The perfect stay!

We couldn't have been happier with our stay. The property itself was incredible including board games, good books, word scramble, kitchen fully prepared to cook, wonderful patio and views, and comfortable bed. Not to mention, DT Whitefish is within walking distance including shopping, bars, and the lake. We cannot wait to book our next stay!

Tidy, updated, comfortable, clean & great location

We were so pleased with our stay at this loft in Whitefish. The location could not be beat, the kitchen had everything we could need and the entire property was neat as a pin. The bed was so comfortable, there were interesting books to read & literature on the area. We recommend this place, heartily!

We loved staying at this condo. As a couple there's more than enough space, it's super clean and decorated lovely. It's in a great location and surrounded by delicious restaurants - Pescado Blanco, Loula's to name a few. JJ was super welcoming and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

Great location and host

We were close to town and shopping ... and just a couple of blocks away from trails along the river. The home was beautiful and cozy. The added bonus of a half bath with a separate toilet made it perfect for us. JJ, our host, was available for communication at any time. Really a wonderful place to stay in Whitefish!

This is a great condo! Spacious, large kitchen, steps from downtown. The Murphy bed is super handy, very nice master bath and shower, linens were great. Would love it to have a king bed and a tv for living room, though.

Amazing Experience

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and accommodations were wonderful! It was so close to walk anywhere in downtown Whitefish and there was no shortage of wonderful food to pick from. We did a few day trips to Glacier National Park and the location of the VRBO was perfect to have somewhere nice to come back to each day. Our only “complaint” was it being a little loud early in the morning and at night but that was to be expected. The property manager JJ is local and was a phenomenal help!!! Can’t recommend this property enough.

Outstanding place to stay

We loved the Railway Loft and were so happy to have stayed there during our week in Whitefish. The space was large with great windows, and we loved the lighting and furnishings. The kitchen had everything we needed. It was also warm and very quiet, and we could walk anywhere we wanted in town. Being there felt more like being at home than at a rental. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay in Whitefish.

Why they chose this property

My sister bought the Railway Loft for a place to stay when she visits us from Seattle. Its location is in the very popular area known as the 'The Railway District', a historic section near downtown Whitefish that is a great mix of local business, delicious restaurants, art galleries, and small homes.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location!
The Railway Loft is conveniently located within blocks of downtown Whitefish. We are blocks away from the Amtrak Station, art galleries, performing art centers, restaurants, Whitefish Lake and Whitefish River, coffee houses, bars, bookstores, local stores and more! We love being able to walk anywhere in town or take our bikes for a quick ride to City Beach. Inside the space is beautiful and comfortable with special attention to design detail and finishings. It's your home away from home!
