A Serene Lake Front Cabin Minutes from West Glacier National Park

A classic Montana log cabin sitting beside a beautiful mountain lake is what you'll find at Serene Lakefront Cabin. Experience the wonder of nature with wildlife all around. Deer, beaver, bear, wolves and otter make their home in this mountain paradise. Hear the call of the loons, the screech of the eagles and the stunning silence of the night. Gather around and play some games or relax on the large open front porch as you watch the sunset across the lake. You can row our boat out on the lake to catch some cutthroat trout or bass and there is easy fishing for perch right off your own private dock.

Our no-smoking property is ideal for groups of 2 to 4 people and can accommodate up to 6 people for a small additional fee. We have WiFi and a smart TV for your use.

Special COVID Cleaning - Our cleaning company will be doing extra disinfection of surfaces as well as washing and cleaning all sheets and pillowcases between guests.

Serene Lakefront cabin is conveniently located 20 minutes from Glacier Park International Airport and 10 minutes from the charming town of Columbia Falls. Only a short drive (20 minutes) to the west entrance of Glacier National Park, our cabin is perfectly situated to allow you to enjoy all the recreational opportunities the area has to offer.

The cabin is located on Spoon Lake, right off the paved North Fork Road and only a few minutes from the western park boundary. Our location offers convenient access to all the hiking, fishing, rafting and recreational spots along the North Fork of the Flathead River. From your base at Serene Lakefront Cabin you can set out and explore. Hike the national park trails and take in the stunning beauty of Kintla and Bowman Lakes in the less traveled portion of the park. From highway 2, you can reach Apgar Village at the main west entrance to Glacier National Park. From there, drive the spectacular "Going to the Sun" road to Logan Pass where mountain goats roam free.

Serene Lakefront Cabin is conveniently located only 9 miles from Columbia Falls. Explore and shop in the historic western town of Kalispell, just 25 miles away, and enjoy the charm and culture of Whitefish only 18 miles away. Flathead Lake, the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, is just 35 miles to the south.

Back at Serene Lakefront Cabin the pace can slow, allowing all your cares to melt away. The peaceful waters of Spoon Lake are a perfect setting with no motorboats or jet skis to disturb the wildlife. Enjoy limited cell service (mostly text and voice) depending on your provider, the time of day and the weather. We focus on the outdoor experience and our beautiful cabin provides the opportunity to come close together as family and friends. You can cook in the easy access kitchen while you watch the activities on the lake. Barbecue on the gas grill or play games after a fine day of hiking, shopping or exploring. Use the convenient downstairs bedroom complete with queen bed or climb the stairs to the spectacular lake view from the master bedroom in the comfort of our king bed. Kids (and kids at heart) will enjoy the twin beds in the other upstairs bedroom.

Enjoy lower rates by booking stay dates in May or early June as well as September and October. These times offer a quieter and slower paced experience by avoiding the crowds of the peak season. In the spring you can catch hungry fish and watch as the wildlife emerges from the long winter. In the fall enjoy the colors of the turning tamarack trees while watching the wildlife prepare for the coming winter.

Please note: Our cabin may not be appropriate for those who have difficulties walking on slopes or stairs.

If our calendar is full for the dates you are interested in, or if you have a larger group that would like two cabins, we recommend you check the availability of the adjacent cabin at Vrbo listing #905880.

Pure bliss!
The cabin and hosts are first-rate. The location on a quiet, tranquil lake is gorgeous and the ideal spot for relaxing after spending days exploring Glacier National Park. An architecture delight, the cabin features upscale materials, finishes, hardware and fixtures. It is inviting, comfortable, spotless, and very well stocked. Nothing is left to chance: the hosts have thought of every detail. Apparently, even the owl perched -- at eye-level -- in a tree just outside the master-bedroom window. This place is a treasure.

Lake and Mountain Paradise
This house is spectacular. It is clean, quiet, spacious, comfortable, well-equipped, beautifully situated, and close to incredible mountain landscapes. The view looking across the lake is stunning. The house came with everything we needed for cooking, beds were comfortable, bathrooms nicely appointed, and property well-maintained. I've stayed at outstanding VRBOs all over the world and this was my favorite of all.

Best Rental on Earth
This is, hands down, the best rental we have ever stayed at, and we have stayed at A LOT of places! This place has everything you need. It is peaceful and relaxing. We spent so much time sitting on porch watching the water and listening to the Loons. We even took out the boat. It was a great place to stay after spending time in Glacier. Conveniently located to the west entrance. PERFECTION

Perfect little bit of Montana Heaven
This cabin is perfection. The photos do minimal justice. The lake is peaceful and quiet. It’s super stocked with all essentials, more than essentials. They provide tons of recommendations to make the most of the area and maximize your experience at GNP. Twenty minutes to the park. My only feedback is that they require you to send a signed hard copy of the contract which was cumbersome if you aren’t home with printer access. The grill needed to be cleaned. Everything else is amazing.

Perfect spot for relaxing or visiting glacier park
This is the best vacation rental we’ve had in years. Perfect, quiet spot that is also convenient to Glacier Park’s western entrance, and reasonably close to groceries and other amenities. Cabin is spacious, immaculate, and very comfortable, with a lovely view from the large upstairs bedroom and porch. The loons on the lake are delightful to watch. Property owner is very quick to communicate and answer questions, and the cabin is well stocked (check in before going grocery shopping- we added to the supply of condiments and pancake mix unnecessarily!). Perfect whether you are selling a quiet, restful retreat or a home base for hiking/outdoor activities. We didn’t want to leave!
