About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Glacier Get Away cottage with mountain view & large, private, landscaped yard.

This house is conveniently located on the east side of Glacier National Park where the Great Plains meet the Rocky Mountains. Along with spectacular views, we benefit from fewer people, more wildlife, easy, quick access to Glacier Park entry sites along with trails on the border of the park and millions of acres of wilderness in the Great Bear wilderness and the Flathead National Forest. The contrast of the Great Plains to the Rocky Mountains makes East Glacier the most spectacular of places to stay while visiting the entirety of Glacier Park.

A true VRBO, whole house and yard for your private enjoyment. Located just minutes from the Two Medicine Valley - one of the gems of the park with no access reservation necessary, plenty of hiking, spectacular views and boat tours operated by Glacier National Park.

This house has been transformed inside and out over the last 5 years with interior remodeling, new furniture and landscape upgrades to improve our guest experience. The living room boasts a panoramic Mountain View window for lots of natural light. There is plenty of seating, strong WIFI, Air Conditioning and a 56 inch swivel mounted smart television for stream viewing in living room or kitchen. We also offer a few puzzles, cards and games for entertainment in the home.

The bathroom is freshly remodeled to include a full shower/tub and on-demand (endless) hot water for everyone to enjoy after a long day on the trails. A WASHER/DRYER is also available to help you keep up on vacation laundry.

The master bedroom has a queen size bed. The second bedroom provides a queen bed and a twin bunk. Also available is a inflatable queen mattress with bedding. The kitchen is fully stocked with the utensils needed to create fantastic meals while the bar-b-que can be used for continued outdoor enjoyment of the Rocky Mountain Front.

We, the owners, have returned to full time management of this property after a couple years of physical distance. We are looking forward to assuring your stay is easy, comfortable and memorable. We clean with bleach based cleansers for each reset of this remodeled home, one of the very few houses in East Glacier with air conditioning. This house has a view of the mountains, manicured grounds with flower gardens and large lawn. With a wraparound yard, bar-b-que and picnic table, a secluded and shaded aspen grove and view of the Rocky Mountain Front, this home will be a perfect base for you while visiting our little corner of the world. Bordered by privacy fencing, it is beautiful, spacious, private and the perfect location for visiting all of Glacier National Park - just 30 minutes from St. Mary, 45 minutes from Many Glacier and less than an hour from West Glacier.

At this comfortable and welcoming vacation home, you will wake to the alpine glow of a continental divide sunrise after a solid night's sleep in comfortable beds. Notice the crispness of the mountain air as you head out on your Glacier Park adventure just minutes away. Head out to explore the majestic beauty and wild nature of the east side of the park while keeping your eye out for bear and moose and other wildlife on your short trip to Two Medicine Valley, St. Mary or Many Glacier. Our nearest Glacier Park entrance - Two Medicine - is a mere 15 minutes away.

Upon your arrival home, notice the cool air provided by the AC unit and get ready for an afternoon/evening enjoying the lawn, picnic table, grill and evening sunset behind the stunning mountains known as Summit Mtn, CalfLooking, Dancing Lady and Mt Henry. Use the well-stocked kitchen for a home cooked dinner or wander up the street to explore the various local restaurants including The Peak, Serrano's Mexican Restaurant, Stageline Pizza or take a nice stroll past the historic lodge to the Whistle Stop - a BBQ joint on the other side of town. East Glacier is a small enough town that walking is a preferred mode of transportation for most.

Fly into either Kalispell or Great Falls for easy arrival in spectacular East Glacier Park. We offer a no contact arrival and departure experience.

Your Glacier Get Away awaits you.

Disappointing
I was really disappointed when I pulled up and saw that the yard had clearly not been attended to for some time. The grass was very long. The listing boasts a yard but when the grass isn’t even cut it doesn’t make it very inviting to use. It was very surprising to me that something so simple to make the place look better was not done. The house is very dated!! I can deal with that providing it is clean and it was for the most part other than it could have used a good dusting. The location was good with restaurants in walking distance but the neighborhood is sketchy to say the least. On a positive the hostess was prompt and helpful in replying to questions.

East side
We wanted to explore the East side and really enjoyed the amazingly beautiful drive to St. Mary’s and Many Glacier. Sunrise at Two Medicine was great too. The property is rustic. The AC was in the living room window; we didn’t use it at night because it was not hot at night and it wouldn’t have helped in the bedrooms.

Great location but pretty dirty
The location of the house is fantastic and it included all the amenities we needed. However, the property was pretty dirty. Not just in an old house way, but there was hair in the fridge and freezer, a pile of hair in the bathtub drain, hair all over the shower curtain and hair all over the pillowcases. Plus a pile of toenail clippings in the corner of one bedroom. We did a lot of cleaning and laundry before feeling comfortable staying here.

East Glacier Home Base
The house was the perfect home base for our family of five, while we explored eastern Glacier National Park. While we sometimes wished for a 2nd bathroom, the endless hot water from the tankless water heater was great. I really enjoyed the high-end detailed maps of Glacier, and other helpful extras the host provides with the house.

June 2023 Glacier visit
The location of the house is excellent for jumping off to many starting points on the east side of Glacier and close to gas and grocery stores. Having bear spray, a white noise machine, and on demand hot water was helpful and appreciated. The internet and TV access was great after long days hiking, allowing for researching hikes of the area and entertainment. I was disappointed that the yard wasn't mowed and didn't look like the pictures. Overall it was a quiet, convenient location and met my needs. The owner was responsive with ideas for hikes and other activities to do in the area.

Good for the East Side
The house was clean and was most likely one of the nicest houses in its neighborhood. However, be aware that some of the neighboring houses do not meet the same standards that this house does, which was a surprise. There were also lots of dogs running around. They did not bother us but you do hear them barking at night. Convient to the 2 Medicine Entrance but an hour drive to Many Glacier and St. MARY'S Entrance. Washer and dryer was a big plus for traveling with kids and having Wi-fi was helpful in planning for days spent in the park.
