Abbot Creek Cottage, Only 10 Minutes from Glacier National Park!

This quaint cottage is a cozy base for your next Glacier Park vacation. Come for a rejuvenating, getaway. Homey 2 bedroom cottage that sleeps 4 comfortably. 10 minutes from West Glacier National Park and 10 minutes from Hungry Horse Reservoir.

This updated cottage has slate floors in the entryway, solid wood floors in the kitchen, and original wood floors in the living room. The living room has a gas fireplace to take the chill out of the cool evenings. A large covered patio offers glimpses of Abbot Creek and is the perfect place to 'wine' down after a day of sightseeing in Glacier Park, hiking, climbing, fishing or visiting Hungry Horse Dam a short 5 miles from the Cottage. Every Thursday evening at 5:30 there is a Columbia Falls Community Market complete with farmers market, ice cream, live music and dancing and micro breweries. One may even spend a day shopping in Columbia Falls, Whitefish, Kalispell, or attend a play at the Bigfork Summer Theatre.. These are all well within an hour of the Cottage.
The Cottage has private off-street parking large enough to accommodate a boat and trailer for use on the many area lakes.

The property has 70 feet of beautiful Abbot Creek running along its southern border. Abbot Creek is a year-round babbling mountain stream that can soothe your stress and rejuvenate your soul. My 11 siblings and I fished this lovely stream when we were youngsters! We are working on making the Creek accessible to our guests but it is not yet complete. Enjoy the sounds and sights for now!!

This home sits on the original homestead property and belonged to my Great Aunt who was a Martin and the daughter of the original homesteaders of Martin City. Martin City is the small town nearest the property. Gabriela’s Father helped set the first turbine in the historic Hungry Horse Dam which is nearby.

Enjoy a scenic 10 minute drive to Glacier National Park. The Middle Fork of the Flathead river runs about a mile from the Cottage and is a wonderful rafting, and kayaking venue. Columbia Falls, Whitefish, and Kalispell, are all within a 15-40 minute drive.

Amenities include:
Large kitchen/dining area
Well stocked kitchen with appliances, utensils, dishes, silverware and towels.
Some basic foodstuffs
Roomy living room
2 bedrooms with queen beds
Bathroom with a walk-in shower

Abbot Creek Cottage is a jewel, exceptionally maintained and outfitted. Everything we needed and much more were thoughtfully provided. A lot of work goes into this property with its beautifully groomed grounds and intriguing flower beds. Located between Columbia Falls and West Glacier it couldn't have been easier to pick up supplies and access the park. Thank you, Gabriela! We had a terrific and restful vacation!

Great place near Glacier National Park

This cottage is in a very convenient and really nice setting just a few miles from the west entrance to Glacier NP. It was immaculately clean, very nicely equipped and furnished, and with lovely outdoor garden and lawn area. You do get some traffic noise from the nearby highway during the daytime, but by evening traffic levels fall to low levels and were never an issue. We hope to return to this place!
