We loved our stay here. The room was much larger than we expected and everything we could need was included. Check in was easy and staff was great. One star taken off for noise from laundry room on corner of our building.
Overall this was a great place. The best thing about it was the location! Amazing to be able to be this close to the park, but also close to anything we needed and other fun towns like Bigfork. The space was comfortable, and nice. It made for a great time in Glacier!
It was a very nice, clean, comfortable stay. Plenty of space for the 7 of us. Plenty of dishes (no dishwasher),
Laundromat was free (huge plus)
Nice parking for vehicles
This does have a separate living area downstairs, with steep stairs to go upstairs for kitchen, living room, and bedrooms and bathrooms
Great proximity to West entrance of Glacier. We rented a family apartment and it worked out great! Complementary laundry. Only thing that was bad was frying pans (as is usually the case in a rental- I’m sure it’s hard to keep them up) so I bring my own. Otherwise great rental .
We stayed in Two Medicine unit and it was great. Had everything we needed, bed was comfy. Location was convenient for our needs, and they had free laundry.
After a week on the East Glacier side of Glacier National Park hiking, we loved coming to this wonderful home more than condo, just a great, wonderful place to stay!
Thanks for making our stay so great!
The place was far bigger, and newer than we expected and it was a lovely, relaxing place to retreat to after Glacier National Park. The kitchen was well stocked, and everything we needed was there. This place was fantastic, and a great value.
Spacious for our family of 6! Super clean and plenty of towels for.our stay! Great proximity to GNP. Loved having a kitchen and living room area. Would definitely recommend to families!
Arrived late and could not locate building on property because it was after dark. No one on staff at arrival.
Called and texted number used to confirm reservation but got no answer. Had to walk property with flashlight to locate apartment. Took me about 30 minutes determine where i was staying. Very frustrating considering it was late and everyone was tired and ready for showers from hiking. Property manager should have emailed or texted map of property prior to my arrival. Ice maker did not work either. Unit was clean and beds were comfortable.
