Main reason for a 4 star is due to the mattresses. They tend to sink in the middle. Everything else was fine.

Privacy plus at this house

The house worked well for our group of four people. The kitchen was stocked very well for meal prep with plenty of pots, pans, dishes… for us. The property was about 10 minute drive to the main Apgar entrance to GNP. We had a good impression of the property and location.

Amazing getaway

The house is back a gravel road surrounded by trees and nature. There are other houses around but it still feels as though you are secluded. The house was perfect for our family of four and the kids enjoyed the swings and rope outside. Glacier National Park is not far at all from the house and easy to get to. Doyle was an amazing host and would absolutely stay in the house again!

They stay here was fantastic!! We had a great time and enjoy taking walks around the area and swinging on the swings in the yard. The proximity to Glacier National Parks West Entrance was great and we truly enjoyed our time there. The host, Doyle, was great and extremely helpful.

Glacier Base Camp

Jaybirds was a great place for our family. It was close to Glacier and other sights. The house had everything we needed and then some. It was obvious that the owners went out of their way to have everything one would need: the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook, there were extra towels, blankets and pillows amd much more! We enjoyed exploring the property - the kids loved playing in the creek- and staying in rural Montana! We would highly recommend!

Beautiful spot close to Glacier

We had a little hiccup in the beginning just because I didn’t receive an email about how to access the property but when I inquired about it, Doyle responded quickly. The house is very nicely set up with all the amenities you need. We did have problems with the TV but we were on vacation in a beautiful place so we decided to enjoy nature instead of the TV. The beds we’re comfortable and the home was very clean.

Lovely house in the woods/great access to Glacier National Park

We stayed at Jaybirds cabin for a 6 day trip to Glacier National Park. The house was perfect for our family of 4 with college age kids. Clean, quiet and well appointed- within 20 minutes of the West entrance. We loved hanging out at the back patio table and listening to the birds. Very happy and would stay here again when we return.
