Pet friendly! The Cottage is a two minute walk from Flathead Lake. You’ll have access to the boat launch as well as Riverside Rec down the street where you can rent boats or kayaks. There is free public parking on site and you’ll be within walking distance from restaurants, coffee shops and stores. As such, there is foot traffic as well as car traffic, especially in summer. This space has always been a welcome retreat for me and I hope it will be a blessing to you as well. If you’re looking to spend time in Montana and enjoy all the lake has to offer, without paying an arm and a leg, this is the place for you! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Shampoo - Soap - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - TV ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33980000/33979000/33978914/8584e349.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Big Cedar Lodge Secluded Near Flathead Lake - 20 Acres - 6 BD/ 7 BA Sleeps 14+ Bigfork - Free Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning - Games room - Parking available 9.4 Exceptional 42 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=33978914&PinnedHotelID=33978914&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/50000000/49020000/49018000/49017995/0dba8c02.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Flathead Lake views, fireplace, private deck & jetted tub - Whispering Rock Bigfork - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Free Wi-Fi 10 Exceptional 12 reviews £534 includes taxes & fees 24 Jan - 25 Jan [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-24&endDate=2026-01-25&selected=49017995&PinnedHotelID=49017995&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111630000/111626500/111626416/0f25af79.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bull Trout Lodge at Flathead Lake Polson - Washing machine - Dryer 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=111626416&PinnedHotelID=111626416&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/27000000/26660000/26652000/26651970/731ea3b2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Glacier Park/Essex Carriage House 25 miles-East or West Glacier National Park Essex - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Free Wi-Fi 9.8 Exceptional 82 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-06&endDate=2026-02-07&selected=26651970&PinnedHotelID=26651970&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104510000/104504900/104504833/f143ced3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### New!

It was a small but tidy place that was surprisingly quiet due to the location. The utensils were a bit sparse but the coffee pot worked and there was even some coffee and filters to use. Roku on the tv was a new thing to us but we weren’t there long enough each day to matter. Nice place. ##### Lynne L.
