The home was beautiful and comfortable for our group that included four related families (8 people). The host provided excellent recommendations and information about the area and thoughtful basket of snacks. The home was well equipped and included everything we needed to prepare meals. The home is an easy 20 minute drive to the west entrance of Glacier NP.

Luxury vacation home with giant yard and mountain view

The house is beautiful and well above most vacation rentals. The property gives a true vacation feel with mountain back drop and huge yard and open area for wildlife to wander by. The basement bedroom is a log cabin feel but very loud knocking noise from the water pipes above made it hard to sleep.

Beautiful home

Our family recently stayed in this beautiful home. The home was spacious and great for our family. We had ages from 90 to 11 years old. The kids loved the gameroom in the basement. The location was perfect for visiting Glacier National Park, Whitefish and Kalispell. The kitchen was well equipped so it made our meal time prep a breeze. The attention to the small details made our stay perfect.

A Hidden Gem Near Glacier National Park. We had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful home nestled just minutes from the Lake McDonald area of Glacier National Park. The location couldn’t be more perfect—easy access to hiking trails, scenic drives, and the home itself made every day an adventure.The house is stunning, with thoughtful touches throughout. The kitchen is impressively well-equipped, making it a joy to cook meals after long days exploring. One of the most magical parts of our stay was the wildlife. We spotted white-tail deer grazing on the lawn in the mornings as well as the evenings and a field with elk 5 miles down the road. It truly felt like we were immersed in nature without sacrificing comfort.If you're looking for a peaceful retreat with all the amenities and a front-row seat to Montana’s natural beauty, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful Retreat

Our family of 8 easily felt at home in this house. The kitchen and living room are open for gatherings and discussions while making meals. Huge open basement with a ping pong table, which was fun! Working with the property manager was easy, efficient, and flexible. I highly recommend this property if you plan to visit Columbia Falls, Kalispell, or even Whitefish, as it’s only a 15 minute drive.

Beautiful Home

Great stay at this beautiful house. The property was incredible, with amazing mountain views. Deer visited us in the yard numerous times during our 6 day stay. The owner quickly responded when we asked a question. The welcome basket was a nice treat. She even had bear spray available for us to use, (luckily we did not need). The bedroom set up was really nice, though the bathroom shower off the laundry room is very tiny (like a cruise ship), making it a little difficult for some to shower.

Beautiful View & Home

After a fun-filled day of exploring GNP, we thoroughly enjoyed sitting outside looking at the mountains. The home was lovely with plenty of living space for a group of 7. The host was very responsive and helpful. We definitely enjoyed the goodies provided. Nice touch. Although Montana is a LOT cooler than Mississippi, the home did get too warm at times. Overall, we loved our stayed and would stay again if the opportunity arises for another trip to Montana.

Epic Annual National Park Adventure near Glacier

We had an exceptional experience that exceeded our expectations at this lovely home. Not only was it the perfect location for all of our planned explorations in our beautiful surroundings, the accommodations were well-appointed and truly felt like a home away from home. Every detail of our stay was thoughtfully arranged by the owner and property manager (even items like a cooler, icepacks and Bear Spray were available for us to borrow) , making our time there comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying the comforts of home. We stay in a VRBO rental for our family annual trips and this home was the best we have ever stayed in! After our long days in the park, we loved coming back to our home base. We would definitely stay again in the future.

From the moment we walked in we all knew we’d be happy in this home for the week. It comes with everything you need to live in beautiful Columbia Falls. It’s located conveniently to Glacier, DT Columbia Falls, FCA (Kalispell Airport), and with 30 minutes of Kalispell shopping area. The place was super clean and efficiently laid out. Everything you need is there and more. The host is so kind and accommodating. Very responsive. Once we got food we had a perfect base camp for Glacier National Park. So many great memories made. Come with your family and enjoy Montana living. Make sure you go to the Brash Rodeo on Thursday nights during the summer. It felt like the whole town was there.

Excellent property. House is beautiful. Location is really good. 10 mins to Whitefish. Around 15-20 to Kalispell. Multiple grocery stores close by. Easy to get wherever you need to go. Scenery is great no matter where you drive. Backyard is great. Nice sitting area and it is big enough for kids to play. Inside house is really nice. Furniture is comfortable and well kept. Beds slept great. Finished basement was comfortable and had a nice sectional. Really nice property overall and would stay there again.
