Quiet Countryside...but just a few minutes from town!!

We have lived in East Glacier Park since 1993, where we raised our two children and have loved being part of this incredibly special community. I was raised "all over" as a Navy Brat (but came to Montana for college in 1983 and finally found my true home) and Pat is a born-and-raised Anaconda, Montana boy. We fell in love with Glacier National Park when we both began working as summer seasonal Park Rangers in 1986, after we graduated from Western Montana College. I worked in the Park for 10 seasons, and the summer of 2026 will mark Pat's 40th year as a Glacier National Park Ranger Naturalist! Pat wrote a book with stories about life as a Park Ranger called "Seasonal Disorder" that has delighted many-a-visitor, so let us know if you'd like to get a copy when you visit and he can personally autograph it for you! (You can buy from us directly or pick up a copy from the Glacier Park Trading Co. general store in town.) Pat is a teacher in the non-summer months and I have done a bit of this and that over the years, including restaurant and motel owner/operator, janitor, elder-care and animal (both domestic and wild!) rescue and fostering. We love being able to provide this vacation home to give others the chance to discover and enjoy this incredibly special place.

When friends offered to sell us this cute place, we were so excited and jumped at the chance! We had always wanted to get a "place in the country," and this location, being just a few minutes outside of town, was ideal. It's quiet and scenic, but so close for running in to the store or to hang out with friends at the counter of the Two Medicine Grill (my favorite past-time!) Our property sits right on the edge of wild, undeveloped lands so there's a chance of seeing any of the area's endemic wildlife passing through the property. (Grizzly Bears, Black Bears, Wolves, Mountain Lions, Lynx, Bobcats, and Moose have all been seen from the house!) The marvelous views of the mountains sweeping onto the prairie exhibit exactly why Montana is known as "Big Sky Country."

Everyone says they love how peaceful and quiet it is out here, but love the fact that they can get in their car and be in town within a few minutes. People appreciate its location in relation to the two main park entrances and its proximity to the Two Medicine Valley.
