Love this place! One of the nicest stays I've ever had. Great being here with a large group. This lodge easily accommodates us all. Super nice staff. Excellent food and accommodations. This place is special!

Sara and Ryan and the team are amazing and friendly. They are very accommodating to vegans and vegetarians. they have a hot tub in the back so pack a swimsuit. It is near the ski lodge so nice to go for hikes. The food here for breakfast and happy hour you guys it's delicious! Cookies change daily! The coffee and cookies are heavenly. They have fresh lavender plants up front. If you are debating between a marriot property and here, please stay here for the experience and the price is comparable. Rooms are clean and sufficient space. There is a game room and library so after dinner you can play games or watch tv (quietly). My husband and I enjoyed playing nightly rounds of uno. I recommend anyone wanting to go visit glacier park stay here for the experience! Thanks again!

This review is long overdue! My husband and I stayed here earlier this year and the visit was fabulous. The lodge was exactly what we were looking for: cute, clean, comfortable, and quiet. The hosts are very down to earth, friendly, and just a lot of fun to chat with. Their food is amazing. I'm usually one that likes to explore a new area for breakfast but I find it hard to believe that you'd be able to top any meal they provide. Everything is made from scratch. The evening before you select from a few primary options but there is more than you can eat in two meals with the indulgent sides. Every single thing we tried was on point. They also had an appetizer and refreshment later in the day as the perfect way to wrap up skiing or kick-off your evening. Thanks for a great time! We've already recommended you to others and plan to be back in the future. Note: The lodge is in town with easy access to the ski hill. It's a good location for what we needed but not a remote experience if that's what you're hoping for.

Our stay here was fantastic. I wish we had been able to stay more nights. If we are back in the area we will definitely stay here again. The staff was extremely friendly and the food was incredible. The cookies, the breakfast made to order, the apps and drinks were all awesome. The coffee!!! -So good. Using the hot tub in the evening was nice. The bed was so comfortable it was the best sleep I had gotten on our entire trip. It was also great to be able to do our laundry for free while we were there. They also have a great selection of local gifts at much better prices than the local gift stores downtown.

Short form: Outstanding! Long form: We arrived early in the morning, way before check in time. We were warmly greeted by Ryan the owner. He was warm and lovely. He made sure we get coffee and a cake so we can go up skiing as soon as possible. Throughout our stay that was the main motive - Ryan and Sara doing their best to make sure you have the best vacation ever! It's the small things that matter - the coffee corner, the small hand made appetizers in the afternoon. The ice cold drinking water in your room. Add to that a lodge that is beautifully designed, the wood fire place, amazing breakfast, snow bus that picks you from the lodge entrance, great conversations with other guests. It was a perfect vacation. We're already checking dates for our next visit. Thank you Ryan & Sara!

The Good Medicine Lodge is a great place to stay! They are right in Whitefish, Montana and just a few minutes from the west side of Glacier National Park! We absolutely loved it! From our cozy room that looked out to the mountains in the mornings and the comfy bed, to all the great amenities they offer. No detail was forgotten. They remembered everything! Ryan and Sarah served the best breakfasts every morning! And their staff were so friendly and helpful! Ryan's homemade sourdough bread and fresh roasted coffees were amazing! They made us feel like family! We will definitely be back!

This bed and breakfast was the most fantastic lodging experience I have ever had! The attention to detail is superb and the both, Sarah and Ryan, the hosts, are phenomenal! They are so accommodating, have the greatest breakfasts, and the BEST cookies and sourdough bread around! It was fun to come in every afternoon to check out the new cookie flavor of the day and it never disappointed. Also, every afternoon, they offered snacks and drinks that we usually ate in the beautiful backyard garden. I absolutely loved my stay here, and cannot wait to come back!

Hands down the best stay in a B&B/Lodge I've had. It was beautiful (setting/building), clean, and the service (when needed, breakfast) was excellent. You will meet the owners Ryan and Sara. Their friendliness and attentiveness is reflected in the staff. We wanted for nothing. They service breakfast - a rotating set of choices - We had something different each day and it was very good.

See all

The Firebrand Hotel - Beautiful view from the elegant rooftop!

The Firebrand Hotel

(100 reviews)

Great hotel in downtown Whitefish!…read more I was in town for business and stayed 1 night at the Firebrand and had a great time! I confirmed my airport shuttle the day before with Shannon over the phone. She was kind and very informative regarding the area and how to make the most of my time there. I didn't rent a car so I loved that the Free SNOW bus was running and hopped on it to do some sightseeing at the top of the mountain. After I was finished exploring, I checked out the beautiful rooftop and hot tub.... Really nice views! And luckily there were lots of dinner options nearby also! The bed was comfy, the shower was great, and the room was quiet. The Nespresso machine pumped out a good cup of coffee in the morning, which I appreciated. Overall, really enjoyed my stay here and would love the opportunity to stay again. If you're looking for good accommodations in the downtown Whitefish area, I'd highly recommend giving the Firebrand a try! Happy Travels!

