Great ace

Was very convenient but just outside of town. Saw several deer in the yard by the hot tub each evening. Nice trails that connect close the property where we spotted numerous deer. Nice place and no issues with our stay. Would recommend to others.

Perfect Christmas Get-Away

We were looking for a place to spend a quiet family Christmas in the snow and this cabin really delivered! It was a quick drive to the adorable downtown, snowmobiling in the mountains, and skiing. There is hiking and snowshoeing to be done around the cabin. And of course we loved the cozy cabin for boardgames, relaxing, and hanging in the hot tub! The hosts were easy to communicate with and the whole experience was just magical. Highly recommend this property.

Quaint comfortable cabin in the woods but close to town

The house was nice and well stocked. Two minor things that should be corrected soon for the listing, change the coffee maker description as it is no longer a Keurig and update VRBO checkin info with the correct front door code. Also, the drip coffee maker needs to be cleaned. We would definitely stay again if in the area.

Great log cabin in the woods. Very nicely decorated and clean. Outside to hang out on. Close to the

Spent the majority of our time hiking and biking on both local Whitefish trails and in Glacier National Park. Decent kitchen for making simple but delicious meals. Saw a bear run through the property! Made the right decision to wait to buy bear spray to see if any was at the cabin, there were 8 cans. That’s my heads up for future renters. We had 10 beautiful days at this lovely cabin

Cabin in the woods

Wonderful location that felt like it was deep in the woods but less than two miles from Whitefish. Cabin needed some extra cleaning, but owner was very responsive to our needs. Provided everything we needed for our extended stay and we were sorry to leave. We really enjoyed watching the wildlife from the deck. Be aware that the gravel driveway is a little challenging for a passenger car and there is little room for garbage in the house. We got used to both.

Great property, great location

The property appeared to have been recently remodeled. It was very clean and appropriately furnished. The kitchen was well supplied, as well as, the bathrooms. There were plenty of nice towels and a washer and dryer for laundry. We saw deer in the yard everyday and turkeys one day during our stay. The location was perfect for us as we had functions in Kalispell, Whitefish, and Glacier National Park. If we are fortunate enough to ever return to the area we would definitely stay at this property!! The only recommendation we would make is that an outdoor, animal-proof, receptacle for trash be added.

Well appointed property ❤️

The VRBO pictures do not lie. My family of 4 was very comfortable in this home. Hubs and I took the loft that has seating and tv to ourselves. Our son and daughter each took a bedroom and shared the downstairs bathroom. If you need to get up during the night, mind the stairs from the loft to use the bathroom off the kitchen for shower and toilet. We recommend leaving a light on for navigating! Our son loved using the hot tub, and I the washer/dryer! I am coming home withvery little laundry to do. We rented UTVs 3 times during the week. We were dirty and dusty. The laundry room was a blessing. Couches, mattresses, and other seating were all very comfy. We had an active week, so dozing off somewhere besides the bed was not uncommon. The kitchen has all tools, utensils, etc… everything felt brand new. There was bear spray, bug spray, an iron and board, mop, etc…in the hallway’s closet. We would have utilized a few beach towels, if available, as we went to Whitefish City Beach and used the bathroom ones. Didn’t affect anything as I was doing at least 1 wash load each day. I was in touch with the owners a few times during the week as visits to the property were needful - a check on the hot tub, the trash was taken to the curb, nothing major and no issues with regard to our stay there. We enjoyed seeing wild turkey families, fawns, does, and bucks, and sweet little birds visit the property. There is a wrap around porch to enjoy these visitors. The property is approximately 1.5 miles from Whitefish center. Enjoy renting this lovely place! Thank you, Rob and family!
