The coziest cabin! Such a peaceful place, tucked in the woods making it feel private and in the middle of nature. Just what I was looking for! We sat on the back patio every morning with a cup of coffee and watched the hummingbird visits. A few deer made nearby visits. We ventured down the trail to the pond and tried to catch a fish. Though we weren’t successful, the hike was fun. The cabin is well appointed with everything one could need & the bed was very comfortable. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Where do I start? The cabin was absolutely amazing! They left special treats that were amazing. The kitchen had everything you needed. The peacefulness was priceless. I loved waking up and looking at a mountain. I was so inspired by their cabin I will be building one myself. Would highly recommend!!

I could live here! I travel a bunch and have yet to see a better-appointed renal home. The pantry was better stocked than my own and had everything we could have needed. The view into the valley was incredible, as was the drive in. The bed was fantastic!! I really appreciated having bear spray available, although we saw no bears. I hope to stay there again someday.

Amazing.

This cabin is beautiful and cozy. While we were using it to take a break from the Glacier National Park area, you could absolutely stay here while you were visiting the park. The drive to the cabin is also stunning. Mikki and Bill have thought of literally everything to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable. Communicatuon with Mikki was great, and there are notes throughout the cabin to give directions on how to use things. Do not hesitate to rent this wonderful property.

Amazing home away from home

We had a wonderful time at Mikki’s cabin! It was perfect for our week relaxing and exploring Whitefish and Glacier NP. The cabin was clean and very comfortable with all of the amenities we needed; it made the perfect place to come home to after long hikes and other adventures. It’s close enough to Whitefish to make going into town for dinner, or ice cream!, easy. And the drive from town is through one of the prettiest valleys I’ve ever seen! We hope to be back!

Secluded, Serene, Spectacular

Those three words really describe this beautiful "cabin in the woods". This was the first time that we had been to this part of Montana and this was the perfect place to stay for lots of reasons. It is not far from Glacier National Park, and it is very close to the town of Whitefish, which we found charming with lots of good places to eat. Mikki was a wonderful communicator from the start and she was ALWAYS available to answer questions and make good suggestions on things to do and places to eat. And it is the best equipped VRBO home that we have rented. Mikki has thought of everything! If you are looking at this property, rent it! You won't be disappointed. And when you are there, be sure to read the story in the magazine on the coffee table about what made Mikki and Bill want to retire in this area, and all of the planning that went into making this such an extraordinary cabin. It was obviously a real labor of love, and it is a true work of art! This is not just a property, it is a home, and that's exactly how it feels from the time you walk in the door!

Great first visit to Montana

When you immediately feel at home in a vacation rental, you know you made a good choice. We spent 10 nights here and the cabin greatly added to our experience in seeing this area for first time. Owners are nearby and helpful if needed. We enjoyed the hike to the lake, the kayak and fishing. Whitefish is a short drive away for shopping and groceries. Would definitely rent again.
