The Montana Retreat - Gateway to Glacier National Park

This property was excellent in every way! The kitchen had everything you could possibly want and need. It was very clean, the views were great. I enjoyed drinking my coffee in comfy chairs while looking at the scenery around us. The bedrooms were of good size and the beds were pretty comfy to sleep on! The owner of the property is a fantastic communicator. He answered any question I had by email almost immediately if not then an hour or so later. We would definitely stay again. It was perfect for us three ladies!

Perfect for a four-person golf trip. Well equipped kitchen, plenty of amenities. Host was very responsive.

We stayed here to visit Glacier National Park. The park entrance is less than an hour away. As stated in other listings, the house and most of the contents are older, but clean. We did not use the outside area. The portable/standing air conditioning unit in the upstairs TV room and the couple other fans provided do struggle to maintain a comfortable temperature. Overall though it was a decent place to stay during our 4-day stay in Kalispell.

The place had all the comforts of home, clean and comfortable. Glacier was amazing and visited the national bison range which was so worth it!

We stayed 4 nights (20-24 Sept) and enjoyed our stay. The VRBO is about 45 minutes from the west entrance of glacier national Park but had great choices for dinning options. It was very well stocked with supplies and necessities, including bear spray.. Would definitely recommend this place for your glacier outing.

The house was clean, lots of extras, in a quiet neighborhood, overall a great place to stay. Just far enough out of town to not be busy but only a few minutes from shopping and restaurants.

We had a great experience at The Montana Retreat. The host was communicative and the rooms were nice. The house was stocked with supplies and some food that others left which was nice. Plus there was bear spray there. The back deck was very nice. We spent many evenings on the deck. The house is at a good location to go to Glacier and other parks in the area. My only downside was there was no whole house AC since I'm a warm person, but we made it work with opening the windows at night and there was also a portable AC unit. We would definitely recommend the place and would come back if in the area again.

We had a very nice stay even though we did not spend too much time in the house. We were always on the go. The house was a little older but was very clean. It was decorated nicely. Especially loved the sheets. lol At night we were able to see the stars so clearly. We even saw a few shooting stars. That was really cool. Even though we had a very nice stay, there was a few negatives. The downstairs shower was horrible since you could not adjust how close or far away you would want the water to flow. It was so far that you had to push your head back to not get hit. I had to shut off the water in order to not have the soap wash off the washcloth. There was plenty of space in the room itself but not enough storage for your toiletries. We had to space our showers due to the hot water not lasting as long as we hoped. The grounds were not kept up. Overgrown grass all around. The area where you see pictures of a sitting area outside was covered in debris. and clutter. Some to those chairs were knocked on its side. It was not a place I would want to hang out even if we had a chance. It would be wonderful if you had lights on the side of the driveway. It was very dark and hard to see the house. Even with lights on the porch. My husband said the owners were very nice and easy to work with during our stay. All in all we enjoyed our stay.

We had a nice stay with plenty of space and items stocked for cooking. We did notice earwigs and gnats in the house which were annoying. The house was also very hot when we got there and it took a lot of fans use and coving up windows to help mitigate this. The basement rooms were more temperate. The location worked out great for our needs.

Relatively short drive to Glacier national Park, local restaurants and grocery store. Full size washer and dryer was helpful after being on the road for a week and hiking a lot. Great communication with owner. Excellent views of the sun rising.

This was a great house for our family of 4. It was clean, and felt like home. Defiantly recommend this place.
