Close to Hungry Horse recreation center & Nat’l Park. Very clean. However, beds were horribly uncomfortable & noisy, and pillows were like rocks. Won’t stay there again.

Nice place, about 30 miles to either East or West Glacier. The rooms are comfy, clean and remodeled but they don’t have a mini fridge or microwave. I’d go there again and would recommend.

The beauty of the property. The staff was usually friendly. There was no cleaning room service, so we ran out of coffee and towels and toilet paper.

Air conditioner was very loud. Friend said futon bed was uncomfortable; support slats poked through the three inch mattress. Shower looked like it had not been cleaned well in quite some time. WiFi was terrible and didn’t work most of the time. Good food at Izaak Walton Inn but limited (none) vegetarian options. Huckleberry pie was great. Safe area. Easy parking.

Reasonable price to stay fairly close to Glacier National Park. Great view of the night sky in the middle of the wilderness. Newer motel.

Property is located a short drive from the west entrance to GNP. Wifi is basically useless but rooms are very clean, yet on the small side. Not many options close for food. Bring food and drinks with you. Staff is located a mile away. Not a bad place, just be aware of limitations once you are there. I would, however, stay again if necessary.
