Perfect Montana getaway
Family and I had a great week staying at the cabin and enjoying both sides of glacier. We knocked out all the hikes we planned the first few days so we’re able to hang out and enjoy the cabin and some local trails on our last day. Cabin was exactly what my wife and I were looking for when we planned our trip and we would stay here again on future trips.

We absolutely 💯 loved Wayne’s cabin. It was such a perfect quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of the national park hotels. Great wildlife and nature too! Wayne was super nice and checked in with us too ask if he could pick up anything for us. Thank you Wayne we appreciate you!

Beautiful cozy cabin in the woods
This lovely cabin was very well equipped. We were greeted with a gift basket and a bottle of wine! We liked the fact that they provided all the condiments such as ketchup, butter , coffee etc. Our hosts, Wayne and M.J. were always available via phone for any questions or help.( they live close by) M.J. found a camera cord that my sister left behind and promptly mailed it to her. This place is awesome!!!

Secluded Getaway
This property did not disappoint and was exactly what we were looking for. It is a place to disconnect and connect with nature. We loved taking walks in the afternoon, even in the snow. You do have quite a drive to get to any major stores, but we did not mind. Highly recommend.

Perfect Getaway
We had a wonderful week in Montana with all its natural beauty and it was just as much pleasure to come back to our cabin and relax at the end of each day. Our cabin was clean and well equipped with all its modern features. Spacious inside with a full modern kitchen and bath. Comfortable queen size beds and open spacious downstairs sitting area. Outside deck with large grill gave us a perfect place to make some dinners at the end of the day and eat under the Mountain View. Wayne was friendly and gave us great suggestions to see some of Montanas natural beauty. Thank you again!

A quiet mountain jewel
Wayne was a gracious host & was there if we needed him. The cabin was well stocked with everything needed to make our trip to glacier enjoyable. The owners thought of everything we might need; from bear spray to backpack & binoculars! We will always treasure our stay at this cabin & hope to return.

Celebrating 20 years at Bear Creek Cabin
Just pulling up to the cabin we knew we picked the right place for our stay. The cabin and surrounding area is absolutely beautiful. The cabin was extremely clean and stocked with everything we needed. We were surprised with a card, charcuterie platter and bottle of wine for our anniversary! Wayne came to meet us as soon as we were around long enough for him to do so (we left early every day and returned late). He was very friendly and welcoming. He also came to boy us adieu with MJ. The cabin was so quiet and peaceful and we wished so badly we could bottle up the smell of the surrounding forest and bring it back with us! We enjoyed our stay so much and when we come back to Glacier National Park again we will certainly book with Bear Creek Cabin. Thank you for everything!

Wonderful Mountain Cabin
The Bear Creek Cabin was the perfect place our Glacier National Park adventure! The cabin was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Wayne was very friendly, and checked in several times to make sure we were doing ok. The location of the cabin was ideal as well, allowing us to be able to travel to all of the park entrances with a reasonable drive. We would strongly recommend The Bear Creek Cabin and hope to return soon!
