Glacier Guides Lodge

Glacier Guides Lodge

8/10 Good
"The facility is rustic but clean. It sits up in the woods about 1/4 mile up from the road. The girls who did the housekeeping were very friendly and asked me twice if I needed anything when I saw them as I was going out. They kept the rooms very nice. Brian had zero people skills and not very friendly. Maybe he has had a recent traumatic experience in his life and is not at his best. Or, maybe he is shy or doesn't like being in social situations Well, then he is in the wrong business Walked in to breakfast and said good morning and he returned the same response. The air he gave off was something like, "I can't wait to get out of here." But I would stay there again in that same area."

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed in the main lodge building. The property also has multiple cabins. It is very safe to walk around the area, and there is a big playground for kids. The room was very clean and warm. There was a common area upstairs where full kitchen service was available - microwave, sink, oven, toaster, etc. Laundry was also available on the first floor, but I never heard any noise outside my room, which was on the first floor. The location is perfect since it only takes about 5 minutes to drive to the Glacier National Park entrance, and the gas serviceand genral stores are nearby - less than 1 min driving distance. I stayed at the end of September, and it would be great if you stay there in the summer season. The property also offers multiple outdoor activities, such as rafting and hiking."

Belton Chalet

10/10 Excellent
"This is one of the original lodges build for the park. Squeaky floors, no soundproofing. No hooks, fridge, tv or closet in our room. With that said, it was charming. Comfortable bed. Breakfast muffins and coffee in the lobby. Coffee also in the room. Right outside the park. We didn't go to the restaurant. We were there late September. Things closing down nearby."

"Excellent suite and well-provisioned. The downside is that nearby a/c or refrigeration units are loud; it was not the idyllic and peaceful lakeside retreat we had hoped for."

Village Inn At Apgar - Inside the Park

Village Inn At Apgar - Inside the Park

10/10 Excellent
"Apgar has a casual, almost campground feel to it that I really loved. The lake and the views were breathtaking. We had plenty of room to sleep all 5 of us—our only issue was 1 bathroom and little space to get ready for the day. There were a couple of days that were rather warm reaching 90 degree temps but mornings and evenings were cool enough that the room was okay for sleeping without AC. We had 1 hiccup where we returned to our room after a day of hiking and none of our key cards worked. We were traveling with 2 other families and the same was true for them. But the staff were on it and immediately fixed the issue. If able, bring a camp/beach chair or picnic blanket for the beach area and definitely water shoes or sandals. The beach/lake bed is stone/rock."

Lake McDonald Lodge - Inside the Park

10/10 Excellent
"We love to visit NP lodges and Lake McDonald lodge did not disappoint. The staff from check-in to check-out were friendly, very helpful and always listening for ways to make our stay more comfortable and enjoyable. We ate onsite at the Fireside Dining Room and Lucke's Lounge--food cooked to our request, service consistent, and prices reasonable considering location. The lobby is inviting with the beautiful lantern lights, the fireplace with etched stone and a variety of comfortable seating. And most important, the views inside the lodge and outside are outstanding. Our accommodation was a small cabin and we enjoyed looking out our door and seeing a path to the lake. We took the Western Alpine Red Bus tour which is a great way to see the western side of Going To The Sun Road without driving. Jammer Bill provided humor and fun as he shared the history of the road."
