Wonderful place near glacier national park. 20 minutes from the west entrance, 35 minutes from lake McDonald lodge. 2.5 hours from the east entrance with a scenic drive. Bathroom was very clean. Gas grill was super helpful for toasting bagels in the morning and steaks for dinner. Great place and the host was very responsive.
