About this property

Private Guest House - Ten Minutes to Glacier National Park

  • The Spotted Bear guest house is located on the edge of a meadow along Spotted Bear Road in a private setting on the Foley Family's Abbott Valley Homestead. With three bedrooms, (King, Queen, Full) two baths, a fully appointed kitchen, dining area and living room with fireplace, this is a great place to fully relax after a day in the Park! Extra amenities include a full laundry, WiFi, seasoned larch for firepit and complimentary bear spray.

    The Spotted Bear has a large yard, colorful flowers, with a fire pit and a patio off the kitchen with a gas BBQ. All you need are groceries and beverages. Shopping is local and very convenient. This is an older home that has been fully refurbished, dedicated to guests, with all modern conveniences for a great vacation.

    Abbott Valley Homestead offers seven vacation rentals with one, two and three bedroom rentals each located in a private setting near creeks, forests and meadows, all comfortably convenient to the Park. Each vacation home has a fully appointed kitchen, full bath(s), linens, laundry facilities, electric heat and some with fireplaces. Two cabins, Mickeys (2br/1ba) and Baptiste (1+br/1ba) are authentic homestead log cabins, rustic but fully updated with all modern amenities. Millhouse, Spotted Bear and Jaybird's are three bedroom/2bath homes. The interiors are beautifully updated. Cell service is good and WiFi is free. Each unit offers privacy, however, several can be rented with a group in mind for family reunions and weddings.
    Located two miles off U.S. Highway 2, eight miles southwest of Glacier National Park and 15 miles from Whitefish and Glacier International Airport, our vacation homes provide a comfortable base camp for exploring the best that northwest Montana has to offer.

    More To Know

Great Cabin for family vacation

We enjoyed our stay! The cabin was perfect for our family. We appreciated that there was bear spray to borrow for hiking, my kids loved the swing, camp fire ring and playing corn hole. They also liked having more room to space out. It was a great place to visit! We also loved that is was in a close location to the West Glacier entrance to Glacier National Park.

Perfect for location and space for privacy as well as a small group of six.

We stayed two nights and had virtually everything we needed to get to and from our daily activities as well as take care of ourselves while at the property. Loved the remote location that is, at the same time, close to anything we needed or intended to do. Doyle was very responsive when we asked a question. We would stay here again.
