The Huckleberry ice cream was great as well. The rooms were Minimalist, but had everything you could need for your stay. We had a problem with hot water the first night, but after that, everything seemed to be fine. This location is on the site of an old railroad Depot and several of the rooms are renovated rail cars. We were in the main inn; we use the washing machines and dryers. The sauna was opened, but the hot tub was not as we went very early in the season. The hot tub is located among a Grove of trees that must be amazing in the summer. Although the staff were and there were some conflicting information about various amenities, for the most part, they really were there to make, everyone comfortable. This hotel was close to the park entrance and so it was easy getting into glacier. I would stay here again.

I guess this historic hotel is now run by the LOGE Camps chain of motels, which are geared towards…read moreoutdoor enthusiasts/adventure tourists, like my partner and me! We intentionally stayed here in October 2024 on our visit to Glacier National Park because we wanted our home base to be at a place where we could drive to both East Glacier and West Glacier and be relatively not too far from either. While this LOGE has diverse room stay options, such as train cars, an old school house, and cabins, we opted to stay in a "standard room" in the historic Izaak Walton Inn. I think the LOGE folks quite recently purchased the inn and were still ironing out some kinks. For example, their gift shop was not yet open and the restaurant were consistently out of some beverage and food options. A few notes: -The staff were warm and courteous. They really helped create a homey, family vibe. -They don't clean your room everyday, and no phone in your room as you communicate with the staff via text, but they have these small cool touches like plug-in shoe warmers in your room to dry your wet boots, as well as other outdoorsy amenities (see pics). -They also lent out bear spray for free so that we didn't have to buy a canister, which we really appreciated. (Thankfully, we didn't have to use it, despite seeing A LOT of grizzlies on the trails.) -The hotel is located pretty close to the train tracks, and while trains were coming and going pretty frequently, they didn't ever bother us. No problems falling and staying asleep. -The restaurant and bar at the place had pretty decent food and drinks. -The place is a bit pricey, but I guess that's to be expected for the boutique hotel experience and most places in the vicinity are closed. We would recommend this place and would likely stay here again for future Glacier National Park excursions.

We liked the idea of a smaller "resort" and this location looked the best, and most reasonably…read morepriced, out of limited hotel options in the area. There are less than 10 cabins, a lodge, and steakhouse. A river runs behind the property but from our cabin you couldn't see it. The trees are abundant and gorgeous, though. Starting with the highlights, we appreciated the friendly staff, tasty food at steakhouse (that they adjusted based on our needs), the charming lodge to visit for internet (only place you're guaranteed service), and the attractive, quaint cabin with breathtaking views. Based on these features I'd rate the place four stars. However, the cabin experience is what brings down the rating for me. I completely understand that you visit a Montana for the wilderness, and we were staying in a cabin not a big hotel, but we weren't trying to get a camping experience. I say that because of the ABUNDANCE of bugs inside the cabin. Again, woods = bugs. However, upon arrival the cabin was filled with months. There were at least 15 that I counted. And I saw four spiders within about five minutes. I spotted three more spiders in the bathroom while showering. Of course lots of flies, too. There shouldn't be that many insects inside the room. They're either getting in somewhere or the door was left open while cleaning maybe? I literally slept with a sheet over my head for both nights. And we had to make sure our bags were closed tightly for fear bugs would get inside luggage. Other things to note, hard to find location especially since GPS is spotty in woods. If driving from main East Glacier, you'll pass a rest stop on your left and a pullout on the right, then immediately after its on the right. No TV in room. WIFI only works in lodge and occasionally at restaurant. Breakfast offered is yogurt and bagels.

(Chad, the owner has been trying to gaslight and blame me for HIS staff not communicating…read morereservations and details- see photos below and more explanation at the bottom.) DON'T TRUST THEIR RESERVATIONS! I called and talked to someone months before my wedding for reservations for a rehearsal dinner for 22 people. When I called the owner answered and said they weren't technically open yet for the season, but he could put my reservation in for me. For some reason I had a bad feeling about if he actually got my reservation down so about 2 weeks or so later I called back, talked to someone else, and they said "yes we have you all set for that date and time". Awesome. But I still had a weird gut feeling about it and called a 3rd time about a month before the wedding dinner and they confirmed again they had me down for 22 people. I was reassured now. Someone called me the night before my rehearsal dinner (see the photo of the call log, you can see the person leaving the voicemail said 'I saw you have a reservation for 23 people at 5:30pm', so they DID have me down prior to that phone call) and asked if we were still coming and I said yes. He informed me they couldn't no longer seat me outside only inside, which I said was okay. He confirmed my reservation was set and said "See you tomorrow". The morning of my rehearsal dinner the owner, Chad, called me and was like "I was just told we have you down for a party of 22 tonight and this is my first time hearing of it, you're not on our event schedule". I explained all the times I talked to him and he made the reservation, as well as many other people that confirmed it including the night before and he said I needed to submit a request through the website for the event and that's the only way they can schedule these events. I told him whoever I talked to initially never told me that and said he put me on the event schedule. Chad then proceeded to blame me and belittle me for not doing it "correctly" and basically told me this was my fault, not theirs, and they couldn't seat us. He then said they could seat us but I would have to rent the upper room for $800- again no one EVER told me anything about renting a space when I talked to 3 separate people. We couldn't pay $800 more and now we're out dinner for 22 people that travelled from WI. Luckily I found the Snowgoose restaurant in St Mary and that manager was very nice and accommodated our group for the same evening. Do NOT trust these workers here to tell you the correct information or put it in their event schedule correctly!!! Since the owner still wants to take NO accountability for his actions and again try to blame me and say I never let him know I no longer wanted the reservations (see photo of his reply on my Google review still just blaming me!) I included in this review the photo of me letting Maribeth know I don't need the reservations and she even replied "thank you for letting me know". So again, a lie from the owner to gaslight me (or his staff don't communicate important things, still not my fault) because I DID let them know I didn't need the reservation and we weren't coming. I also updated a photo of my call logs with the restaurant. My initial call where I scheduled the reservation was from my work phone, which I will get that photo of and post that as well. This is ABSURB how he handled this situation.

Come prepared as there's not much in the way of groceries, medicine or other shopping. I believe the locals need to head west to Columbia Falls, Kalispell and whitefish for that.
