Glacier vacation & Joe’s Saloon

If you’re looking for the best possible experience one could receive then no reason to look anywhere else. Robert and Jennifer understand customer service like no other. From the time we landed until the time we left, they were wonderful. Made us feel at home the moment we met them. Robert’s vision for hospitality and creativity was amazing. We stayed in “Joe’s Saloon”. It was perfect. They have taken the time to decorate them up according to the theme. Not some cheezy interior design, no, they made it very nice. The evening gatherings at the fire pit was spot on. We met some very nice people from around the U.S. that we hope to stay in touch with. If anyone has anything negative to say, they are way off!!! Nothing negative about Fort Williams. Oh and glacier was our favorite place to visit so far!!! Beautiful.

AMAZING VACATION

If you’re planning a trip to Glacier National Park, I would highly encourage you booking your stay with Robert and Jennifer. They put customer satisfaction as a top priority. My husband and I stayed 6 nights at Joe’s saloon and everything was perfect. They even provide a car rental service if you need a rental while on vacation. The drive to GNP is a short 10-15 min drive to the west gate. We will definitely be going back.

Easy comfort

Awesome location, fire pit out front, good decor and memorabilia from music career. The bidet is a feature we like and do not see at most US facilities. The hosts were friendly and available to help with questions.

Memorable

I love when property owners understand it is more than just the basics like having a clean place and comfortable bed (which they more than delivered), the additional attention to detail is what will make this a place you will return to if visiting the West Glacier area. The adorable western town theme, decor in the unit, everything you need to stay comfortably. And the owners are super cool too. We will definitely return.

Stayed 2 nights in May 2024

Great accommodation on westside of GNP

Nice location on the westside of Glacier National Park. Owners were very friendly. We loved the decorations in Joe's Saloon. Very comfortable accommodations and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!

This place is fantastic and the owners are awesome!!

Last week I was traveling with a buddy from the east coast to Salt Lake City and headed to Spokane, Washington... seeing the national parks on the way. We stopped in for a night's stay at Joe's Saloon on Thursday night July 20th 2023. The place is awesome and the owners are fantastic people. We absolutely loved Joe's Saloon and all of the heart and soul the owners have put into their properties. Not a single detail is missed and every base is covered by the owners who make your stay an exceptional experience. I spoke to them at great length and also met Nelson, the chocolate lab and Mandy as well as Mittens the polydactyl kitty, who are all there to greet you and visit. I give this place five stars all around, there is nothing negative to say about the property nor the owners. It is first class all the way around and a beautiful location in Montana just outside of Glacier National Park. I hated to leave as our stay at Joe's Saloon was near the end of our trip to Montana but I would love to come back and stay again one day when I come back to Montana to explore more. A big thank you for such a great time!

Amazing!!

The property is in an area that is not crowded but close enough to grab a quick dinner or breakfast before heading to GNP. The tiny homes were decorated in this western theme that you could tell was hand picked for each individual time home. We stayed in Joes Salon and it was decked out to a T! We loved it! The owners were VERY accommodating and would help you with ideas of things to do or how to get tickets for GOTSR. We used the car rental services through them which was a lot less of pain then trying to rent from the airport. When scouting the area while driving around I couldn’t find anywhere else I would have rather stayed while visiting GNP. I thought I would regret not staying in the park but after staying here and seeing the places in the park (they are old and dingy on the inside ) I know I made the right decision. Can’t wait to return!!

Best Place to stay in Columbia Falls

The property was so clean, everything was in a proper place and easy to find. If you had forgotten a toothbrush or other essentials, they had a supply for their guests. It was so peaceful and an enjoyable stay. Jennifer and Robert were great hosts. We stayed three nights and would not hesitate to stay at Fort Williamson again.

AMAZING

Great hosts (and their dogs too!), close to tons of activities, Joe’s Saloon was so much bigger with so many more amenities than we expected. 10/10 would stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Robert & Jennifer Williamson

Welcome to Fort Williamson! We are a friendly couple that loves to Host. We originally stumbled into Hosting because of a loft we had above our garage. Well that loft ended up being a hit and we added 2 more additional spaces for guests to rent. As hosting grew on us over the years, we decided to expand. In May of 2019 we broke ground to begin the building of Fort Williamson Glacier Vacation Rentals. We completed building by June of 2020 and were able to open our doors and begin accepting guests. Fort Williamson offers unique tiny home cabin lodging in the setting of an Old West Town. The different themed units are a Sheriff 's Jail, Roses Place, Joe's Saloon, Madam Woman's Inn, and Kim's Trading Post. In our off time from hosting we love to enjoy the outdoors ourselves. There is nothing better than being deep in the mountains on a trail or on one of the many rivers or lakes with our Kayaks in the summer. Our properties are conveniently located along US Hwy 2 between Columbia Falls, Montana and Glacier National Park. The Park’s west entrance is only 15 minutes away. The Glacier International Airport is only 15 minutes away. The town of Columbia Falls, that has everything you will need is only minutes away. Feel free to reach out and ask us any questions you might have.

Why they chose this property

We are a One Stop Shop with both Cabins and Cars. We have a Fantastic Central Location as our properties are conveniently located right along US Hwy 2 between Columbia Falls, Montana and Glacier National Park. The Park’s west entrance and west Glacier Amtrak station is only 15 minutes away. The Glacier International Airport is only 15 minutes away. The town of Columbia Falls, that has everything you will need is just minutes away. Additionally we are attenuative onsite hosts which is very rare to find these days. We are always nearby or onsite just in case something is needed.

What makes this property unique

We are the only Themed Lodging in the area. We have 5 individual cabins onsite that are built in the setting of an Old West Town. Each cabin at Fort Williamson Glacier Vacation Rentals is completely unique in it's own way. In addition to cabins we offer onsite Car Rentals at a discounted rate through Glacier Specialty Car Rentals. To top it off when you book both a cabin and car with us we will provide a complimentary shuttle service that can pick you up at the Glacier Airport or West Glacier Train Station and bring you to your Cabin and Car.
