Big Glacier Getaway is back after a year of renovation and adding more space! This newly finished addition is in a fantastic location situated on 2 acres within a 5 minute drive to Whitefish and Whitefish Lake and 20 minutes to Whitefish Ski Resort. Less than 45 minutes away is the Glacier National Park west entrance and just head south for 30 minutes to enjoy Flathead Lake! The perfect place to plan the many activities available in the area. You'll be staying in a newly constructed and renovated, main level 3 bedroom 2 bath decorated with a rustic and contemporary vibe. Ample windows give to a light and airy feeling while you're indoors. The private deck and oversized hot tub offers a relaxing and peaceful recovery from playing hard in the mountains and on the lakes and rivers, and a fully fenced yard area provides a safe place for the pooch to play too. While you take in a movie or catch up on the news (who does that on vacation? haha), you'll be comfortable on the big sectional sleeper sofa (queen size sleeper) with 2 recliners set just right to see the news you're not really going to watch. The kitchen is open to the living area and has a large island with a couple of counter stools for the kids to sit and entertain whomever might be loitering behind the stove saying, "Let's just go out to eat." If you do decide to stay in for dinner and cook, the gas range faces the TV and the counter top space is expansive enough to prepare a huge buffet style dinner. In the dining area, the table seats 6 and with the counter stools and island area, dinner for 8 is served! The master bedroom offers privacy as it's split from the other bedrooms by the living and kitchen area, and there is a king size bed in the bedroom where you can comfortably recharge yourself after enjoying a day of winter sports or having some time in the sun on one of the lakes in the area. Plenty of room to stretch out to catch a show or two before the exhaustion of the day's activities pull your eyelids shut. If you're a little chilled, turn on the decorative gas stove that's set back in the corner of the bedroom. Double patio doors welcome you to access the deck to lounge or hop into the hot tub without having to run through the house. The laundry and bathroom areas also separate the master bedroom from the other bedrooms and can be closed off from the main area of the house as well. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms are spacious with full closets and queen beds outfitted with cushy beds. You and your family or guests will have a place for everything and are able to retreat for some quiet time without being cramped into tiny bedrooms. In the shared bathroom, there is a shower/tub combo to give the option for a long, hot soak instead of being on your feet even longer after Montana outdoor playtime. This is a pet-friendly home, but we request a max of 2 (dogs only) that are house trained, stay off the furniture, and well behaved. A pooper scooper is provided for cleanup, and the pets do not have to be trained to use this equipment, but the humans do! Note: If you are coming to Montana to visit Glacier National Park, please refer to their website for entry details. Reservations are now needed in addition to the standard park pass. Exterior photos will be posted closer to June 1st as landscaping and deck completion cannot be done until the snow melts. There is a previous photo of the home (addition has been added to the front) and an overhead shot of the property. Guests have access to the entire main level home and yard. Please call or text if you have any issues. Contact information is provided with your check-in details. There are only 4 houses in this small setting. Trees and acreage separate the properties. A small pond is located on the property, but, unfortunately, it doesn't hold fish. There is a mother-in-law apartment above the home that has a separate, private entrance on the opposite side of the house. The owners live onsite and are very respectful of your privacy but will give you a smile and a wave if they see you on the driveway.
