Great place overall - big kitchen, lots of space, very convenient to everything downtown. We've stayed in this same complex twice now and would highly recommend. The only complaint for us was the front door lock. Very difficult and time consuming coming and going. Should be an easy fix.

Beautiful, spacious, well located apartment

My family of four stayed at the Wild Mile for four nights. It was the perfect respite midway through our 16-day road trip. The apartment is on the first floor of a mixed-use two story building with approximately 16 units. It is beautifully and comfortably furnished. The deck backs up to the Swan River and the sound of the rushing river was incredible. We could catch glimpses of the river through the foliage. The location was perfect to walk for coffee, dinner, shopping on Electric Avenue (Main Street of downtown), and hiking along the river. It is also well located to access Lake Flathead, state parks, and the west entrance to Glacier National Park. It was a bit difficult to find based on the email instructions but once we called the property manager, she easily directed us.

Once we found the condo, things were terrific

Check in was at 4pm and we arrived at 3:33. We text the owner, stating that we had arrived and that we could not locate the property. We did not hear back from the owner until 8pm. Fortunately, the property location finally opened up on the VRBO site and we could see what # the property was. Check in was extremely difficult but overall, we had a great stay.

Love Bigfork

The apartment was great and decorated amazingly. Kitchen was fully furnished and not a need for anything. The location is great and the bakery/coffee shop next door was so good. Huckleberry sweet rolls. Bigfork theatre in the evening and close to Glacier. We will be back.

Overall good

A nice property, we enjoyed staying there. It's in a great location and you can walk into Bigfork. At night there is live music going on right outside the property but once inside we didn't hear it at all. The only noise is from the property upstairs - you can hear them walking and talking up there. I was disappointed with the communication from the property manager. We also had to go to the store for toilet paper, there was only one roll. But, a nice property, nice location, very cute. Amy Osborne

Too office feeling and can’t see river

This property is very unique however for the price I would of liked to been able to see the river. The condo still feels like an office and the leftover food in the pantry and cabinets was not appealing.
