This location is prime. After our daily hikes at Glacier National Park (just 20 minutes away) we were able to come home to grill out and enjoy walks along the Flathead River. This is a perfect location. The home is clean, has everything we needed and comfortable. Communication with the host was responsive and positive. We cannot wait to return and cannot recommend this host and location enough. 11 out of 10! Don't forget to visit the Gunsight Saloon and for the BEST butcher Perfect Cuts you can't go wrong.

This property is a gem located in Columbia Falls. The host is responsive and the property clean. The captivating view is a short walk from the house not the front door view. Conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood is close to dining and Glacier National Park. The home is very comfortable and we enjoyed spending our 20th anniversary there.

This house is in a quiet neighborhood with white tail deer that visit each night, sometimes there are 3 that like to eat the delicious apples in the neighbors yard. If you not too tired from hiking all day a walk to the Flathead beside this home is very relaxing.

Quiet Comfortable Bungalow Near Glacier

This cozy comfortable home was clean and had everything we needed. Since we traveled with our dog, we loved the fenced in backyard and the perfect location to walk through River's Edge Park. West Glacier and the entrance to Glacier Park was about 20 minutes away. This is our second time staying at the Bungalow and we recommend it.

September in Columbia Falls

Cute little bungalow for spouse and myself and stayed 3 nights for the Glacier NP leg of our trip. It was around a 20 minute drive to Glacier NP. We enjoyed being greeted every morning by the neighborhood cats when we walked to the River Edge Park path. Home was conveniently located near grocery store, gas stations, and coffee shops. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Good location, would not rent again

First I'd like to say I REALLY appreciate properties that allow pets. This one has a fully fenced back yard which was fantastic for our dog. The location is convenient to necessary shopping and to Glacier. There's a nice city park across the street. Still, I would not stay at this property again because the home has a very musty smell in it. So strong that I could smell it coming out the screen door when sitting on the deck. I know I have a very sensitive sense of smell and clearly many people either can't smell it or are not bothered by it based on all the reviews I read before renting it. Other reviews mentioned the bed. Nothing appears to have changed with that. It's uncomfortable and very noisy. The pillows are hard and flat. We actually left a day early because of these issues.

Charming cozy house in the perfect location

We truly had the best time in Montana. This house is great for dogs, the backyard is perfect. We walked to the house/river and walked to the downtown area for drinks/food. I even walked to the Yoga Hive classes for the week we stayed. It's pretty close to Glacier, you'll have to drive unless you stay in the park. It's in the middle to Flathead Lake (our winner of the trip to swim in the Summer). And close to Whitefish which has cute shopping and restaurants. The hosts were responsive and the house was well stocked. Enjoy your Montana adventure at a home away from home!

Lovely base for Glacier National Park exploration!

We enjoyed our time at the house, which was right next to a neighborhood park with great walking paths. We spent a week enjoying Glacier National Park. It is about a 25 minute drive to the Apgar Visitor Center and the start of the Going-To-The-Sun road. The house is well set up for a couple and had everything we needed.

Loved staying at the Glacier Bungalow

It was convenient to West Glacier entrance, grocery store, and to restaurants. The place was very clean with a well-stocked kitchen for cooking. The grill was also great - we ate outside every night. We would recommend this place and would stay here again when visiting the area.

Perfect!

This little bungalow was the perfect retreat for my husband and I while we toured Glacier. Kristi was the perfect host with everything in place for us, we really appreciated not having to worry about anything. Her husband came by to check on us and he gave us a few great tips on hikes that he recommended and encouraged the boat tour ; we took his advice and it was fantastic - so glad we went (St. Mary's Lake). The neighborhood is quiet and safe and only 25 minutes to the entrance to Glacier. The town of Columbia Falls is very cute with many restaurants to enjoy. We ate twice at the Mexican restaurant and enjoyed great food and margarita's! We are GF and we were surprised to find a local pizza place that served GF pizza and it was really good. One night we wanted a home cooked meal so we used the grill and sat out on the deck and ate. Highly recommend this VRBO.
