NO PETS! Sorry, absolutely no dogs or pets of any kind allowed on our property at anytime. There are many wild animals here and there is no fenced yard. If you bring a pet you will be asked to leave, so please do not put us in that position! Thank you so much!
Absolutely perfect - better than pictures- would definitely book again.
We had another amazing stay at sunset cabin. The upgrades made since our previous stay made it even more enjoyable and the property manager was wonderful. Hope to stay again!
There is no place on earth like Flathead Lake. The home we were fortunate enough to get was not only beautiful, but the welcome from the property manager and shine of the housekeeping staff was beyond anything we expected. We loved every minute of our stay!
We have been coming to Flathead for many years and this is the first time we have stayed here. This home was everything we hoped for. The location is spectacular, and the accommodations were great for our group. We are already looking forward to next summer!!
wonderful place.
First off, Manager Melissa was excellent. The place does have a lot of personal items, so, take some pictures if you move anything so you can get them back where they belong. We had an issue with a missing teddy bear but it was found put away so my grandchildren didn't mix it up with their teddy bears. Also, when getting there make sure to walk the property. It's beautiful location also creates animal situations. On the last night, we found bat feces at the corner of the house. We found a bat (the morning checking out) stuck in the inside of the screen door and had it tested (inconclusive). If you or your guests need to work on the internet, it is very slow. However, living remotely, you can't expect much else. The house does need some TLC in a few spots, the ice maker didn't work, but as Melissa explained, there is such a shortage of labor in Flathead, they were having problems hiring repair workers. Overall, it is a beautiful location for a family get together.
This was our 4th stay at this property. We love everything about it....the size of the home and adjacent guest cabin is perfect to house our family. The family enjoys all the water sports, plus activities at nearby Glacier National Park. The home is spotless upon arrival, and the property managers, Melissa and Steve respond within minutes to any questions or help we might need. The decks and dock are great gathering places to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the lake. Our family has been vacationing at Flathead Lake for over 50 years.
We just completed our first stay at this beautiful property. We spent two weeks and couldn't have had more fun. It is the perfect place for small to medium gathering. We celebrated our 25th anniversary and numerous other milestones and birthdays. The accommodations are great with a very unique western theme. The big deck was a great place to hang out and watch sunsets. We were there over the 4th and could see countless tiny firework shows across the lake and there were several others nearby. It was very cool! The water was very cold but everyone of us got used to it by the end of the stay. The grandchildren got used to it by the end of the first day. We spent countless hours tubing and laughing at the spills. The house is great, we loved it. We did have two minor issues that Melissa had fixed very quickly. Issues in a house happen, get over it. All in all, I give this property at least 5 stars and we will be back next year.
We recently spent a week on this property and it was everything you could ask for. We kayaked, paddle boarded, fished off the dock and the kids spent hours playing in the yard. It is a beautiful, peaceful setting and our family enjoyed every minute of our time there. We didn't want to leave and hope to stay in this cabin again in the future. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful cabin!
We enjoyed our stay…it’s Flathead Lake, how could you not. With that said- this place is all about its location. It is very dated and the online pictures need updated for sure. There are lots of personal family items there too. Doesn’t feel relaxing. No hot tub like in the pics and the dock is in need of major repair. Three of us went through the loose boards. There’s no rope swing off it either- kids were super bummed. The people are very nice to deal with though.
