The nearness to Glacier National Park was terrific. We were in the park within 5 minutes. The park is amazing. WE only spent one day in the park; we could have spent more days there. The resort is nice. Very quiet and clean. Check in was excellent. Not much around the hotel for restaurants but we made do for a night.

It is a wonderful property. We stayed in the beautiful lodge with a great room downstairs and 12 rooms upstairs and downstairs. Our room was spacious with a door to a deck. The staff is so friendly. Every day we were given “snack bags “ for the day. We stayed five nights and were very comfortable. So were the beds!

What a wonderful property. The lodge and room were amazing. Great space with access to walkout balcony. The room was clean and large. Loved the porch and trolley at main office. Especially enjoyed the white water rafting and dinner experience. Addie was the best river guide and cook!!

We wanted close to GNP entrance and this fit the bill. Great room, nice size, good bathroom, trail snacks provided each evening for next day. There are less expensive options but after long day in the park, if you want a quick drive back, this is the place.

I was very disappointed with my stay. The room had no TV, which was unexpected, and the environment was extremely noisy, making it hard to relax or sleep. On top of that, customer service was essentially nonexistent — no one seemed available or willing to help. Overall, I would not recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. There was also some sort of stuff stuck to the wall that had a bunch of flies stuck to it. Your complementary breakfast comes in a paper bag that they hand to you when you check in, with some stale granola bars. DO NOT STAY HERE
