Nestled along with our West Glacier Village businesses at the west entrance to Glacier National Park, the Belton Chalet is a National Historic Landmark and a living piece of the history of the Great Northern Railroad and Northwestern Montana.

Living in West Glacier Village offers a quintessential park experience inspired by the 1930’s origins of the community. Staff here enjoy a sense of community in living and working with our other west-side properties

Nestled at the gateway to Glacier National Park, Glacier Basecamp Lodge is the newest addition to the Glacier Park Collection. Featuring guest rooms, extended stay apartments, as well as RV Slips, Glacier Basecamp Lodge is a great option for home base during our guests’ exploration of Glacier National Park and the Flathead Valley.

We are also proud to partner with Starbucks Coffee to provide our Basecamp Lodge guests and passersby with the coffee experiences they know and love that will help fuel their adventures in Glacier National Park.

Standing proudly at the southeast corner of Glacier National Park, Glacier Park Lodge was the first hotel built by the Great Northern Railway. It's been the first stop for exploration to the park for decades, and our staff here are the welcoming faces of Glacier.

Also known as the “Big Tree Lodge,” this historic property is located on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation and is part of a charming little community with all the basic services. Personal vehicles are bonus here for exploring the glacier-carved peaks and valleys of the national park.

It’s a lifestyle so many crave, where the vitality of a busy mountain town meets the tranquility of Montana’s wilderness. Grouse Mountain Lodge, our premier Whitefish, MT hotel, welcomes guests year-round.

Whether the mountain slopes are blanketed in snow or wildflowers, the lodge provides access to the charming town of Whitefish and Whitefish Mountain Resort for skiing in the winter and mountain biking and hiking in the summer.

You’ll find St. Mary Village where the wilderness of Glacier National Park meets the sweeping plains of Montana. The remote settings call to adventurers who live at the jumping-off point to the heart of the park—the intersection of the iconic Going-to-the-Sun Road and the eastside boundary highway (MT 89).

St. Mary Village is tucked into a beautiful landscape and a sense of adventure abounds here. Our backdrop is St. Mary’s Lake on the Going to the Sun Road, surrounded by lodgepole pines and rolling mountains.

The gateway to the Glacier National Park’s west entrance is where staff and visitors can easily connect with the Going-to-the-Sun Road, the Flathead River for floating and fishing, and the incredible hiking in the “Crown of the Continent.”

Living in West Glacier Village offers a quintessential park experience inspired by the 1930s origins of the community. Staff here enjoy a sense of community in living and working with our other west-side properties

The newest addition to the Glacier Park Collection, Glacier Raft Company was founded in 1976 by a bold couple with a dream. Glacier Raft Company is Montana’s longest-running rafting and fly fishing outfitter. Located in West Glacier just a stone’s throw away from the West entrance to Glacier National Park, Glacier Raft Company helps guide our guests on fishing and rafting trips down the crystal clear waters of the Flathead River. Not just a rafting operation, Glacier Raft Company also includes guest lodging, food & beverage, and retail!
