Wonderful location and spacious family base for exploring Glacier
This quirky and cozy cabin's highlight is its location inside the park, giving access to the Going to the Sun road without a vehicle reservation, and allowing you to start your day in the park without wading through the vehicle entrance lines. Our family enjoyed playing games at the dining table and walking to the ice cream shop window steps away. Do not miss the Nature Center and afternoon ranger talks just a two minute walk away. Overall, the price is very high for the dated, quirky interior and low quality linens and mattresses, but it was all perfectly fine and we were happy with the location, cleanliness and spaciousness of this property.

Wonderful stay in Apgar House!
We had a great stay in Apgar House! The house is in a wonderful location. It’s a VERY short walk to Eddie’s, gift shops, Glacier Outfitters, the nature center, and most importantly Lake McDonald! We loved the convenience of walking down to the lake to enjoy the water and views after a day of hiking. The house is comfortable and clean. The stairs going into the property need to be taken with care, but other than that, the property is great. The manager at Eddie’s was awesome with any questions or needs we had. We would stay again.

Why they chose this property

We bought this house when we bought Eddie's Cafe, Gifts, & Ice-Cream shop, so our family could be together & enjoy the perks of working in Glacier National Park.

What makes this property unique

Apgar House, being located inside the park and near Lake McDonald allows me and my family the unique opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the park without the standard tourist traps. Those being the sometimes long car lines to get through the entrance, especially the parking as Apgar Village is the most visited area of the park. Having the house off the main section affords us the privacy we seek, yet it's only steps away from all the park activities and the trails.