Firebrand - downtown Whitefish…read more I stayed here 6 days at the end of August. I'll start with "the good." The hotel is in a perfect location if you enjoy walking to restaurants and shops. Firebrand had an excellent breakfast. There was usually a wait for the food to arrive after ordering but it was worth it. Happy hour was also very nice. Great prices - tasty apps. The servers at both breakfast and dinner were delightful. The upstairs, outdoor area was beautiful and tranquil. The hotel was decorated in a lodge theme, which was, obviously, on point, very interesting and beautiful. Unfortunately the sofa in front of the fireplace had two long slits in the cushions. Management should definitely take time to have that repaired. It's uncomfortable and unsightly. I guess we're sliding toward "the bad." Our first night we got little sleep. Normally I don't comment on loud guests, etc. That usually has little to do with the hotel. Apparently a room across the hall had music playing loudly, which we could not hear. Another room complained to the front desk. The front desk sent an employee to request the music be turned down. There was apparently no response from the guests in the room. The employee continued to bang and beat on the door for a very long time- then said employee went outside to banged on the windows. That did not wake the guests. So the employee came back in and banged on the door more. This went on for a what seemed like an eternity. Next, our room was not clean. I can honestly say it was dirty. Everyday there would be young men (I think the hotel had an exchange program where university students in other countries could come and live / work in the US for the summer) in the hallways, blowing up cleaning gloves and hitting them to each other as a game. Even though we were not in our room, and did not have a do not disturb sign on the door, our room did not get cleaned. We finally figured it out. If they waited until we returned to the room to rest before dinner; we would just request towels. Then they could forgo the cleaning. (On our 6 day trip, our room was made up once.) The last zinger (which I brought to the attention of the very nice front desk person, Shannon) was the door hanger for do not disturb, which said, "Busy." It was a view from outside a keyhole spying in on a woman. This is totally inappropriate. Are you promoting the stalking of women? Do you think they should be spied on and unsafe in hotel rooms? This is total tone deaf in a culture where woman should feel safe traveling alone and whose safety should not be joked about. Whitefish was delightful. I do not think I'd stay at this Firebrand Hotel again because there would be no way to assure these negatives had been addressed.

Seeing how beautiful this place is I thought I'd be posting a five star review however we had…read moretrouble at the front desk. They told us our room was ready and then they changed their mind and said it wasn't ready and that we had to wait a half hour and we should go to the tiki bar when we tried to get couldn't because we didn't have a room key yet my needed a computer charger. They told us no problem. They'd have one sent to our room, but that never happened when we did get into the tiki bar we ordered mahi tacos and were given pork. we asked our waitress to charge our the room, she said she could not do that. The pool was wonderful. The hot tub was nice. The view of the lake was remarkable. The rooms were very comfortable. We got to see deer right outside our window. We were celebrating our 36th anniversary we checked in on Monday night. We wanted to have dinner at the boat club. They told us there was one table available. I was so excited until she came back and told me sorry we are completely full. I asked I could change the time of my reservation and she said no only two servers tonight and they could not squeeze one more table. That was a huge disappointment for us because that's why we chose the place.

Beautiful property with amazing views. We did not stay at the rooms, but we did go to the tiki bar…read moreat the back. There was complementary free car parking across the road, even if you were not staying at the hotel. It is the lot with the hotel extension.. The property is based on a lake with so many activities like kayaking etc . There is a gated pool area for people who are staying at the lodge itself. If I was to return, I definitely would possibly stay here as it is close to lots of different trails and amenities and access to the lake which is absolutely stunning and is a must do. The weather was not the best when we went so we couldn't enjoy much outdoors .. but would love to visit and stay at this property ! 100% recommend

Cigarette butts and a half eaten pills!…read more This place wasn't cleaned before we arrived and management company (Whitefish Escapes) felt like it was good enough. Outside of fact that they and the property owners (who they blamed) were unwilling to let us re-book our stay for a future date I am shocked they could pass this property to renters at all. They held us to every word of the 9 page agreement but then could not even have the place cleaned or the walkway cleared before we arrived. Cigarette butt and a half eaten pill on the night stand, egg covered pan put away as if clean, filthy towel left behind, water leaking from the vent in the downstairs bath, walkway from stairs to front door covered in snow/ice, door handle to the deck not functioning and past guest dirty clothing left behind. When I brought these up again after the trip and asked for a refund on the $350 cleaning fee they offered $100. I guess they agreed it was not clean but thought it was good enough for us. We were all grossed out by the property but more disappointed in Whitefish Escapes Management. If you are coming to Whitefish I would seriously avoid renting any property managed by them. Plenty of other options. We learned our lesson the hard way this time. Just to be clear, this review and rating have nothing to do with not being able to re-book for a future date or credit.
