We loved every minute of our stay here - the Lodge is an amazing and historic building that is very impressive inside and out. TJ the bartender was super fun and friendly, as were all the staff we interacted with. Dinner at Buchanan's was exquisite ... we can't wait to come back!

We enjoyed our stay. The only thing I would have liked to have seen was a coffee maker in the room and being able to watch Fox News on the TV.

It was fine and relaxing.
However if we would have stayed in whitefish (vs in the mountains past whitefish) we would have had much better cell reception with Att
It was nice but in the summer there’s not much to do here on the property. Should have save the travel time and stayed in whitefish or Kalispell or any town closer to glacier NP

I wish it had an elevator. And I wish they would’ve told us we needed a reservation to go to the restaurant when we’re staying at that hotel.
