The cabin is approximately 36 miles from Columbia Falls much of which is unpaved. The cabin is accessed by a 0.5 mile gravel road and is remote. It is wonderful to retreat to the quiet of the cabin after a busy day in the Park or Forest. Plenty of Parking for boat /raft trailers. The road from Columbia Falls will be snow covered in winter and possibly dusty and bumpy in summer but go slow as the views are tremendous as you follow the North Fork River flanking the mountains of the Park. We have a number of trails on the property and highly recommend hiking to the look out with your evening cocktails. There is a screened in Gazebo with large dining table for family/friend gatherings. Inflatable SUP and kayaks, spinning rods available for use at own risk please ask. Dart board in the old log cabin and other lawn games. The observatory is locked and off limits to guests however Jim loves to show you how it works and the stars. Just ask . It contains 2 telescopes and a solar scope and is perfect for the Montana dark skies.The cabin is remote with no neighbours, the skies are dark with no artificial lights to be seen. The cabin is solar powered with a back up generator. Internet and wifi calling is good so this makes for a great working retreat. Need a river shuttle ? please ask
We can help you with ways to access the Park, and visiting the surrounding 2 million acre Flathead Forest. Guests are welcome to explore the property, we have trails over 200 acres our favorite is a short hike to the "lookout" for evening drinks and sunsets!
The cabin is stocked with essentials, Columbia Falls is the last stop for food, gas and cell service so stock up before you drive up. We share the beautiful landscape with many animals including deer, moose, elk wolves, mountain lion and black and grizzly bears. We are therefore very careful about food storage, use of barbeques etc and hike with bear spray in summer (provided)
There is plenty of things to do outside of the Park, e.g hiking the lightly used trials (dogs allowed) in the Flathead National Forest, exploring the Lookout Towers, fishing lakes and rivers and floating the Flathead River, or take a day trip to Whitefish.
Glacier National Park announced Wednesday that it is ending its ticketed-entry system, which has dictated summer access to some of the park’s most popular areas for the past five years. Instead, it will introduce new parking limits at Logan Pass and a reservation system for shuttle buses along the Going-to-the-Sun Road.
Late last year, Superintendent Dave Roemer said the park was likely to discontinue the ticketed-entry system for the west side of Going-to-the-Sun Road, which has long been one of Glacier’s most congested areas. However, since then, National Park Service officials have remained silent about their exact plans, saying they were still assessing options. In previous years, Glacier typically announced its plans for the following year in November or December.
In a press release Wednesday, Roemer said he hoped the new system would enable more people to visit Logan Pass, the Continental Divide and the summit of the Sun Road by implementing a three-hour parking limit there. Park officials stated that this would give visitors enough time to see the Visitor’s Center, participate in an interpretive program, or even take the short hike to the Hidden Lake Overlook.
Those planning longer hikes from Logan Pass, such as the iconic Highline Trail to the Granite Park Chalet, would need to use one of the express shuttles from either the east or west side of the park.
“With the new trial measures, we aim to improve the public’s ability to visit Logan Pass for short durations and allow the shuttle system to perform more reliably for a more specific purpose,” Roemer said in the release. “This initiative reflects our continued learning and listening as we refine park transportation and access to better serve the public and safeguard the integrity of the park’s resources.”
Parking limits at Logan Pass were expected to begin on July 1, typically around the time the entire Going-to-the-Sun Road opens. Meanwhile, the new express shuttle system will provide direct service from the Apgar Visitor Center and Lake McDonald Lodge on the west side to Logan Pass. Unlike previous years, it will not stop at the Avalanche Lake or Trail of the Cedars trailheads. The shuttle will make afternoon stops at the Loop, a popular endpoint for hikers from Logan Pass. On the east side, the shuttles will depart from the St. Mary Visitor Center and Rising Sun.
Shuttle reservations will cost $1 per person and are required for anyone 2 years and older. Tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis through Recreation website. A portion of tickets will be made available 60 days in advance, beginning at 8 a.m. on May 2. The remaining tickets will be released at 7 p.m. for next-day entry starting June 30.
There are no services north of Columbia Falls, get your supplies, fuel and ice before you head up.
We have have maps and guide books and information on our favourite hikes. We can help you plan you day, figure out the Park entry system or if you wish or run river shuttles (extra cost)
The Polebridge mercantile now rents inflatable kayaks, rafts, paddle boards and ebikes which can be booked online under outfitters on their website
In winter it may not be easily accessible due to road conditions on the North Fork. We do snow blow the driveway and parking area. Roads in the Park are mostly closed to vehicles in winter allowing excellent hiking, xc skiing and snowshoeing opportunities. Polebridge is closed in winter so bring everything you need from Columbia Falls.
