Absolutely adorable cabin on beautiful property. The home had everything needed and more for my stay. Communication was excellent. Location was very convenient. I only wish I could have stayed longer and spent more time at the house! If I ever return to the area, I will search out a property from this owner first!

What a perfect cabin for a trip to Glacier NP! We couldn't have been happier with our stay at the Spotted Bear. We commented multiple times during our stay how the host had thought of everything to make the stay comfortable. Little things that go a long way! We enjoyed the firepit one night but mostly just enjoyed the comfortable beds after long days at the park. Thank you for a wonderful stay...we would highly recommend!
