We have rented a lot of properties but this might have been the best experience we have had. Our hosts were amazing and the property was fantastic. Highly recommend!
This was a great property located closely to the west side of Glacier National park. Very clean, and the owners were friendly and very knowledgeable! We had 7 adults there with plenty of room for all of us. Thanks for a great stay!
We really enjoyed our stay here, the beds were comfortable and the owners were very attentive to our needs, they even supplied us with bear spray, & cooler they also had walking sticks. If we are able to go back one day hope to be able to stay here again.
Charlotte and Peter’s home is one of the best vacation homes we have rented. We spent a week in Columbia Falls as our home base for exploring Glacier National Park and it was perfect. The house was clean, comfortable, and extremely well stocked. The checkin process was easy, and Charlotte, Peter, and their niece, Jacqueline, were very helpful. We will definitely be back!
Great home, great neighborhood, and great location for getting to all the usual hiking areas. Very helpful owners with lots of information about local fishing, hiking and restaurants.
Charlotte was an amazing host, going above and beyond to ensure our stay in Montana was perfect. She regularly checked in on us, making sure we had everything we needed, from helpful tips on local attractions to cozy amenities in our accommodations. Her warm hospitality made us feel truly welcome, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thanks to her attention to detail, we were able to fully enjoy the breathtaking beauty of the area without any worries! I would like to come back and book with Charlotte.
Could not ask for better place and the hospitality that was shown to us by Charlotte and Pete. They had all information we needed for activities and local restaurants. They gave great information on park and best sites to see. It was like having your own travel agent next door. House was stocked and ready for us comfortable accommodation for our family
If looking for best stay I recommend you stop looking right here
Thanks again Charlotte and Pete
Comfortable, peaceful, clean and perfectly located for experiencing Glacier and surrounding areas. We had all we needed and were very happy! Highly recommend! Can’t wait to return!!
My family had a great time in Columbia Falls. The townhome we stayed at was beautiful. It had everything we needed and more to make our stay enjoyable. The hosts are so nice and helpful. A lot of thought has been put into what a family may need when staying at this townhome. Our daughter got married in Glacier National Park. Staying in Columbia Fall gave us easy access to a lot of fun activities. We spent our days in Big Fork, White Fish and Glacier National Park. Thank you for your hospitality !!! We highly recommend this Vrbo!!
The hosts had all local activities displayed for us to easily find things to do while we were there. All rooms were well equipped and very clean. The owner stayed in the house beside of us and visited us every day to ensure we were having a good time.
We loved our time in Columbia Falls! Pete and Charlotte were very accommodating and were extremely helpful with finding activities/restaurants in the area. The house was clean and was stocked with all the necessitities. We would love to come back!
The house is very well supplied nestled in a quite neighborhood. The Flathead River is within walking distance and only 15 mito the west gate of glacier national park. Would most definitely stay there agian
Property was exactly as described! Clean and well equipped kitchen. Plenty of towels and beds were comfortable. Charlotte and Peter were very friendly and provided plenty of literature about places to eat and things to do.
Property managers were on site with loads of helpful tips for the Glacier area. The town is located between Whitefish and the National park. Prime location! Walking distance to grocery store and coffee shop! Wonderful week away.
We enjoyed our time at the river retreat! The check in process was easy and the hosts were very informative and helpful for us to understand all the features of the home. The house was as advertised and very clean, updated, and comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet and the river is just a few minutes walk from the home. Thanks for the excellent accommodations for us to enjoy Montana!
Owners were gracious and thorough on arrival. Ice bag in freezer, maps, listing of restaurants, all stocked kitchen appliances. Very helpful when we needed directions. Extremely clean and would stay again.
Beautifully home, safely nestled in a lovely, restful neighborhood. Hosts are kind, thoughtful and welcoming. Located within walking distance to Montana Coffee Company and short drive to nearby stores in town and not too far from West Glacier. Absolutely love it - if looking for modern, comfortable and relaxing home away from home with excellent hosts- it’s all you need !
This is a perfect property/location for staying on the west side of Glacier National Park. The house was very nice and extremely clean. The kitchen is well stocked, the living room and bedrooms are very spacious and comfortable, and we really loved the shady back patio in the afternoon. Pete and Charlotte have done a great job having a lot of little nice touches that make the property feel very homey. Overall it was the perfect place to stay for us for our summer trip!
Extremely well stocked and very clean. It had everything we could ever use and was clean, clean, clean. Beds were very comfortable and I can not recommend the location. 15 minutes to the park, a quiet neighborhood walking distance to the farmers market, walking trails just out the door. Really nice property
