About this property

Entire place

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

Teakettle Kottage

Little house near the center of Columbia Falls. 16 miles from the west entrance of Glacier National Park and only 35 miles to Polebridge. YOU DO NOT NEED GLACIER PARK RESERVATIONS IF you enter the park before 6:00 am or if you visit the park after 5:30 pm. Fenced yard, pets are negotiable! Off street parking. Enjoy a fire at night and barbeque to your hearts content. This quaint little home will welcome you with open arms after an exhausting day of breathtaking sights that Glacier Park has to offer. Other sleeping arrangements are available upon request. The fruit trees will be abundant with fruit around August and we suggest picking as many plums as you desire. Walking distance to eateries and local pubs for those late evenings returning from the park. Columbia Falls is located fairly close to the train tracks so expect a train to be hitting its horn at all times of the day!
Please let me know if you're bringing pets! A small refundable pet deposit of $125 is required. There could be other guests on the premisis at the same time so please be friendly!

The owner works for Glacier National Park in the St. Mary district of the park so feel free to ask any questions regarding road conditions and park information.

Perfect spot for my husband and I to explore Glacier and the surrounding area. I would stay here again. Don’t miss the cherry ice cream at Farm to Table which is within walking distance from the room. Gunsight Saloon is also very cool and within walking distance.

Really loved staying there! Could have used a couple more towels and some small glasses/wine glasses in the kitchen. Didn't know we were sharing the backyard with another cabin but it didn't become an issue. Perfect location for doing things at glacier and loved the quiet town and how walkable the location was to groceries, saloon, and park. Would definitely go back

Convenient, clean stay

We had a great stay here, and the host was very flexible and allowed us to extend our stay by a day. No bugs seen as some other reviews have mentioned, and there’s some train noise but nothing unmanageable. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Cozy and great location!

The Kottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location is fantastic! We had our bicycles which made getting around town a breeze. I would recommend to anyone that want to be close to the park without the crowds of Whitefish.

Cozy and ideal location!

The kottage was very clean and had everything we needed! Washer/dryer was a huge plus, as we only packed carry-ons for the week. Neighborhood had some good food options and we were pretty close to the park’s West entrance. There are railroad tracks nearby that trains frequently use, but the hosts provide a box fan and a sound machine that made it easy to sleep! Great stay!

One of our fave stays!

A little afraid to write a review because if more people realize what a GEM this place is, I’m afraid it’ll be unavailable when we want to book it next time! :) This week was our second time here and it’s the only place we ever want to stay in Columbia Falls! Super cute, excellent location, clean, perfect for a couple and pups. We just checked out today and are already looking at dates for next year!

Walking distance to downtown. New to the area, the neighborhood felt a bit neglected. Property itself was nice. The train is very close and passes by frequently.

This is a cute little place. It’s very neat, tidy, and clean. As a solo traveler with a dog, it was so nice to have a fenced in yard for my dog to enjoy. Only 15 miles from GNP and 1.5 hours from Canadian border. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Little Gray Cottage

We loved this little home and everything thing about it. It was the perfect size for us and we enjoyed our stay here for four nights. We washe clothes and used the heat because we had cold nights because of the cold, wet weather. It was very cozy. Our dogs loved the back yard. We recommend this little cottage to anyone looking for a place to stay. It is close enough to Glacier Park to drive and and we enjoyed the restaurants in Columbia Falls.

Cozy

The teakettle kottage was close to everything. The cabinets are well stocked. The checking process was easy, we did not stay in the room very much, we were out exploring the park and other nearby towns. Will stay here again if we get to come back.

Situated perfectly

In town for a bike race in Whitefish and exploring Glacier. This location was perfectly situated for accessing both locations and the perfect size for 1-2 adults. Kitchen space is a little tight but can make do. And of course there is the train but you get used to it. All in all a great stay and would come back.

great base for exploring west side of Glacier NP

Teakettle Kabin was great! Very comfortable, well-provisioned kitchen (including basics like oil and spices - no more bland meals at a rental!), nice outdoor space. Quiet neighborhood but less than 10-minute walk to a full supermarket, several great restaurants and bars. Really convenient location for exploring the west side of Glacier NP and other beautiful parks and towns in the area. Ignore comments about bugs (saw grand total of one spider in 9 days) and the train (much quieter than the dryer, which was not loud), it's not the Ritz but it's really a lovely place.

Too many trains

Reviews warned of train traffic. For some it may not matter. But for us it did. Many trains with many loud horn blowing. I should have paid more attention to reviews. But it did send us to Watertown Canada for a couple of the nites. Unlikely to have gone otherwise and we really enjoyed that.
