There is plenty of parking and restrooms and it seems like the park is still under construction and there will be more to come.

We went to the resort late July to hike so we purchased tickets for the lifts and alpine slide…read more The parking lot is quite big so there are plenty of parking spaces. The main building was empty except for a couple of employees selling tickets. I thought it could definitely use a refresh but we were not there for the lodge. We rode up 2 lifts to reach the top of Whitefish Mountain. There are two peaks you can take lifts up and we went to the higher peak for one if the longer hikes. Both lifts were easy to get on, getting off was a little sketchy as we had to quickly jump off and move several steps forward to avoid being hit by the lift. Thank goodness for the lift operator assisting people off the lift! I'm sure it's much easier to exit when skiing. The ride up was great. Such beautiful views! There is a small bar/restaurant at the top with amazing patio views and a restroom. We hiked down the Danny On Trail From the top. There are plenty of trail Markers so you cannot get lost. We did see a sign warning us of bear activity while hiking but we never actually saw any animal activity, not even a deer. A majority of the trail had beautiful views of Whitefish Lake. The lower part of the hiking trail was covered with dozens of people picking huckleberries so you just had to navigate around those groups. The hike took approximately 3 hours to reach the Alpine Slide area. You could ride the slide down or jump on the ski lift to go down. Whichever you purchased tickets to do. There are is also a separate trail for mountain bikers but we didn't cross those trails until closer to the Alpine slide area. We purchased tickets for the Alpine Slide so we jumped in line which went quickly. There are two slides to choose from. One slide is "fast" and the other is slower and more scenic. We chose the scenic as it was our first time on the slide. You can also choose the speed as you navigate down the slide. The slide drops you right off at the bottom of the resort so you can walk directly to the parking lot. I would definitely recommend the hiking and Alpine slide. It was very scenic and a wonderful experience.

The only reason why I'm giving them 4 stars and not 5 is because they have absolutely NO SECURITY CAMERAS at the ski racks. I went inside to buy some pictures that this ski resort took of my wife and I and 10min later I came outside and my skis were stolen! Be careful! The ski resort said they could pull the security footage and after they made me wait 40min they said they actually didn't have cameras pointing to the ski racks so there was nothing they could do! Ridiculous. My rental skis were stolen and they did nothing to try and find who did it. They should 100% have security cameras pointing to the ski racks!

Half of us went on TK's raft while the rest of us went on Carly's raft. I was with Carly who was an amazing guide. She was so nice and sweet. Very knowledgeable of our surroundings such as the landscape and very few wildlife we came across. I loved it so much, I went on the Rapids rafting the next day with just my boyfriend and I. Our guide was Niels. He was amazing as well! He knew a lot about not just the GNP, but of Montana itself. If you're looking for more of a fun experience, I suggest the whitewater rapids rafting! That was so much fun. I wish it was longer and had more intense rapids lol

We had a previous guide on the raft with our group and a grandmother with her granddaughter. The granddaughter was the only one of us that jumped into the ice cold water during a calm section of the tour. The water is very cold. They provided wetsuits, fleeces and a wind breaker. Minnow was friendly and had a steady dialogue about the area: River, wildlife, plants, history, and more. She steered the raft and directed us when we needed to paddle. It was a beautiful day and we had a great time. We were in a raft with a great group of people. I highly recommend the white water tour. They also offer a lazy river tour if you don't want to get wet and just want to enjoy the scenery.

I went out two days with Mark, both yielded amazing fishing with a scenic backdrop like no other. Turns out there was more, apparently there was a nice hatch happening, it had just started and started early. I didn't have the fly and didn't know of the hatch, but Mark did and tied some flies for our trip. The cutthroat couldn't stay off the fly! This was my sons first trip flyfishing. Mark was beyond patient and proved to be a great teacher. He caught fish after fish after fish. Such gorgeous cutthroat from beginning of the day until the end (both days). I also caught more fish than can be counted and learned so much from Mark in our two days on the water. Mark has since helped me out a lot with tips and tricks whenever I reach out. He's been great! The scenery was like the fishing -second to none. There were so many moments I had to pinch myself. I was floating through Glacier on the Flathead catching fish. Daydreaming and watching the Eagles I was fine to to just float, but no! Interrupted by another trout striking my line, time to bring it in and out the line out! Before booking, I was a little hesitant, it's not cheap to hire out a guide. However, at the end of the second day, I felt like I had actually received a great deal! This was supposed to be a once in a lifetime experience, but I've decided that I'll have to go back and do it again! Thanks Mark and look forward to the next trip!

The scenery was gorgeous and our guide, Mo, was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and fun. We had lunch in a meadow and learned about different kinds of trees and wildflowers. We also learned a lot about how landscapes change over time. I really appreciated how Mo led friendly discussions about different aspects of the terrain. Because she studied ice, her expertise is very specific and in-depth. I would recommend this experience to anyone who wants to experience a comprehensive guided hike of Glacier National Park. I hope to take part in another activity with the institute in the future.
