The Perfect Family Home for Visiting Glacier

This was the perfect home for visiting Glacier National Park. Glacier is less than 10 minutes away and after a long day of hiking, the property offered grilling, camp fires and wonderful views. The owners shared stories of the home's history. You will absolutely feel welcome.

Charming Cabin

Grandma’s Cabin is a special place. It was authentic, comfortable, and very clean. The owners thought of every little thing we could possibly want to make our stay easy and fun. The view out back was beautiful too. We really loved our time there! We enjoyed GNP even though traffic and parking made hiking far away trails difficult.

Peak serenity!

We stayed for the second park of our Montana vacation. The view from this property’s back yard is amazing! It is private and relaxing. The west glacier entrance is very close and several quaint places to eat and shop nearby. The drive to Kalispell airport is quick too. We enjoyed our stay here very much and would recommended staying here!

Such a gem

This home is truly what it is listed as: Grandma’s Cabin. The location is just spectacular. The house is extremely comfortable. The kitchen has what you need. I didn’t want to leave. The hosts were sweet and welcoming.

The Best!

This was absolutely the best stay we've ever experienced. The hosts love this place and it shows. Great location right near Glacier Park entrance in West Glacier. But the view from this cabin was beyond our dreams. We traveled with a dog and an elderly (104 y/o) aunt who uses a wheelchair. They both loved this spot too. Susan was very helpful, friendly and informative. It was very expensive-beyond our budget, really. But we do not regret the splurge to stay here. It was the highlight spot of our trip. Thanks for sharing this special place, Susan and Matt.

AMAZING view & great location

This very cute cabin reminded us of spending time at our grandma’s house. It has some age but it’s extremely clean. The views are absolutely insane!! We had a great time enjoying the evenings in front of the camp fire in the back and watching the sun rise in the morning over the mountains. The cabin is just outside of Glacier NP and was close the the highway to get to our excursions easily.

RELAXING

This may top all other stays. It had the best views, we saw bear, deer, grouse, eagles, and so much more, all from the yard of the cabin. The overlook of the river in the back and the sound of the water was as peaceful as you will ever find. The cabin's rustic charm made us feel like we were visiting the past, while enjoying the present amenities. This is the place to go if you're looking for some peaceful/relaxing time. The cabin is located less than 5 minutes to the entrance of Glacier National Park on the "Going to the Sun" road. We had the pleasure of meeting one of the managers, " Sue". She was extremely nice and very informative of things to do and places to visit in the area. GREAT PLACE!!!!!! Not enough words to describe the entire experience.

Perfectly preserved cabin in the woods

It was such a treat to stay at this historic cabin in an ideal setting along the Flathead river so close to the West Glacier National Park entrance. The home is a time capsule with period furniture, surfaces, art. We enjoyed the record player, games, books, tv and outdoor games. The house is extremely organized, labeled and supplied with everything you may need. The outdoor space is perfectly planned with a firepit, front porch swing and spacious lawn. We are already planning our return trip! Thank you very much Matt & Sue for your gracious hospitality!

Quick entrance to west side of park

This property had everything we needed and the owners checked on us frequently. Nice view of the mountains and river. It was so peaceful! My kids were impressed there were games and movies at the cabin. The kitchen had all the things we needed to use. There was a grill and washer and dryer. The bath towels were fluffy and the bed linens were nice. The house was very clean. There were fans available to use in the rooms if needed. We would definitely stay here again if we ever wanted to visit glacier national park again!

No words to adequately describe other than breath taking!

We have traveled to many places but the view from this cabin rental is truly breath taking. The view of the flathead river and mountains as a back drop can be seen from the main living and dining area or from outside by the fire pit or bench/lounging chairs. We spent many hours just sitting outside reading, resting, and enjoying our view. The cabin decor is from the 60’s/70’s and brought back fond memories from my childhood but at least I could show my daughter how to use the record player. The cabin was extremely clean and well organized with everything so thoughtfully labeled. The cabin was well equipped and stocked; all the amenities provided and host also provided huckleberries which made for a delicious cobbler. The owners were very kind and helpful. We truly appreciated them sharing this family heirloom and history of the homestead. It was the most peaceful vacation we have ever had! We hope to be able to return someday.

Worth it!!

I was hesitant to spend more than my original budget but it’s 100% worth it for the location and amenities. Matt and his wife were always responding to my questions immediately. They even took the time to send me a long message with all the best places to visit. The cabin is old fashioned but has anything you could need and more. It’s extremely comfortable and really is like staying with your grandma or your favorite relative. The location really is the best for two reasons. First the proximity to the park is perfect. No driving when you are tired from hiking and after driving thru the park all day. Second is the River!!! We spent almost as much time playing in and watching the River as we did in the park. My kids loved the River. And this was the only place we actually saw any wildlife. We didn’t see a single animal on any hike, but saw several deer, a black ear and bald Eagle all at the cabin. Overall I can’t say enough great things about this place. Highly recommend it.

This place is special!

