Stony Broke Ranch private retreat, eight miles from Glacier

The house is immaculate. Clean and very well appointed. Melissa is very generous from eggs in the fridge to popcorn in the pantry. Everything is labeled and easy to find. The house has many scented candles, soaps and fabric softeners. If this is a problem for anyone in your group it may not be the right rental for you or you may want to contact Melissa before you book. It is a beautiful home in a beautiful area near Glacier National Park.

Beautiful home and property only 8 miles to Glacier National Park. Very well furnished and organized too! We enjoyed sitting in the hot tub or around the fire pit after a long day of exploring and hiking.

This house was our last stop of three rentals, by far was our favorite. 5 Stars across the board! The property owners were attentive in their communication. I would highly recommend this property; it is tucked away and private. Peaceful at night and the Montana sky full of stars! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with travelers!

Our group of 4 adults stayed 5 nights in September 2025. If you're planning a trip to the Glacier National park area and want a secluded location with comfortable amenities close to the park - this is perfect! The pictures don't do the property justice. The rooms and spaces are bigger than the pictures make it seem. The house was the best equipped we have stayed in - it had everything including coolers for trips in to the park. The property is down a well-kept gravel driveway, secluded from neighbors. You'll get to see neighboring horses on your drive in and out of the property. The beds were so comfortable! The kitchen had more than you would need during your stay including bathrobes and even some boots! Every time we thought - I wonder if they have any.... - they did! High end appliances. The two king bedrooms were on opposite ends of the house across the living area from each other which was perfect for our trip with two couples. Melissa was quick to respond to questions and was able to help when I messed up on our check out date. The property is quiet and secluded - but still within 20 minutes of restaurants and the park. I do hope we get to stay here again!

I booked this home for my in-laws for their anniversary trip and it did not disappoint. They said it was the best place they had ever stayed and loved how peaceful it was.

Incredibly beautiful home! It was a total pleasure to stay there. The attention given to this beautiful home is exceptional.

The house is wonderful. It is literally a 15 minute drive from Glacier National Park. The two bedrooms and bathrooms are on opposite ends of the house and there is a great room in the middle. Our host was magnificent. The house was impeccably clean. There were plenty of spices and cooking essentials; she even made me a special blend of herbs which I cherished. The hot tub is great with lots of bubbles. The fire pit comes pre-stocked with logs and kindling. We had a problem with the Internet when we were there and it was literally fixed within the hour. Also an important tip: There is no need to drive down to Kalispell to pick up good groceries, meats, and vegetables. Instead, there is a Super 1 Food Store in Columbia Falls on the way from the Airport to this location. You can stock up on everything there and save yourself a round trip to downtown Kalispell. Highly recommend this house!

Everything was beautiful and super clean. All the cabinets and drawers were marked with what was inside! I can’t say enough about how great it was and Melissa and Beau were wonderful owners!!

This was the perfect Glacier home away from home and exceeded our expectations. The hosts were very thoughtful of all the little details. We highly recommend staying at the Stony Broke Ranch.

This property was better than expected. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything that we needed. The property was beautifully maintained. They even had a jacuzzi that we used during the stay. I would definitely recommend and stay here again.

In one word, PERFECT!

Everything was superb. The home was beautiful, and the location unbeatable. Unlike most VRBO’s I’ve stayed at, this home felt loved and not sterile. Melissa thought of everything with lots of little perks that make it feel just like home. Only 14 minutes to West Glacier entrance. Hosts communicated whenever needed. Thank you Melissa and Beau!

Absolutely the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. Very private and peaceful. Completely stocked with everything you could possibly need. Highly recommended this beautiful house.

We stayed with our family of 4 here for 5 nights. The property and homeowner exceeded our expectations. Great location. Lots of deer on the property. High end finishes in the home and everything you need is at your fingertips.

Our family had a great stay. The property was equipped with everything we needed for our stay. It is a quiet setting and a great home base for adventures around the area.

We had the ultimate time staying at this home! Literally everything has been thought about and carefully labeled and articulated to make your stay just as comfortable as being at home! The house is impeccably clean and oh so cozy and the views are amazing! Melissa is the ultimate host and we will definitely be back!

This house is absolutely perfect to access the west side of Glacier. I had several questions about the property and surrounding areas and Melissa was quick to respond with very helpful information. Communication prior to and during the trip was amazing! The cleanliness of the property was immaculate and the amenities provided made our trip even better!

We loved our stay! AGreat location combined with the feeling of peace and quiet. Highly recommend!

Beautiful property! Highly recommend.

