The grandeur of Glacier National Park begins four miles north of this comfortable West Glacier vacation condo. A recently completed three-bedroom chalet with beautiful mountain views and all the modern home essentials, it invites your group of up to six for a spirited national park getaway.
Completed in 2016, this custom designed home gives you unbeatable access to Glacier National Park, a crown jewel of America's national park system. Access to this park's over one million acres of sprawling wildlands begins at the Apgar Visitor Center, which is just a short trip up the iconic Going-to-the-Sun Road. You'll also find nearby fishing on the Flathead River, a variety of water sports at Lake Five, and countless hiking trails in the Flathead National Forest. While you’re staying at the chalet, you can take a quick walk to the West Glacier Nordic ski track, with more than 5k of groomed ski trail for skate and classic skiers to enjoy while surrounded by views of Glacier National Park.
Recharge from all of your active pursuits in this home's inviting interior. The carpeted floors and luxurious couches of the living area create a cozy ambiance that's perfect for rest and relaxation in between visits to the national park. We recently upgraded the internet and now have 10 MB of high speed!
Flip on this room's wall-mounted flatscreen to settle in with a favorite cable show, or head just beyond the room's sliding glass doors to take in the stunning views of Strawberry Mountain from the outdoor patio.
Feast your eyes on the alpenglow of a western sunset painted across the mountains at dusk, or head upstairs for more sweeping views from the wraparound deck. The deck is also a favorite for all fresco dining, particularly for enjoying barbecues using the gas grill.
But, if you want to cook indoors, the chef in your group will certainly appreciate the kitchen's stainless steel appliances, assorted cookware, and spacious granite countertops for quick and easy meal prep. Eat with your group at the six-seat table in the adjacent dining nook, with easy cleanup afterward, thanks to the dishwasher. And you won't even have to miss the end of that football game thanks to the nearby wall-mounted flatscreen.
Later, explore any of the home's surrounding 10 acres of private property, or walk across the street to book a whitewater rafting trip, a guided hike, or a horseback ride with Glacier Wilderness Guides. You could also catch up on some laundry with the washer/dryer, or connect to the WiFi for further adventure planning.
When your satisfying day comes to an end, retreat to any of three bedrooms for high-quality sleep. Up to six guests are accommodated on cushy beds in two rooms and a full bed in the third bedroom. Each bedroom is modestly furnished, allowing you to focus on getting a great night's sleep, night after night. The main level is ADA compliant with two non-ADA bedrooms downstairs. The chalet is fully equipped with new furnishings, appliances, washer and dryer, satellite TV and wireless internet. Note that there is not a bathroom downstairs, but there is a utility sink in the laundry room with a mirror. Also, the bedrooms have very comfortable beds but are quaint, with no mountain views. You will have to go to kitchen, living room, or deck for the mountain view experience.
Start your new day with an invigorating soak in the full bathroom's stone walk-in shower, then wake up with a fresh-brewed cup of coffee from the kitchen's coffeemaker. Plan for another day of exciting outdoor activities, which might include a helicopter tour of the park or a guided fishing trip on the Flathead.
There is also golfing two-and-a-half miles north at Glacier View Golf Course, a natural history museum at the Crown of the Continent Discovery Center (under a half-mile north), and quaint country restaurants and western boutiques in Coram (about five miles south). For skiing and snowboarding, head 23 miles southwest to Whitefish Mountain Ski Resort.