My family of 6 have been fortunate to stay some amazing places. Both coasts and several national parks included. Of all of our trips this place was truly special. The location and view are impossible to do justice by describing them here. My 4 girls loved everything about the house but the ability to walk down the hill and play in the river was their favorite. If you like to fish this place can’t be beat! My wife and I started discussing a return trip here before our stay was over. I have never stayed anywhere that was so well stocked. Everything from bug spray to stuff for s’mores was there! Matt and Sue were the most incredible hosts and even took the time to show the girls where to find the huckleberries. We arrived fairly late the first day, but with it being light until 10:30 this time of year I decided I was going to have a campfire and just enjoy the incredible view. They had gone as far as building a teepee of kindling and paper so all I had to do was light a match! First class attention to detail! Not only is the location incredibly beautiful, but also convenient. You are 2 minutes from the all of the shops/food/gas in west glacier and the entrance to the park. I can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you so much for sharing your special home with us Matt and Sue!!!

I've never loved a cabin so much!!

My family and I stayed at Grandma's cabin for about a week and absolutely loved everything about it. It's a spacious cabin, roomier than the pictures let on, very comfortable, and well maintained. We loved the decor and the personal touches -- see the recipe for cornbread on the inside of the big cabinet! And the cabin was immaculate -- cleaning was outstanding - both the cabin and the grounds. All you can eat huckleberries (if you're there at the right time) since the cabin is surrounded by huckleberry bushes. Full kitchen, towels, grill, board games, tv, wash machine and dryer + more. Loved it! Location was great, remote enough to feel isolated without actually being too isolated. Within 3 minute driver to Glacier Park West entrance. View from the cabin is stunning although actually going down to the water is a bit of a challenge. Owners were absolutely fantastic and were a wealth of knowledge about the cabin's history. In fact, the history of the cabin is absolutely fascinating and the opportunity to stay in a cabin that had seen so much was really special. In sum, this is a wonderful place to stay: modernized but still with a lot of character, close to Glacier, and charming in and of itself. Would come back and would not hesitate to recommend to others.

Beautiful views and wonderful hosts!

This property is special and has truly magnificent views of GNP. The neighborhood was so peaceful and our hosts were gracious and helpful! The kitchen is very well stocked and the home is extremely well cared for. You are literally less than a mile from the entrance to GNP, 40 minutes from Whitefish and less than an hour from Flathead Lake. We truly enjoyed our stay!

Glasier Grandma's Home

I thought it was going to be and look much older, wrong, it has it all, very comfortable with all the amenities needed, plus he has an adorable wife that we had the most contact with and she told the loveliest story of the home and the two large picture windows that look out over the river with mountains rising at the river's edge, and thanks Sue for your cordiality. If I ever go back to that park, I would love to stay in this home.

Amazing Views and Amazing Hosts

The hosts are the best. I came here with my mother-in-law, husband, and kids. They hosts provided everything we needed paper towels, garbage bags, soaps, towels, laundry soap, and even the makings for smores, and games for my kids to play. They came by the house and told us where to find huckleberries, sarvis berries were around the property. They also told us some of the can't miss places to check out in the park. Whenever we make another visit to Glacier National Park we will be planning on staying here. Thank you Sue and Matt for the great time.

Grandma's Cabin at Glacier National Park 2022

We LOVED "Grandma's Cabin"! Sue and Matt are wonderful hosts! This was a perfect location for us! It is very near the west gate to Glacier National Park... The backyard of the cabin literally backs up to the park! your view is looking into the park. We were able to (using the reservation system online for park passes and tickets) drive through the park and the "going to the sun road".. Over to St. Marys, on to Many Glacier road where the Many Glacier Hotel is... such a perfect beautiful setting! We drove on up to Swift Current Hotel where we had lunch and on our way back out Many Glacier Road we saw a bear about 20 yards off the road in the brush. Came back to West Glacier outside the park... driving through East Glacier and seeing Two Medicine Lake.We have seen Mountain Goats, Bears, Mule Deer, Ground Squirrels, chipmunks and black squirrels... You can listen to the river as it runs behind the cabin. We walked some easy trails, Trail to the cedars is a beautiful short walk on a boardwalk through the cedars. We drove up to the North Fork Road Entrance, after getting up the day before, before 8am to sign on online to try for one of the 70 passes that become available, 24 hours before the day you want to go... we tried 2 days in a row for this, and We got one!!! The 70 tickets for North Fork entrance, and the 550 tickets for the Going to the Sun Road, were sold out by 8:05am!!! Polebridge Mercantile for AHMAZING pastries!! Huckleberry everything everywhere you look! Grandma's Cabin is absolutely perfect, in a perfect location with wonderful hosts... there is a bed and full bath on the main floor and 2 bedrooms that share a second bath on the second story. We cant say enough good about this place! We will definitely be back again!

Amazing

Comfortable, very close to the park and the town of West Glacier. The home is older, but the amenities and attention to detail in the home are wonderful. The owners are delightful. The main selling point of this property is the stunning view from the main living spaces and the back yard. Our family of 4 (two adults, two small children) stayed there and were able to have extended family over for dinner very comfortably. Everything about this place is wonderful. We stayed here the first week of September and had excellent weather for simply relaxing outside. There’s an awesome fire pit stocked with wood for cooler weather. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!!
