Love this place!

This place is amazing. Remote, but with great amenities (we had a couple hot days and needed the air-conditioning, which is unusual to have this far north). The view is spectacular and we spent hours on the deck in awe of the mountains. We will definitely be back!

Nothing short of amazing

We rented this cabin in hopes of being away from all the hustle and bustle. That is exactly what we experienced on the side of the mountain. This cabin was exceptionally clean, furnished and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay there. Thanks for an amazing stay!

Fantastic cabin!

This property was a highlight of our Glacier vacation! It is new, clean, well-stocked, and in a fabulous location. Our favorite part was the front porch. We were out there for coffee, meals, playing cards, watching a storm pass through, and star gazing. Rob was great at communicating and we found all of the directions to be clear. Easy five stars!

Truly Serene

This cabin above Polebridge is simply amazing. It’s just so comfortable and serene. The views off the porch are expansive. Polebridge is a special place at which life slows down and one can truly relax and disconnect from the busy and connect with nature. The mercantile bakery is so delicious. The drinks and a meal at the saloon are excellent. Bowman Lake is beautiful and a hike to Huckleberry Lookout was perfect. I give this cabin my highest recommendation.
