The Red Barn-Perfect GNP Base Camp. 5 Star Luxury on the farm. Clean & Comfy.

Enjoy a retreat to nature in our privately owned and managed 2-Bedroom Barn. Plan a romantic getaway or honeymoon, a couples’ adventure with friends, or family trip to Glacier National Park.
Our 2nd story loft features exceptionally high standards for convenience including luxurious Egyptian cotton sheeting, spa robes, a new oversized walk-in shower, and memory-foam, pillowtop mattresses. Furnishings are stylish yet comfortable. Hardwood floors, white marble tile, butcher block countertops and exposed beams create a warm ambiance while the space retains a light and airy atmosphere with plenty of natural light flooding in through large windows.
The open floor plan allows for sweeping views of breathtaking mountains, the surrounding farm land, and a nearby water preserve. The two acre- property is nestled on the corner next to an 800 acre, fourth-generation family farm. The Red Barn is adjacent to our home and is located off a quiet country road. From the large private deck you can enjoy excellent wildlife and bird viewing including large herds of whitetail and mule deer grazing, wild turkeys, geese, and songbirds. Swans and bald eagles frequent the area as well. The farm is also home to an occasional moose, elk, bear, fox, coyote, and mountain lion. The deck is also the best view of the beautiful mountain waterfall in addition to views of the entire Swan Mountain Range and the Badrock Canyon leading to Glacier National Park.
While tucked away next to the farm at the base of the mountain, our location has convenient, easy access to everything the Flathead Valley has to offer. Driving times to local hot spots make this the perfect lodging option:

• 15 minutes to Glacier National Park
• 20 minutes to the resort town of Whitefish
• 20 minutes to Bigfork and Flathead Lake, largest freshwater lake West of the Mississippi
• 20 minutes to the shopping and dining of Kalispell
•10 minutes to Columbia Falls, gateway to Glacier National Park
• 35 minutes to the top of Whitefish Mountain Resort
• 20 minutes to the airport

The Barn sleeps 4 in two bedrooms (1 king bed, 1 queen bed) and is prepared with everything you need including a fully-equipped kitchen with stainless-steel appliances. After a day of hiking and adventure clean up with a full-sized washer and dryer, plush linens, and an over-sized rain shower head. Settle in with a HD flat-screen TV or stream a movie while sitting next to the cozy fireplace. BBQ on the deck or just sit back with a glass of wine and soak in the alpine glow.

Key amenities include:
Large HDTV, DVD player
High-Speed wireless internet throughout home
Fully-equipped kitchen
Large kitchen island with 2-seat breakfast bar
Stainless appliances: refrigerator with filtered water and ice, 4 burner smooth top range and oven, dishwasher

Wow! We can’t begin to express the comfort we felt when we walked in the door for the first time. The red barn has everything you could need, wonderfully decorated and the views are spectacular sunrise to sunset. The location was convenient to get to Glacier National Park. We were blessed to find the perfect place to call home!

The Red Barn was the perfect landing spot for our Montana trip—just as dreamy in person as the photos! The views were breathtaking and exactly the kind we hope to have at our forever home one day. The kitchen was impressively stocked, even more so than most rentals, just like other reviewers mentioned. Everything was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully arranged.I did have a small hiccup with communication right before checkout when I reached out about the keypad and laundry but didn’t hear back. Not a big deal, just a little disappointing after such a wonderful stay.

The red barn was absolutely gorgeous and the amenities were fantastic. They had the best stocked kitchen of any rental we have stayed in. The cleanliness was also top tier (WAY better than other rentals, even the baseboards didn’t have dust & no shower mold was present!). The location to Glacier was great but also the access to Columbia Falls & Kalispell was great. Grocery store was a few minutes away. Also tried the meat from their farm and we highly recommend! Thanks for a great stay!

This is a beautiful property that is a perfect distance from GNP. Even though it is next to the owner's property it still felt extremely private. Our 10 year old loved watching the deer from the deck. Everything you need is provided and the washer and dryer are ideal after a day of hiking. Alyson was easy to communicate with and sent all instructions in a timely fashion.

Cozy Barn Stay

The space was incredibly welcoming with really great decorative touches. It was spotless clean and had all of the amentities needed. The views were awesome too. Super close to West Glacier park entrance and a short drive into town for food and groceries. Loved the guide to Glacier and local hikes, it really helped plan out our days!

Wonderful stay on a beautiful farm!

We had a terrific stay at Alyson's place in Columbia Falls - it was our first visit to Montana, and we fell in love! The location is great for exploring the west side of Glacier - we spent every day in the park, and it was super easy to get to (even early in the morning). Alyson and her family were gracious hosts, and the place was perfectly appointed. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

As close to perfect as it gets

We have stayed at many vacation rentals and this one surpasses them all! The location is absolutely stunning and can't be beat. The views were dreamy and being away from everyone and everything was amazing. Inside the loft or out on the deck, you feel like you're at home. Everything is tastefully decorated in a way that celebrates the area but isn't overdone. The beds are comfortable and pretty much every detail is anticipated. The kitchen is so well stocked which is very appreciated as we prefer to eat most of our meals "in". There are beautiful books about Montana and Glacier NP and we made good use of the guide books to hiking and area activities. A generous basket of kiss's toys kept our little one happy! Alyson was a wonderful hostess. Very communicative when we needed her, and she and her family were friendly with us and our daughter. We enjoyed some fresh eggs and homemade jam from their farm! The only issue we had was a struggle getting the door open on arrival because it needs some jiggling for the lock to latch/unlatch - a warning about that would have been nice but thankfully Alyson was right there to help! We were sad to leave and can't wait to return. When we do, we know exactly where we will stay.

Perfect View

We chose this rental for the view. It was fantastic. The mountains were beautiful, changing throughout the day, every day. The apartment was exceptionally clean and comfortable. There were so many little touches that made our stay a pleasure. It was very quiet despite the close proximity to the owners home. We had fun watching the deer quickly cut through the property like they owned the place. There was a handsome horse next door. Our only regret is we didn’t have a chance to meet Charlie, who seemed like a wonderful dog.

PURE PERFECTION!

Our stay at the Red Barn in August 2023 was nothing short of perfection! From the decor, to the amenities, to the view (we loved the view) and the animals, it was amazing! We stayed for a week and there was nothing better to come back to after a long day of hiking and exploring than the beautiful mountains, the chickens, the horses, the deer, and the absolute serenity. We couldn't wait to get back to the barn and sit out on the deck each night. No need to watch TV, in fact, we never turned it on. You will NOT be disappointed with the Red Barn!!

My family and I had an amazing stay at The Red Barn. The home was located at the bottom of the mountains with a beautiful view from the back deck. Property is located in between Kalispell, Whitefish and Columbia Falls with easy access to all including Glacier National Park. The home was so well thought out down to the relaxing pillow spray next to the bed! We ordered fresh sausage, eggs and honey for breakfast and felt right at home. So glad we stayed there and would highly recommend. Just perfect!
