TEAKETTLE KOTTAGE
About this cottage rental
Little home near the center of Columbia Falls. 16 miles from the west entrance of Glacier National Park and only 35 miles to Polebridge. Fenced yard, pets are negotiable! Off street parking for 4 cars or even 3 cars and an rv or trailer. Enjoy a fire at night and barbeque to your hearts content. This quaint little home will welcome you with open arms after an exhausting day of breathtaking sights that Glacier Park has to offer. Other sleeping arrangements are available upon request. The fruit trees will be abundant with fruit around August and we suggest picking as many plums as you desire. Walking distance to eateries and local pubs for those late evenings returning from the park. Columbia Falls is located fairly close to the train tracks so expect a train to be hitting its horn at all times of the day! The owner works for Glacier National Park in the St. Mary district of the park so feel free to ask any questions regarding road conditions and park information.

Wanted to stay 2 nights. Called owner who said he couldn't be responsible for nature. Silverfish, spiders and red beetles were all over the inside. The bed the kitchen the bathroom, everywhere. The owner said he'd send an exterminator the 2nd night. The exterminator said we could not re-enter due to the material he used. I must receive a full refund on this property as we couldn't sleep at all the first night and had to find other accommodations the 2nd night. I told the owner to rent the 2nd night to others and he never responded. I don't think I'll use VRBO anymore if you approve bug invested listings like this on your site.

Location is good and close to town but is right by the train so as long as you are not in the cottage much it is fine. The property is ok but definitely small and with a few low cost little TLC items could improve the experience. We bought hangars so the next tenants will have some! . Feels like someone is living there with leftover items in fridge and chipped dishes ietc. No dining table to eat so you need to eat out on on the sofa. Nice washer and dryer. Good communication from owner.

We enjoyed the Kottage! It was a great little place and very convenient to Glacier NP. The fenced in yard was great for our dogs.

The Kottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location is fantastic! We had our bicycles which made getting around town a breeze. I would recommend to anyone that want to be close to the park without the crowds of Whitefish.

We found Teakettle Cottage to be very cozy for the two of us and our pup. There is a good sized yard for our dog to wander around and is fenced. Yes, there is train noise. I wore earplugs so it didn’t bother me. Otherwise neighborhood very quiet. Driving distance to Glacier is only about 20 minutes = we left between 5-6AM so we could enjoy the park before the crowds. Watch out for deer on the road on the way! Multiple restaurants only a few blocks away. Bring your own shower supplies like shampoo/conditioner as not provided. Great to have a washer/dryer as we were covered with dust due to road work/rough gravel roads in park. Air conditioning was a treat after days close to 100 degrees. Internet worked great for streaming Netflix, etc. Host very responsive.

The teakettle kottage was close to everything. The cabinets are well stocked. The checking process was easy, we did not stay in the room very much, we were out exploring the park and other nearby towns. Will stay here again if we get to come back.

Small inexpensive things could improve the experience. There was leftover food from previous renters in the refrigerator, and in the cupboards that was a little disgusting. It’s nice to have spices and oils, but leftover condiments/salad dressing and half eaten bags of potato chips should never be left for new renters. The one ice tray in the freezer next to the leftover ice cream, was cracked and broken and useless. There were no hangers in the closet to hang clothes up, the plates and glasses had chips in them, there was no Kleenex, there was not adequate coffee, and there was no soap for the shower. The lawn could have used some mowing also. The towels could be upgraded. It appeared that there was somebody sleeping in the camper in front of our place. That made it a little creepy.

Me and my girlfriend flew up from Texas and stayed here for Glacier National Park. It's close to Whitefish (good grub check out Abuzzos) and the park. The lodge had everything we needed, pots, pans, gas range, gas pit outside but I'd check to make sure its filled prior to arriving. Owner is very detailed on access instructions. Columbia Falls is a busy town with some industries so a train does go by near the property occasionally, nothing a little drink or two cant make you nod off, though. Thanks again! Oh and they have firestick with netflix, amazon, HBO, etc.

This is a cute little place. It’s very neat, tidy, and clean. As a solo traveler with a dog, it was so nice to have a fenced in yard for my dog to enjoy. Only 15 miles from GNP and 1.5 hours from Canadian border. I would definitely recommend staying here.

We spent our vacation here and couldn't have picked a better place and location. We had such a fun time! We would definitely stay again. I couldn't believe the cleanliness and all the things in the Kottage...we didn't need a thing. I would highly recommend this property!

We had a great time at our stay. The house had everything we needed and was cozy, clean and comfortable. We had one little issue checking in, but the owner got back to us quite quickly. We would stay there again and recommend for any couple looking for a nice stay near Glacier.

The only reason I gave 2 stars is because it was clean and and cute and pretty well stocked aside from no microwave. Pay very close attention to the train reference in the ad. This home is no more than 300 feet to not just a track but a crossing where the lights flash and bells clang and the train honks 2 times. It is a heavily used track and our last night there was no less then 20 trains. It is very loud all night long. Add to that the bed is like sleeping on plywood, like a very cheap motel. I spent 4 nights in recliner my husband slept on a small sofa much of the time. And it should be noted that though they advertise tv as entertainment there is no service provided you have to bring your own and stream to the provided TV. The ad should specify this. We paid way to much for this place. So maybe if your really young and don't sleep it might be suitable but if you are over 40 forget it.

The cottage was clean, comfortable, and cozy. The refrigerator and kitchen was well stocked. We really enjoyed our stay. The railroad crossing is very close to the cottage and 4 to 5 times a night the trains come through blowing the whistle.

Great location, dog-friendly, super clean. The fenced-in yard was beautiful. Washer and dryer were a nice perk after a week of traveling! We wished we would have reserved more days here!

Affordable and central location. Compact cottage. Has washer dryer. No microwave but there is a grill. Close to the rail road so you will hear the train. There should be larger and darker curtains for privacy. TV with cable channel would be nice.

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights in July 2021. The house is well-equipped with everything you need in a small space. The AC was a nice addition! We also enjoyed the food truck night on Thursday just down the street. Recommend!

My husband and I had a great time staying here for our honeymoon! The house has all your basic needs and is a comfortable place to relax and unwind after exploring Glacier Park. It’s 20 minutes from the West entrance as well as being 20 minutes from Whitefish and Kalispell. There are several nice restaurants within walking distance (gunsight saloon, back room tavern and back slope brewing were our favorites) and we really liked Smiths grocery store in Columbia Falls too! Only thing to be aware of is there is no microwave and there is another rental property that you share the driveway with- neither of those things ended up being a problem for us though. We loved our stay and Sean was great at communicating if we had any questions or concerns.

It’s a cute space. Clean and worked great for two people. The host was very responsive when we had questions, and it’s within walking distance to several restaurants and a grocery store. Heads up: There is a tv but you’ll have to connect your phone or iPad to watch on your device’s streaming service. Overall we were very content with this rental.

This location and home are amazing! Upon arrival we were pleasantly surprised by a window air conditioning system given the current heat. The home is very clean, has info on glacier as well as personal tips/suggestions from the owner (that were utilized and much appreciated)! No microwave, however otherwise we’ll stocked and the stove worked well for cooking. Great size and location for 2 going into glacier west daily.
Wish we could have booked our entire trip duration at this home. Highly recommend.

Unit was well equipped for the limited space provided and offered a lot of charming amenities and touches. The outside patio was a nice touch as well when the evenings got cooler. Be sure to connect with the host the day leading up to arrival to ensure keypad entry info is provided. Also, during the warmer weather of the week when we stayed there, the unit got very warm.
