The manager was kind enough to find us something and sat us outside overlooking the beautiful mountains. We had a fantastic meal. We got the red curry (totally had the flavors of Thai curry, but not too spicy), thick cut bone in pork chop, and the meatloaf. The pork chop was tender and delicious. The meatloaf was kicked to the next level as they seared it and they have a balanced sauce. So delicious! Megan was awesome.

For example, we arrived late one evening from Glacier Park, around 9:00 pm, and I was planning to make some spaghetti for a later dinner for my two kids. When I looked for a pot to boil the noodles, however, I couldn't find one, and then I saw the sign by the phone in the cabin that read "If you need anything," to call their service number. When I called the number, there was no answer, and since I had stayed at the Great Bear Inn before, I walked over to the main building, which was always open for guests, to find someone to help. When I found the place quiet and the manager's office closed, however, I went into the public kitchen area and took a pot, walked back to my cabin, and made the spaghetti. After my family ate the food, I washed and cleaned the pot and returned it to the kitchen. The following day I called the landlady, named "Bunny," and asked what I needed to do to check out the following day. When she asked me why I had called the previous night, I explained I needed to borrow a pot to cook spaghetti, but after I tried calling and then walked over to the office and found no one to help, I borrowed one from the public kitchen area, used it to boil the noodles, and after eating, I had cleaned the pot and promptly returned it to the kitchen. Bunny was irate and scolded me for doing this, insinuating that I had broken some sort of unpublished rule that the kitchen was off limits to guests. When I objected and said that I had both called and walked to the office for help, she was became rude to me, saying that she had an early bedtime schedule and could not be bothered after 9:00 pm. When I expressed my dissatisfaction at this blatant disregard of the customer's need, she became hostile, and when I told her that I had paid over $1500 to stay in the supposedly furnished cabin for three nights and therefore had a reasonable expectation to have the place furnished as was stated in the advertisement. When Bunny insisted that the pot I had needed was included in the kitchen area, I looked once again and finally found it -- but it was stored behind a wooden panel that was stuck due to poor maintenance of the property. When I explained this to her she was entirely unsympathetic and cold toward me... I have no ill-will toward Bunny and her husband Larry who manage the new version of the "Great Bear Inn." I had stayed at the resort twice before in previous years and under the former management my experience then was happy and the service was excellent. However I can no longer recommend the Great Bear Inn because the new management apparently has no idea of what decent customer service means. Let me close by saying that on the day of our departure, Larry, the husband of Bunny, aggressively came to the cabin and pounded on the door telling us to get out because it was almost 11:00 AM. At the time I was washing dishes we used there because there was a sign posted that said that all residents must wash the dishes before leaving, but Larry told me to just forget it and get out... He and Bunny then sat in their noisy ATV jeep in front of cabin until we finished packing the car and we drove off.... Disgraceful and childish behavior, to say the least, and I will NEVER stay at the Great Bear Inn again. For these and other reasons, not the least being the $500 per night price for staying there, I EMPHATICALLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THE GREAT BEAR INN.

But now after looking at other reviews, I should have known to expect small... but man was the room small!! We don't mind rustic, but this was really cramped. I don't mean to parrot other reviews, so just peruse the ones describing how small it really is, and see attached photos. I noticed at least one review mentioned a kitchen - we did not have one; there wouldn't be anywhere for even a small fridge to be in the room we were in! Based on the West Glacier Village website, it looks like the cabins are renovated, have kitchens, a/c, etc. The motel, not so much. I could deal with small, but I had to knock it to 2 stars since I made a disgusting discovery behind the bathroom door - - someone's old, wet (I'm assuming; I didn't touch it but it looked damp) underwear and shirt, yuck!! I was shocked to see that a review from 7 years ago mentioned finding underwear behind her door too... what??! For a place so tiny, you'd think they'd do a better job of checking and cleaning the small space! The room was quite dim, so I didn't want to go barefoot after my find; I wore shoes or flip flops the whole time, including in the teeny shower. Fortunately, we were there for less than 10 hours, just to shower and sleep before heading on our way. It was really hot and hard to sleep, but at least they had an old fan that helped circulate the air. I know we were fortunate to be able to reserve anything in the area, but for sanitary reasons, the rooms (or at least the one we were in) could benefit from a renovation. And I would've felt much better if they cleaned the rooms better... I could see the dirty clothes; who knows what else was there that we couldn't see...

I arrived super early and went to check in knowing there was a big probability I wouldn't be able to get into my room yet. Fortunately, the lady was super accommodating and checked me into a room that was ready. The room is super tiny but it was all I needed since I spent most of my time out exploring. The room was clean and furnished properly and had all the items I could possibly need. The bathroom and shower were small but clean and all of your towels and linens are provided. This location is extremely convenient and legit a 30 second walk from Lake McDonald. The views are spectacular. Each room had a designated parking spot right out front. That was great because I did come and go several times from restaurants and hiking. Due to COVID they are not coming into your room each day to clean but will happily provide you any additional items upon request. I only stayed for two nights so I did not have to request anything. I sent out a few post cards during my stay and the front desk was able to mail them out for me. You are in walking distance to several shops, Eddie's Cafe, water sport rentals and several hiking trails. The price was very reasonable when I booked. I can't wait until the day I can go back again!
