About this property

A-frame at Spotted Bear Retreat

Only 10 miles from the west entrance to Glacier National Park and a short drive to the Hungry Horse Reservoir and nearby Flathead Lake, our cabins are your perfect home base for exploring everything the area has to offer. Built during the 1950s while the Hungry Horse Dam was being constructed, these cabins were simple dwellings and at one time were without plumbing or electricity. They have been completely renovated, including new HVAC and are now darling little vacation homes with a lot of character and history.

This stylish little A-frame cabin features climate controlled heating and air conditioning, a comfortable king bed in the upstairs bedroom loft, and a big bathroom with double vanity. The kitchen is stocked with all essentials for cooking homemade meals, including basic spices and a coffee bar. The living area includes a queen size pullout sofa bed as well.

*If you are traveling with a group see our other Spotted Bear listings and stay together!

This house was perfect for my girlfriend and I. We were here for glacier national park and this property was the perfect place to wind down and prepare for our next hike every night. Everything was spotless, the host communicated everything clearly and effectively, and it’s conveniently located close enough to the park and town. Would absolutely recommend this property to a friend or family member.

Cabin was clean, well stocked, and easy to find. It had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. Day to day cleaning was well done but could use a little more deep cleaning (fan blades, vent cover in shower, etc.). We enjoyed our stay. Cozy and comfortable.

Overall, our stay was pleasurable, the A-Frame housekeeping cottage is newly updated inside, very clean and functional. We appreciated extras, such as Bear Spray, hiking information book, fully stocked coffee selection, creamers and the Keurig Machine, to name a few.The property on which the Spotted Bear is located could benefit from a more esthetic landscaping. That said, it is some good distance from the main road (US 2) thus is quiet and even some deer could be observed grazing, a cat prowling, birds singing. My husband and I would definitely rent again from this host.

Spotted Bear - the Perfect Glacier Retreat

We had a fantastic stay at the Spotted Bear A-Frame. Rustic and cozy. Quick drive to Glacier, restaurants and stores. As others have reviewed, wifi is very spotty, which did not bother us. Would love to return here soon.
