✨ Glacier Getaway with Breathtaking River & Mountain Views | Minutes from Park ✨
Welcome to a peaceful, well-appointed home in Columbia Falls with views that will take your breath away and a location that couldn’t be better for exploring Glacier National Park.
Whether you're sipping your morning coffee on the massive deck as the sun rises over the mountains or winding down with a glass of wine under a sky full of stars, this is the kind of place guests say they never want to leave.
🛏 Sleeps 6+ Comfortably
Spacious, cozy, and impeccably clean, this home features multiple sleeping options and thoughtful touches throughout. Guests consistently mention how “comfortable,” “well-stocked,” and “welcoming” the space feels — many say it feels like borrowing a friend’s home.
🍽 Fully Equipped Chef’s Kitchen
Cook a full meal with ease — the kitchen has everything from spices to sharp knives, plenty of pots, pans, utensils, a huge fridge, and even labeled cabinets for convenience. Guests love how ready the house is for longer stays or group meals.
📍 Ideal Location
Nestled in a quiet, scenic neighborhood just minutes from downtown Columbia Falls, you’re a short drive to Glacier’s West Entrance and Whitefish. Many guests say it was the perfect basecamp for day trips to GNP, Flathead Lake, and even East Glacier.
🌄 Unmatched Views & Outdoor Living
The giant private deck is the highlight of nearly every review — overlooking the river and mountains, with regular visits from deer, turkeys, and hummingbirds. Guests call it “unreal,” “magical,” and “the best Airbnb deck ever.” There’s plenty of outdoor seating to relax, dine, or stargaze — and yes, we provide a telescope for nighttime skywatching.
🎁 Extras & Amenities Galore
From bear spray and hiking guides to Bluetooth speakers, coolers, extra towels, laundry supplies, board games, and even local snacks — we stock the house with all the “little extras” you might not expect but will absolutely appreciate.
💬 Superb Hosting
You’ll have support every step of the way — our communication is fast, friendly, and personal. Many guests mention how cared for they felt before, during, and after their stay. We even provide local recommendations and help with early check-ins or late check-outs when possible.
🕵️ Make your stay unforgettable with our in-house escape room-style experience. Solve puzzles and find hidden clues, adding fun and excitement to your visit. This interactive adventure is ideal for guests of all ages, providing a unique and enjoyable experience. Dive into the mystery and discover the surprises that await. Get ready for a unique and unforgettable stay!
*Important Note: While the river provides a stunning backdrop, we do not advertise direct river access from the property for safety reasons. We’re happy to guide you to safe, nearby public access points.
