The lodge is cute/adorable located in a wooded area. It was very quiet. The rooms were spacious. Breakfast was good with enough options. The location was close to the west entrance to Glacier NP.

Great location though a little tough to find the first time. Gravel parking lot plenty of room. Quiet area secluded from major road. Very close to West Glacier Village. Great staff always helpful with info and responsive to requests. Breakfast each day was on time and lots of options. Would definitely stay again!

We absolutely loved this lodge. It's super close to the entrance of West Glacier Park, but set back far enough from the highway that's it's completely quiet and peaceful. The room had everything we needed, a mini fridge, toiletries, coffee maker, etc. and the lobby has a really good breakfast and coffee in the morning. Check in was a breeze and Brian was great. Our room had a lovely little patio and there's chairs to sit outside and drink your coffee while listening to the birds. Highly recommend this for a stay in Glacier!

This is the perfect place to stay when visiting Glacier National Park. It is very close to the West Glacier park entrance, yet it is nestled up in the woods in a quiet, beautiful location. The property is very clean and the beds are quite comfortable. Breakfast has a wide assortment every morning and great coffee. There is an electric fireplace in the room to be used for heat in cooler weather. It was so welcoming in mid-May. I would definitely stay here again.
