We were a group of four adults who spent two nights at this cabin. It was an excellent stay! Very comfortable bedding and lots of nice touches, such as a cornhole game, an adult-sized tree swing, a nice propane grill, and a very quiet setting. Each night we ate outside on the deck. We would definitely stay here again!!

Peaceful cabin in the woods.

This was a lovely historic cabin in the woods not far from West Glacier. It is fully modern and a great place to stay for a family or someone looking for peace and solitude. This cabin would be a fantastic location for a writing or meditation personal retreat.

We stayed in Spotted Bear Cabin. It was everything we could have hoped for and more. The cabin was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. We made good use of the patio and grill. Glacier Park was only a short drive away. The perfect place to unwind after a day in the parks. Thanks so much for the amazing hospitality!

Comfortable and Convenient

Our family of five enjoyed our stay at this clean and comfortable cabin about 15 minutes to the West side of Glacier Park. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. It included thoughtful extras like a cooler, ice packs, nice towels and firewood for a fire pit. Would definitely stay here again!

So close to the park!

This was a perfect stop for my family on our visit to Glacier National Park. My sons - 13 and 16 - always appreciate separate rooms instead of staying in hotels. An extra full bathroom was also a plus! We were able to check in and then head to the park. We visited Apgar, Lake McDonald, and hiked Trail of the Cedars the night before our GTTSR pass. Great stay!

Great place

We were there for a golf tournament at Glacier View and it was a little far but had we been there for an outdoor experience, reunion, etc it would be perfect. It had everything we needed and thoroughly enjoyed a campfire every evening. A little hard to find, for us, but had really good directions. Would definitely recommend this place.

Perfect for location and space for privacy as well as a small group of six.

We stayed two nights and had virtually everything we needed to get to and from our daily activities as well as take care of ourselves while at the property. Loved the remote location that is, at the same time, close to anything we needed or intended to do. Doyle was very responsive when we asked a question. We would stay here again.

Great stay near Glacier National Park!

We couldn’t get a reservation at Lake McDonald Lodge so we decided to look for a vacation rental near the park. We were 3 couples that had been traveling through the Canadian Rockies and staying in hotels for 8 days. It was a nice break to have this wonderful cabin to stay in. We took advantage to get our laundry done and cook breakfast and dinner. The cabin was quaint, well stocked and comfortable (and half the price of Lake McDonald Lodge).
