Glacier Getaway

This property may be the best vrbo we've ever stayed at. It was super clean, super comfortable and super quiet. The hosts were very friendly and responded immediately to all of our questions. It was in a great location surrounded by farm animals. It was also very close to Glacier so we did day trips there to hike in different areas. It was a great relaxing vacation! We would highly recommend booking this vrbo to anyone considering visiting Glacier!!!

Loved our stay!

We were close to Glacier and everything we wanted to do. Loved having the goats to play with and the horse on other side of the house. Marni was really helpful with ideas for restaurants and shopping. The house was clean and we were greeted with fresh baked cookies and a bottle of wine. We cant wait to come back!

Great stay in the Glacier National Park/Columbia Falls area

We had a terrific stay at Marni and Bill's place. It was within about 20 minutes of the park and a perfect place to relax after long days of hiking. Everything was new and very clean.

We loved our stay here!! Marni was wonderful and so friendly. Her chocolate chip cookies were delicious. So peaceful and beautiful on the farm and the accommodations were spotless. The highlight for our whole family was the baby goats! They were adorable and Marni came out and let us hold them. They were so friendly and cuddly! Definitely one of our most memorable and best stays!
