Beautiful cabin!

We were so blessed to stay at this cozy, well equipped and beautifully decorated cabin. Peaceful property, challenging ladder down to river but loved it! Would love to stay again. Owners very welcoming and helpful!

Great Getaway

Great location with easy access to Glaciers National Park. House is BETTER than expected with plenty of extras like several cans of bear spray available to borrow. The river behind house is beautiful. We caught several fish right there. Only complaint is that it is close to train tracks, but we all of the area near Glaciers is near them. Nothing some ear plugs couldn't fix.

Coram's Jewel

We had a wonderful stay at lodge. The lodge is a hidden jewel in the woods. It's a beautiful home with all the amenities to make your stay comfortable. We love the added touch of robes and house shoes. One day it rained and we spent a delightful day entertaining ourselves with Rumikub and cards upstairs in the loft. The location is fabulous. Its sits right on the Flathead river. It s a little hike down to the river but so worth it. Coram is a great destination for those traveling to Glacier National Park. It's about 20 minutes to the park's entrance and about 30 minutes to Whitefish for shopping. We loved our stay and highly recommend it.

Beautiful property!

Beautiful property right on the Flathead River! It was clean and comfortable. Easy access to West Glacier entrance. Note that the stairs to the actual river are very steep. That was no problem for our crew, but if you had little kids, going down to the actual river isn't suggested. However, you can hear it and see if from the house. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

Glorious Glacier National Park

This accommodation is very convenient to the west entrance of Glacier National Park. The cabin is quaint and exudes the rustic western vibe. The kitchen is well appointed I would suggest getting your groceries in Kalispell prior to arriving in Coram. The cabin is heated but does not have AC. This was not a problem for our group who visited in mid September the property is shaded with trees. It might, however be an issue if you visit in July. Overall a great accommodation to rest after a long day of excursions in Glacier.

Lovely home close to Glacier’s west entrance

Three married couples from three cities stayed in this home in Cormac and used the time to enjoy one another’s company while exploring Glacier National Park. the home is clean, beautiful and artistically decorated. The kitchen is well stocked and we all felt quite welcome, enjoying the game room and all the homey touches provided by the owner.

Glacier trip

House is a wonderful place to stay and enjoy the Glacier countryside. The house had everything we needed to relax all the beautiful sites. Train whistle was an interesting addition to the experience. Some in the group thought it was fun, other did not like it at 3AM. I certainly recommend this property to anyone coming to Glacier National Park. The property is a very short distance down the road from the West Glacier entrance of the park.

Awesome Cabin Near West Glacier

Great cabin with everything we needed, and then some. Perfect as a base to explore GFlacier. This cabin worked out perfectly for our family. Plenty of room to spead out. The trains that others mention are not a big deal at all. No AC which was a non issue even though it was over 90 for a couple of days of our visit. Property manager was very helpful! I would happily recommend and would stay there again!

Great Place! Loved the deck and the river view.

A couple of things - the smoke alarm went off in the middle of the night on three different nights - for unknown reasons. The grill on the deck is a little small for a group. We had a great time here!

Beautiful Home

The log home on the Flathead River is an excellent place to stay while visiting Glacier National Park – one of the most beautiful places we have been! We were greeted when we arrived and were able to ask questions when needed. The host and her assistant take great care of the place! The house was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked! The property works well for a family or group of 8 or less that wants to be secluded but still have access to all that Flathead County and the surrounding region has to offer. This is one property that truly lives up to the pictures posted on the internet. It is spacious and meticulously decorated in an American Settler and Native American motif, and it really makes you feel like you are part of the Montana folklore. The long driveway leads you back to the house near the Flathead River. From the large, beautiful windows on the second floor, you can see the river below - picturesque. Outside, we all enjoyed descending the long stairs/ladder to the river – especially our kids. Thank you for sharing your log home and helping us make our first stay in Montana so memorable!

Awesome Montana Stay

We loved staying at this cabin! The stairs/ladder to the river were much better than we anticipated after reading some reviews and WELL worth the trek down and back to sit at the beautiful Flathead river! Beds were a little too hard but everything was awesome at the cabin! Our grandbaby loved picking Huckleberries each morning and we enjoyed visits from the cat as well and most especially our breakfasts and evenings on the back deck! We only wish we could have stayed longer!

