Just after the entrance to Glacier National Park there is a small path leading out on a rock formation that provides incredible views of the mountain scape across the lake. We thought we would be able to take the Going To The Sun Road through the park, but it’s opening was delayed (it was already the middle of May) due to a late thaw and portions of the road were still covered in snow. This little overlook, only a short walk past the gate, was perfect after having driven over an hour out of the way to drive through the park. #mountains #nationalparks #roadtrip

St. Mary, Many Glacier, Waterton area cabin

5/5 Excellent

Cutest & comfortable cabin

"We stayed at many places during our travels but not one as comfortable & remote as this one. Looking at it from the outside you really can’t judge it - the inside is as cute & comfortable as can be with a beautiful view of the mountains & close to the park. Try it, you’ll love it!"

Elk Willows Home -Wildlife & Breathtaking Views-Minutes to Glacier East Entrance

5/5 Excellent

15 Minutes to Many Glacier

"Stayed at the Elk Willows home. Perfect for me and my husband. Well stocked kitchen, full sized washer / dryer, super comfortable king size bed, good quality bath towels, loved the soaker tub - after full hiking days it was a blessing. The caretakers, Cheyenne and Andrew were awesome! Very friendly and outgoing. Our rental car had a low tire and they met us at the shop on the ranch and allowed my husband to use the air compressor to air the tire up! We would stay here again in a minute! We brought all of our groceries on the west side and cooked every single night. Highly recommend staying here, the big sky views are beautiful."

Wagon Wheel Home - Majestic Mountain Views - 15 Minutes to Glacier East Entrance

5/5 Excellent

Serenity

"Very quaint and private cabin on a ranch. You wake up to alpacas roaming outside your window! The provided shower soap was very nice. Water and heater worked well. Don't forget to bring cooking oil if you plan to cook. Only downside was the beds were pretty uncomfortable. "
