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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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!

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.

Clean and comfortable

My husband and our two friends stayed here on our visit to Glacier NP. After camping for a few days prior, this place seemed like the Ritz. We were happy to have a well-stocked kitchen to cook in, comfortable beds to sleep in, a washer and dryer to do our laundry and a HOT SHOWER. I would be happy to return here on my next trip to Glacier.

September in Columbia Falls

Cute little bungalow for spouse and myself and stayed 3 nights for the Glacier NP leg of our trip. It was around a 20 minute drive to Glacier NP. We enjoyed being greeted every morning by the neighborhood cats when we walked to the River Edge Park path. Home was conveniently located near grocery store, gas stations, and coffee shops. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Glacier Getaway

My husband and I had a great Glacier visit and this bungalow made the trip that much better. We were thrilled to find the property in great condition, clean, and had everything we needed. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, the kitchen had every utensil we could ask for, there were plenty of towels, the bed was comfy and the house was just the right size. We enjoyed using the BBQ and relaxing on the deck after a day of hiking in Glacier. If you're a couple looking for a comfy quiet spot to base your trip from, then this fits the bill.

Charming cozy house in the perfect location

We truly had the best time in Montana. This house is great for dogs, the backyard is perfect. We walked to the house/river and walked to the downtown area for drinks/food. I even walked to the Yoga Hive classes for the week we stayed. It's pretty close to Glacier, you'll have to drive unless you stay in the park. It's in the middle to Flathead Lake (our winner of the trip to swim in the Summer). And close to Whitefish which has cute shopping and restaurants. The hosts were responsive and the house was well stocked. Enjoy your Montana adventure at a home away from home!

Very Charming Cottage

What a lovely cottage! Looks just as good as the pictures. Especially after we had stayed in motels for 2 weeks, this was a totally welcome change. Very comfortable after a long day at Glacier Park. How nice to be able to do laundry and cook on the grill. Wish we could have stayed longer! We also enjoyed exploring Columbia Falls and surrounding area a bit. The proximity to Glacier was perfect. Definitely recommend this property. One suggestion - provide a listing of TV channels. It was tough to figure out what was what.
