Nice place to stay, which was clean and well located for activities in whitefish and glacier national park. There’s a good outdoor area with a hot tub, volleyball court, and fire pit. Arrival was easy as well. I’d stay here again!

Wonderful stay!

We loved this VRBO! The fenced in yard, back patio, & activities in the garage were perfect for our young kids. We didn't realize one of the rooms was in a separate bunk house, but it worked for our group! We loved relaxing in the hot tub at the end of the day. I'd definitely come back!

Our stay was wonderful. The location of the property is perfect for trips into Glacier National Park. The house was clean and great for a big group of friends or family. The host, Brenda, was very responsive and helpful. Being located on the property, meant she was always available to answer questions and help with any issues. The property is the perfect mix of out of the way and close enough to town to make runs to grocery etc. I would definitely stay again.

Amazing!!

We had an awesome time, place was very clean. The host Brenda is really nice and reply to messages right away. Some of the cleaning instruction were weird, we are from Canada and never have to do anything when we stay in local property. But it wasn't a deal breaker. Highly reccommend to book this place!!!

3 generation vacation

We just returned from a family vacation--us and our kids and grandkids and what a beautiful home and very helpful guests. We appreciated having a place we could eat and not have to take little ones out and the back yard and patio were so helpful for doing things with kids and adults alike. the house was so clean even the garage was spotless. The flowers and landscape was wonderful. It is a great way to see the sites and area. Our hosts treated us like special guests. thank you Dave and Brenda Terry and Linda Johnson

Great, but...

We had a great time in this cabin - but the pictures and description are misleading - while there were plenty of beds for all (1 queen, 1 king, 1 bunkbed twin over queen), there was only one actual self-enclosed bedroom. The bunk-bedroom connected directly to the garage, and the upstairs loft area had no door either. Extremely spacious upstairs but no real privacy. The garage on the other hand was FANTASTIC - stocked with a Ping-Pong table, bicycle, all manner of kids' games and board games. Plenty of reading material for grownups - and WiFi, but no cable. Note: there is no A/C which was only a problem on the one day it got about 90 degrees, house was very hot and humid that day - otherwise open windows at night cooled the place down quickly. We LOVED the hot tub, kiddos spent every morning in there while I made breakfast on the restaurant-style waffle maker - just make sure somebody knows how to add chemicals/chlorine etc... or that you specifically contact Brenda about doing this. Property was in a great location - private but not ridiculously far from anything - Whitefish was just a few miles on back roads, and just a couple miles to the Super1 Grocery. This house is stocked with sugar/spice/etc... - for real, there were spices and such stocked in the cupboards - nice if you don't want to buy everything.

Bait and switch- catfish advertising

Bait and switch. We were so excited to stay in this beautiful country home in the first 3 pictures of the advertisment during our families glacier national trip. But surprise we're actually staying at the dated and ugly brown box next door! We had long travel day and arrived late. Google maps took us down a scary driveway that looked like a scene from a scary movie. It was hard to see the address from the road at night. Once we did find it we realized we'd been duped and another family was staying in the house we thought we'd paid for. We didn't complain because it was late and we wanted to focus on the positives. Our interactions so far with The owner we're bad The owner left a passive aggressive voicemail about check in being 4pm and demanding to know when we'd be there. We called back and grew concerned with the owners statement about leaving the other property alone? They had unlocked the door and left the key there. This check in process made us feel unsafe and rushed. Why did you need our arrival time we're on vacation! Every other VRBo we've stayed at has had a code door or lock box. The house rules: 3 bullet points about washing your self and your feet or you'll be charged extra for using the hot tub, rude. Speaking of rude. The rules stated: "Please wash and dry all towels, no need to fold." my family is on vacation we will not be doing your house keeping!!! Inside the layout was weird. You had to Walk through 1 bedroom to get to the next. The toilets had pantry doors on them that did not give privacy. The house came with a cabin for the 4th bedroom but we could only get the closet light to turn on. None of the other lights worked so some of our party ended up sleeping on the uncomfortable couch in the living room. The listing states it has AC. It doesn't really. The upstairs has 1 unit that doesn't cool the downstairs at all. Speaking of upstairs it smelled musty and we were concerned about mold. The upstairs shower head was broken spraying water everywhere. Infact the owner texted us basically accusing us of breaking it! This place was so run down we we're shocked. The couch had a wooden board it. All the bedding and towels just felt old, thankfully they were clean. The kitchen had 1 frying pan which made cooking breakfast for 6 take forever!!! We picked it cuz it looked nice, had 4 bedrooms and a hot tub. The 3 person hotub was the only thing that turned out to be real and not old or in disrepair.

