About this property

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 only 15 minutes from town. 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, no pet, 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.

The cabin will be cleaned to out top notch standards including disinfection of surfaces as well as washing and cleaning towels, 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 free WiFI and limited cell service 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 gourmet 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 larch trees while watching 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.

This was my third stay here. It's an ideal spot in which to relax after days spent exploring Glacier National Park. The cabin's setting and location could not be better: beautiful, tranquil and convenient. Charming and inviting, the cabin is comfortable, spotless and well-stocked. The hosts have not overlooked a single detail.

Tranquil Abode

This log cabin immensely surpassed my expectation. Each evening we could recharge the batteries of our souls by lounging on the porch with such a view of the lake. A few times we shared the lake view with a pair of Loons, which are not available to us on Missouri.

Fantastic experience

This is wonderful place in a wonderful location. The "cabin" is spacious, clean, well-mainainted, and modern -- while keeping a bit of rustic/nostalgic charm (e.g., a very cool, restored 1951 gas stove in the kitchen). The lake access is fantastic (we rented a paddle board and kayaks from a nearby provider), and the resident loons are wonderful bonus. Like others, our only regret is that we could not stay longer! Stay here if you get the chance!

Perfectly peaceful

Beautiful property with everything we could possibly need. Perfect for my party of 6 to include young adult and teen aged children. We had 2 rainy days that we were able to make the best of playing games and enjoying the serenity of lake watching birds and catching perch from the row boat. Perfect distance to GNP for daily hikes. We absolutely loved this property!

Beautiful home with fabulous lake view

This home is gorgeous. My husband, adult daughter and I spent 4 nights in the Serene Lakefront Cabin. We used it as a base to explore the West side of GNP. It has easy access on a good road to the West Glacier entrance. After a day of hiking and driving, we were delighted to return "home" to this beautiful, comfortable and well equipped home. The kitchen is well stocked and it is easy to prepare a proper meal, whilst enjoying the lake view. We made use of the row boat, fishing equipment, binoculars and bear spray. I have no hesitation in highly recommending this VRBO.
