Dancing Bear Haus - Gorgeous Mountain Modern bet/ Glacier Nat’l Park & Whitefish

Enjoy this amazing, new construction, mountain modern home, with gorgeous views from every room. Secluded, wooded location just off of the North Fork Road, a scenic corridor with access to several areas of the majestic, incomparable Glacier National Park! The house is conveniently located 5 miles from Columbia Falls, and only 20 minutes from the beautiful mountain town of Whitefish.

Listed rates only apply to the upper level of this home, which sleeps six people. The lower level condo is also available for an additional fee of $50 per guest per night (with a minimum of $150 per night). The entire unit (upper and lower) sleeps 10 - 12 guests.

The lower level has separate access, and includes one bedroom, one bathroom, a living room, washer / dryer, and kitchen. The bedroom contains a bunkbed, with a full bed on bottom, twin bed on top. There is also a twin trundle bed that pulls out from under the full bed. The living room has a new, very comfortable queen sofa sleeper.

The lower level allows for up to six additional guests, but please note that it would be most comfortable for a couple adults with several kids. The lower level will not be rented out to a different guest / group while you are staying upstairs, nor can it be rented out by itself.

Dancing Bear Haus has three exterior cameras: one is by the gate at the entrance of the property; one is mounted above the garage door, pointing at the garage pad and up the driveway; the third camera is between the upper road and house, pointing at the back side of the house. There are no surveillance devices inside either level of the home. These exterior cameras are for security; however, we love to watch the wildlife that walks by as well.

INCREDIBLE property and location
This was THE most beautiful place we've ever stayed in, and we've rented executive villas in Florida, stayed in suites in the Plaza Hotel in Mew York, stayed at the Waldorf Astoria hotels in both New York and Chicago, and this place is better than all of them. Decorated to such a very, very high standard, by someone who clearly has excellent interior design taste. All of the little touches were fantastic, you spend the first hour in there finding something new to look and marvel at. It was extremely well equpped with everything a family needs for a very comfortable stay. Kitchen role, toilet role, washing liquid plus many other things all stocked up for us. I've never had a host do that before. The location in the middle of the woods is breathtaking. The raised balcony area outside the front door is a pleasure to sit on and enjoy the surroundings. We spent far more time in the house than we normally would because we just loved being in it. The hosts were perfect and communication was seamless. It is perfectly placed for access to the Glacier National Park, only about 20 minutes drove away, a MUST for any visitors to the area. Dancing Bear Haus will stay forever in our memories and we were all so sad to leave. We will definitely return over the next few years. Maybe Christmas? That would be wonderful to see.

Incredible Experience!
I'd give this house and the host 10 stars if I could. I stayed here with my wife, 4 year old son, and our 3 friends while we visited Glacier for our wedding. The house and the property are gorgeous, the house is clean, and well stocked with pretty much anything you could need - it feels like being home. The beds are super comfortable, there is tons of natural light, and Trevor is friendly, responsive and accommodating. We also loved, the park and the area, and we'll definitely be back.

Lovely Mountain Home
We felt right at home in this lovely house with its open layout and large windows. There were three nice bedrooms (one is a loft). The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. The forest views were beautiful and the deck was a relaxing place to hang out. It was nicely situated next to the West Glacier entrance as well as Whitefish and Columbia Falls. We all enjoyed ourselves - age ranges 5-63. Would highly recommend.

Glacier vacation
This was the perfect cabin for the vacation to Glacier National Park, Columbia Falls and Whitefish. The cabin has all the amenities you need, modern feel and was very comfortable. The location is remote, private and secure. We loved sitting on the large deck and relaxing. The owners were easy to access and were very courteous. We would definitely stay here again!

We fell in love with Montana! This house is perfectly located between glacier park and local life. We felt right at home from the second we walked in and thoroughly enjoyed every second. The property manager goes above and beyond to make sure our trip was unforgettable- thank you Trevor! We hope to return again because the views at glacier could never get old and can’t imagine a more perfect place to stay - Dancing Bear has it all!!!

Iconic! Magical! Relaxing!
What a beautiful home - this stay was beyond perfect. This house is clean and very well decorated. Spacious kitchen, multiple bathrooms, 3 bedrooms, super cozy furniture. It was well equipped for me and my friends to work when needed, & was also comfortable for a night in. The host is attentive and available, and the property is gorgeous. It’s up in the wilderness, so it felt secluded and serene. The perfect woodsy getaway. If you are coming from the airport, I recommend getting a rental car (easier to get around Montana in general). 5 stars, can’t wait to come back!

My friends and I stayed here for our first time in Montana. The house is in tip top shape and extremely clean. It had everything we need plus amazing views. We were in a great location that allowed us to explore the town and also venture to glacier national park. There were no issues at all. The hosts were so helpful and sweet too! Definitely worth the 5 stars.

