Wonderful

Very wonderful house to come back to after a day on the hiking trail. The kitchen was spacious and the windows looking out onto the lake and mountains were spectacular. Whitefish has great restaurants.
We hiked the Logan Pass area and then the snows hit. Got that one in just in the nick of time.
With our getaway, we celebrated my wife's BD, Mother's Day, & our 50th WA, inviting our 2 adult children, our son-in-law, and our 2 preschool grandchildren to celebrate with us. The Cabin at Lake Blanchard is a beautifully located lakeside property, with spacious accommodations, that included plenty of bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, a well-furnished kitchen, & table space for meals and visits. We all enjoyed our week immensely, making pleasurable trips into Glacier NP. We will be talking and dreaming about our experience for a long time!
We loved our stay at your home. The location was perfect and on the quiet lake and so close to downtown Whitefish.
The only possible improvement would be to put some area rugs upstairs. Those downstairs heard every move from upstairs. Those upstairs said they could even hear the master bedroom fan while in bed upstairs.
But even saying this - we loved your home and thank you so much for sharing it with us.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Disappointment lake was unusable
Home beautiful
Location Amazing beautiful setting very peaceful
Only reason for low rating because I expressed in the notes it was my daughters 2nd birthday and all we wanted to do was swim and hangout on the dock, unfortunately they’d didn’t let me know that you couldn’t even see the water due to thousands of Lilly pads, I spent 2 hours out there trying to clean the area up, in our 3 day stay not one of us jumped into the water bc of the amount of Lilly pads
Loved being on the lake in the woods but then so close to Whitefish! Beautiful views of Whitefish mountain. We had a wonderful stay! Would definitely rent again.
We loved our stay at the cabin and along Blanchard Lake! Plenty of room for my family to spread out, relax, and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Very easy to get to downtown and various activities. The house was very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with what we needed to cook.
Great property in perfect location! Close to town but totally serene setting!! Great space everything you need! High end bedding(totally appreciate), we had a friend who loaned us a small boat so we were able to enjoy the lake! Renting Kayaks would be great! Would come back again!!
