Experience the serenity and beauty of the wilderness at Red Meadow Lodge, where adventure and relaxation await.

The large master suite features a king-sized bed and a hide-a-bed couch, complete with stunning views of Glacier Park.

The Twin Room is designed with the kids in mind, with two twin black iron beds along with children’s books and toys.

True Wilderness Adventure

Getting to Red Meadow Lodge isn't easy, but that's what makes this remote location so special. The cabin is unique and gorgeous. The property and views are stunning. We were able to catch fish right in the backyard!

Great stay on the beautiful North Fork

This is a fabulous location overlooking GNP and the North Fork of the Flathead river. Gorgeous, peaceful views everywhere on the property. The house has everything you need and has a comfortable, cozy, and 'wilderness' vibe you won't find in many places. Stock up on groceries beforehand though, as the Polebridge Mercantile has limited selection and its an hour drive to Columbia Falls/West Glacier

Time to unplug

Take the road less traveled and away from the crowds. This place has breathtaking views right from your bedroom window. Morning coffee while overlooking the river and wilderness all around. Loved it and made some lifelong memories.

Beautiful

Amazing location if you are looking to get away from the rat race of everyday life. Being off grid it might not be for everyone, but for those that are looking for peace and solitude it is amazing. We enjoyed the outside deck and listening to the stream in the distance. Kitchen is well stocked. We were there during the hottest part of the year and the wall AC unit was very nice to cool down the upstairs. We would definitely stay again!

Perfect

Red Meadow Lodge was a perfect experience. We wanted experience Montana life in a rural setting and this delivered. The house was better than described and the views were stunning. Zero complaints. The Polebridge / North Fork community was welcoming as well. And once construction is completed on the Inside North Fork road the Polebridge entrance to GNP will be perfect. We will stay here again and highly recommend. Thanks to the owners and staff for a terrific stay.

Perfect Spot Off Grid

Our family had an incredible stay at Red Meadow Lodge. The river access was great to have and you are 10 minutes from the Polebridge Park entrance. Well appointed lodge with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Check with the host to see what is needed as we left many extras behind (dish soap, laundry detergent, shampoo, etc). Host and owner are extremely friendly and helpful. Stop up at Polebridge and rent your watercraft to use on the river. We are already planning our next visit.

Polebridge, Montana

Our stay at this secluded cabin near Glacier National Park was nothing short of magical. Tucked away in a quiet, forested area along the North Fork of the Flathead River, the cabin provided the perfect off-the-grid retreat without sacrificing comfort. From the moment we arrived, the rustic charm and warm, welcoming atmosphere of the cabin made us feel right at home. It was well-equipped with all the essentials, plus thoughtful touches like a wood-burning stove and an extensive collection of local guidebooks, books, and maps. The cabin's location was ideal for exploring the breathtaking scenery of Glacier National Park. One morning, we spotted a mountain lion on the trail that leads down to the river—a truly memorable sighting. We have stayed in many rental houses, some of them more modern and comfortable, but this one is unique because it has a soul, which is so rare!

This is how you get away

I only have positive things to say about the Red Meadow Lodge and Karina the property manager. I went there with my wife and three teenage sons. For those of you with kids, you know that getting away from devices is difficult to do. But this property gives you a chance. No TV, which was great. The Starlink internet is there and works well, but we only used it for figuring out activities for that day and I believe they will turn it off if that's your preference. Loved that it sat on the north fork of the flathead....we brought inner tubes and floated down to Polebridge (about an hour and a half float with late July water levels). We loved sitting in the chairs overlooking the river and the GNP mountains in the distance. We loved that we were close to the North Fork section of the park. I highly recommend a late evening visit to either Bowman or Kintla Lake...very few people there in the evening. And as mentioned, Karina was super responsive to all the questions we asked....even those that were already covered in the property user guide. Again, five stars and I would definitely stay there again.

We absolutely loved our stay at Red Meadow Lodge and the Polebridge area! Simply put, the Red Meadow Lodge was good for the soul. It was rich in character and everything we were hoping for in a Montana cabin. It was clean, comfortable, unbelievably well-stocked, and the views were ones we will remember for a lifetime. The host was outstanding as well, always quick to answer all of my questions. Now if only we can find our way back again someday!
