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.
