We had a blast here! We definitely enjoyed the lake!! The boys made friends with the family next door and they fished, kayaked and boated everyday there!
Great location to stay and visit Glacier National Park. Location on Lake 5 is a real bonus, nice sunsets on the lake after hiking all day. AC is a nice bonus for the surprisingly warm MT summer!
We loved the view of Lake 5. Boys caught a few small fish but had a great time on the dock. Cabin is just as described and perfect for my family of 5. Location to the park couldn't be any better.
This cabin is on a beautiful lake and is so close to west glacier entrance. I would highly recommend this place to stay. Itâs cozy, clean and just simply cute! Thank you.
The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The property was in a very beautiful location; we really enjoyed sitting on the deck and going down to the water. Our only troubles were that sharing 1 bathroom wasn't the best for all our adults, as well as not having much room for our baggage in our bedrooms. But that's it! You'll love it here if you are looking for a nice simple beautiful spot right near the park entrance.
This property is in an excellent location. Older property, partially updated. Sleeps many people, but only one bathroom and no dishwasher or kitchen towels. Beautiful lake out back and comfortable to come back to after visiting the area. Beds were all comfortable too.
Our family of 5 had everything we needed at this little place including a beautiful view! It has to be one of the closest places you can rent and be outside of the park. Just a few minute drive to the west entrance but also close to several restaurants nearby. We cooked breakfasts there each morning and had plenty of pots and pans to do so. When I had a question about check out (which was the easiest of any place Iâve ever stayed), the reply was very quick. Weâd definitely stay here again!
Nice property located only a few miles to west entrance of park. View from cabin as pictured in add, very nice.
Cabin fairly clean. Roomy. Overall very nice.
Only negative for me was no closets or drawers to unpack into.
The Loft is a fantastic little place that accommodates a lot of people comfortably. The lake is spectacular and it is close enough to town and closer yet to Glacier NP. Even though a lot of things were still closed due to how early in the season we went we still had a great time! If going to Glacier do your homework!
This cabin far exceeds the photos and the description! The cabin is 10 minutes to the West Glacier park entrance. However it was a great, great get-away location in its own right. The views of Lake 5 and the changing color trees, as well as watching the snow storm was a real treat. Ryan was a great communicator and accommodating host. We are trying to figure out when we can come back!
We had a lovely, very peaceful, stay at this cabin on Lake Five. We hadn't ever been to Lake Five and this was the perfect spot for a getaway. Smoky sunsets, bald eagles, osprey, loons, a friendly duck, and lots of quiet time. We wanted an easy access to the park spot and we found it here. Although, being at this cabin made us not want to go into the park. I think we all would've been happy to just lay low for our entire visit.
There were four of us - myself and my husband and our two teenage sons. And, there would've been plenty of space for more guests.
The porch with picnic table was the perfect spot for coffee and every meal. And, the driveway had a big flat space for yard games. And, we spent a lot of time on the beach and dock. That access is definitely a bonus!
I recommend this spot for anyone looking for a peaceful MT getaway.
Excellent place to stay to visit Glacier and also get to enjoy Lake Five! Be sure to ask the owner about renting stand up paddle boards, they got delivered straight to the cabin and we loved using them daily off the private dock and beach. Having those made the stay exceptional!
This cabin is definitely rustic, but the location couldnât be better for exploring Glacier National Park. The lake is beautiful, and my kids loved spending time on the small beach and dock. It was the perfect spot to relax with a cold beer after a long day of hiking. The loft was a hit with the kids, and the owners were fantasticâwhen the coffee pot broke, they had a brand new Keurig delivered the very next day. Weâd absolutely stay here again!
I feel like the description and pictures undersell this place a bit. We were a bit hesitant booking, but the reviews sold it and it was an excellent place. It's so close to the west entrance to the park - you couldn't ask for much better. And Lake Five is fantastic. We swam everyday after coming home from hiking. We had our family of 5 plus a friend staying and the 1 bathroom wasn't really an issue ever. The cabin is well stocked with towels, dishsoap, paper towels, and bear spray, which was nice that we didn't have to buy any. Overall, just a really great place.
The cabin is in a great spot outside of Glacier NP. It has a great view of a lake with some mountains in the back. Just the two of us on this trip but would be good for a small family.
The location is fantastic. On a lovely lake with a private dock and great views. The photos do not do it justice.
Very close to the West entrance to Glacier National Park.
The cabin is rustic but comfortable.
This cabin is located right next to Glacier National Park and Going to the Sun Road. Weâd stay there again for that alone. The cabin sits back a short way from the lake, but has private access. The view on the dock was awesome and very relaxing.
The owner was very communicative and gave us some warnings and news we really needed to have for our trip.
To be honest, we didnât spend a ton of time at the property because we were in the park so much. Still, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with spices and all the cooking necessities.
Overall, weâd definitely stay here again and would definitely recommend to friends.
My family of five and I stayed at this cute, cozy cabin on Lake Five for three nights at the end of August. We used the cabin as a base camp for our adventures in Glacier (it is just minutes away from the West Glacier entrance). We went Hiking, boating, sightseeing and whitewater rafting which didnât leave us enough time to truly appreciate the home and lake the way we wouldâve liked to have. You need at least a couple weeks! We found the cabin to be exactly as advertised. Rustic, not fancy, clean, renovated and had pretty much everything we needed. Prices in the area are high and this location is prime, which justified the cost
Loved having a nice washer and dryer on vacation with three kids.
Upstairs loft was just fine for the 12-year-old and 8-year-old, but it would be a little tight for adults. They loved it.
View from the deck was gorgeous. We enjoyed eating meals out on the picnic table on the deck. Deck itself could use a little attention - just wear flip-flops.
Waterfront view from the dock was beautiful. Basic chairs provided. Bring your own floats etc.
Heating system worked great for chilly mornings.
We didnât cook, but there were plenty of cups and plates for our use.
Owner was very responsive and gave great suggestions on things to do/places to eat.
I live in Helena, and grew up on Lake 5 in the summers. Our family has purchased properties over the years and started to rent them out to share with others!
