2 Miles to Going-to-the-Sun Road - Glacier NP – 8 Private Wooded Acres – Hot Tub

Daniel, thank you so much. Hosting your family was exactly the kind of gathering we hoped Three Bear Basecamp would make possible. We had to smile at your first-night message that you weren’t sure you were going to get the grandkids to leave the property & go into Glacier! Seeing the notes and drawings they left behind afterward made that even more special. We finished Three Bear Basecamp with multigenerational family time in mind—plenty of room to gather for a real meal, outdoor spaces where the kids can play & explore, comfortable places for everyone to spread out, and somewhere that feels good to come home to after a full day adventuring in Glacier. Your vrbo message at the end of the week saying you had a terrific stay & that 3BB was the best vacation home you had ever stayed in absolutely made our day. Even more meaningful was reading in the guest book that the thoughtful details helped make it feel like a “home away from home.” That is exactly what we hope families will find here. Thank you for choosing Three Bear Basecamp for this time with your children & grandchildren. We hope all of you carry some wonderful Montana memories home with you. Warmly, Patty & John

Courtney, thank you so much! We loved having your family at Three Bear Basecamp & are especially happy to know the property went beyond your expectations. One of our favorite things about hosting families near Glacier is helping make the time between the adventures just as memorable—the kids finding things to play with, huckleberry picking, spotting wildlife in the woods, everyone having room to spread out, evenings together outside under the Montana stars, & a comfortable place to come home to after a full day in the Park. It was such a pleasure helping your family think through your Glacier days, too. With different ages & interests traveling together, a little local planning can make such a difference while still leaving plenty of room for spontaneity. Thank you for trusting us with such a special family trip. We hope those Montana memories—and a few of those big smiles!—stay with all of you for a very long time. Warmly, Patty & John

Erika, thank you so much for your thoughtful review. We loved having your family at 3BB during the Glacier portion of your national-parks adventure! Knowing you were already into the second week of a family road trip made us especially happy to hear that everyone had plenty of room to spread out, play & recharge. We hope 3BB gave your family a comfortable place to slow down together between all of those big Montana adventures. And your comments about the kitchen mean a lot to us. We know that for families traveling together, being able to come home after a long day in Glacier, prepare a real meal & gather around the big kitchen island can be every bit as important as having comfortable beds. We’ve tried to equip the kitchen accordingly, so hearing that it was the most well-equipped you’ve encountered in a vacation home was a wonderful compliment. Most of all, thank you for recognizing the care behind the experience. We genuinely enjoy helping families make the most of their time here while giving them plenty of space to enjoy the adventure their own way. We hope your family looks back on your Tetons, Yellowstone & Glacier road trip for many years to come—and that Three Bear Basecamp holds a happy little place among those memories. Warmly, Patty & John

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. It was truly a pleasure to host your family. Hearing that Three Bear Basecamp was such a great fit for your multi-generational gathering means a great deal to us. We could almost picture those five young cousins enjoying the hammocks, slackline, & deck while the adults relaxed nearby. Creating a place where families can reconnect & make lasting memories is exactly why we built Three Bear Basecamp. We also loved helping with ideas for both Glacier adventures & nearby local experiences. It sounds like your family made the most of every day—and even enjoyed one of nature's greatest surprises when your mother-in-law caught the Northern Lights from the deck! Thank you as well for the thoughtful gift you left for our wonderful cleaning team. Your kindness meant so much to them. Now that you've experienced Glacier in both October & July, we'd love the opportunity to welcome you back in another season. One of the remarkable things about this place is that it's never quite the same twice—but it's always beautiful. Warmly, P&J

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking such wonderful care of Three Bear Basecamp. It was a joy hosting your crew. We loved reading about your adventures throughout NW Montana in our guest book & hearing that 3BB served as such a comfortable basecamp for exploring everything from Waterton & Glacier to the Bison Range. Iceberg Lake is certainly a memorable hike, & we're delighted that Glacier's wildlife put on quite a show for your group with bears & mountain goats, while our neighborhood cross fox, and our little fawn making regular appearances around the property. We're especially happy that the woods, house, hammocks, decks, books, maps, & little extras helped everyone relax & recharge after each day's adventures. Sharing our home with families & friends who appreciate this special corner of Montana is exactly why we enjoy opening Three Bear Basecamp to others. Thank you again for choosing Three Bear Basecamp. We hope Glacier and Northwest Montana continue calling your family back for years to come. Warmly, Three Bear Basecamp 🐾

