15 Minutes to Many Glacier
Stayed at the Elk Willows home. Perfect for me and my husband. Well stocked kitchen, full sized washer / dryer, super comfortable king size bed, good quality bath towels, loved the soaker tub - after full hiking days it was a blessing. The caretakers, Cheyenne and Andrew were awesome! Very friendly and outgoing. Our rental car had a low tire and they met us at the shop on the ranch and allowed my husband to use the air compressor to air the tire up! We would stay here again in a minute! We brought all of our groceries on the west side and cooked every single night. Highly recommend staying here, the big sky views are beautiful.

Close to Many Glacier
I stayed with four of my friends for a girls' hiking trip in this immaculate, comfortable and very spacious home. We were surprised at how much room there was for everyone. The house had everything we needed and then some! The managers, Cheyenne and Andrew, were so friendly and accommodating. It was fun to see the horse and alpacas, too. The location is rural, quiet and has dark skies to see the amazing stars at night. It is located about 20 minutes to the Many Glacier entrance, which was our favorite part of Glacier National Park. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thanks, Cheyenne and Andrew!

Fabulous Location on East Side
This is a gorgeous property with 3 good sized bedrooms with plenty of storage space. Kids enjoyed helping herd the alpacas in at night. Fabulous location with easy access to Many Glaciers, GTSR, and not too far from Two Medicine. Views are beautiful from property. Hosts were very helpful. Only negative is limited restaurants and absurdly expensive groceries on the east side. That said, well worth it.

Amazing views and location!
This property exceeded our expectations! Upon arriving, we were greeted by the property managers, who were very welcoming and friendly. As soon as we walked into this spotless home, we immediately felt comfortable. There was more than enough room for our family of four, with all of the amenities that we needed. The location is only a 30 minute drive to Many Glacier Hotel and a 15 minute drive to the Glacier East entrance in St. Mary. And the views from the home are spectacular!! I highly recommend staying here, and we will definitely stay again during our next trip to Montana!

Great views, comfortable place, Memorable stay
This home is located on a hillside of a large ranch. The views are outstanding. The hosts are EXCELLENT. The house itself is very comfortable and roomy. all the rooms are good sized and the living room, kitchen are relatively large. The deck is great to sit out on and just enjoy the location. No A/C so it can get hot during the day, but cools off well at night. It's somewhat remote - so, if you like being away from the crowds it's great. The downside is groceries, restaurants and such are a bit of a drive. Overall, we loved the place and would certainly recommend it.

Short Stay in Babb
We only stayed two nights at this lovely property but wished we had time to stay much longer. It was only 15 minutes from the St Mary's entrance on the east side of Glacier Park. The property was immaculate with comfortable beds, and the host left clear instructions for the house and responded promptly to texts when we had questions. We especially enjoyed getting to have coffee in the morning on the deck while looking over the gorgeous ranch property. We even got to see one of the resident bears on the last morning, while he walked through to the woods!

Great location
It’s hard to find a larger home to rent on the east side of Glacier. This location was perfect for visiting the park, and it was in a beautiful setting. There is no air conditioning which was fine, but some of the windows are not working easily so were very difficult to open and keep open. The ice maker in the freezer doesn’t work, so it would have been nice to have some ice cube trays available. Some kitchen spray cleaner would have been helpful for keeping the counters and stovetop clean as well. These were all minor details that would be easily taken care of for future guests. Overall this was a great place that I would definitely recommend.

Great Stay!
The house was clean and private. It had beautiful views of the rolling hills all around. It was convenient to Canada/Waterton, Many Glacier and the Going to the Sun Road from the east entrance. However, there is not much directly in the area itself - maybe one restaurant and grocery store that aren't always open. The host was very responsive and available. I appreciate that she left the heater on when we arrived and offered to mail an item I had left behind. Overall, great stay!

The Elk Willows is a nicely furnished, clean and dramatically-located lodging with incredible views in three directions, including S over Glacier National Park. The Paul Ranch is fairly isolated from basic necessities such as groceries (especially organic) and gas for your car. $5.25 per gallon at the one gas station within 40 miles. Nevertheless, the setting of Elk Willows and the proximity to the 3 E side entrances to Glacier National Park makes staying here a no brainer, at least for us. Not everyone’s cup of tea, though.

Super convenient location to Glacier
Location, location, location. This property is so conveniently located to Many Glacier and St Mary village. It's also a pretty quick drive over to Two Medicine. When the East side does not offer as many lodging options, the Paul Ranch is a great alternative. This particular location is large enough to accommodate a decent size family. The unit itself is surprisingly huge. My only critiques lie with the bugs that flew in the house, particularly large horse flies and moths, the difficulty in finding the driveway up to the actual location without much help at night when checking in, and the lack of free roaming alpacas during our stay. We were able to see them on the last day driving out. Other than that, the property was actually pretty good with an offering of beautiful sunrises. The beds were comfortable, the aesthetic was very genuinely Native American, and the unit itself offered so many little perks such as toiletries, laundry pods, spices, and every small appliance you could ask for. I paid for the jetpack to get extra Wi-Fi service while out there however, I never even needed to connect to the Wi-Fi let alone the jetpacks. I got great service through Verizon while I was there. I did find it to be a little overpriced for the overall quality but, I guess you're paying for the location. I would definitely consider staying here again.

Great Home on the range!!
A group of 6 of us women stayed at this wonderful house for 3 nights. We were greeted coming and going each day by a small herd of cattle and the Llama and alpacas. Larry was quick to respond to all of our questions and even when we had a minor issue. The home was very clean, as pictured and had plenty of room for us to spread out into. It is a drive back onto a large farm which is easy to find by daylight--make sure you know your landmarks or GPS to find it at night! :) It was nice to have laundry access after hiking 6 days in National Glacier Park. It is perfectly located to access Many Glacier and the East Entrance as well as a mere 15 minutes to Waterton Canada.