Unmatched!!!
Dancing Bear Haus is amazing! It is unmatched in beauty and quality of everything from location to utensils. It was the perfect little escape in the woods. Close enough to town for easy access and close to all the outdoor activities you could hope for, but it feels like a far-off retreat in the woods. I stayed here for a little staycation getaway. It was so peaceful and beautiful! Truly a great place to rest and to call home-base for recreation. I did a lot of exploring around the area during my stay. I loved curling up near the fire in the evenings and waking up to enjoy my coffee while looking at the golden larches. The host was very responsive, kind, and professional. They made sure my stay was nothing short of amazing. The property is clearly well taken care of, and the gate gave me peace-of-mind for safety. If you are looking for a place to stay in this area - look no further! This is THE place.

Modern mountain retreat
The hosts were amazing. Very quick to respond and very kind. The house itself is beautiful and very clean, just as pictured/advertised. Kitchen was fully equipped and had top end appliances. The location was the best part, quiet and somewhat secluded (just what we wanted to disconnect), but only 20-25 minutes to anywhere local you want to go, i.e. GNP, grocery, downtown whitefish, airport, etc. Internet worked great along with the tv to watch football + movies. We plan to stay again!

Stunning Forest Retreat
My stay at this VRBO was nothing short of magical. Nestled just outside Glacier National Park, it offered the perfect blend of convenience and tranquility. From the moment I arrived, I was swept away by the breathtaking views of the surrounding forest. The house itself was a true gem - immaculately clean, and filled with thoughtful touches. The cozy living area and well-equipped kitchen made me feel right at home. I had a hard time even leaving to go explore the area because of how cozy and beautiful the house and surrounding forest is. The proximity to Glacier National Park was a huge plus. I was able to make the most of my time exploring the pristine wilderness, and the convenient proximity to Columbia Falls made grocery (and ice cream) runs quick and convenient. The hosts were exceptional, providing clear instructions and helpful tips for my stay. Their passion for the area was evident, and their recommendations for local hikes and eateries were spot-on. The highlight of my stay was waking up to the serene beauty of the Montana wilderness right at my doorstep. The air was filled with the sweet scent of pine trees and the songs of birds - a true nature lover's paradise. I left with memories that will last a lifetime and a longing to return. If you're looking for a slice of heaven near Glacier National Park, look no further!

Remarkable!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at Dancing Bear Haus, this remarkable property near Glacier National Park. We cannot express enough how exceptional our experience was. From the moment my wife and I arrived, we were captivated by the stunning surroundings and the impeccable attention to detail that the property offered. The location of the Dancing Bear Haus was absolutely perfect. Situated in close proximity to Glacier National Park, we were able to easily explore the park’s breathtaking landscapes and enjoy its numerous outdoor activities. The convenience of being so close to such a natural wonder was truly a dream come true. The property itself was nothing short of extraordinary. Every aspect of the accommodation was meticulously designed and maintained, providing a luxurious and comfortable stay. The interior was tastefully decorated, combining modern amenities with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The spacious rooms were immaculate, and the beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night’s sleep after a day of adventure. The property owner and management team were also exceptional in their hospitality. They were prompt in their communication, ensuring a smooth check-in process and providing helpful recommendations for local attractions and dining options. Their attentiveness and willingness to go above and beyond to make our stay memorable were truly appreciated. We wholeheartedly recommend the Dancing Bear Haus!

Beautiful apartment. Threatened by property owner.
The rental is a very pretty property on a secluded dirt road and is well furnished. However, the space provided did not seem to match the listing. We expected 1190 square feet and the spaces shown in the photos. Unfortunately, it was smaller and not equipped for the five people in our party – e.g., only four counter stools. The bedrooms do not allow for much privacy, one is open space, another just has a sliding door, only one has an actual door for privacy. The winding staircase has sharp edges as well and is a bit dangerous. We reached out to the host about what we thought we had rented and what was actually provided and were offered the option to rent additional space. This we did not wish to do. We asked the host to clean up their listing and to offer a partial refund, but they said no. We contacted vrbo, but they did not help. After reaching out to vrbo, we immediately received a message from the host stating (incorrectly and we had documentation to prove it) we had broken house rules and that we were vacate that same day, that they would engage the authorities if we did not and would sue us if we damaged the property. We contacted vrbo. They reached out to the host who said we could stay after all. We were quite stressed after being threatened, but vrbo stated that if we chose to leave they would not help us recover the lost cost. Beautiful property, but the listing is vague, the host’s reactions unwarranted and vrbo washed their hands of any responsibility.
