Consider bringing your own cooking supplies, as the kitchen lacks some basics for meal prep, but the cozy atmosphere makes it worth it.

Fresh scones and mountain views

Waking up to breathtaking mountain views while enjoying fresh scones delivered daily made our stay unforgettable. The cottage was spacious, clean, and well-equipped for our adventures.

The internet connectivity was spotty at times, making it a bit challenging to share our travel photos. Additionally, parking was somewhat tight, but manageable during our stay.

The cottage had a great mountain view.

I found the cottages were quite closely positioned. Parking was tight, especially when all cottages were occupied. I experienced poor Wi-Fi connectivity.

The studio was spacious and clean. It had a well-equipped kitchenette with a microwave, kettle, and toaster, which was perfect for our needs. The wet room shower had great water pressure, and the views of the mountains from the balcony were stunning. Parking was a bit tight, but that didn’t overshadow the comfy vibes and cozy setup of the room.

stunning mountain views

cozy cottages

outdated tv

Had a great time with friends! The cozy cottages offered stunning mountain views, and we loved relaxing on the entry patio. The location was perfect for grabbing meals in town and nearby walks. If you’re cooking, keep in mind the kitchen is functional but could use some extras. Totally recommend for a group getaway!

One downside was that the TV was outdated with limited channels. It would be ideal if they upgraded to allow streaming services. Overall, though, nothing major affected our fun!

slow wifi

Had a great time with friends! We enjoyed the cozy kitchen and went glacier hiking and birdwatching. The staff were super helpful and had great local tips. Plus, the view from our patio was amazing. There’s also a small grocery store nearby for supplies.

The wifi was a bit slow in the evenings, which was a little annoying when trying to share photos from the day.

Cozy Cottages with Stunning Mountain Views

I recently spent two nights in a cottage and it was just perfect! The views of the mountains from the deck were absolutely breathtaking, and mornings spent sipping coffee there were unforgettable. The kitchenette was functional for our needs, and the shower had great water pressure. The only downside was the distance to the main road, which made it feel a bit noisy at times, so I recommend keeping the front gate shut.
