Bright and cheerful. With glorious sunrise/sunset views, close to Glacier park.

COLUMBIA MOUNTAIN GLORY is a cheerful and Bright, peaceful and quiet stand alone house with wide open spaces, in the countryside, with the beautiful Columbia mountains right in front of the house with glorious sunrise and sunset views from a big deck. It is very close to the town of Columbia falls and not far from the city of Kalispell, whitefish, Big fork . GLACIER NATIONAL PARK, AIRPORT, hiking/ biking/ kayaking , water park, zip lines, gift shops, restaurants and other hot tourist spots are close by. You are pampered with soft luxurious comfy beds with air conditioning of all the bedrooms, kitchen and living rooms. BREAKFAST ITEMS are provided like bread,butter, jam, cereals, milk and orange juice or Apple juice, COFFEE and TEA. We now serve FARM FRESH EGGS from our own free ranging chickens ( No roosters). Oil for cooking, salt, pepper, sugar, spices, condiments and much more are all provided. The side by side fridge is spacious. Laundry detergent and dish detergent is provided too. We have installed a water filtration system and now offer great tasting never ending supply of Reverse Osmosis water. WE PROVIDE ONE BEAR SPRAY TOO. aha! Additional bear spray will be provided by request and will cost $15 only. There is parking for 5 or more Vehicles, a spacious patio with furniture, BBQ grill and a fire pit. We do have all the necessary requisites for outdoor bbq like charcoal, lighting fluid and wood for the fire pit. Do make use of all the amenities provided. This year we have changed our internet provider and upgraded our speed from 10mb to the maximum speed of 50mb available in our area. The only addition done to our place this past year is building a garage to the south of the stand alone house. We have built a red wood picket fence and a chain link fence around the property to give additional privacy to our house guests and add some layer of protection. The house is surrounded by 1.5 acres of open wide grasslands on the South, West and North side of the house. The East side is the parking area ( towards the Mountains). We are aware that you are on vacation and so don’t want to burden you with unnecessary rules or cleaning instructions. Feel free to call us for any questions. Please do read our manual that will instruct you where the lights switches are, good places to hike and different restaurants near by to eat at, and for any emergency telephone numbers you might need. We hope our guests have a restful and relaxing day at this peaceful and cozy home especially after an eventful day of hiking or biking or visiting our beautiful mountains and lakes.

    We were looking for a base to go hiking in Yellowstone. We found the ideal location in Gardiner. The apartment was perfect for our needs . The host, Marie, was extremely helpful and accommodating. There was absolutely nothing we didn’t like . Pretty sure we’ll try to book there again if we come this way in the future .

    We thorougly enjoyed our stay here!! The home is lovely, with everything you need to make your stay comfortable from tolietries, fresh linens, extra towels, information about how to use everything in the home and local recommendations for activities and restaurants. It is also close to the national park and restaurants, grocery store and gas stations. We had the pleasure of meeting the hosts Gary and Christina, they are very kind and welcoming. The farm fresh eggs from their chickens they provided us were delicious! When we come back to Glacier National Park we will definitely stay here again and we highly recommend it to others visiting the area!!
