Perfect
My sister and I were in the Flathead to spread our parents' ashes. This location provided us with a lovely, peaceful opportunity to have a meaningful experience, and still enjoy the amenities of the condo on the lake and the fun town of Bigfork. The Bigfork Summer Playhouse, dinner at Show Thymne, Glacier Park, and time on Flathead Lake are musts!

Mostly great
The room was clean, comfortable, and had a beautiful view. The location was great.
Need more bath towels, two towels for two people for 3 nights is not enough. There were no coffee mugs despite having a coffee maker.
The one big thing that caught us off guard and was a bit nerve racking was having a man let himself into our room while we were there. He was the person who inspects after check out, but it was one day before we were checking out. He apologized but it scared us pretty bad to hear someone coming through our locked door.
Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Meeting Needs
Pros-Right next to the water, easy road access, close proximity to grocery, activities, etc. TV had wide range of channels/music to put on. Small fridge and stove top that we made use of.
Cons-Had a wobbly chair, 2 lights that didn't work, a squeaky headboard on the bed we used, couldn't lower the dishwasher all the way down, showerhead was fairly low, a very loud AC unit. All minor conveniences, small enough for us to request bothering staff with, but too many to warrant a 5-star.
