Great Cabin- get own beach & dock! Perfect for Glacier National Park Vacation!

Grandpa's Cabin ~

A great Montana feel!

This rustic home now has been updated with New Flooring, New Stove, New Dining Room Table, New Refrigerator, New Couch, added a Dishwasher and New Mattresses! This cabin has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom and is capable of sleeping up to 8 people in beds. There is access to your own private beach just across the road on Lake 5 with a dock.

Just minutes from your front door are countless family activities, some of which include: Glacier National Park hikes, sight seeing, whitewater rafting, fly fishing, horse back riding, helicopter tours and fine dining. This is a great home base to spend a few days in Glacier or just relax by the water.

Note: This cabin is in the forest. You will have some insects (gnats, mosquitoes, flies, and spiders) at anytime throughout the year. There will be wild animals such as but not limited to bats, deer, gophers, elk, bears, and other animals around the cabin as well. Please be aware of these and prepare accordingly.

Perfect Cabin
I LOVED this property!!! The location was great, near the park entrance and restaurants. It was very clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the fire pit out back and the lake. It was exactly what we were looking for.

No frills place near GNP west entrance.
We primarily used this a a place to sleep. Glad it had a heat pump (cooling or heating) in the primary sleeping room. Kids also had fun swimming from the dock, which is located across the street.

Great place for everything except full privacy
We loved this place. The surrounding is tranquil. The lake is beautiful. The kitchen is fully equipped. The only complaint we had is a bit lack of privacy. The large bedroom does NOT have its only direct inside access to the bathroom! Sleepers in it needed to either go through the master bedroom or outside through the porch and the front door, which was rather inconvenient during the nights.

Dock across the street from home
We had a great time and enjoyed AC in the large bedroom. Saw deer in the yard every evening. Very relaxing and fun to but on a Disney vinyl at bedtime. No coffee provided so make sure to bring your own coffee.

Great family property
This little cabin is perfect for your family getaway, especially if you have teens who are too old or big to share a bed! Super convenient to the park, with board games to keep you occupied if it rains.

Perfect place for visiting Glacier National Park
My family spent our summer vacation at Grandpa's Cabin. We visited Glacier National Park several times conveniently located only a few minutes away. Some days we stayed at the cabin and played on the lake. The private dock was a wonderful spot to lounge, jump into the water, and launch our SUP. We appreciated the fun records and record player and AC. The cabin was very clean, organized, and had everything we needed to have a great vacation. Thank you!

This cabin was perfect for our family of four though it could have slept many more people! The lake is accessible directly across the street and it is beautiful. Ryan was welcoming and nice. All in all it was a great trip.

This property was just what we were looking for. Hicking, fishing, site-seeing and cooking in the evenings with a fire pit to reflect on the day. It was spectacular! For us, we wanted a none commercial location that was still close to Glacier Park entrance.

Great getaway
This was a great property to stay at for a base to GNP. Even if we hadn’t planned spending a majority of time at GNP, this would have been a great place on the lake. Ryan was great to work with. He made sure he kept us informed of fire restrictions and changes with the reservation system at GNP. He really went above and beyond. Thank you!

Fall trip
We stayed at grandpa’s cabin for five nights, good location to glacier national park. Quaint and clean cabin. Perfect for the two of us. If staying at the cabin with children or another couple, the second bedroom has three full beds, but would need to walk through the master bedroom to get to anything else in the cabin, such as the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. There is a door if you want to walk outside and come in the front door to avoid walking through the master.

Excellent experience!
We loved our stay at Grandpa’s Cabin! We thought the location and fire pit were awesome. We liked how well the kitchen was set up. One minor issue was how the front screen door didn’t close well (there was a sign saying to shut it all the way but it was kind of a pain). Aside from that, we really enjoyed this location and highly recommend it!

Piece of paradise
This cabin is in a great location for west glacier. Cabin was clean and had all the amenities we needed for an enjoyable vacation. The living room/ dinning room is small but we spend most of our time outside. The lake is across a small lightly traveled road and down a steep slope, steps made into the hillside for ease. The private dock was very tranquil and relaxing. The view is incredibly beautiful and breathtaking. We highly recommend this place and we plan on renting when we come back to Glacier. Thanks “Grandpa” for sharing your piece of paradise with us.

Glacier Cabin
This cabin is in the absolute perfect location to explore Glacier National Park. The dock on Lake 5 is really amazing! Unfortunately, the week we were there the gnats inside the cabin were terrible. We reached out to the property manager and he did respond by email but did not attempt to help with the issue. We ended up purchasing and putting up fly strips on our own. We caught hundreds of gnats with these. This helped some but in the evenings the gnats would still swarm your face. It really impacted our comfort and happiness with the stay.

Great location, cute cabin but needs some upgrades
Great location, Lake just a short walk away. Cute little cabin right in middle of forest with nice fire pit. We loved walking down to the lake and hanging out on the dock swimming and paddle boarding...rented paddle boards from whitefish tours, great friendly guy, very reasonable. Inside the house could use some upgrades, coffee pot took almost 40 minutes to make full pot. Futon in living room, not comfortable to sit on. Loved the record player and all the games. Maybe they’re going for retro feel but if a few things were updated, it could be amazing. Overall, had a wonderful time, thanks for sharing grandpas cabin with our family!!