Very much Montana and a Gem

The log style home is just charming. The attention to detail of a "Montana" style is just lovely and there is not much in the area. Everything was thought of to make our stay so easy from lots of toilet paper, trash bags, shampoo, soap, etc. Usually we get to a house a there is nothing there to start especially if arriving late in the day. Cindy is an amazing property manager, readily available if there is any issue and deals with it rapidly. We had one area where the electric wasn't working and she was so responsive. We had the best stay. The house is close to grocery and liquor stores plus the park entrance at Apgar. We also easily were able to get to the Two Medicine area, Many Glacier, St. Mary and Polebridge. The train really is a non-issue. It does come through but you really get used to the noise. It passes through the entire mountain range and is very important for moving goods from the ports on the West Coast. The scenery is magnificent in the area and the wildlife fun to watch. Deer frequented the property and there is a cat that stops by to eat! If we come back to the area we will stay again. So happy to have been able to have this home shared with us and experience the area.

Glacier Heaven

Our week in Glacier was all we had hoped for...the cabin was perfect for us! It was very comfortable with so much room, and we really enjoyed the privacy of the deck overlooking the river! Thank you for providing the grill...we made burgers and steaks a couple of nights after exploring the park all day. We loved hearing the trains each day and will miss them when we leave! Thanks again for sharing your beautiful home.

Close to Glacier NP

We enjoyed our week at this beautiful log house only10 minutes from West Glacier. Overall, everything was fine except the mattress in the master sags to the middle and needs to be replaced. Also, we were hoping to be down by the river but the stairs were so treacherous to the point that we did not go down after our initial descent. We had to rappel down the last 15 feet and the property manager asked us to sign a liability waiver. Note that I am a former rock climber. Also, the VRBO listing said check out time was 12 noon but the property manager texted that it was 11 am. Fortunately, it wasn't a problem. The listing also said there was an electric grill but there was just a small charcoal grill without any lighter fluid. Despite these issues, we still enjoyed our stay.

West Side of Glacier Park

The property was as described! It was clean, cozy, and had everything you need. I was more disappointed in Montana and the Glacier Park area. I was expecting to be in a log cabin on a mountain with expansive views. It was not like this at all. We were secluded, but had neighbors. The train BNSF comes through the area frequently and at night blowing the train horn. The East Side of Glacier was more expansive and secluded. I envisioned this trip to be in a remote area with expansive views off the mountain in a log cabin where wildlife was accessible and visible. The west side of glacier was not like this. With all that said, I don’t think there is a property in West Glacier area that is nicer than this one.

Super great location for Glacier National park access. Host and team were Super helpful. Would definitely recommend, the access to the river was the highlight of the stay for my kids. One note, children are welcome but you do have to keep an eye on your toddlers (3 year old my case). Many nice items and breakables in the house with in reach of small kids.

Great location but confirm dates before arrival!

Property overall was great. Excellent location to west Glacier…only 10 mins away. The disappointment came upon arrival. Rochelle had our dates incorrectly and thought we weren’t arriving until the following day. It took about two hours to come to a resolution of her getting us a hotel room for the night because the house wasn’t clean and ready. Arrived the next morning and still had to make several calls to finally get the code to get in. She did refund us for the night. Aside from having that experience, the place was great and cozy. The steps to the river are scary…straight down almost like a ladder. We would stay there again but would definitely confirm dates before flying across the country.

About the host

Hosted by Rochelle Danker

Host profile image
Being a native Montanan, I return every summer to the homestead my grandparents built in the early 1900's. I spent my early summer years learning the ways not only of the west but also of their European roots. I built the cabin 4 years ago because I wanted to be closer to the river. The original log cabin of my grandparents is where I spent the last 15 summers until I could build my own with all of todays conveniences. I can't think of any place I would rather be during the summer than in this cabin, including the Central Coast of California where I live the rest of the year.

Why they chose this property

The cabin is on the same property as the original log cabin that my mom and her 6 siblings grew up in. It's just a short walk from one to the other but they still remain a world apart.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is a long way from my permanent home, taking 3 days of driving time. There just isn't any place like Montana or the strong spirit of the offspring of the settlers that came before them. There isn't much bravado shown or horn blowing when it comes to the pride the people show in where they live. It shows in the way they treat the land, their families and visitors. You're never a stranger when you visit Montana. They are very proud of where they live, proud of how they live and are eager for visitors to feel the same way when they leave. The weather is ever changing in the spring, summer and fall. We have glorious thunderstorms that shake the ground, hot dry days made for hiking, cool nights when the mountain inhabitants become silent, waiting for yet another great day in Montana.
