Only 10 miles from the west entrance to Glacier National Park and a short drive to the Hungry Horse Reservoir and nearby Flathead Lake, our cabins are your perfect home base for exploring everything the area has to offer. Built during the 1950s while the Hungry Horse Dam was being constructed, these cabins were simple dwellings and at one time were without plumbing or electricity. They have been completely renovated, including new HVAC and are now darling little vacation homes with a lot of character and history.
This stylish little A-frame cabin features climate controlled heating and air conditioning, a comfortable king bed in the upstairs bedroom loft, and a big bathroom with double vanity. The kitchen is stocked with all essentials for cooking homemade meals, including basic spices and a coffee bar. The living area includes a queen size pullout sofa bed as well.

The place was beautiful and the location great. Super comfortable and easy to navigate around the park. Very clean and cozy home. It was a great place to stay!
Excellent location for visiting Glacier.15 minutes to Ranger station. Only thing we might add is to have the cleaner wipe down the ceiling fans otherwise perfect rental.
We had a fantastic stay at the Spotted Bear A-Frame. Rustic and cozy. Quick drive to Glacier, restaurants and stores.
As others have reviewed, wifi is very spotty, which did not bother us.
Would love to return here soon.

Cabin was cute and clean. Close to Glacier.
There were a lot of people staying in the cabins around us so the street got pretty crowded. Overall, the cabin was nice, clean, and central to a lot of great hiking. If my travels ever bring me back here, I would stay again.

Hi Jacqui. My apologies for the crowded street. We had a large family staying in one of the cabins. We hope to see you again!

The house was nice and clean. The owner communicated with us about the lights and remotes. A really nice stay.
Nice A frame. Great HVAC kept place cool. Had trouble with internet and manager took care of it promptly. Although not a resort, no additional amenities, it was clean and quiet. Good access to the park.
Wife and I recently went to Glacier National Park. We stayed at Spotted Bear A-frame for about 4 days. Everything was great! Easy check in, clean and felt safe. I will be staying here for future Glacier trips!
John was a great remote host. No hassels. We very much enjoyed this location.

So clean, bed was enormous and sooo comfortable. Loved the layout. Had everything we needed, and location was excellent for going to the park and heading into Columbia Falls and Kalispell for dinner. Highly recommend it. We would definitely return.
When we drove up there was a deer feeding in the yard . Nice way to arrive. Pretty setting, good accommodations, close enough to areas we wanted to be in.

Loved the comfy king sized bed in its cozy loft! Plenty of outlets at the bedside and in the bath. A Keurig machine with regular and decaf, as well as tea assortment, creamer and sugar. 20 minutes to the park. Very glad we stayed here!
I came for a solo retreat to get lost in glacier while having a comfortable, quiet, & relaxing place to myself. Literally everything was perfect for me. It’s close enough to west glacier, two medicine, & st. Mary’s to explore & adventure it all. I will definitely return & will never forget this life changing experience.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this classic A-frame cabin. It exudes coziness and comes well-stocked, making it feel like a home away from home. The bed, located on the second level, boasted a superb mattress ensuring restful nights. While the internet was a tad intermittent, it's understandable considering the rural locale. The cabin's location serves as an excellent base for exploring Flathead Lake, Whitefish, and the west side of Glacier National Park. We would definitely consider staying here again on our next visit.
Cute, comfortable, just as advertised and in a perfect location for access to the West entrance of Glacier National Park. Literally 15 seconds off the main highway leading to the park, but still quiet. Nestled in a small compound with other rentals so maybe not perfect if you’re looking for something very secluded. Wasn’t an issue for us and we found that it had absolutely everything we needed. The pizza place about 5 minutes up the road (toward the park) was terrific. Would recommend this property highly for 1-2 people looking for a well-located base camp for outings into Glacier.
We stayed at this property at the end of September. It's 15 minutes from the west entrance of GNP and in a quiet area. It was also bigger than we expected. If I had to complain, the wifi was spotty. It wouldn't have been an issue, but the TV runs off it, so it was difficult to watch a movie after a long day of hiking. If we end up in the area again, we wouldn't hesitate to stay here.
