Glacier Park Montana Lookout Tower

This 2 bedroom, 3.5 bath home, sits high on a bluff overlooking the Middle Fork of the Flathead River. The upper deck looks East to the river and to Scalplock Mountain Fire Lookout and Glacier National Park ! There is a path to the river, where a lovely beach provides a great place to picnic, swim or fish. Glacier National Park is directly across the river. The cabin is located half way between East and West Glacier off of HWY 2, so it makes it easy to visit both sides of the park.
Time to unplug and enjoy all the beauty that surrounds you! There is no cell phone coverage at the cabin and no land line for a phone. Good Cell coverage is available 25 miles east or west of the cabin. The Internet is Starlink and WiFi calling generally works okay. There is streaming available on the 4 TV’s in the house. The basement TV is a big screen TV with a DVD player and an extensive dvd library.
The kitchen has all modern appliances and lots of fun cooking gadgets. There is a grill on the upper deck for you to use. There are spices and condiments for your use. There is a Keurig Coffee maker and pods are provided including decaf.
This is a perfect spot for a honeymoon or for 2 couples or a family of 4 to relax in all the splendor of Glacier National Park and the surrounding area. There are 2 bedrooms with queen size beds. A comfortable blowup mattress is available if someone wants to use the basement as a separate bedroom. Whitefish Ski Resort has lots of summer activities and is about one hour from the house.
The house is well maintained and is cleaned thoroughly between guests.
The owner is happy to help you with your daily itineraries!
Welcome to my home❤️

Amazing!
We absolutely LOVED staying here! Suanne was a fantastic host. The house is beautiful and the views were just completely stunning. The photos online do not do this place justice. Everything was immaculately clean and the hummingbirds were buzzing around everywhere. We will definitely be back.

Firelook on the way to Heaven
The outside of the house looked like a firework perched on the side of the mountain half-way between East and West Glacier NP. The inside was pure luxury. Our host was outstanding and offered every amenity you could imagine and even several you would never have thought of but they made the trip that much better. Loved this VRBO!

Amazing Stay
We loved this home! The view was incredible! The home was beautiful and well kept! The bed my husband and I slept in was comfortable! It was closer to other homes than we thought from the listing but we never saw another soul while there! I would definitely book this one again if given the opportunity! The host was very kind and responsive!! Do yourself favor and book it!!

Fantastic Stay!
My niece and I loved staying at this place. It is located between East and West Glacier which us perfect if you are wanting to hike both sides like we did. The house is as advertised - beautiful view from the back deck. Very peaceful. The owner really does provide plenty of amenities especially in the kitchen, not just tools but spices, seasonings, and paper products. The house was very clean and there were plenty of maps, books about Montana, games, and movies for our enjoyment. We would stay here again.

Perfect Grandparent/Grandson Days at Glacier
Our trip was a birthday present for our grandson who at 14 said he wanted a trip to Glacier. We needed a house where my husband could spend the day while we hiked all day. This house was absolutely perfect. We all enjoyed the vistas overlooking the river. My husband said the view from the MBR was the best we've had in all of our years staying at VRBO's. Indeed - it was. As I wrote in the trip journal, our last day allowed me to sit on the deck and have a second cup of coffee. Next vacation will be with people who want that second or third cup of coffee - and not getting out the door at 5:30 am to be at Logan's Pass! We will definitely be back - without the teenager.

Perfect Mountain Views
We loved staying here. The views were amazing, the sound of the river was peaceful and when we headed inside the home was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. It was a wonderful place to relax after day trips into Glacier.

Incredible. Maybe best VRBO we have stayed
The pictures do not do this place justice. Not sure if pictures could ever capture the beauty of the location. The setting is as perfect as can be. The house is warm, clean and inviting. The deck is stunning.. There are so many extra touches to list. All of the essentials were of high quality. Dana was so helpful and easy to deal with. She even met us at the property to get us settled. My family actual wanted to hurry back to the house from Glacier so we could enjoy it some nights. I cannot say enough great things about the place. When we come back to Glacier we will only stay here. In fact I would love to build this house in my mountains in North Carolina.

This home was beyond our expectations. Flawless, beautiful, best VRBO I've personally enjoyed. WOW
Quality, beautiful, relaxing and needed. What an ideal location for Glacier NP activities, easy access to Whitefish or the East side of the Park. Absolutely fantastic for a couple to get away and enjoy the beauty of Glacier!
