Located in a quiet, rural area 3 miles west of Kalispell, the home is a warm 3 bed/2 bath offering bright, southern exposure and views of Flathead Valley and the Swan Mountain Range. Our home is centrally located with limitless possibilities just a short drive away: \- 3 miles from Kalispell \- 3 miles from Rebecca Farms \- 4 miles to Foys Lake \- 18 miles to Whitefish \- 26 miles to Whitefish Mountain Resort \- 14 miles to Flathead Lake \- 14 miles to Glacier International Airport \- 32 miles to Blacktail Mountain Ski Area \- 45 miles to West Glacier (Glacier National Park) \- 91 miles to East Glacier Endless outdoor opportunities await here: skiing, fishing, hiking, camping, boating, cycling, photography, or just relaxing along a stream or lake. The house is a cozy south-facing home on a hillside overlooking the southern Flathead Valley and Swan Mountain Range. The property covers over an acre and a half of pasture with privacy trees around the house. The exterior offers a paved driveway, patio, perimeter deck, and yard area with a fire pit and seating. Inside you will find 3 private bedrooms sharing two bathrooms as well as the living room, eat in kitchen, (new appliances installed October 2021) sitting room and laundry. Upstairs, one bedroom has closet space and a Queen size bed while the second is smaller with no closet and full-size bed with built in drawer storage. The downstairs bedroom has a closet and plenty of storage space with its own dedicated bathroom. The home is a split level, and the washer and dryer as well as the third bedroom and second bathroom are on the lower level. There is also a living space with TV and work space downstairs. Other areas we would recommend are Kootenai River Falls (Libby) at 96 miles, the National Bison Range (Moiese) at 57 miles or Polebridge (NW entrance to GNP) at 57 miles. To the west the country is dotted with many lakes within an hour that offer plenty of recreation opportunities and easy access for boaters. These areas are generally less busy and make a great addition to a Glacier National Park visit without all the traffic. Popular lakes are Bitteroot (20 minutes), McGregor (30 minutes), and the Thompson chain lakes (50 minutes). ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sledding nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,672 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/32000000/31510000/31507200/31507112/86e162a0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Central Location for Flathead Valley Adventures!