We loved our five nights at Stony Broke Ranch. The house is gorgeous and situated in a very serene setting. The host has thought of everything to make the stay comfortable and effortless, with heavenly beds, a well equipped kitchen, and cozy seating in the living room. And everything is spotlessly clean. We really enjoyed the views of the mountains, trees, and the horses on the ranch, along with all the deer that came by. Our thanks to the host.

This is truly a spectacular home! Melissa has thought of everything - making her home feel like home! The gorgeous living room with amazing views of the ranch and mountains. The kitchen is stocked with anything you need to cook. The beds, bedding and pillows are extremely high quality. Loved coming home after a long day adventuring in Glacier to relax in the front yard with breathtaking views of the ranch and mountains. This far exceeded our expectations and we cannot wait to come back!!

I stay at vbro often and this place was amazing! Everything you need for a perfect get away! To me beds are important, and the mattresses were better than mine!!! The online description doesn’t do The property justice, it’s better than that. Book it, you’ll be glad you did

We stayed for 7 days with our son and daughter in law to hike GNP --- Melissa, Beau and Family were so friendly and communicating with them was so easy. Their home is absolutely AMAZING!! it was so clean, well laid out and stocked with everything we needed. It's so incredibly beautiful!! All cabinets are marked so you are not searching for what you are looking for. The tall windows in the living room are awesome as you can watch the night sky with all the bright stars. Thank you for letting us love on your horses!! We were so sad to leave but we will definitely be back to stay at your beautiful home again. Melissa and Robert Ripkey - Plainfield IL

We were blown away by Melissa‘s attention to detail in her beautiful home. She really has thought of everything from labels on the drawers to bear spray to Bluetooth speakers this place has it all! It is sparkling, clean and very well appointed. We really enjoyed the hot tub after a day of hiking in this private oasis. In short, this has been the absolute best experience we’ve ever had in a VRBO!

Our stay at this custom home in West Glacier was absolutely incredible! Every detail was carefully thought out, and everything we could possibly need was readily available and easy to find. Melissa truly doesn’t skip a beat in ensuring her guests have everything they need for a perfect stay. The home is beautifully decorated with a flawless layout, and the location was so perfect to access the West Glacier entrance. The bathroom products were a great touch, and the beds were so very comfortable. We also loved the gas grill and had a blast soaking in the hot tub while stargazing. My husband described the home as 'baller,' and we definitely loved every bit of our stay. We’d recommend it to anyone and can’t wait to return. Thanks for having us!

You never quite know with these things, but Melissa's place was as exactly as awesome as the photos online. It's tucked at the back of the property very close to the family's house, but screened by trees in such a way that the proximity was a positive rather than a negative. A few days into our stay, we ran out of ice and they were kind enough to walk some over for us! We had the opportunity to meet several family members and 2 of the dogs and everyone was incredibly hospitable and really nice to talk to. Melissa was responsive throughout the entire process and made everything about as easy as it could possibly be. So not only was the house beautiful, but so proximate to all the things. It was maybe 10 minutes from the West Glacier park entrance and within ~30 minutes of Columbia Falls, Kalispell, and even Whitefish. There's so much to see and do and it's all so close by. At night, we loved sitting on the porch with a drink and staring at the sky before going to bed. I can't say enough nice things. Really.

The property was extremely well maintained. We enjoyed the spa, grill, gourmet kitchen, and ease of access to glacier. Kids had a fantastic time. It was everything we wanted and more.

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin was very clean and the host provided many extras such as bear spray and coolers. Everything is organized and labeled. The views from the property are beautiful and we watched deer every morning. Highly recommend this property!

Melissa and Beau’s property is so stunning. Tucked away on a quiet piece of land you are surrounded by natural beauty. The garden is lovely and you can watch the sun rise and set and it is just stunning and so peaceful. In 15 minutes you are at the entrance to the park. We loved the location and setting. But the house inside is the real winner. Beautifully appointed. Unbelievably well stocked this home had everything we could have asked for on this trip. We prepared most of our meals here. Enjoyed the grill and hot tub. Loved the large windows in the family room allowing us to enjoy nature even when we were inside. Melissa and Beau were wonderful to work with and very responsive. We could not recommend a Vrbo more enthusiastically than this property.

This house is AWESOME!!! The hosts have made this house a snuggle in and be comfortable and feel welcome home . I cant say enough about how warm, welcoming, and stocked with all kinds of helpful little items. My husband and I truly enjoyed staying here.

On vacation with friends to Glacier National Park. We chose this cabin due to proximity to the park, but we were blown away by the cleanliness, organization, and overall beauty of the cabin and property. We were made to feel very welcome when we checked in by the amenities provided by the hosts. My friends and I were so impressed by the cabin that we purchased some of the products used for our own homes. Highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking to visit GNP…you won’t be disappointed!
