    Welcome to your home away from home at Glacier Retreat. The beauty and activities are endless.
    This rental house is surrounded by national forest. Great for peaceful, quiet nights.
    Easy one and a half mile walk to Flathead river where you can fish, have a picnic, or just relax.
    8 minute drive to the West entrance to Glacier National Park.
    Glacier National park has something for everyone. There are horse back riding tours, and helicopter tours. They offer a free shuttle from the visitor center to the top of the pass. Enjoy the breathtaking scenery while letting someone else do the driving. They have rafting tours with some including dinner along the rivers edge. There is wildlife and so many hikes ranging from extreme to easy strolls. There is plenty of picnic places in the park. Lake McDonald offers paddle boards and kayaks to rent for a day on the lake. There are plenty of gift shops to stroll through to take home a souvenir.
    About 30 minutes from Whitefish where there is shopping, bars, and restaurants.
    About 45 minutes to Big Mountain ski resort where there is snow skiing in winter and hiking in the summer. The views up Big mountain are amazing.
    About 45 minutes to Lakeside featuring Flathead Lake and swimming access to the lake. Charter a fishing boat and fish for the day on Flathead lake, the largest natural lake west of the Mississippi.
    About 15 minutes to Hungry Horse Dam where there is boating, fishing, and swimming.
    About 30 minutes to historic downtown Kalispell.
    About 30 minutes to Big Fork where there is shopping, food and breweries on the Flathead lake.
    This is just the beginning. Columbia Falls has a big water slide that has mini golf, a rock wall and you can bring your own food for a barbecue. There is a wooden maze to keep your mind sharp. The house of mystery will leave you in mystery. Enjoy so many huckleberry food items from ice cream, pies, fudge to jams and candies. Flathead lake has boat tours to enjoy, as well as beach access to swim. After a day out exploring Montana, sit back and relax on the front porch of Glacier retreat. Come enjoy Montana's Big Sky and beautiful scenery.

Great place to stay!

We enjoyed our stay at the Glacier Retreat! The proximity to West Glacier is really great and allowed us flexibility to come and go from the park. The house had everything we needed. Gina is great and she gave us some suggestions on places to go/see. If we ever make it back to Glacier we would stay there again.

Great location for Glacier

Nice, clean, location close to the park. I thought it was more isolated but it was in a neighborhood. It was very quiet though. 2 good size bedrooms and baths. Coffee was provided which was great. No soap for a shower or bath but that was the only thing we lacked.

Clean comfortable stay in a cabin near Glacier Park

We had a delightful stay while visiting Glacier. The cabin was immaculate. Cleanliness is important to us and it exceeded our expectations. We had our long term friends from Washington State meet us there. The cabin was perfect for our needs. The two separate bathrooms were a plus. The beds were comfortable and we all slept great. We also enjoyed the large table for evenings with a puzzle or games.

A great stay for our family

We really enjoyed our stay here for 4 nights. The house had everything we needed. Plenty of space for the three of us. The kitchen and grill were great. The house was very clean. The neighborhood was quiet and convenient to Glacier National Park (about 15 min away). We picked up groceries nearby in Columbia Falls. My son loved fishing and catching some small lake trout near the Blankenship bridge only 5 minutes away. Gina was quick to respond to messages and check-in was very easy. We would definitely love to stay here again!

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?
