Location to Glacier National Park was great. The size of the apartment was great for 3 of us , three nice sized bedrooms. Large private outdoor porch with Mountain View was awesome. Washer and dryer, and full size kitchen was perfect.

an eclectic collection of buildings and trailers, not much to look at from the outside! But anchored by a great Starbucks facility and the interior of our # 29 was well equipped and comfortable to sleep!

Property was clean and as portrayed in the listing. There was no daily service and we never actually saw anyone as the key code was emailed and then paperwork was taped to window, so no interaction with staff of any kind.
