Location was perfect for exploring glacier national park. The park is huge so be prepared to drive a lot if you’re trying to explore all the different areas of the park. The house is situated to explore both sides well. The house was clean, lots of kitchen items, comfortable beds, and new furniture over all. The train passed behind the house which is fun to watch. It doesn’t blow a horn signal. I would return and stay here again

Luxury Lodge

My family of 6 stayed here for a week and it was perfect! Everything we needed was there and the kitchen had every appliance and utensil needed for cooking. We cooked breakfast and dinner each day and my husband loved the grille! Beds were very comfortable and the host was excellent in replying to questions or concerns. Highly recommend and we definitely plan to come back!

Well built and thoughtfully designed and well stocked, spacious home

This home is well situated in a remote area but also close enough to Glacier. We enjoyed watching the trains go by. This home has spacious inside and outside areas to relax, play games, cook, eat & sleep comfortably.
