Very nice accommodation, as described. Great base camp location for hiking and exploring. Quiet neighborhood, even with lots of foot traffic to nearby park, which is a lovely stroll along the river. Would stay here again.

This was a great little place! Actually, the pictures didn’t do it justice, we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. It was clean and nicely stocked, including bear and bug spray! The location was great, safe and near restaurants. It was perfect for our trip to GNP. I highly recommend.

The home was clean, bed was comfy, and the backyard made it incredibly nice while having a dog. I 10 out of 10 recommend this home. I did not need to communicate with the owner for any reason, so I am unsure how responsive they would be. But, the home was as stated and the stay was incredible.

Loved staying at the Glacier Bungalow

It was convenient to West Glacier entrance, grocery store, and to restaurants. The place was very clean with a well-stocked kitchen for cooking. The grill was also great - we ate outside every night. We would recommend this place and would stay here again when visiting the area.

This house is in a quiet neighborhood with white tail deer that visit each night, sometimes there are 3 that like to eat the delicious apples in the neighbors yard. If you not too tired from hiking all day a walk to the Flathead beside this home is very relaxing.

Quiet Comfortable Bungalow Near Glacier

This cozy comfortable home was clean and had everything we needed. Since we traveled with our dog, we loved the fenced in backyard and the perfect location to walk through River's Edge Park. West Glacier and the entrance to Glacier Park was about 20 minutes away. This is our second time staying at the Bungalow and we recommend it.

This property is a gem located in Columbia Falls. The host is responsive and the property clean. The captivating view is a short walk from the house not the front door view. Conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood is close to dining and Glacier National Park. The home is very comfortable and we enjoyed spending our 20th anniversary there.

Excellent stay!

My husband, myself and our pup stayed at this property for a vacation in the mountains. This cozy cabin was clean and quiet. It was located within walking distance to some great trails to walk through by the river. The fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. The owners were easy to reach and left lots recommendations for local places to eat and things to do. Would highly recommend!

This location is prime. After our daily hikes at Glacier National Park (just 20 minutes away) we were able to come home to grill out and enjoy walks along the Flathead River. This is a perfect location. The home is clean, has everything we needed and comfortable. Communication with the host was responsive and positive. We cannot wait to return and cannot recommend this host and location enough. 11 out of 10! Don't forget to visit the Gunsight Saloon and for the BEST butcher Perfect Cuts you can't go wrong.

Lovely base for Glacier National Park exploration!

We enjoyed our time at the house, which was right next to a neighborhood park with great walking paths. We spent a week enjoying Glacier National Park. It is about a 25 minute drive to the Apgar Visitor Center and the start of the Going-To-The-Sun road. The house is well set up for a couple and had everything we needed.
