"Decided to go to Glacier very late and looked very hard for a great place to stay and be immersed in the Beauty and greatness of Glacier National Park.Wasn’t sure exactly what the cabin would be like until I actually opened the door.Very quaint with a natural feel of a wilderness.Bedrooms overlooking the lake, natural birch staircase are a few of the very special touches that made me request the opportunity to rent this beautiful personal property."
