The home was very easy to find, check in process was smooth, great location, very clean, nice yard. The host was very responsive and provided us a great home to stay in. We had a wonderful time and would stay here again when we come back to Montana! Highly recommend!!
Property was perfect for our needs; short 20-30 minute drive to GNP, plenty of room, and all the amenities we needed and then some. Brandon was easy to contact whenever we had a question. Would stay here again in a heartbeat when we come back to GNP.
A wonderful location near the National Park and a very convenient small town. The house had everything we needed available. The back yard was a great spot to hang out after a day at the park and it was clean and well maintained. The neighborhood was quite and clean. I wouldn’t hesitate in staying there again some day.
Really just the best experience all around. Host was wonderful, everything went very smoothly. Home was just beautiful and worked well for our family, two adult couples. Thank you!
We had a great experience, lovely home, close to all activities and extremely attentive host. The home is clean and well stocked, enjoyed being able to cook meals in the kitchen and enjoy meals outside in the yard
This house was better than their listing. Very clean and the extra care really shows. The back yard is amazing. I’ve stayed at homes for twice the price that were nowhere near the fabulousness of this home.
Best rental stay we have had by far. Great neighborhood with plenty of deer, perfectly clean and comfortable. Cute town. As my dad said “very thoughtful place”. You’ll find everything you need here with lots of extras stocked throughout the house - snacks, extra towels, etc. Awesome visit. Can’t wait to come back!

Jennifer - We would like to thank you and your family for the way you took care of our house. You left the home as you found it, almost as if you hadn't even stayed. We wish every guest was as thoughtful and considerate as you. We would love to have you back anytime! Families like yours make sharing a home fun. Thank you.
This home was so clean, cozy and accommodating. They’ve done such a great job at making it very welcoming! We’d stay here again and again. The host is very responsive, kind and helpful! We are grateful for their home. We made some incredible memories while visiting the area. So many cool things to see and do around there. Thanks again for the amazing week!
We loved this clean and well stocked property. The sign with our names by the door, bowl of snacks and fresh fruit were fantastic. Staying here made us close to the airport and national park. I would happily stay here again.
Brandon and his property were a great landing place for myself and my family. The home had many personal touches, including snacks and toiletries. The shaded backyard was a beautiful oasis that our dogs and kiddo enjoyed playing in. When we ran into an issue with one of the bathrooms Brandon was quick to respond and help us out. Thank you for a lovely stay!
House was in a quiet neighborhood. Very clean. Convenient to dining in Columbia Falls and a short drive to Glacier National Park. Would definitely stay here again in the future! Highly recommended.
We really enjoyed our stay in Columbia Falls. The American Flag and welcome sign on the front porch set the stage for a very clean comfortable home.
The location in town was close to our activities yet away from the busy part of town.
Our hosts were great to work with. We hope to stay here again.
This is a very nice house in a peaceful neighborhood. It was very clean and stocked with everything you need. The owners even have a few extra little things in the house that make the stay even better. They really think of the little things!
This is a great property to stay in!!! The home and yard are clean and spacious!!! It is about 25 min from the West Glacier entrance. We had a blast!!!!

About the host
Hosted by Girl Friday Personal Assistant Services
We started Girl Friday in 2010 for a way for Laura to showcase her passion for decorating and party coordinating. We decided to move from Glacier Gate way closer to our day jobs but kept the house as a branch of service offered by the business. The success of the house has been exciting. At the end of each rental season, we look back at the written comments in the diary that guest love to share their experience and gratitude for all the extra attention Laura puts into their stay. It has been very rewarding, and we do not expect to slow down. If you are in search of an experience that will make unforgettable memories, get ahold of us to customize your experience. She will make it evident that she loves to make your stay special.
