Our stay at the Cascade Cabin was amazing! It was clean, cozy, and the view makes you want to get up to watch the sunrise every morning. And the scent of the pines surrounding you is incredible. It's remote but the bumpy gravel road is worth it, and it's pretty close to the Glacier National Park.

Beautiful getaway

The cabin was amazing, very well kept up, cleaned, and decorated, with many cozy blankets. The location was perfect with easy side access into Glacier that missed all the traffic. We so appreciated the location close to the Polebridge Mercantile with all the amenities we needed. We loved the secluded getaway and quiet serenity at this beautiful location.

The property was incredible. It was Clean and newly built. Our favorite part was the views for sure! Bring binoculars for animal spotting. This property is remote; keep in mind you will take a 14 mile rough dirt road to access the property. But had Everything we needed; only suggestion would be to have some games available; if you have kids bring board games or card games. Polebridge mercantile was a quick 4 minute drive and had necessities like water, beer, toiletries, and delicious pastries.

Perfect Polebridge Stay!

This place was AMAZING! The property was very clean and well maintained. All furniture and appliances were up-to-date and worked perfectly. The location was stellar - very secluded and private, but was also a quick drive to the popular sites of Polebridge. The view was breathtaking and made it even better. We had an issue with check-in, but the host responded and handled the issue as quick as he could. We love this property and definitely want to go back! We would recommend it to anyone.

Simply didn’t want to leave!

Well, they knew what they were doing when they build this collection of four new, modern and well built cabins. Epic views, great hosts, incredibly quite and lovely stay. Few miles from the Mercantile there in Polebridge, this is so wonderfully remote, quite and just relaxing space you’ll find. Long gravel road north to this place just shy of the Canadien Border, but east drive to West Glacier. Had everything, was super comfortable and spotlessly clean. Great host! Could live here.
