About this property

Luxury Mountain Cabin. Minutes from East Glacier and Essex

Luxury Mountain cabin completely remodeled minutes from East Glacier and Essex.
Location Halfway between East Glacier to Essex on the southern tip of Glacier Park.
Accommodations: 1 Bed, Loft and 1 bath. Sleeps 6.

Our mountain cabin has been completely remodeled- new beds, furniture, appliances, cabinets, flooring, bathroom, TV, BBQ, and deck furniture.

The cabin is located 18 minutes West of East Glacier and 10 minutes East of Essex. Property is 1/2 mile off of U.S. #2. The Southern border of the lot is the Great Bear Wilderness. With a view of Glacier Park out the front window.

The cabin is very private with a creek running thru the back and Deer, Elk, and Moose often visible from the back deck. Although Private, the cabin has all the comforts: Satellite TV . . Grocery, Golfing, Shopping, Amtrak and Glacier Park Entrance are only 15 miles away at East Glacier. Or you can travel 10 miles West and visit the historic Issak Walton Inn. If you are a horse person you have access to a barn and corrals within walking distance of the cabin, or you can set up a trip with our neighbor down the road who is a licensed wilderness Guide for Hunting, Fishing, Riding or Pack Trips.

During the winter months, the road is kept plowed with 100 yards of the cabin so it becomes a great retreat for skiers and snowmobilers. With private runs behind the cabin and Mt. Sheels, Elk Mt. and Snow Slip Mt. right out the front window.

This is a very exclusive, private cabin, one of a kind with all Glacier Park has to offer, within minutes of the front porch.
Please be sure to download the Rental Agreement after booking this cabin. It has all the information and directions for the cabin.

Very nice cabin that was very comfortable and clean with plenty of space for two couples. The cabin is secluded and private, and has a back deck with a view of the woods and a nearby mountain. It was convenient to be able to access entrances to both sides of Glacier National Park. We would definitely stay again.

The cabin was an excellent place to stay near Glacier NP. I would definitely recommend staying here. Be aware that finding the cabin at night is nearly impossible by following the directions from the owner. I addressed our concerns to them; maybe their instructions will change in the future-- be aware that a daytime arrival is highly advised!

Feels like home

Beautiful cabin in a peaceful location. Everything was just as the listing described. Wish we could have stayed longer!! Distance from the west glacier entrance and St. Mary entrance makes it the perfect “central” location!! Would definitely stay here again!!

Comfortable and private cabin in the woods. Very quiet and relaxing. Easy to follow the directions to the cabin that are in the rental agreement. Host was a little slow to respond. There is no WiFi or phone service, which the description of the property accurately describes, so plan accordingly to either enjoy the silence or bring a Starlink :-)

Perfect little home in the woods with beautiful decor. Great feeling of seclusion. Well stocked with full amenities including grill, fire pit, large deck overlooking the woods, full kitchen and laundry. Great location for East side entrances, especially Two Medicine (30 minutes away). We found some great trails into the park off of Hwy 2 within 10 miles of the cabin as well. Very clean and well cared for home/cabin! Would love to stay here again!

What a beautiful place. We loved our stay there. Quiet you don't see no one. When we got in, the beauty started. Nicely decorated. Would definitely stay there again. Had no problems. And loved the two headed shower. No cell service but that was a good thing, to unplug. Nice and clean.

There is no dishwasher, which was disapointing b/c that was one of the reasons we rented. The washer dryer came in handy. We enjoyed the firepit, but it was a bit far away from the house for our liking. Biggest issue was the overall lack of communication for safety reasons. A land line would be a key asset to this place for ease of mind. When we entered there was mouse droppings all over the inside of the living room. Great location for access to East & West Glacier

This is a beautiful cabin with majestic woods around. Very close to East Glacier. Outside of no cell service and internet connection, the stay was perfect. The host was very responsive and helpful. If you need to get away from civilization you could not find a better place. Although the cabin can sleep 6, I would say 4 is the max because there is only one bathroom. The cabin was fully stocked, and we have all our needs met. Excellent property!

We loved being on the side of a mountain and the view from the back windows into the forest. The back patio was a perfect place to rest with a cold drink after a busy day in Glacier NP. The cabin was nicely decorated and equipped with all you need for a nice stay. We loved it.

Beautiful Mountain Retreat

Not really a cabin, but a beautiful home. Easy check in. First class furnishings and decorations. Comfortable bed. Not really a two bedroom as the 2nd queen size bed is in the loft. Everything worked perfectly. We would absolutely stay here again. Most highly recommended.

Lovely cabin in the woods

We loved the wild flowers around the cabin and the birds were singing every morning and evening. A robin had her nest with 3 baby birds in it under the eave above the back porch. We didn't see any large wildlife, but a curious squirrel tried to visit until the mama robin chased it away. So relaxing without the interuption of cell phones.

We had no problem finding the cabin and loved it as soon as we seen it.Secluded back off main road in a quiet neighborhood with privacy.Great firepit area but we couldn't use it due to fire restrictions.It was still great hanging out on the back deck.No cell service or wi-fi was not a problem for my wife and I we would have it on way to east or west glacier.Great base for exploring east or west glacier,very clean,we loved our stay!

Great stay in the woods

Two couples enjoyed our three nights on this property. Quiet and peaceful! The place was clean and came as advertised. Great experience. We did ask the owner to check the coffee maker. It made coffee but was very slow. The property gives access to both the West Glacier and St Mary entrances to Glacier NP. We discovered the St Mary entrance was less congested than West Glacier, so appreciated the flexibility to use either entrance.

This property was hard to find. There is no cell service in that area, so we had to go back 15 miles to be able to call someone. We, of course, couldn't access our map, and there was no clear address sign to ensure we were at the right place. Other than that, I would give it the best review! It is clean, well-appointed, very cute, too! VERY secluded!

unplugged

Very nice cabin, other than coffee maker needs replaced, it was extremely noisy and took 30 minutes to make a pot of coffee. Very unfriendly neighbor/ cleaning lady. A little hard to find once off main road, vegitation needs to be trimmed! No cell service or Wifi so you are definitely unplugged. Hard to figure out using tv, 3 remotes and no directions! Very beautiful, well kept cabin.
