The house is immaculate. Clean and very well appointed. Melissa is very generous from eggs in the fridge to popcorn in the pantry. Everything is labeled and easy to find. The house has many scented candles, soaps and fabric softeners. If this is a problem for anyone in your group it may not be the right rental for you or you may want to contact Melissa before you book. It is a beautiful home in a beautiful area near Glacier National Park.

This house was our last stop of three rentals, by far was our favorite. 5 Stars across the board! The property owners were attentive in their communication. I would highly recommend this property; it is tucked away and private. Peaceful at night and the Montana sky full of stars! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with travelers!

Our group of 4 adults stayed 5 nights in September 2025. If you're planning a trip to the Glacier National park area and want a secluded location with comfortable amenities close to the park - this is perfect! The pictures don't do the property justice. The rooms and spaces are bigger than the pictures make it seem. The house was the best equipped we have stayed in - it had everything including coolers for trips in to the park. The property is down a well-kept gravel driveway, secluded from neighbors. You'll get to see neighboring horses on your drive in and out of the property. The beds were so comfortable! The kitchen had more than you would need during your stay including bathrobes and even some boots! Every time we thought - I wonder if they have any.... - they did! High end appliances. The two king bedrooms were on opposite ends of the house across the living area from each other which was perfect for our trip with two couples. Melissa was quick to respond to questions and was able to help when I messed up on our check out date. The property is quiet and secluded - but still within 20 minutes of restaurants and the park. I do hope we get to stay here again!

The house is wonderful. It is literally a 15 minute drive from Glacier National Park. The two bedrooms and bathrooms are on opposite ends of the house and there is a great room in the middle. Our host was magnificent. The house was impeccably clean. There were plenty of spices and cooking essentials; she even made me a special blend of herbs which I cherished. The hot tub is great with lots of bubbles. The fire pit comes pre-stocked with logs and kindling. We had a problem with the Internet when we were there and it was literally fixed within the hour. Also an important tip: There is no need to drive down to Kalispell to pick up good groceries, meats, and vegetables. Instead, there is a Super 1 Food Store in Columbia Falls on the way from the Airport to this location. You can stock up on everything there and save yourself a round trip to downtown Kalispell. Highly recommend this house!

Everything was superb. The home was beautiful, and the location unbeatable. Unlike most VRBO’s I’ve stayed at, this home felt loved and not sterile. Melissa thought of everything with lots of little perks that make it feel just like home. Only 14 minutes to West Glacier entrance. Hosts communicated whenever needed. Thank you Melissa and Beau!

Peaceful, really beautiful property

We loved our five nights at Stony Broke Ranch. The house is gorgeous and situated in a very serene setting. The host has thought of everything to make the stay comfortable and effortless, with heavenly beds, a well equipped kitchen, and cozy seating in the living room. And everything is spotlessly clean. We really enjoyed the views of the mountains, trees, and the horses on the ranch, along with all the deer that came by. Our thanks to the host.

Spectacular home and views - minutes from Glacier!

This is truly a spectacular home! Melissa has thought of everything - making her home feel like home! The gorgeous living room with amazing views of the ranch and mountains. The kitchen is stocked with anything you need to cook. The beds, bedding and pillows are extremely high quality. Loved coming home after a long day adventuring in Glacier to relax in the front yard with breathtaking views of the ranch and mountains. This far exceeded our expectations and we cannot wait to come back!!

AMAZING!!

We stayed for 7 days with our son and daughter in law to hike GNP --- Melissa, Beau and Family were so friendly and communicating with them was so easy. Their home is absolutely AMAZING!! it was so clean, well laid out and stocked with everything we needed. It's so incredibly beautiful!! All cabinets are marked so you are not searching for what you are looking for. The tall windows in the living room are awesome as you can watch the night sky with all the bright stars. Thank you for letting us love on your horses!! We were so sad to leave but we will definitely be back to stay at your beautiful home again. Melissa and Robert Ripkey - Plainfield IL

A Beautiful Hideaway just outside of Glacier

We were blown away by Melissa‘s attention to detail in her beautiful home. She really has thought of everything from labels on the drawers to bear spray to Bluetooth speakers this place has it all! It is sparkling, clean and very well appointed. We really enjoyed the hot tub after a day of hiking in this private oasis. In short, this has been the absolute best experience we’ve ever had in a VRBO!
