We very much enjoyed our time there. The small cabin was clean and worked well for 4 teenage boys up in the loft and 1 adult on the futon.

The owners were very friendly and helpful. The property was nice. It’s pretty secluded and you do go down quite a bit of gravel roads to get there. Over all it seemed a little pricey for what it was but it was our first b&b so really don’t know.

This was the best place we stayed on our trip out west! The owners were super knowledgeable about the area and Glacier National Park. They served amazing hot breakfast both mornings and even allowed us to walk and explore their property near the river.

This is a lovely family-run property, located in a quiet area about 10 miles from Columbia Falls. They provided us with maps and bear spray and all sorts of information about the area, and wonderful, home-cooked breakfasts each day. I would really describe this as a bit more of a 'bed and breakfast' than a hotel.

Nancy and Scott who run the place are very welcoming and so helpful with anything needed. A great resource. They provide a great breakfast each morning. It is located in the beautiful mountains about 15 minutes to the West Entrance. It was clean, and had an outdoorsy cabin feel.

Nancy and her husband were very hospitable and provided a delicious breakfast each morning! Every day we came home to a clean room, small chocolates in our room and they were there for anything we needed (advice, maps, bear spray, etc!). We would absolutely go back and we are thankful for their hospitality!

Conservative talk radio as you walk the grounds
Quite surprised with the reviews saying the owners friendly. We did not find them that way. Wouldn’t recommend this place if you’re offended by conservative talk radio being broadcast from a garden shed as you walk the grounds. If that doesn’t put you off just aware of what you are booking. The photos and price led us to believe we were booking a cabin with kitchen, as did the photos (of a cabin!) that accompanied the reservation email. It turned out to be a bedroom in the owner’s house. The owner at first blamed hotels.com for the mixup but later changed his story, saying he had emailed us the change - an email we never received.

Great Stay at Smoky Bear, will come back again.
Fantastic stay at the Smoky Bear Ranch. Cozy setup, great living room with a real fireplace that warms up the whole room. Bed and bathroom are clean and the owners do a bed turn and clean up the bathroom during the day. Excellent service and took care of us. The highlight is the breakfast each morning with juice and coffee, freshly baked/cooked eggs, pastry and fruits. Better than home cooking. Another is they have bear-spray you can borrow. Chance of a bear encounter is low, but this is a need-to-have if you are going on trails. The only snag is the GPS that took us to wrong house/cabin. But the owner was 100% nice and told us that it's the next cabin down the road. Not sure if this will happen to you. Just fyi, Smoky Bear is on the left hand side. If your GPS takes to a cabin on the right, it's the wrong house/cabin.
