This peaceful cabin is truly wonderful year round. In the warmer months, hike in Glacier National Park or the Badger, bike the iconic Going-to-the-Sun road and more, kayak in Two Medicine or other nearby lakes, or sip a glass of wine and watch the sunset over the mountains. In the winter months, cook and bake in the kitchen, do puzzles, take naps in the extremely comfy beds, go snowshoeing or cross-country skiing on the nearby trails, backcountry ski, head over to Whitefish for resort skiing, and enjoy the aurora borealis and star gazing. Come use our speedy Starlink wifi to work remotely for the week in a beautiful wonderland.
The cabin is about 1/4 mile off of Highway 2, accessed via a gravel road, and only 1 mile to East Glacier Park!
Living Room:
You enter the cabin into an open space with the living room on your left and kitchen on your right. The living room is very cozy with a futon couch and a lounge chair, the perfect spot to watch for wildlife, admire the surrounding mountains, work on a puzzle, play music through the JBL speaker or read a book. We also provide yoga mats and a foam roller for a good stretch after a long day in the mountains.

Outdoor Space:
The property has a gorgeous 40 foot waterfall on it, accessible for viewing from above, or with a very steep walk down to the pool at its base. Locals frequently stop to take a look, especially in spring when it is raging, and we now share the falls with a neighbor as well. The cabin is about 200 yards further down the road. The outdoor space is shared with other guests as well, but you do you have your own private seating area by your cabin.
All sorts of wildlife have been seen from the windows, wildflowers abound in spring, and serviceberries can be picked right outside the door in late summer. Bears (we provide bear spray!), deer, coyotes, and a diverse array of birds are abundant, making this a hiking and wildlife lover's paradise. The cabin is only 2 miles from the park as a crow flies, and just 3 from the nearest trailhead, and one of our favorite hikes. We are about 1 mile from East Glacier Park and its shops, restaurants, Amtrak station, and lodge, the gateway to the gorgeous and quiet Two Medicine region of the park. Take a 45 minute drive to Saint Mary to check out the east entrance of the renowned Going-To-The-Sun road. Or continue on another 30 minutes to the Many Glacier Hotel. The Canadian border is just shy of an hour away, making this a great place to stop on your way up to Banff or Calgary!

General Information:
We have very spotty cell phone reception on the property but we do have Starlink internet. Calls and texts can be made while connected to wifi. There is no TV in our cabin, we have found that our guests love to unplug and have an adventure! Fishing in the local area is tremendous, access to Glacier, the Lewis and Clark National Forest, and tribal lands is unparalleled from here- it is our ideal location.
We also have another (larger) cabin for rent just down the road with terrific mountain views in case you have a larger party or event and are looking for a bit more space- ask us about booking both!
I have been teaching yoga for about 10 years now and love to offer private yoga classes or cacao ceremonies upon request. Please message me if you are interested and we can talk through details. Public yoga classes are held every Monday night at the Community Center from 5:15-6:15pm.
Massages can be arranged with enough heads up. Reach out for more information.
We offer different packages for special occasions (birthdays, anniversaries, elopements, holidays, etc). If you are interested, please reach out and we can chat more!

**For travels during October-April, please be mindful that you are booking for a time when the weather can be seasonally unpredictable. We love this area for the great cross-country/backcountry skiing, snowshoeing and aurora borealis viewing. Please be aware that the temperature can drop below 0 and there can be very strong wind gusts in the area. The roads are plowed and maintained, however, if there is weather in the forecast, you are encouraged to have proper snow tires/chains/4WD to ensure safe travels.
Notes on seasonal animals/insects:
Bears are frequent visitors to the property. They are most active in early spring and late summer/fall, but they are seen on the property throughout the summer. Please be alert, keep all food and food containers inside, and carry bear spray. There are also wolf, moose, coyote, cow, and other wild animals that roam.
As far as insects go, spring is a popular time for mosquitos. Bring layers and bug spray. They mostly choose to hang out around dusk/dawn, so we try to stay inside during those times. August-September is prime moth season around here. Bears can eat up to ~20,000 per day, so we try to live with them rather than against them. They can sneak into the cabin occasionally, but they are harmless. September-October is black fly season.
If you have any questions, you are always welcome to reach out!
**In April, once the ground thaws, we will be building a yurt near our cabin. We anticipate it being complete by mid-May, but will update the listing accordingly. We aim to build when guests are gone for the day in efforts to be the least disruptive.
