Glacier National Park West Entrance - beat the traffic into GNP

This custom home only one mile from the west entrance to Glacier National Park has 2,600 sq. ft of living space and an enormous outside deck with patio furniture and extra chairs and fun firepit with wood included. Fully licensed by the State of Montana as a Public Accommodation meeting all health standards. Three large bedrooms with upstairs loft as the 4th bedroom and three and a half bathrooms with lots of room. Each floor has its own full bath, so perfect for 3 couples to have their own floor. There are DVDs, books, games, TV and Wi-fi to make you feel at home and plenty of cookware and kitchen items.
Stunning views of the Rocky Mountains in Glacier National Park and less than one mile from the village of West Glacier where you can do grocery shopping, dine out, go souvenir shopping, eat ice cream, play mini-golf, go rafting or drive into Glacier National Park. Golfing is also right down the road about 1/3 of a mile.
Upstairs room has queen bed and one full-size bed and full bath and mountain viewing area with TV and DVD player.
Main level has fire place, kitchen, family room, master bedroom with king bed, full bathroom with jacuzzi tub and walk in shower, powder room and large deck with BBQ and tables to eat outside, firepit for the smore's, and everything you need to make yourself at home.
Downstairs has another family room with two bedrooms - one with queen bed and couch sitting area and another bedroom with queen bed. Full bath, washer and dryer and outside access to yard and firepit area.
Quality construction throughout, solid core doors, very comfortable, cozy beds and very quiet and lots of extra space.
This property is in an exclusive subdivision and there are neighbors nearby, so no loud parties or large groups please. Parking is limited to 6 cars and no parking on county road (Sloan Lane) or on Wild River Drive (private drive) is allowed. Solid core doors and extra insulation provides excellent sound proofing and guests can stay on 3 different floors and have their own bathroom. New windows, siding, air conditioning and 6-ft Whirpool/AirBath/Jacuzzi tub in the primary suite and walk-in tiled shower. Lots of firewood available for the firepit since we've been doing tree trimming to cut down on fire season dangers.

What a fantastic stay!!

The home’s location is superb & is outfitted with everything you need for an outstanding stay. You’re @ 5 minutes from the GNP gate and around the corner from Belton Chalet (fabulous dinner spot). The house is clean, comfortable & spacious. Full bath upstairs, full bath & powder room on the main floor & a full bath downstairs shared by 2 rooms. We had a hummingbird exploring off the back deck while enjoying the peace & quiet. Two big thumbs up!!

Perfect for Glacier National Park visits!

Excellent property! Very comfortable and well appointed in all aspects: living areas, bedrooms, laundry and kitchen. Being situated just short drive (or walk) from the West Glacier entrance made it ideal for park activities. We would reccommend this listing for anyone visiting the Glacier area!

Nice house and property.

A very nice house with a nice large deck. The house was really stocked with nice items and the beds were comfortable. I liked the quiet out on the deck a lot. Had visitors of deer in the back yard. Being so close to the park entrance was helpful in getting early starts to beat crowds in the park. We will book this again.

Excellent Property

The proximity to Glacier, responsiveness of the owner and the quality of the property rates a solid 5!!! A large house with sitting areas on all floors. The place was clean, and everything worked!! Beds and pillows could use an upgrade, but that is all I can find to mention! Thanks Dawn!

Perfect Home for GNP Visit

This house is great - just the right size for my family get-together, and in the perfect location for daily outings into Glacier National Park. The back deck was wonderful, and we spent every sunset sitting there admiring the view, the weather and re-hashing the day. We'll have so many wonderful memories of this trip. Dawn was a great host. She answered all of our questions promptly and made the whole rental experience a positive one.

Just minutes from the entrance to the park. Very clean and well stocked with kitchen items. Dawn and family were very responsive and informative. Views of mountains were limited due to tree growth which was out of the owner's control.

Fantastic Stay

This is quite possibly the most nicely appointed property among all the beach and ski condos we've ever stayed in. The kitchen is clearly the most fully equipped blenders fry pans baking dishes immersion blenders everything you could possibly want. On top of that the deck is absolutely to die for! Dawn is very reachable and easy to communicate with and helpful in a variety of suggestions about the area. Would definitely recommend staying here and we would stay again.

Great family house!

2 parents, 3 ‘kids’ plus a significant other= 6 adults in this amazing house!! All had their own space to sleep, enough bathrooms for privacy, the kitchen had everything we needed to complete our hearty, pre-hike breakfasts, the deck was great place to hang playing games and enjoying the view and the fire pit helped light up the night sky! Also loved the cd collection!!

Great Stay in West Glacier

We had a great vacation at Dawn's home in West Glacier. Everything was as described (or better). The house is very spacious with great views from the deck. Our boys loved having the downstairs all to themselves, each with their own bedroom. Everything is updated and new. Dawn was very helpful with suggestions and check in was a breeze. We will be back.

Amazing property with an even better location!

The most amazing location you will find! Our family of three pre-teens, and my husband and I loved this place. We had two empty beds and a bathroom we never even used. The photos do not do this place justice. We enjoyed the blackout shades the day we wanted to sleep in. The area is super quiet and relaxing. The host is thoughtful and provided plenty of towels, bedding, and paper products. We definitely recommend you book this place. Location Location Location! Don’t wait an hour in the Glacier entrance line. Book here and be right at the entrance.

What at amazing house so close to Glacier National Park… The house was clean and had everything we needed for the week concerning amenities. It also had Bear Spray which was appreciated but not needed. Dawn (property owner) contacted me days beforehand to give me a run down and was very helpful. The bathrooms were newly renovated. Beds were very comfortable. Did I mention the location? West Glacier is less than 4 minutes away (highly recommend the Belton Chalet for dinner). Only downside was that we were unable sit in the yard (fire pit) since it hadn’t been mowed. Highly recommend this place! Very spacious….

A perfect location for visiting GLacier National Park

The house was perfect for our group of six, although it sleeps many more than that. It was very well stocked, clean, comfortable and only two minutes from the West entrance to the park. The West Glacier village is even closer with convenience store, restaurant, coffee shop, bar, outfitter and post office. The house is in a beautiful, quiet area. The owner Dawn, was so gracious to update the DirecTV channels, so we could watch our favorite college team play football!! Everything was perfect!
