Immaculate Large Home Near Glacier - 2 King Beds & Exceptionally Well-Equipped!

WELCOME TO GLACIER COUNTRYSIDE ESCAPE!

Our personally owned, 2,750-square-foot country home is a wonderful place for a family vacation or getaway with friends! Located approximately 25 minutes from Glacier National Park's West Entrance, the home offers beautiful mountain views, a spacious great room with a rock fireplace, a gourmet kitchen, two king beds, and a large covered patio.

We've been welcoming guests since 2009 and take pride in keeping our home exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We've tried to provide all the conveniences and little extras that we appreciate when traveling ourselves.

We love the location—you can enjoy the peaceful countryside while still being close to Glacier National Park, Whitefish, Columbia Falls, and everything the Flathead Valley has to offer.

A SPACIOUS GREAT ROOM

The large, open great room is one of our favorite features of the house! It has a beautiful gas rock fireplace, vaulted tray ceiling, comfortable furnishings, and large windows overlooking the surrounding countryside and mountains.

After a day of hiking or sightseeing, you can relax by the fireplace or watch your favorite shows on the 52-inch smart TV.

We provide access to at least one streaming service, such as Netflix, Hulu, or Disney+. You're also welcome to log in to your own streaming accounts; just remember to log out before leaving.

The great room opens to the kitchen and has direct access to the large covered back patio, making it a wonderful place to spend time together.

A KITCHEN BUILT FOR COOKING

We have a large gourmet kitchen with plenty of room for several people to work together. Whether you're preparing an early breakfast before heading into Glacier, packing lunches for a hike, or cooking dinner at home, you'll appreciate having a kitchen that is truly equipped for cooking.

Kitchen highlights include:

• A spacious island and large bar with seating for seven
• Granite countertops and real oak cabinets
• Stainless steel appliances, including a five-burner cooktop, double convection wall ovens, and dishwasher
• Plenty of dishes, silverware, cookware, utensils, and kitchen gadgets so you can prepare and enjoy full meals without constantly washing dishes
• An assortment of cooking basics, generally including salt, pepper, spices, flour, sugar, vegetable oil, and condiments. You're welcome to use whatever is available during your stay.

One of my favorite spots is the cozy breakfast nook, where you can enjoy a cup of coffee while looking out at the mountains.

DINING ROOM

The separate dining room has a warm Old World feel, with a large dining table that seats eight. It's a great place for family meals, games, or simply gathering around the table after a day of exploring.

A large window looks out toward the beautiful pine trees.

THREE COMFORTABLE BEDROOMS

We place particular importance on good beds and bedding! Our home has two king beds and three twin beds, with crisp, white, high-quality linens from luxury hotel suppliers such as Standard Textile.

We also provide extra blankets and pillows so you can make the beds as comfortable as you like.

PRIMARY SUITE

The spacious primary suite is set apart from the main living area and other bedrooms, providing a comfortable place to relax.

Features include:

• King-size bed with crisp, white, hotel-quality linens
• Large windows with beautiful mountain views
• Door opening directly onto the covered back patio
• A twin-size daybed with a real mattress—a comfortable spot to curl up with a book, enjoy the views, or provide an additional sleeping space
• Large private bathroom with two separate vanities and a shower
• Corner jetted Jacuzzi tub with windows overlooking the mountains

It's a wonderful place to unwind after a long day of hiking!

GUEST BEDROOMS AND BATHROOM

The two additional bedrooms are spacious and comfortably furnished.

• One bedroom has a king-size bed and direct access to the guest bathroom.
• The other has two twin beds, which can also be set up together as a third king bed upon advance request.

Both rooms have the same quality white linens, along with extra blankets and pillows.

The guest bathroom has a full-size bathtub and shower, with two sinks—one in a separate area to make getting ready easier when several people are sharing the bathroom.

There's also a convenient half bathroom off the hallway near the laundry room.

A queen-size air mattress and Pack 'n Play are available for flexible sleeping arrangements within the home's seven-person maximum.

OFFICE, LAUNDRY, AND OTHER COMFORTS

French doors lead into a separate office, providing a convenient place if you need to catch up on a little work during your vacation.

Other amenities and little touches include:

• Central air conditioning for warm summer days
• High-speed wireless internet throughout the home
• Laundry room with a large sink, washer, and dryer
• Plenty of quality towels, including extras
• Toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, hand soap, and laundry detergent
• Hair dryers, sewing kit, and first-aid kit
• Picnic basket, cooler, and backpack for your outings
• Bear spray for hiking in Glacier Country
• Extra blankets and pillows for added comfort

We've tried to think of the things that are easy to forget when packing or that you might not want to purchase for a weeklong vacation.

OUTDOOR LIVING

Step outside onto the large covered back patio to enjoy the fresh Montana air and beautiful views of the surrounding countryside and mountains. It's a great place for morning coffee, an outdoor meal, or relaxing after a busy day exploring.

The home has its own designated fenced yard and outdoor spaces, with trees and landscaping providing privacy from the nearby residence.

A PERSONAL NOTE FROM YOUR HOSTS

We purchased this home in 2009 and began welcoming vacation guests that very first summer. As longtime local residents, we love sharing the beauty of the Flathead Valley with visitors from all over the country and the world.

Most of our guests come to experience Glacier National Park, but there's so much more to explore in northwest Montana! A few weeks before your arrival, we'll send you a local guidebook with recommendations for some of our favorite things to see and do, including hikes, outdoor activities, restaurants, and places to visit outside the national park.

We take pride in keeping our home exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Over the years we've been blessed with wonderful guests and reviews, and we continue to look for ways to make the home even better.

We hope Glacier Countryside Escape will be a comfortable place for your family or friends to enjoy a wonderful Montana vacation. We'd love to host you!