Thumbs up

If you absolutely gotta put a bunch of people in a house, get a house with a hot-tub. And an efficient kitchen. And the big rec-room is a nice touch. In fact, just stay here. This place is good.

Visit to Glacier National Park

Perfect place for our family to stay while we visited Glacier National Park! We loved the hot tub, fire pit and outdoor play area. The house was clean and spacious. Brenda came and checked us in and was willing to give us good restaurant recommendations. The fenced in back yard was wonderful for our dog. Our young grandchildren loved the toys in the garage! It was a great place for our family to gather!

One of our Best stays!!!

Beautiful home and very well decorated in outdoors mountain fashion. Large living area quite adequate for our 6 with many beds. Outdoor patio, hot tub and BBQ areas were perfect. Flower garden that adjoins the patio is host to 10-12 Humming Birds that after a week were not so camera shy. Game Room area in the garage was perfect for the younger adults with ping pong and card tables. Hosts were very nice and enjoyed visiting with them. We felt fortunate that they took our reservation.

Excellent Rental

We stayed with our friends at this rental for a few nights .It was neat and clean and the property is set in the woods with a nice jacuzzi and pond in the backyard. We watched deer grazing through the windows.The kids loved walking around on the property. The host was very friendly and accommodating ! The kitchen was well equipped. One thing I want to point out is that this a 3 bedroom and not a 4 bedroom. Upstairs is a big room which has 3 beds. Downstairs are 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with a bunk bed.

Great house(s), great location, great owner

This place is awesome! There is the possibility of adding a second house and a cabin located in the same footprint which we took full advantage of for our 25 person family reunion that included folks from 3 years to 68 years old. The beautifully appointed main house with plenty of space and everything we could think of needing was only exceeded by the beauty of the wooded setting and 2 onsite ponds. There was fuzzball, pin pong, volleyball court, stair stepper, board games and every cooking utensil, spice, or food prep item we could ever ask for. All needed services located closely nearby and owner just the right mix of helpful but not at all bothersome, in fact we all enjoyed their infrequent visits. Despite being so close to the absolutely gorgeous Glacier National Park, we also spent a lot of time enjoying local restaurants, zip lines, horseback riding, boating, local distillery and the Huckleberry pies and shakes. Damn they are good. The biking, hiking and views of mountains and lakes, and rivers, and waterfalls inside the park was awe inspiring and should not be missed. Montana is beautiful and we are already planning a return trip.

Fantastic property in a great location

Nestled just north of Columbia Falls and a 10 minute drive east of Whitefish, this property has a fantastic location. 10 of us stayed here for New Years (late 20's/early 30's). With lots of beds, it fit our mix of couples and singles, and had plenty of flexibility for sleeping arrangements. That said, there is not much privacy/sound control as it is very open concept through the main home. Put your early-to-bed people in the cabin and they will thank you for it later. After you're done skiing at Big Mountain (skiwhitefish dot com) just 20 minutes away, there's no need to leave this property. There's a ping pong table and a hot tub and lots of games in the cupboards. We were well entertained, had our privacy, and had a blast hanging out in the (warm) garage, finding out who the best ping pong player was of the group. Sadly, it wasn't me. The only word of caution would be to budget a little extra for cleaning, as the owner is meticulous and the cleaning fee doesn't account for the high standards. You will receive the property spotless: you will also pay to ensure it remains that way. In particular, we were dinged for a filter replacement to the hot tub - something I have never been charged with before through all of my stays (even with large parties). Factor it into the budget, but don't let it dissuade you from staying here.

Great house with a graceous hostess

We'd a big family reunion and stayed at this property in July 2016. The house was perfect for our group that had kids to grand parents. The garage is well furnished not only with cots but also recreational activities (Ping pong table, board games) - the teenagers in our group had a blast. The kitchen was well stocked and had all kind of pots/pans for us to prepare large meals. The large bath tub outside was great to relax after an active day in the Glacier NP. The best part was the our hostess who was very responsive. When our guest count increased more than expected, she graceusly provided an extra cottage and portable toilet. Overall, it was the best stay for our vacation and I would recommend this to anyone visiting the area.
