Glacier vacatio

Location was interesting…did see Turkeys, pheasants & deer in field behind the cabin. Mike & Irina were nice. Lots of construction stuff going on. Cabin was okay, no couch or soft chairs in cabin, only 3 wooden table chairs at table. Only hard back chairs & no comfortable chairs outside, after gone all day, need place to relax. The photos online were not good depiction of outside. Loved Glacier, proximity to West glacier & Kalispell was a plus. Next 2 places we stayed were so much nicer & less expensive. One near East Glacier & the other in Idaho Falls.

The house was whimsical and cute. It was also very clean and quiet. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. It's a nice little place tucked away with some pretty views of the mountains. It is close to everything, but still feels private and secluded.

Whitefish concert trip

We had a great experience. Cabin was perfect for us. Clean and cozy. Wildlife in back yard! Communication with hosts was great. Nice secluded location and even though it was close to train tracks it didn’t disturb us at all! Bed slept great! Nice breezes throughout the cabin. Would recommend to others!

Montana getaway

At the end of a dead end road - No road traffic. Isolated with all amenities that you would need for a get away. Cabin was comfortable, clean and private. 30 min drive to Glacier National Park. However, not as close to river or lake as indicated, but not a big deal for us.

Mike’s Place

It was a wonderful place to stay. Very clean and cozy. My only complaint was that the last picture on the listing was of a fire pit that was built up with seating with a body of water in the background. I thought the rental would be right on the water and have a spot to make a fire. There was a place to make a fire there but we did not feel comfortable using it and there was no body of water there.

Intrusive

The owner was nice enough. I had to wash table when I got there because it was so dirty. It stated that Towels were provided but there was only one bath towel for showering and no washcloths at all. I asked him for a washcloth and he brought me a kitchen towel. The grass was up to my knees so you couldn't really enjoy the yard. And I know there will be mosquitos but the long grass didn't help I'm sure. All those little things aside, most importantly needs to be noted that he should NOT be using the cabin during the day when his renters are gone. He came in to use the washing machine while I wasn't there. I paid to rent your property for four days, it's MY space for those four days. Then, final night I was sitting on the deck talking on my phone when he came over and said "Can I throw these in the washer" his armful of sheets. I said that I had stuff in there so he couldn't and went inside. He should NOT be entering the property when he has it rented out, I feel that is just wrong.
