Beautiful property and loved having a full kitchen since we needed to store and prep food for our trip into glacier national park the next day. Cabin itself was very nice and looked brand new.

Disliked: Cleanliness
We enjoyed the individual space. However, the cabin was not clean. Some dirty towels left in the closet. The toilet wasn’t cleaned. Counter top was sticky.
We checked in late after hiking in Glacier day and were sent thorough and clear instructions on how to get to our rooms later in the evening. The place is absolutely stunning!
What an amazing place to stay and so close to Glacier! We spent a few hours in Glacier and then drove minutes to our stay at Paddle Ridge. Check in was simple and our rooms were warm, and comfortable. I must admit that the lobby with its big fireplace, huge windows to enjoy the tremendous views, and tables for enjoying a late night snack or play a board game made the hotel much more cozy.
Paddle Ridge is the closest lodging to the West Entrance to Glacier. It was so nice to be so close to the entrance. We went off season so there was hardly anyone around.The surroundings were beautiful and serene. The beds were very comfortable. There were plenty of bath towels and tissue boxes. The shades blacked out ambient light.
Maybe the closes property to west glacier entrance, did not expect dual level property with 2 bedroom and spacious living room with kitchen.
Great for big group travellers, its too big for 3 of us only.
You can book activities in the lobby as well
Quiet except for the room don’t stay on bottom floor of the lodge you hear everything from above. Not as advertised doesn’t look like pictures. Needs a few things added to rooms
We stayed to visit Going into the Sun
At the Glacier Park West
This place had convience
Satellite tv didn’t work cloudy and raining
I’m glad that we downloaded movies on our iPads
Love the place
