September in Columbia Falls
Cute little bungalow for spouse and myself and stayed 3 nights for the Glacier NP leg of our trip. It was around a 20 minute drive to Glacier NP. We enjoyed being greeted every morning by the neighborhood cats when we walked to the River Edge Park path. Home was conveniently located near grocery store, gas stations, and coffee shops. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Good location, would not rent again
First I'd like to say I REALLY appreciate properties that allow pets. This one has a fully fenced back yard which was fantastic for our dog. The location is convenient to necessary shopping and to Glacier. There's a nice city park across the street. Still, I would not stay at this property again because the home has a very musty smell in it. So strong that I could smell it coming out the screen door when sitting on the deck. I know I have a very sensitive sense of smell and clearly many people either can't smell it or are not bothered by it based on all the reviews I read before renting it. Other reviews mentioned the bed. Nothing appears to have changed with that. It's uncomfortable and very noisy. The pillows are hard and flat. We actually left a day early because of these issues.

Charming cozy house in the perfect location
We truly had the best time in Montana. This house is great for dogs, the backyard is perfect. We walked to the house/river and walked to the downtown area for drinks/food. I even walked to the Yoga Hive classes for the week we stayed. It's pretty close to Glacier, you'll have to drive unless you stay in the park. It's in the middle to Flathead Lake (our winner of the trip to swim in the Summer). And close to Whitefish which has cute shopping and restaurants. The hosts were responsive and the house was well stocked. Enjoy your Montana adventure at a home away from home!

Lovely base for Glacier National Park exploration!
We enjoyed our time at the house, which was right next to a neighborhood park with great walking paths. We spent a week enjoying Glacier National Park. It is about a 25 minute drive to the Apgar Visitor Center and the start of the Going-To-The-Sun road. The house is well set up for a couple and had everything we needed.

Loved staying at the Glacier Bungalow
It was convenient to West Glacier entrance, grocery store, and to restaurants. The place was very clean with a well-stocked kitchen for cooking. The grill was also great - we ate outside every night. We would recommend this place and would stay here again when visiting the area.

Perfect Location
Property was exactly as described. Proximity to Glacier was great! It was the perfect place to relax after a long day of hiking. The only recommendation we have is to update the bed and pillows. Backslope Brweing and North Fork Pizza were great options for food!

Comfortably Convenient to Glacier NP and Whitefish
Clean updated interior was small but perfect size for 2 adults and our dog. Well stocked with necessities made our stay easy. Short drive to hikes in Whitefish area and GNP. Fenced in back yard and steps away from a park was great for the dog. Quiet neighborhood. Would stay again!

Perfect!
This little bungalow was the perfect retreat for my husband and I while we toured Glacier. Kristi was the perfect host with everything in place for us, we really appreciated not having to worry about anything. Her husband came by to check on us and he gave us a few great tips on hikes that he recommended and encouraged the boat tour ; we took his advice and it was fantastic - so glad we went (St. Mary's Lake). The neighborhood is quiet and safe and only 25 minutes to the entrance to Glacier. The town of Columbia Falls is very cute with many restaurants to enjoy. We ate twice at the Mexican restaurant and enjoyed great food and margarita's! We are GF and we were surprised to find a local pizza place that served GF pizza and it was really good. One night we wanted a home cooked meal so we used the grill and sat out on the deck and ate. Highly recommend this VRBO.

Nice place and area
Property was nice and as described. Owners were responsive and communicative. Only gave a 4 because there were some wasp nests I informed them about that didn’t get taken care of by the owners and I had to do it myself. Close to glacier, whitefish, local trails and amenities.

Excellent stay!
My husband, myself and our pup stayed at this property for a vacation in the mountains. This cozy cabin was clean and quiet. It was located within walking distance to some great trails to walk through by the river. The fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. The owners were easy to reach and left lots recommendations for local places to eat and things to do. Would highly recommend!

Mostly great with a few picky things
The good: very clean, great location, very quiet neighborhood with park right next door. You could walk to downtown eateries if you can manage one short hill. We were in Glacier all day and this place was a comfortable base camp. The picky downsides: if you plan to grill, make sure there is propane well in advance of your meal. We made this mistake after returning from a long hike and no time to ask for propane. Grill was kind of dusty too. Although there is hand soap and dish soap, there were no other bath products. Surprised because even cheap hotels provide that. I'd stay here again.

House was perfect for what we needed and wanted. Extremely close to Glacier National Park, and downtown Columbia Falls. There's also a park within 5 minutes of walking, that has rushing water, mountains and a beautiful view for sunrises. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

Great place overall, a little tough with young family though.
We actually bumped into the property owner as we arrived a bit early. Super helpful with recommendations regarding Glacier park entrance and activities in the area. Nice little walking path and garden right down the road as well as a park around the corner. House size was perfect as a base camp for a couple of days as you're out exploring. Only complaint was the bed. As we had 2 small children that were staying in the room with us the bed was uncomfortable and really squeaky which disrupted everyone's rest but overall it was a nice little place.