Mariette, Thank you so much for this generous review. It was such a joy getting to know what mattered most to your family before you arrived & helping narrow Glacier’s many possibilities into hikes, river time, meals & local moments that best fit your crew. Personal trip planning is one of our favorite parts of hosting at Three Bear Basecamp, and we’re always happy to include that kind of help as part of a 3BB stay. Knowing this trip brought your mom Marianne, her children & grandchildren together in Montana to celebrate her 80th made it especially meaningful. We loved reading the notes your family left in our guest book too—hearing that the adults found places to truly relax while the kids explored the swings, treehouses & outdoor spaces, and that the compass wildflower garden fire pit became the setting for three nights of s’mores, made us smile. The kids sure used those fire-poking sticks we left out …. or was that the adults ;0) We’re so glad your Mom enjoyed the private deck after long Glacier days, and that 3BB’s location made those spontaneous evening trips into the park so easy. Thank you as well for taking such wonderful care of our home. We would be absolutely delighted to welcome your family back—perhaps to experience a completely different season of Glacier next time! Patty & John

Thank you, Susan, for your ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ five-star review! It was an honor to host you at Three Bear Basecamp! Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience, both in this review and the touching entry you wrote in our guest book. We are so happy that you had a great time, not just at Glacier, but also enjoying the indoor and outdoor comforts of 3BB and seeing the wildlife that frequents our property here at the doorstep of the Crown of the Continent. If you get a chance, we welcome a 3BB Facebook tag / review so we can see a few of your favorite ❤️Glacier or 3BB 🐻🐻🐻property spots! Come see us again!

Another {5-star} review!! Thank you, Paul, for taking the time to provide your ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review. We take great pride in our property at the doorstep to Glacier and all the positive feedback from our guests fuels our passion for sharing our little slice of paradise. From the time you booked your visit last year, we were excited about your ambitious plans for your month in Montana! From you & your wife RVing 30+ hours from the southeast, organizing your Company’s Board of Director retreat in the Glacier area & then separately planning your shared vacation-time with your adult children with their families for a week at Three Bear Basecamp. Just….Wow😮! With that unBEARably busy but wonderful July schedule, we especially value your time in providing kind & quick feedback on our perfect location & many 🐻 🐻 🐻 amenities. We were a bit surprised by the disclosure comment in your review, because the possibility of our presence in our RV has been fully disclosed from the time it went up on VRBO. That listing states: “Please note: 3BB owners occasionally live on the 8 wooded acres. You may see them from time to time come & go in the distance along the shared part of the driveway…..Your utmost privacy will always be respected while staying on property.” We also went back to review all communications since your Dec. 8, 2023 booking request. Part of the VRBO booking process requires an acknowledgment of the house rules, policies and rental agreement. The following is on the first page / welcome letter potion of your VRBO booking acknowledgment: “…..So, whether this is your first trip to Glacier or your 12th, if you have any questions, feel free to ask us if we’re on property, staying in our RV.” This same rental agreement / disclosure text was in the attachment sent back when your booking request was approved the same day. In March of this year, when we were exchanging texts regarding the placement options for your large RV on property, we sent a picture of a potential space on our property for your RV, indicating that the space in the picture was further from the home, and closer to the location of our RV where we sometimes stay during the summer. We are very glad that my presence on property (watering new plantings during an unseasonable heatwave) was not a bother during your stay. When watering is required, my goal is to do it when guests have left the property to go into the park – so that the groundskeeping required to make 3BB so special does not to distract from our guests’ time together on property. When John & I decided to make our Glacier home available to guests, we constructed an RV site in a wooded area nearly a football field from the home, along with a low impact access road so that the portion of the driveway and parking areas close to the home are for the exclusive use of our guests. Our goal was for the RV and our access to it to be hidden from view inside the house, on the decks, or the outdoor amenity areas. We believe that goal was achieved! We put our heart and soul into ensuring the property is perfect and private for every guest to make lifelong memories with their loved ones. Your delightful family is welcome back anytime and left one of the most kindhearted and entertaining entries in our guest registry book! We especially loved the fun drawings of the fat squirrel / chipmunks that your grandchildren dubbed Samuel, Alvin & Chippy - just perfect 😆! Your daughter & daughter-in-law are allows us to share their sweet artwork on our 3BB Facebook page ❤️ Safe travels home! Appreciatively, Patty

A Five Star Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! Thank you for your this and for the very kind message you left in our 3BB guestbook on property. It was a pleasure hosting your family of six. We just love ❤️ how you pulled together a wonderful visit to Glacier together in a short amount of time. Beyond providing a clean, comfortable well-appointed basecamp, we were happy to be part of you creating those amazing family memories by sharing recommendations & lining up Going-to-the-Sun Road Reservations. We hope you make it back real soon to explore more of this remarkable area. Kids grow up SO fast! If you get a chance, we welcome a 3BB Facebook tag so that we can see a few of your favorite Glacier or 3BB 🐻🐻🐻property photos! Thanks and hope to see again!

