About this property
The Montana Retreat - Gateway to Glacier National Park
This cozy Montana home is your base to explore Glacier National Park, Whitefish, Whitefish Mountain Resort, Flathead Lake, Flathead Valley, Salish/Kootenai country, and much more! Located in a quiet, rural area 3 miles west of Kalispell, the home is a warm 3 bed/2 bath offering bright, southern exposure and views of Flathead Valley and the Swan Mountain Range.
Our home is centrally located with limitless possibilities just a short drive away:
- 3 miles from Kalispell - 3 miles from Rebecca Farms - 4 miles to Foys Lake - 18 miles to Whitefish - 26 miles to Whitefish Mountain Resort - 14 miles to Flathead Lake - 14 miles to Glacier International Airport - 32 miles to Blacktail Mountain Ski Area - 45 miles to West Glacier (Glacier National Park) - 91 miles to East Glacier
Endless outdoor opportunities await here: skiing, fishing, hiking, camping, boating, cycling, photography, or just relaxing along a stream or lake.
The house is a cozy south-facing home on a hillside overlooking the southern Flathead Valley and Swan Mountain Range. The property covers over an acre and a half of pasture with privacy trees around the house. The exterior offers a paved driveway, patio, perimeter deck, and yard area with a fire pit and seating.
Inside you will find 3 private bedrooms sharing two bathrooms as well as the living room, eat in kitchen, (new appliances installed October 2021) sitting room and laundry. Upstairs, one bedroom has closet space and a Queen size bed while the second is smaller with no closet and full-size bed with built in drawer storage. The downstairs bedroom has a closet and plenty of storage space with its own dedicated bathroom.
The home is a split level, and the washer and dryer as well as the third bedroom and second bathroom are on the lower level. There is also a living space with TV and work space downstairs.
Other areas we would recommend are Kootenai River Falls (Libby) at 96 miles, the National Bison Range (Moiese) at 57 miles or Polebridge (NW entrance to GNP) at 57 miles. To the west the country is dotted with many lakes within an hour that offer plenty of recreation opportunities and easy access for boaters. These areas are generally less busy and make a great addition to a Glacier National Park visit without all the traffic. Popular lakes are Bitteroot (20 minutes), McGregor (30 minutes), and the Thompson chain lakes (50 minutes).
