House was beautiful and well maintained. Quiet location close to town and close enough to Glacier National Park. Hot tub a definite plus after hiking in the park or just to relax. Property managers were prompt to answer any questions and very friendly. We had a great stay, everything was perfect.
My niece and nephew and I were able to enjoy surrounding locations with ease of having a home base. The home offered privacy and gave us the vacation we needed. Thank you for the ease and comfort provided to us.
Goat Trail Lookout was the best VRBO stay we have had so far. The house had everything we needed; everything worked as it should; and we slept like babies in the very comfortable beds. Unlike other stays, there were plenty of paper products and everything you could need in the kitchen. The house even had an air fryer, which was very handy for feeding our toddler niece. It served as the perfect base camp for our daily outings and a great place to relax in the evenings. We highly recommend this rental and Lakeshore Rentals.
This home provided the perfect place for our stay in the Flathead Valley. We came to visit family and participate in a Lacrosse tournament. The location was perfect as it was central to all of the activities and it was a beautiful space for us to stay. Everything we needed was available in the house and we had a very comfortable stay there.
We didn’t know what to expect when we arrived and once we stepped in the home we felt like we were secluded. Whitefish was amazing as well and we’ll definitely be returning to this home in the future. Amazing retreat.
Such a clean and comfortable property to come back to after 15 mile hikes each day. Quiet neighborhood. Caretakers were courteous and took care of needs in timely fashion.
Place was super nice at forst glance a couplemthings were off but nothing big hot tub was hot beds were comfy lots of cleani.g supplies and extras for the stay . Lots of spices and extra things that id forgot and helped inna pinch such as syrup and a little sugar . I would reccomend this place to anyone with plans to whitefish super quiet neighborhood
Great place to stay! Very clean & spacious - loved the fire pit out back & the puzzle! Furniture super comfortable which was sooooo great after long days skiing. Great location too - easy to get to town, ski & snowmobiling. And we had daily visits from the local deer. Only thing I didn't love was the closeness of neighbors - I thought it was on a lager lot but I probably mis-read the description. Never saw any neighbors but you're definitely in a neighborhood (not a bad thing at all). Great place & super well-stocked with provisions (very mush appreciated).
Lovely clean space for rest and relaxation. We were there to hike, not ski, but very easily accessible to skiing. Less than an hour to West Glacier, about four hours to East Glacier. Perfectly quick and convenient to grocery, restaurants, shops. Beds were very comfortable and there were PLENTY of towels, which was so appreciated! The hot tub was a big plus and the firepit was great for evenings. The house was immaculate. Great stay. We would highly recommend it. For anyone with physical disability, be aware that the main/large bedroom and bath are on the main floor but two other bedrooms and bath are down a flight of somewhat steep stairs. We had no issues, but older folks might.
Enjoyed the spacious house for a ski trip. Had everything in the house to start having fun right away including a well equipped kitchen, hot tub, comfortable bedrooms and clean bathrooms. Quick drive to the ski slopes but away from the chaos.
This was a perfect size for our family of four. Upgraded finishes and newer amenities throughout the home. Loved seeing the sunrise from patio!

This house and property management company were a dream.
This house and property management company were a dream. The home exceeded our expectations in cleanliness and comfort. The open floor plan, well-stocked kitchen and large balcony with a sprawling view of trees made for the perfect mountain getaway. We will absolutely be back. The home housed 6 adults comfortably and we had a wonderful time enjoying the amenities. Your team members were so wonderful in responding to our questions and being flexible when we requested early check in. Very enjoyable to work with!

Despite a few hindrances loved the property and access to things we came to do.
Despite a few hindrances loved the property and access to things we came to do. It might prove helpful to explain about back/alley access to the house-was kind of confusing at first. Always a pleasing and helpful staff have used your company at least twice now
Beautiful home with peaceful deck in quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed daily visits from the neighborhood turkeys and deer. :)
We enjoyed cooking family meals and winding down after hiking in Glacier National Park! Short drive into Whitefish for groceries, restaurants and activities. Looking forward to our next visit!
