it justice! Scenery is breathtaking, river runs directly behind cabin. Also, the place has all the extra details that make it even more special- beds and sheets, extremely comfortable, 3-4 different grills, fully stocked kitchen, pots, pans, spices, first aid kit, fancy shower- multi wash system, large covered balcony...
Absolutely the best home in Polebridge! Katrina and the staff that care for this property are detail-oriented, and it showed! The grounds were perfectly maintained, the home immaculate, and the setting unsurpassed.
We had a wonderful time at the Red Meadow Lodge, it was the perfect spot for our trip to Glacier National Park. Truly an ideal off grid vacation experience and the views from the house are just breathtaking!
Amazing time in this hidden and quiet place, the views are to die for and it so peaceful, road up to property is a bit on the rough side but well worth the trip. Property has absolutely everything you could need to have an amazing time.
Amazing property! The views are incredible, pictures do not do it justice. We spent hours hanging at the river (family favorite). We also played horseshoes, cornhole, "hatchet" throwing, frisbee, monopoly, puzzles, etc... This off the grid cabin has everything you need (including internet for email and solar electricity). We'll be back!!
We absolutely loved it here!!! The Cabin was fully stocked with everything we needed, the views from the home were stunning ( we even took a little swim in the river),enjoyed a meal over the fire pit, and loved being disconnected for a few days. We will treasure the time we spent here surrounded by so much beauty!!
This property is an excellent choice for someone seeking beautiful scenery and solitude. The fishing opportunity directly from the property was wonderful along with the amazing backyard! The lodge has so much charm and character while still offering many modern comforts. We loved our stay!!
This remote property is perfect for a busy family to get away from technology and connect! The house is well stocked and clean. The views are worth the drive and we found the roads to be easy to navigate. This place is a must for your Glacier vacation!!
Amazing, sweeping views of Glacier and the North Fork! Really cool home. We will be back!

About the host
Hosted by Beth Ulrichsen
Red Meadow Lodge, overlooking the North Fork River and Glacier Park, was built by the Sue family using lumber from the property and local stone. It was the family’s retreat for over 40 years until current owners Frank and Sue fell in love with its rustic charm and purchased the Lodge in 2019. They have spent the past seven years preserving, restoring and updating the Lodge to be a place enjoyed by family and friends, and you, our guests.
What makes this property unique
Red Meadow Lodge is located on the banks of the North Fork of the Flathead River, bordering Glacier National Park. The North Fork River is a National Wild and Scenic River!
