This unique property consists 9 treed acres along the Middle Fork of the Flathead River which borders Glacier National Park. We are located between West Glacier and East Glacier so there is great access to either entrance of Glacier National Park. Relax on the deck and listen to the river, watch the rafters go by or gaze into Glacier National Park during the day and enjoy a firepit in the evening. A trail (many stairs) down the hill takes you to the river where there is a large rock beacharea and some fantastic fishing holes.
The amenities of the home consist of a fully equipped kitchen stocked with the basics, fireplace, WIFI (please read below), gas BBQ, firepit (firewood provided) picnic table and lawn chairs. Both bedrooms, loft and one full bath are located on the second floor and there is another full bath on the main floor. You will enjoy your down time with rustic log beds, new Sealy mattresses, leather living room furniture, a large dining area and a kitchen with all the comforts of home. If you're looking for a getaway from the crowds, a convenient place to explore Glacier National Park and a beautiful place to stay, look no further.
We are 24 miles from the West Glacier Park Entrance and 35 miles from the East Glacier Park entrance. Another bonus is that on the other side of our property we look directly into Great Bear Wilderness where there are even more trails to explore!
There is a small one bedroom cabin on the property that may be occupied during your stay. The cabins are not within eyesight of each other so there is ample privacy.
We may have a on site host next year who is very familiar with Glacier Park. This will be decided in the spring of 2025 and they will be located behind the main home which will not interfere with your views/privacy etc.

****Minimum age requirement for guests at this home is 16 years of age. Please contact owner if you have younger children as this home may not be suitable****

******We recently upgraded to Starlink WIFI. While speeds can be incredible it can also slow down during high use times and if multiple people are using the internet so please be aware. All calls are through WIFI calling as there is no cell service in our area so please make sure your phone is set up for WIFI calling prior to arriving!!!***

    The property is even more beautiful in person than it is in the pictures. The host was lovely and responded to our messages so quickly! The house was very well stocked — we never needed any extra toilet paper/paper towels/seasonings. It was painful to leave such an amazing place! We would stay here over and over again!

    Sue was very helpful in letting us know about the passes we would need to access the park well ahead of our arrival and other tid bits to make our stay more enjoyable. The cabin was excellent and was a great place to stay.

    The house was wonderful place for a basecamp during our stay at Glacier. The house had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. It was perfect accommodations for two couples. There was a full can of bear spray at the house and we bought and left another can for future guest. Enjoyed setting in the living room looking out the huge windows while sipping coffee each morning. Loved our stay.

    This property was perfectly represented and well stocked with all provisions needed, not once during our 2 week stay did we need anything other than food & beverages.

    We’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO properties and this one likely ranks as our favorite. The house is both both beautiful and cozy, all amenities you could think of are included, the location is wonderful between both park entrances, the property is peaceful, and communication with Sue is excellent. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again for a trip to Glacier National Park and the surrounding area.

    This is a beautiful cabin and located perfectly to visit both the west and east side of GNP. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed! We often rent cabins and this is definitely one of the best we have stayed at!!! The owners have done an amazing job to make sure there guests feel welcomed!

    This was an amazing location perfectly situated between West Glacier and East Glacier! We were greeted during our first meal by a large deer outside the beautiful windows. We were torn each day because we wanted to stay and enjoy the beautiful house. We saw a mother goat and her two kids at Goat Lick. If you want to enjoy luxury, and peace and quiet- this is your place.

    Amazing week at this cabin along the Flathead River only 20 min from west glacier entrance. All the amenities you could ever dream of in a perfect forested setting. Will definitely stay here again next time we are back at this way!! Highly recommend. Best VRBO rental experience we have had!

    This home was nothing short of incredible! The property is amazing and the house was spectacular. It was stocked with all the supplies you could ever need. Sue was wonderful! She was very responsive and hospitable. The house is situated between east and west glacier entrances. Unfortunately for us, East Glacier was closed due to the current circumstances but we went into the West Glacier Entrance ever day. A short 20 minute drive to the gate. We also enjoyed the river down the steep stairs everyday. It is a trek but it’s worth it! Thank you Sue for a wonderful stay!