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful five star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that your stay at Three Bears Basecamp was everything you hoped for—and more. It means the world to us that you found the home beautiful, clean, and well-equipped, and that it provided a perfect retreat after your Glacier Park adventures. It’s wonderful to know you had the chance to both explore local restaurants and enjoy a peaceful evening dining on the deck surrounded by nature. That balance of adventure and relaxation is exactly what we hope our guests experience! Thank you as well for the kind words—it was truly a pleasure hosting you. You're welcome back anytime, and we’d love to host you again if your travels bring you back to Glacier! Warmly, Patty

Karen it was a pleasure hosting your family. Groups like yours - multi-generational families - is what we ❤️love most about opening 3BB for guests. 🤗 It's great that you & David pull this adventure together for your family. Making time to create amazing life-long memories whether exploring Glacier our relaxing on property among the pines, aspens & firs, roasting marshmallows or star gazing on one of the high decks. All about a shared experience with the ones you love -- rafting, horseback riding, hiking, cooking out, exploring Three Bear Basecamp woods -- what a week! Early on, when you reached out directly to narrow down your itinerary options, we could tell that family time is precious to you & David. We were honored to be a part of the #MontanaMoments you created. Please share some of your favorite photos of three generations 🥰 exploring the Crown of the Continent. Tag us on FB. We hope you visit us again - next time the grands will be old enough to whitewater the wild & scenic Flathead River, mountain zip-line & eBike Going-to-the-Sun road! Grands + Glacier = Such fun at every stage / season!

High deck yoga and beer delivery? Thank you so much for your kind 5-star review — we think you’ve just set a new gold standard for guests! 😊 We also loved your sweet guest book note. “Yoga with the birds” on the big deck might just be our new favorite visual — what a perfect way to start or end the day here! And the three beers you left in the fridge for our exceptional cleaning crew — are we rebranding to Three Beers Basecamp? 😄 You two families were so thoughtful — thank you! We're so glad you felt at home and enjoyed the peaceful setting, the wildlife, all the little touches, and the visit suggestions. The graceful (and sometimes playful!) deer, chipmunks, pine martens, birdsong, and quiet woods really do make it easy to relax at the end of the day. Now we’re curious — where did the Baby Martin guitar get played? By the firepit, the hot tub, or up on the high deck? It’s always fun when guests realize just how close we are to Glacier. Whether it’s 2.7 miles to the West Glacier entrance or 4 miles to the Apgar Visitor Center, it truly feels like the park is part of our backyard — especially when you're lakeside under the Northern Lights. That quick drive is just 5–10 minutes during 10 out of 12 months of the year! We’d be absolutely delighted to welcome you back anytime.

We are so happy that you made “Three Bear” your “Basecamp” for your family’s Glacier adventures! When we first considered putting our home on VRBO, we had groups like yours in mind – families who want to see and experience one of the world’s most beautiful places and the many wonders of nature while making lifelong memories with loved ones. It warms our hearts to see guests take full advantage of how close we are to the park to be able to maximize time in Glacier, while still having time to take in the farmers market and other offerings in nearby towns. Thank you for being such wonderful guests, and we hope to see you and your family back at 3BB! Meanwhile, be sure to like and follow us on FB for continually updated information. Thanks again!

Another ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review! Thank you Lacy for taking the time to provide such a thoughtful review. It warms our hearts to share our home with families who have come to explore the wonder of nature that is Glacier National Park! Close, secluded, comfortable, private and well-appointed were some of our objectives when creating Three Bear Basecamp for use by family and friends! We are glad your young family made the most of the many 3BB 🐻🐻🐻amenities. A day filled exploring such a truly spectacular place as Glacier National Park is made even more perfect when evenings are spent in a home with comfortable places to gather, relax and rejuvenate with loved ones. It’s wonderful that you shared the rugged natural beauty of Montana & Glacier with your little one. If your time here planted a seed of seeking nature & star-filled evenings in your child❤️, we hope you make it back to this special place. We are honored to have been part of creating that special family memory.

Thanks for the five-star review! It was our pleasure to be part of your family building life-long memories and celebrating some wonderful milestones too! From the location, layout, storage and many amenities, we designed Three Bear Basecamp to make the most of time spent with loved ones. It sounds as if you did just that! It's great that your group took advantage of the many comfortable places and ways to rest & relax at 3BB after your days adventure. You built a marvelous itinerary filled with great activities yet found some quite time to gather huckleberries while on property. Did you mean to leave some of those sweet gems behind in a glass 🤗? If you get a chance, we welcome a 3BB Facebook tag / review so we can see a few of your favorite ❤️Glacier or 3BB 🐻🐻🐻property spots! Hope to see some of your favorite photos and that you make it back soon.

