About this property

A-Frame Hiker's Retreat

Disconnect, decompress, and disengage from the stresses of daily life in a comfortable, completely refurbished A-frame Cabin. Fall in love with the beauty and solitude here in the heart of one of America's greatest national treasures.

You'll enjoy breathtaking views of Glacier National Park's mountain ranges, waterfalls, and majestic lakes all within a short driving distance to the Many Glacier and St. Marys entrances to the park. Another scenic drive over Chief Mountain Road will take you to the historic town of Waterton located in Waterton National Park Alberta, Canada.
Your home away from home features a fully furnished space complete with kitchenette, separate bathroom and bed accommodations for couples and one or two children.

The proud owners would love to offer their suggestions for dining and recreational opportunities in the area. We have been rafting, biking, and hiking these unique, scenic trails for over 20 years.

Host profile image
We live in Jacksonville, Florida during the winter months and spend the summers at Duck Lake, Mt near Glacier National Park. We fell in love with this area when we first visited in the mid-1990s and were fortunate to buy property at Duck Lake in 2005. In 2017, we started renovations on our A-frame cabin and in 2019 had our first guests. We were unable to open in 2020 due to covid-19 and are thrilled to be back open for the 2021 season.

We enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, biking (mainly Ken), rafting, and horseback riding. It is especially enjoyable taking hikes in the backcountry of GNP when the weather is ideal, and the popular trails are busy. We also frequent the local performing art events and especially enjoy watching the enthusiasm of the young artists.

Ken is a retired Naval Officer and Networking Technology Professor and has visited and lived in several countries in the orient. Gena has an MBA, spent a year working in Mexico City with Arthur Anderson Accounting firm before she found her calling as a Computer Information Systems Professor where she worked until she recently retired (and where she met Ken).

We enjoy meeting our guests and sharing our knowledge of the area with them.

We have two small chihuahuas, Ruby and Teka, who love to be held and petted and one shy cat, Coco.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because it was close to the Many Glacier and St Mary entrances to the park. It is very quiet away from the busy tourist areas outside the gates of Glacier. The main thing that attracted us about this location is the panoramic views of the mountains from our lot.
