“Perfect location” is not hyperbole - this was an amazing retreat and home base for an week exploring Glacier National Park. Our family of seven (2 grandsons, 2 adult daughters, 1 son-in-law, and the 2 of us) had plenty of room for privacy and time together. Kitchen was well equipped for preparing meals at home or to take with us on day trips. Fire pit with lots of firewood, Blackstone grill on the deck, and full-size washer & dryer were extra nice features. You will be blown away by this clean, comfortable, and peaceful place to call home for a few days.

Beautiful house outside of Glacier Park

This is a great place to stay! Excellent location right off Highway 2 with close access to either of the main park entrances. It is clean, well furnished, has lots of room, and a great yard. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wished we had even more time!

Great House and Great Location

A beautiful house in a beautiful location. Plenty of space for everyone, well stocked kitchen if making your own meals, and a great quiet spot if you have spent a busy day in the park. The owner's communication was great with directions and grocery stores. When going to Glacier National Park you must see each side of the park and so this is thr perfect to stay to do that.

GNP family getaway

Spacious, clean, well stocked cabin. Rustic interior that adds to the “Montana” experience. Convenient to both east and west entrances of GNP. We also explored Kalispell and took a boat tour of Flathead Lake. Getting around is convenient with the Montana state highway system. We had and awesome week.

Great Family Space

The cabin was well furnished, clean and comfortable. We (family of 7 adults) gathered around the firepit every evening after hiking and enjoyed the cool nights. The cabin is perfectly situated between west and east Glacier NP, offering options for everyone. We would certainly stay here again if we are come back to GNP!

Great property, beautiful location

The house was very comfortable with the best stocked kitchen as far as condiments, flour, sugar,coffee and of course pots, pans. This is the only property I’ve ever stayed at that had a blender and a slow cooker in the kitchen as well. Great amenities! My daughter is a chef so we were all set for meals. Furniture was very comfy and we had lots of room to hang out.

Great Property - Convenient to Both Glacier NP Entrances

We had a great time. Property was very clean and well equipped for our adult family of 4 couples. Access to the West entrance to Glacier NP was about 30 to 40 Minutes -- the East Side was about 50 minutes to an hour. Sounds like long drives but unless you stay in the park you can expect similar drives from most properties. Jennifer the host was very accommodating providing us access to some coolers, additional bear spray and even a blow up mattress. Highly recommend this property.

Awesome cabin!

Beautiful property. Large open gathering areas. Great location. I was a little worried that it would be too remote. That wasn’t a problem. The internet service was great. We did not miss being able to stream videos or text/call. I almost didn’t want to leave the cabin. It was so nice and cozy. We even were able to see the Northern lights! I’m glad we stayed in Essex as we spent most of our time on the East side of Glacier, even though we were technically closer to the west. Loved the little extra things. Huckleberry pancake mix was a fun surprise. Everything in the description was spot on except I think 10 people would not fit comfortably if at all. All in all it’s a great place, great location, great hosts. We’d love to stay here again. Maybe in the winter. There’s a great path right by the cabin. Didn’t see any bears. Saw a deer. Heard lots of birds. Loved being surrounded by pine trees. Absolutely gorgeous.
