Cabin was great-extremely clean and well stocked - location was good for hitting hikes on both sides of the Park. It is close to road and train tracks but that’s common in this area. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this cabin to anyone visiting Glacier NP.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gary and Theresa's cabin in Essex. The cabin is the most well stocked and the cleanest vacation rental I've ever stayed at. The hosts were so kind and left us a bottle wine and pasta on our first night. Location is phenomenal; perfect for exploring both sides of the park. We would happily return!

The cabin was beautiful, well equipped and comfortable. The owner was super friendly and easy to communicate with. I would definitely stay here again.

From the Owner: "Thank you!! We enjoyed having you all!"
Hosts were fabulous, it was like having a kind neighbor you enjoy conversations with. My daughter fell in love with their dog. Super clean cabin, kitchen well stocked with whatever tools / etc you need, new grill was enjoyed so we didn't heat up the cabin. The train is right across the street, but not enough of an issue to deter a positive review (it did wake us a few times). Kids liked counting how many trains they saw in a week. Good location between park entrances. No A/C in the house, but it only got a little stuffy late afternoon and we were out of the house most days (with highs around 90 this week). Thanks Gary and Theresa for a fabulous stay!

From the Owner: "So wonderful! Thank you! I’m so happy you enjoyed your stay!!"
We loved this location and stay. It was perfect for being unplugged. The kitchen is great for one chef, which is wonderful with not a lot of restaurants around. Train across the street was pleasant to hear and did not have any loud annoying squeaks. The ice maker at the end of the driveway makes the place easy to spot. Many wonderful outdoor areas and dim cozy interior. We had 2 adults and 3 kids. The 2 bathrooms were fantastic. Upper bunk is tight, but other 2 beds and sofa in the loft helped it all work. Hosts were so kind.
From the owner: "I’m happy your family had a great time! Thank you so much!"
