Excellent location to see both east and west glacier. Loved the privacy of the cabin and all the amenities you could ever need. We celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary and cooked out on the grill every night, and cozied up by the wood burning fireplace. Would recommend this cabin and definitely return.

Flawless Cabin!

We're so glad we found this cabin and rented it for our getaway to Glacier National Park! It is somewhat secluded but that is what I liked about it. One slightly visible neighbor through the trees but they made very little noise. My wife and I would most definitely stay here again!

Our stay at the True Montana Log Cabin was absolutely wonderful. The property felt very private and peaceful, tucked away on several acres with plenty of space to enjoy nature without any noise or crowds. The cabin itself was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.One of the highlights was how close we were to the national park — the drive was easy and scenic, and the views once we arrived were breathtaking. It made a perfect home base for exploring, and we loved coming back in the evenings to relax by the fire and enjoy the quiet surroundings.Overall, this cabin offered the perfect mix of privacy, comfort, and Montana charm. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway near the park. Loved it!

Wonderful and perfect

The cabin was wonderful, perfect for a getaway. We were visiting Glaciers National Park and it was convenient to the West entrance of the Park, about 30 minutes away. It was more than fully equipped, from the TP to the kitchen, which had all the spices, utensils, pots and pans, dishes and glasses and the whatnot you could want. We really enjoyed relaxing on the side deck. The atmosphere was very relaxing. The bed was comfortable. The shower was great, maybe not for a large person, but we were fine.

The cabin was perfect. Everything inside looked new and very well maintained. It allowed us to enter both East and West Glacier entrances in about an hour. The small town about 30 minutes away had places to eat and grcoery store. This was a real cabin in the real woods !!!
