Perfect for our Glacier National Park Adventure!
My husband and I stayed here for a week for our Glacier National Park honeymoon. This house was absolutely wonderful! The location was perfect -15-20 min from the park entrance and close to restaurants and shops in Columbia Falls and Kalispell. The house itself was clean and cozy. My husband and I enjoyed making breakfast together in the morning in the kitchen and using the fire pit for s'mores and stargazing at night. Kate was an absolutely stellar host! She left champagne and chocolates for my husband and I to find in the fridge upon our arrival, as well as huckleberry pastries to munch on throughout the week. She always responded quickly and gave us great recommendations for restaurants. She even sent us a quick message to let us know that the northern lights were visible one night of our stay. We had an amazing experience and can't recommend this place enough!

Absolutely what the doctor ordered!
If you're looking for peace and tranquility yet being only a few minutes from town or Glacier National Park, this is the place! The kitchen had everything I could have possibly needed to prepare meals. The living room was ultra comfortable. My bedroom was perfect! Cleanliness was top-notch! There's also great outdoor seating areas (I'm a big fan) surrounded by huge pine trees. I spent a disproportionate amount of time sitting outside!! Kate, the host, was wonderful from the get-go. I would highly recommend staying here to anyone I know!

Wonderful stay for Glacier National Park Trip
We just got home from a perfect week spent exploring Glacier National Park with our good friends. The four of us stayed at the Hillside House which is a very easy 15 minute drive from the west entrance to the park. The Hillside House provided EVERYTHING you need for a comfortable stay. The house is immaculately clean and comfortable. Our hosts provided everything you could possibly need right down to newspaper and kindling for making fires in the outside fire pit. Our favorite thing to do after a day of hiking was to light the gas fire and relax in the massage chairs. The beds and bedding were very comfortable so we had no problem at all unwinding and relaxing before the nexts days hike. I highly recommend this house to anyone traveling to the Glacier National Park area. We were a party of four 60+ year old hikers but the house would be equally perfect for families with young children as there are plenty of toys in the bunk room and a large, beautiful yard to play in too.

Spotted a bear
Hands down the best property I’ve ever rented. Property just as described, only better. Perfect proximity to Glacier National park, with plenty of restaurants and grocery very close. All basics you could possibly want and then some. Owners very easy to communicate with and very friendly. Beautiful yard and property. First evening there, a bear was wandering out of the woods. Exciting for us! Saw dear every day and evening. Place was so clean and beautifully decorated. Plenty of books and games too. Beds very comfortable which is always important. I would definitely recommend for anyone planning to stay in this area!

Everything we hoped for at Hillside House!
My wife, son, and I travel with another family with 2 teenage kids. We chose Hillside House due to its location to Glacier National Park and the wonderful reviews. We could not have been more pleased with this great house, the owner who was super helpful, and the location. It was everything we hoped for. It was extremely clean and well kept inside and out. It had everything we needed and then some. We were extremely comfortable. We enjoyed parking the cars in the garage, making smores by the campfire, hiking the trails around the house and seeing the wildlife. The fireplace was nice on cool mornings. We enjoyed making our picnic lunches for the day and used coolers and ice packs that were available. Having so many things available for us to use in the house was a very nice and much appreciated touch. We loved the coffee maker that we set to start early each morning before we headed out to the park. The owner came out to welcome us and offered suggestions for our trip. If we return to the area we will definitely be looking to stay at Hillside House again. We could not have been more pleased!

We stayed for Memorial Day 2024 with 6 adults and 1 infant. It was the perfect space for us to enjoy the weekend. Both the indoor and outdoor spaces were lovely and well kept. It was nice to be able to explore the property and watch hummingbirds. The proximity to the park was very convenient. Host was very communicative. We would definitely book this place for a small group again!

Great Glacier Vacation
The home had everything a traveler could possibly need. The kitchen was fully stocked, coffee, tea condiments, spices. Even had 1 bedroom set up with toys to keep a child entertained. Now let’s talk about location, literally 8 miles from the West Glacier entrance, doesn’t get much better than that. I could go on and on, bear spray, whistles, coolers, ice packs for the cooler, more linens than you could ever use, great stove, coffee maker, dishwasher and all top of the line appliances. A nice big screen TV to relax at the end of a busy day. Over the top in every way.

Charming House - Solitude in the Woods
There is so much to love about the "Hillside House"! Clean and VERY quiet. The kitchen was well stocked with many extra plates, pots 'n pans, spices, coffee, utensils; excellent newer appliances. There was an great selection of almost new towels. The amazing gas fireplace in living room was so efficient we never used the house heat even when temps were in the 40°s outside. There are beautiful hardwood floors, pleasing decor, games, books, throw pillows. There is excellent internet service - no television but who comes to Montana to watch tv? The grounds were lovely and well maintained. The location, just 1.4 mi. off the main highway is about 10.5 mi. to the West Glacier NP entrance. There are nearby restaurants just east on the main highway and even a little grocery store just west. Our favorite nearby restaurant was Glacier Taphouse and Pizza. Super 1 Foods, a large, modern supermarket, is ~11 mi. west in Columbia Falls, and open 24/7 (thank you Kate!). Nearby towns such as Kalispell and Whitefish are fairly close if you're not exploring the parks. Whitefish has many restaurants and shops, and an iconic working rail depot and museum, plus live theater productions. If you're in Kalispell, we highly recommend touring the Conrad Mansion Museum. Lastly, our communication with our host, Kate, was fantastic! Before, during and at the end of our stay, she was always there for us, responsive, cordial and unobtrusive. Thank you Kate!

This house was a perfect stay for our family trip to Glacier. The house looked exactly as pictured. We loved sitting on the deck enjoying the quiet mornings and evenings. Even saw a doe and fawn and a hen turkey with her babies. The host, Kate, kept us well informed of the wildfires nearby.

Great experience and amazing host.
We loved staying at the Hill house in Martin City. It is a great property and well taken care of. Beautiful setting, quiet, and clean. The proximity to Glacier NP is so convenient. I could go on and on about the house. It is definitely a 5/5. Beyond that, we can’t thank our host, Kate, enough. She took care of all that you’d expect and more. Our battery died in the Glacier and she was nice enough to shuttle our family from the park to the house (twice due to size of vehicle) even making a stop for us to pick up food. We can’t say enough about her and her family. Wonderful people. If you’re looking for caring people to host your family vacation, this booking/property for you. When we return, we won’t stay anywhere else.

This house was so well-equipped with everything we needed.

Didn’t have to worry about things like toilet paper, paper towels, coffee, soaps, etc. Everything was on hand! Very cute, cozy and clean little place. We even picked and ate some huckleberries from the yard! The days of our stay were so jampacked with hiking that I only wish we had more time to enjoy this sweet space we rented!
