Awesome accommodations
Perfect location to explore Glacier National Park. Just 15 minutes from the west entrance. Well equipped and clean. Having 2 bathrooms was very important. Gina was available when we needed her and communicated as needed. Only complaint the WiFi was intermittent. But the idea was to not be tuned into electronics… right?

Great Spot!
Gina was great — super responsive and kind. Kitchen was well stocked and place was clean. Two full bathrooms, a porch, and a gas grill worked out great. Proximity to Glacier was fantastic. Would definitely book again.

Great Stay by West Glacier
We spent two nights here during our family vacation to Glacier National Park. This place worked perfect for us and met all of our needs. The setting was quiet and peaceful, the kitchen well-stocked, and the beds comfortable. Gina was very friendly and helpful, giving us tips for places to try. We would highly recommend this VRBO.

Just what we needed
This house was a gem for our family of 8. The house looks small from the outside but felt roomy and homey on the inside. The design is neat and simple, an open setup. Everything is clean and tasteful, all hardwood and tile floors, no extra cluttery decor. We were thrilled at the long kitchen table with benches as it's rare to find a table that fits us with room to spare. Gina responded to my questions almost immediately which is so helpful when traveling. We would definitely recommend!

The Perfect Home Base for Glacier Family Vaca!
This property is amazing! Everything is extremely clean and tidy. The open concept was great for my 1 year old to play. The full bath with a tub was perfect as well. There are two bathrooms and you can run both at the same time with warm water. The softened water was a really nice plus! Gina is a great host, from inquiring about staying, to the day we left, she stayed in contact with us and ensured we had everything that we needed even the day she was on vacation herself. That was impressive! You can tell she genuinely cares about ensuring you have an amazing time. The kitchen was well stocked to include two crockpots which was great hiking all day and coming home to an easy meal. The town is really close by to get groceries which was RARE when we were looking to find a place to stay. It’s quiet and peaceful during the day and night yet 5 minutes from the West Glacier gate. This is the only rental property around so there’s not a ton of traffic, it’s peaceful. Being able to park and drive right up to the home is another major plus for loading and unloading the car everyday. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and enjoying the nature and quiet breeze and cuddling up on the couches and watching movies.
