Hiker's Rest: A Relaxing Retreat 5 miles from Glacier National Park

Nestled in the hills and forest surrounding West Glacier, Montana, this log frame studio apartment is the perfect place for parties of two to relax after a day of hiking and exploring in Glacier National Park and the beautiful Flathead Valley. It is located at the end of the road for ultimate relaxation away from the crowds in and outside the park.

The studio is situated above a detached garage and is accessed via a private parking area and private entrance. There is a covered porch featuring two rocking chairs and a table - the perfect spot for enjoying your morning coffee. The living space offers a kitchen area with refrigerator; convection toaster oven that features bake, grill, and air fry functions; microwave; double-burner infrared cooktop; toaster; and a Keurig coffee machine. The unique live edge countertop holds a single basin, but a separate wash basin for dishes is also available for use. A small table and chairs is also provided for dining or playing games.

The studio has a queen size bed with memory foam mattress and seating area with a large television. Wifi is provided, allowing access to Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video, etc.

The bathroom houses a full shower and toilet with plenty of shelving to hold all your personal items.

In addition to the private porch at the entrance, this studio features a Juliette balcony that overlooks the main driveway and an enclosed garden area where chickens roam, fresh fruits and vegetables grow among the flowers, and honeybee hives house our valuable pollinators. Our guests are welcome to help themselves to the garden's fruits and vegetables and to farm fresh eggs. Also seen from the balcony are the surrounding woods and the Belton Mountains, just inside Glacier National Park.

We are located within walking distance of Lake Five and less than 5 miles to the west entrance of Glacier National Park. The outdoor recreation opportunities are endless in our neck of the woods, from river rafting, hiking, rock climbing, star gazing, bike riding, swimming, and fly fishing, to exploring The Crown of the Continent: Glacier National Park. There are a number of golf courses nearby, and plenty of other opportunities to have fun while visiting West Glacier, Montana.

*Please note: as with most all properties in West Glacier and in close proximity to Glacier National Park, our property is situated nearby to railroad tracks. The railroad is an important and monumental part of the history of our area, and you can expect to hear the trains during your visit. We are separated from the tracks by other properties, and we have never had complaints from any guests about this, but we felt it was important to make potential guests aware of this. We provide fan(s) and portable A/C units that help to drown out the sound of the trains at night - we do not even notice them.

We love it here, and we are sure you will, as well.
