Glacier International Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and Friendly"

Meadow Lake Resort & Condos

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent well-maintained property."

Wonderstone at Glacier

10/10 Excellent

"Good"

Under Canvas Glacier

10/10 Excellent

"Scott and staff were amazing. Helpful and accommodating every step of the way. Great experience that I would recommend to those wanting to not got with the traditional cabin or hotel room. Remember that you’re next to a main highway and train line, so the morning noise is there. Ear plugs provided. Last note is the food from their little food but was out of this world. I did the frittata for breakfast and buffalo BBQ bowl for dinner. Five stars for both. Thanks to Scott and team for a great experience. Highly recommend this one."

West Glacier Cabin Village

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful site. Cabin was cute and comfortable. Staff was very friendly."

Glacier Acres Guest Ranch

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent value. Great room."

Glacier Haven Inn

8/10 Good

"This property is more of a "Mom and Pop" style motel. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the rooms are of comfortable size and VERY clean. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. We ate dinner at the cafe and the Asian food was very good and reasonably priced. There is some noise from the road in front and the railroad in back, but the road noise was minimal at night. For us, the only downside might be the mattresses. They could be updated. That being said, my husband and I both slept well because we were sleeping in separate beds. Also, we received a message the day we left asking us if we had lost or left behind a watch. We hadn't, but it was nice to have them check with us in case it had been ours. It felt like very personal service."

Whistling Swan Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Don't judge this book by the covers. Rooms were extremely neat and warm. Beds and sheets were clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. A safe, quiet, convenient and great place to stay with family if you are not picky about having a swanky front desk."

Silverwolf Log Chalet Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very cozy and wonderfully decorated. I enjoyed the ambience of the setting."