Thank you for such wonderful feedback—and especially for trusting Three Bear Basecamp with such a meaningful week for your family. Knowing that you were able to return to Montana together, celebrate your parents’ 50th anniversary, share stories & watch wildlife from the decks, pick huckleberries, soak in the hot tub after Glacier adventures, and create new family traditions is exactly why we love sharing 3BB! It was especially meaningful to know that your parents first gave your family the gift of Montana—and that this reunion gave all of you the opportunity to return that gift to them. We loved hearing how the house, wooded acres, decks, indoor & outdoor kitchens, children’s spaces, hiking supplies, & RV site all helped your entire family stay together and enjoy such a special week. Your family was an absolute joy to host, and we feel truly blessed that 3BB could be part of your family’s story. Thank you for your extraordinarily kind words & for allowing us to play a small part in your family creating lifelong memories together. You will always be part of the Three Bear Basecamp family—and now that you have found us, we would be honored to welcome all of you back to Montana someday.

Thank you so much for your incredibly thoughtful review. Reading comments like yours reminds us why we chose to open our home to other families. It means so much to hear that Three Bear Basecamp became more than just a place to stay—that it became a comfortable home base where you could relax, reconnect, & create lasting memories together while exploring Glacier National Park and Northwest Montana. We're especially happy you enjoyed the outdoor spaces, the woodland setting, & the little details throughout the house. We put a great deal of thought into creating a place that feels welcoming, comfortable, & ready for friends & families to enjoy both adventure & quiet moments together. Your kind words about our trip planning & local recommendations are especially meaningful. Helping guests discover this incredible corner of Montana has become one of our favorite parts of hosting. Thank you again for trusting us with your vacation. It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we'd be honored to welcome you, your family & friends back to 3BB anytime. 🐾

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay at 3BB and appreciate you sharing a few of your favorite photos and a very thoughtful review. Like you, a quick pop into the Park for stars, Northern Lights and wildlife viewing is something we absolutely love doing! It's a real advantage to being so very close to the entrance, yet just far enough for relaxing on the huge deck surrounded by quite forest. We look forward to your return visit to this very special place.

Thank you Jim for your kind words & five-star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️review. John & I are thrilled that we were able to open-up Three Bear Basecamp and that it exceeded your expectations. We’re honored to be a small part of creating these life-long memories ❤️and you start your life together. Personalizing #MontanaMoments and navigating Glacier’s endless options based on individual goals & itinerary is something we truly enjoy doing. You had a perfect itinerary for introducing Bibi to this beautiful area. We hope that next time, in addition to enjoying the upper deck fire-pit, sunrise, moonrise, you will experience the Northern Lights dancing. Being SO very close to the first International Dark Sky Park greatly increases that possibility! We hope you can manage a trip back with your north Florida friends very soon! Congratulations and continued blessings as you begin the greatest of adventures💒⚭!

Thank you so much for this amazing five-star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review! We’re so happy to hear you and your friends had such a great stay at Three Bear Basecamp. It truly means a lot that you noticed all the little details—we’ve put a lot of heart into making the space feel like a cozy home away from home, with the modern comforts and generous spaces that help guests relax and recharge after a day full of adventures. It sounds like you really made the most of everything—from the hot tub and fire pit to the patio spaces and play area. And yes, the deer are practically part of the welcome committee—they love to wander through and add to the peaceful, wooded vibe! We’re especially thrilled to hear our local tips came in handy! Your photos from the kayaking spot and your big horn sheep sightings were such a treat to see—it makes us so happy when guests get to experience the magic of those places, especially at just the right times based on their travel goals. And you're right—being less than two miles from Glacier’s west entrance and Going-to-the-Sun Road makes it so easy to maximize your time in the park. That’s one of our favorite things about this location, too. Thanks again for staying with us and sharing your experience (and those awesome photos!)—we’d love to welcome you back anytime! 🐻🐻🐻

Thank you Mark for your kind words and for trusting Three Bear Basecamp with your family’s first trip to Glacier National Park. It was our pleasure helping you successfully secure road reservations for each day of your visit, to share some favorite family-friendly places and hikes. It warms our hearts to see guests take full advantage of how close 3BB is to the park to be able to maximize time in Glacier, while still having time to relax, explore and play in our quite wooded property . We specially loved all the wildlife photos you captured both at Three Bear Basecamp and GNP! Thanks for sharing them. The countless deer, chubby squirrels and sweet chipmunks are frequently in residence at 3BB but your photo of the new fawn was exceptional! Your wonderful photography skills also capture the most beautifully colored pine marten we have seen on property! Soon your own three bears will be old enough to enjoy our favorite local swimming hole, rafting the wild & scenic Flathead and enjoy some terrific Glacier waterfall hikes that are just perfect for kids. Thank you for being such wonderful guests, we hope to see you and your family back at 3BB building more life-long memories.
