Wonderful option when visiting Glacier Nat'l Park

We stayed in the Paddle Ridge Lodge upstairs room. The room was very large. 2 double beds. Big Bathroom. There is a gorgeous outdoor balcony/patio area directly out of the room. The lodge has a beautiful spacious lobby area with tables and a sofa. I loved the property. Very close to the West Entrance of Glacier Nat'l Park. Close to lots of restaurants. My only complaint would be house keeping.

One major fail is no blackout curtains in the bedroom. It was a basic diffuser that let lots of light in.
