About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

South Fork of Spotted Bear Retreat

Take the road less traveled. A short distance on a winding, dirt road through the woods will take you to this quiet, secluded destination. This little get-away is nestled in the heart of the woods, yet is only 9.2 miles from West Glacier, Montana - the entrance to Glacier National Park.

The Flathead River here in northwest Montana is designated as a “Wild and Scenic River” and includes the North Fork, Middle Fork and South Fork - the names of the three vacation units available in this triplex cabin. With three private units, this is a great option for group travelers wanting to be together and yet still have their own space, or can be utilized singularly and privately. There are two 6” thick walls and two dead-bolting doors separating each unit.

With the quiet woods all around, this is a great place to unwind and settle in.
During your stay at this cabin, you're just a quick walk from Flathead River. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the cabin.
  • Air-conditioned cabin with kitchen, washing machine, and patio
  • Free WiFi
  • Just a 3-minute walk from Flathead River and 11 minutes by car from Flathead Lake Winery
This cabin offers its guests barbecue grills. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Columbia Falls cabin is smoke free.

Great secluded lodgings but easy access to Glacier!
We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The owner is super responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. The cabin is just perfect for a stay at Glacier, great hiking during the day, and a beautiful deck to sit on at night and view the stars. The cabin had everything we needed to make meals at home after long days of hiking. Don’t miss this gem!

Great little spot for 2
We enjoyed 4 nights here while visiting Glacier National Park. Clean and comfortable. The only thing we were missing was a toaster, but we survived. Would stay there again. Make sure to set GPS before you get too close. No cell service in area.

Great stay
We had a great stay and this property was very nice! It was very close to the west entrance to the park. The only thing we wished it had but didn’t was a toaster for the kitchen and an outlet for the loft area.

Quiet Mountain Escape
Incredible property, tucked back in the countryside, a mere 20ish minutes from the west entrance to Glacier NP. Close river access less than 5 minutes away. Price was perfect. Host was incredibly responsive and accommodating. Would recommend to anyone I met that planned a trip to northwestern Montana.

Great cabin near Glacier NP
Our cabin was perfect for me and my son. It was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. It was a short drive to the West entrance of Glacier. Thanks for making our trip memorable!

Lovely Place
My family and I really enjoyed our time here. The beds were comfortable and they provided extra bedding. It’s a little ways from the main road, which made it very nice and quiet. Close to the West Glacier Entrance and other activities outside of the park. Even bear spray was provided! We would stay here again.

Lovely Stay
We truly enjoyed our stay at this property. I must say, first driving to it I was a little nervous, the property is down dirt roads back in the forest. However, once we arrived we were very happy. Owner lives near property, our kids had a blast playing every evening with his kids. We would definitely stay here again!

Montana cabin
Likes: Cute, efficient cabin with a very comfortable king bed. Close to Glacier and town for good eats. Easy to get in and out. Dislikes: Location felt a little sketchy. Junk, broken down car as you drive into property wasn’t reassuring. Bathroom was not clean. Toothpaste on mirrors and dirty shower was very unpleasant.

Quality Time
Rustic is not an overstatement, but that was just what we were looking for. After all...it is Montana. Access to Glacier Park is terrific and the Flathead river is only a 6 minute drive from your door step. We thoroughly enjoyed star gazing on the banks and were fortunate enough to catch a spectacular performance of the Aurora Borealis. The property manager was a super guy and very attentive. I'll stay again if the party is small enough or just rent multiple units. Very much enjoyed the stay and it was the perfect location.

Beautiful location with great amenities
The Vrbo is on a beautiful wooded property, with updated interiors. Extremely clean and the owner clearly cares about the details. Thank you for the local treats, a comfy bed, and a lovely porch. We stayed at another Vrbo with family earlier in the week, the owner of that one was extremely demanding with a 20-point list of expectations and chores for us. Spotted Bear Retreat is the opposite of this. They make it easy and stress free for you! We were beyond appreciate of this. Also, great view of stars you can even see the Milky Way! We plan on coming back, thank you. :)

Beautiful place close to Glacier NP
Easy to find, check in a breeze, very close to GNP. Best of all was a wonderfully comfortable bed! John was very helpful and friendly. The place is brand new and just perfect for us to hike the park. We will come back for sure!
