Great base for Glacier NP. Room amenities were good. Lots of towels. Only down side was how noisy the a/c was in main area.

The place was far bigger, and newer than we expected and it was a lovely, relaxing place to retreat to after Glacier National Park. The kitchen was well stocked, and everything we needed was there. This place was fantastic, and a great value.

Arrived late and could not locate building on property because it was after dark. No one on staff at arrival.
Called and texted number used to confirm reservation but got no answer. Had to walk property with flashlight to locate apartment. Took me about 30 minutes determine where i was staying. Very frustrating considering it was late and everyone was tired and ready for showers from hiking. Property manager should have emailed or texted map of property prior to my arrival. Ice maker did not work either. Unit was clean and beds were comfortable.

This was a great place to stay. Near Glacier and easy access to get to Columbia Falls, Whitefish and Kalispell. The room was a tiny apartment which was great!

Stayed in an apartment during our 3 day trip to Glacier. This was perfect for our family. Everyone had a bed and we had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was amazing! I had not planned on cooking, but will on our next trip. Also loved that Starbucks was in the lobby! Will stay here again on our next trip to Glacier.

Rough start, but a nice place to stay. There is no one on property to check you in; they provide a code in a text. It is very important that they have the correct phone number for you. Once we got our code everything ran smoothly. Property looked a little rough on the outside, but it was clean and spacious inside. The 2 story “hotel” portion is now employee housing, so there are residents on that part of the property. There is a Starbucks on site which was a nice way to start our day. If looking for an apartment style place to stay with a full kitchen and separate bedrooms for multiple people this is a great option.

Beds were comfortable, kitchen well stocked. Convenient location close to GNP. Only 1 bathroom that you had to walk through the bedroom to get to. Low shower pressure. Overall great experience. No contact check in. We had a TV issue when we arrived that they came and fixed the next morning. Would stay here again.

Highly recommend!
Our family stayed in a suite (3 bed/2 bath). The day before check-in, I was sent an access code, which was great, since we were planning to arrive late. The suite looked to be newly remodeled. The entire space was extremely clean. There was a full kitchen. The space was perfect. We were located just a short drive from the entrance to Glacier National Park. I'd recommend Glacier Basecamp Lodge to family and friends, and we'll definitely be staying here again on our next trip to Glacier National Park!

It was nice to spread out and have our own space while traveling. We really appreciated the host's willingness to let us drop our bags off early even though the room wasn't ready!
