Fabulous Anniversary Vacation
This “Lifes A Bear” retreat was as beautiful and relaxing as the pictures show. The peaceful forest along with the relaxing hot tub was the perfect setting to unwind after enjoying the many attractions in close proximity of the property. Many thanks to the host and hostess for making this vacation one of our best ever!

Cute & Cozy Kalispell Cabin!
This wonderful cabin has everything needed for a relaxing, peaceful getaway. We stayed two nights on our way to Yellowstone and wished we had booked it for longer. The hosts even left cheesecake and wine chilling in the fridge to help us celebrate our 40th anniversary! Thanks for sharing your beautiful place with us!

Wonderful Mountain Getaway
This lovely cabin was exactly as described and went above and beyond in accommodations. Host communicated extremely well but was not bothersome with communication. Gave clear directions for arriving to the property and what to expect. The cabin was clean and had every amenity you could need, it even had a small fan for my nighttime white noise. It was in a nice quiet wooded neighborhood with the host’s home behind. It was perfectly laid out where you didn’t see or notice anyone else. The hot tub was an amazing extra feature, as was the washer and dryer! It didn’t feel far from Kalispell or Glacier and was easy to get around for sightseeing. Would recommend this charming cabin to everyone!
