    Heading to Glacier or the Flathead Valley this summer? This is theeeee best unique Airbnb! 

The luxury safari treehouse tent is perched high overlooking Flathead Lake (with views from bed!), and it comes with soooo many extras!

🥵 sauna
💦 cold plunge
🚿 outdoor shower
🔥 wood-burning stove

It's near Bigfork, about 1 hour from West Glacier and 25 minutes from Kalispell - perfect basecamp for exploring Glacier Country! Don't miss dinner and drinks 🍻  with a view at The Raven, right up the street.

    The answer: a complete lack of PEOPLE! 

If you've ever been to Glacier in the summer, you know this is a rare sight.

Well, sorta...in order to beat the crowds, all you have to do is deviate from the well-beaten path a bit. Do I sound like a broken record yet? 🤪 

This video was taken on a gorgeous Saturday morning at the Camas Road entrance headed up to North Fork (home of Polebridge and spectacular Bowman & Kintla Lakes). Just 35 minutes away, Apgar Village/West Glacier/Lake Mcdonald were slammed with people.

The attractions and sites you see listed as the 'best' in national parks (and other popular places) are absolutely worth seeing. However, I strongly encourage you to plan your itinerary to hit the most popular sites at off-peak times (sunrise or late afternoon), and spend peak hours off the beaten path. This video is proof of why! 

➡️ Reminder that Glacier, like many other parks, requires advance reservations for entry this summer. The west side entrances are now through September 10, and the east side entrance requirements start July 1. 

➡️ Very important! You need reservations for the specific entrance station you plan to visit! You can't go to North Fork if you got a reservation for St. Mary, etc.

    ⚠️☠️ WARNING ☠️⚠️

It's June 1, which means it's officially that time of year when this account becomes a Montana fan page.

Kidding, kidding...

Or am I? Not really. 🤪

    Still can't get over how this is Utah 🤯 

Temps are seriously heating up, but this is one of the best times EVER to get out and check some of those water and/or wildflower hikes off your Southwest bucket list.

I'm much more of a mountains gal, but there's something truly enchanting about flowing water and colorful flowers in such a harsh environment. 

Remember to prepare for extreme conditions! Bring a TON of water 💧 (calculate how much you truly need, then add more) and snacks, pack light layers, wear sunblock ☀️, use AllTrails or GPS for offline navigation, spend some time learning which critters 🕷 and plants you should avoid, and tell someone back home about your plans ahead of time.

Finally, practice Leave No Trace and be mindful when packing, because you'll have to pack out everything you bring in!

    Which spot speaks to you most: 

🌲 The Blind - half-translucent roof with red hammock
🌲 The A-frame - indoor-outdoor living tiny cabin
🌲 The Shanty - classic tiny cabin with loft interior
🌲 The Ranch Hand - spacious safari tent with a deck (and electricity!)

Great news, friends...you don't have to choose, because these are ALL at @thehohnstead just outside Missoula, Montana 🙌🤩

➡️ If you found this vid from Reels, [save it] + follow for more unique stays (featuring many from MT!)!
