Stunning Cabin Bordering Glacier National Park/Flathead River on 9 Acres!!!

This unique property consists of 9 treed acres along the Middle Fork of the Flathead River which borders Glacier National Park. We are located between West Glacier and East Glacier so there is great access to either entrance of Glacier National Park. Relax on the deck during the day and enjoy a fire pit in the evening. A steeper trail down the hill takes you to the river where there is a large beach area and some fantastic fishing holes.
The amenities of the home consist of a fully equipped kitchen stocked with the basics, fireplace, WIFI , gas BBQ, firepit (firewood provided) outdoor table and lawn chairs. If you're looking for a getaway from the crowds, a convenient place to explore Glacier National Park and a beautiful place to stay, look no further.
We are 24 miles from the West Glacier Park Entrance and 35 miles from the East Glacier Park entrance. Another bonus is that on the other side of our property we look directly into Great Bear Wilderness where there are even more trails to explore!
Brand new for 2024 is AC for the cabin as well as a new King size Sealy mattress!!
Our main home is also on the property and we may be there during your stay or it may be rented. The homes are not within eyesight of each other so you will still have lots of privacy**
We may have a on site host next year who is very familiar with Glacier Park. This will be decided in the spring of 2025 and they will be located behind the main home which will not interfere with your views/privacy etc.

****Minimum age requirement for guests at this home is 21 years of age****

*We recently upgraded to Starlink WIFI. All calls are through WIFI calling as there is no cell service in our area so please make sure your phone is set up for WIFI calling prior to arriving!!!
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

This cabin was perfect! Being "isolated" I was worried that it might be too rustic-So surprised when we opened the door, the cabin is beautiful, modern, CLEAN, (and mouse free-important to me for a "cabin") The location is perfect being about half way between West Glacier entrance and East Glacier. Most traffic goes toward Whitefish, but we went south after leaving the park with hardly any traffic!!! The area around the cabin is perfect for night time camp fires (complete with firewood) and the walk down to your own private view of the river was fabulous!! This property is a winner for VRBO!

This cabin was fantastic! I hate to say to much about this cabin because everyone would want to stay there. It was perfect for our first trip to GNP. The cabin is about halfway between the west gate and the east gate. It sits on a very quiet lot with no neighbors to disturb your peace. We absolutely love it!

Relaxing

Very nice Property! We had the property to ourselves for the time we were there. Fire pit outside was Great. Seen a doe in the back yard! The advertised rope stairs to the Flathead river didn't have rope all the way down to the bottom. It could be dangerous. We went down to see the view but decided to not go back down because we felt it was unsafe with the way it was roped. Overall it was one of the best places we have ever stayed. We would definitely go back !!!

The cabin is impeccably stocked and decorated to create the perfect spot to relax after a long day at the Park or spend the day down by the river behind the property.

Peaceful escape at Glacier

The location is just far enough away from the busy West Glacier area for privacy and quiet, but close enough for a short drive to the West Entrance. It is a great place to wind down. Sue was a wonderful host. She kept in contact to make sure we didn’t need anything. She showed us where to pick wild huckleberries. We didn’t make it all the way down the steps to the river, but took a walk along the edge of the ridge to check it out. Highly recommend Sue and the cabin for a nice couples escape from the tourists and rest from the day of long hikes. The cabin was very well stocked and had everything we needed.

Wonderful spot to enjoy Glacier!

Had a fabulous time at this cabin!! Loved that it was easy to launch into the East or West side of the park. The cabin was extremely well-appointed - kitchen was well set up, and the gas stove and mini split AC kept it comfortable inside no matter what the Montana weather decided to do! I will say that the steps down to the river are an adventure - using hiking poles made me more comfortable. Totally worth the trip though!! Would absolutely stay here again!

Away from it all

This cabin provides great access to Glacier NP (both entrances) as well as peace and quiet. It is a distance from anything substantial so bring your own groceries as there is a lovely kitchen to prepare meals. This is a great getaway and place to unwind. we enjoyed the BBQ, coffee on the patio, and the fun movie selection at night. We did not go down to the river but know this was an amenity. Clean, well equipped and ready for outdoor adventures.

Excellent place to experience glacier park!

The house was under one and a half hours from every entrance in Glacier park. It made it very convenient to access all three entrances to the park, which we did. The house itself was an amazing condition, very clean, very secluded, and had everything we needed for our trip. The owners were very responsive, and very helpful throughout our entire stay. Would definitely recommend 100%.

simply the BEST

If you are visiting Glacier National Park this is an ideal location for the start of your adventures. Located half way between the West and East entrances of the park makes for a great spot for all the hikes and drives. The property is absolutely gorgeous. Situated right on the Middle Branch of the Flathead River with NP land across the river from you gives you peace and tranquility after a day's hike. My husband fly fished every late afternoon/evening with much success. No neighbors, no noise, just the river and trees. The cabin itself is perfect, beautifully furnished, comfy king sized bed, kitchen has everything you need, grill and fire pit for late night s'mores. Sue is very responsive to messages and I could truly tell she wanted to make sure everything was absolutely perfect for our stay. This is our second stay here and we literally booked our trip around the availability of this rental. Thanks again Sue, for sharing this beautiful spot with us. We had a fabulous time.

AMAZING cabin and location to Glacier National Park!!

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful cabin and property. Everything was so clean and the cabin was well stocked with dishes, utensils and cooking supplies. We met Leah (one of the owners) when we first arrived and she gave us lots of great Glacier National Park recommendations. The drive to the park was very easy and beautiful from the cabin! We used the fire pit and grill. The last evening we went down to the river by the cabin and fished and had a picnic! Could not recommend this cabin more!! AMAZING location and beautiful property!

Summer getaway

This cabin was perfect for a reset. It’s in a great location between west and east entrances to Glacier NP, and it was right next to the river for any kayaking/rafting activities and borders the National Forest across the road with more hiking opportunities. The cabin itself was fully stocked/furnished, cozy yet modern, and extremely clean. Sue was easy to get ahold of and extremely kind and hospitable. She happened to be staying in the main cabin on the property while we were there and was so nice to come introduce herself to us and chat with us. She made sure we had everything we needed for this stay! My only complaint was that the cabin doesn’t have air conditioning, but the nights cool off fairly quickly so it wasn’t a big issue by any means!
