Amazing

Where to start… the property is amazing. Well cared for and full of beautiful spots to rest and enjoy nature. The animals on the property are very friendly and adds to the enjoyment of the property. The cottage, Aberdeen, was so homey, clean and quaint all at the same time. My wife and I fell in love for it immediately. To close, we’d both highly recommend this spot to anyone looking to stay in the area. If we ever come back this is our spot for sure!

Beautiful and relaxing

Dave and Kim are wonderful hosts - so welcoming and gave great advice for local restaurants as well as outdoor activities. The house has beautiful views of the pond and the llamas, alpacas, and donkeys are near enough to see from the kitchen and living room windows. Saw turkeys and deer on the property as well. Quiet location not far from Glacier National Park as well as many other small local towns with much to offer. Hiking all around the area nearby. We would absolutely return! Highly recommend. Thanks Dave and Kim!

Great place in great location

We loved our stay at Plaid Swan.. Aberdeen Cottage was perfect for two with everything we could have wanted. The property is beautiful and suited our desire to be in a quiet country setting. We loved hanging with the llamas and donkeys as well as being visited by deer on a regular basis. Dave and Kim were great hosts and such nice people. We loved having our own slice of country heaven while being so close to everything the area has to offer, including Glacier National Park. We happily recommend Plaid Swan.

Sanctuary

Entering the gate was like entering a fairytale. We enjoyed every second of our stay and were a bit sad when we had to leave. Each day began with a serenade of bird song while we enjoyed morning coffee on our front porch overlooking the pond. The location was secluded, yet convenient to Yellowstone National Park, Kalispell, and many other lakes and trails to explore. The hospitality was genuine and we found every amenity at our fingertips. We hope to return next year.

Great property and owners

My wife and I had a great stay at the Plaid Swan Ranch. Extremely well kept property and our cabin was great. We spent most of our time at Glacier National Park so we were not on the property much. Dave and Kim are great communicators and hosts. Wish we could have visited with them more. Hope to be back in the future.
