Annual friends ski trip

We very much enjoyed our time at the cabin. Easy to access. Short drive to town and to big mountain but still with a secluded feel. Our hosts were easy to work with but non intrusive in our stay. Loved having a hot tub to relax in after skiing some of the most expansive terrain in North America. One of our favorite trips and places weve stayed so far. Would definitely recommend and will be back!

Great place!

We all enjoyed the cabin very much. The cabin was very clean and in a secluded area. Though the water was a little too cold having the pond in the back was great. Carl was very friendly and easy to deal with. Would love to stay here again sometime.

The Best Home for My Perfect Day!

We reserved this home for myself and my bridesmaids the night before I got married, and it was where my husband and I came after the wedding, and it was PERFECT! Carl was so nice and responsive, it was really a pleasure staying somewhere so close to my own home- I felt like I was really on vacation!

Very nice property

The cabin was nice and clean. It is close enough to whitefish and Kalispell to make for easy drives to both, but far enough away from town to feel remote. Saw deer out the front and back doors several mornings.

Highly recommended - super tranquil

Beautiful lodge - everything we needed and a lot more. Wonderful touches like special biscuits and the canoes and floats for the lake. The kids were so happy and preferred being in the lodge to hiking! Thanks so much. It was utterly first class.

The Cabin

Wonderful experience. Teens loved the swimming hole. Wasps were bad so we ate inside. Previous guest dog left a present in the yard so we cleaned it up. Beds were hard but comfy. Coffee was amazing! Delightful experience. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Breathing cabin

I can’t say enough about this cabin. I felt at home. The cabin was fully stocked and very clean. It was secluded in what I would call hidden valley. The pond in the backyard was the highlight of the trip for the kids. The location was perfect . We can’t waif to com back next year.

There was 4 adults and 3 children, ages 1,3 and 6. The cabin is really nice and the pond was great. The kids really enjoyed swimming. It seems that they really planned everything here for the perfect vacation for a family. We will be back for sure.

Tranquil and private

We spent three days with our family on property. Close to town but very private and tucked away. The kids enjoyed swimming and kayaking and watching the wildlife come and go in the early morning and late evening hours from the covered lanai. It was so peaceful. The hosts were gracious and kind. The beds were comfortable, rooms were spacious, and the kitchen and living room were perfect, providing adequate space for everybody to relax, connect, dine, and hang out. We will be back again!
