Harvest Hosts Review + 9 Amazing Harvest Host Locations

An SUV parked with a travel trailer behind it at a campsite with excellent Harvest Hosts reviews

With RVs, #vanlife, and general life on the road more popular than ever, self-contained camping (AKA boondocking) no longer means driving around for hours trying to find the perfect spot. Modern-day camping means you can spend the night at incredible wineries, breweries, museums, and farm campsites. If you perked up at the thought of camping at wineries and breweries, first of all, saaa[...]

8 Things to do in Big Sky Montana (Besides Ski)

A chairlift passing by Lone Peak in Big Sky Montana

Big Sky Montana was on my radar for years. So when a friend's 30th birthday trip to Napa Valley was canceled last summer, I knew exactly where to go instead.With unbelievably gorgeous scenery, proximity to multiple national parks, and an endless number of outdoor (read: naturally socially-distanced) things to do in Big Sky Montana, it was the perfect destination.If you've heard of Big Sky,[...]

The Great 8: Famous South Dakota Landmarks

Have you ever traveled somewhere and fallen way more in love with it than you expected? That was my experience with South Dakota last fall. I suspect it's not just me, though (right?) — South Dakota is unequivocally, if not largely unexpected, a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts and adventurous souls. I don't want to speak for anyone else, but prior to visiting, when I thought of South[...]

6 Off the Beaten Path Restaurants You Can’t Drive to

Boat dock at The Saltry Restaurant Alaska

There's the old saying that the journey is the destination. While I generally agree with that — y'all know I love a good road trip — there are exceptions to every rule. Take, for example, these six off the beaten path restaurants that aren't accessible by car. Getting to the unique dining experiences is certainly a journey, but the destinations themselves are pretty spectacular too.[...]

One of my most common DM questions: the best places to stay near Glacier National Park. 🐻

If you're thinking of visiting next year, know that accommodations book out this far in advance (really!). Book early!

In no particular order, here are several options for a wide variety of preferences and budgets: 

1. @wonderstoneusa - hip, re-imagined motel, super close to the West Glacier (20 mins) without the crazy traffic or prices of West Glacier

2. @goroambeyond - super unique, Instagrammable stay in Columbia Falls that genuinely everyone loves

3. @clarkfarmsilos - converted grain silos in an awesome spot in Kalispell

4. @thecabinsatblacktail - ultra modern tiny cabins in Lakeside (Flathead Lake, which I HIGHLY recommend for at least a night)

5. Flathead Lake Orchard Tent - true glamping experience on the other side of Flathead Lake in Bigfork...plus a sauna and cold plunge! 🥶 @theflawlesselle

6. @Baseglamp - crazy luxurious geodesic domes in Whitefish, and one of the only winter options that's not a hotel

Stills from the dreamiest Montana tiny cabins @thecabinsatblacktail 

The property is literally 4 minutes from Flathead Lake, at the base of Blacktail Mountain Ski Area (and conveniently, 3 minutes from Tamarack Brewing). This area offers 4-season recreation, so trust me - keep these cabins in mind for your next NW Montana trip!

When is the best time to visit Glacier National Park? 

Right now! 

September has always been my favorite time of year to visit, for several reasons...

🚗 Going-to-the-Sun Road (GTTSR) is fully open, and no longer requires reservations after the first part of the month. The general rule is that you need reservations for 1 week following Labor Day weekend. 

👨‍👩‍👧‍👧 People largely view this as a signal that the season's over, so park crowds get dramatically lower when the reservation period ends.

🍂 The weather is FANTASTIC. With that said, I have been snowed in Glacier in June, July, and September 🤣 soooooo pack plenty of 'just-in-case' pieces.

🐻 It's the best season for spotting wildlife! Of course, be extremely cautious and give animals a LOT of room when you do see them.

🥾 It's also the BEST hiking season. Trails are open and clear of snow, waterfalls are flowing from snowmelt, and fall foliage starts early here.

Keep in mind that GTTSR historically closes the 3rd Monday in October, but has occasionally closed earlier. Again, September is best! 🍁

Trails are open and clear of snow, waterfalls are flowing from snowmelt, and fall foliage starts early here. Keep in mind that GTTSR historically closes the 3rd Monday in October, but has occasionally closed earlier. Again, September is best! 🍁 . . . . . . #glaciernationalpark #goingtothesunroad #glacier #nationalparkgeek #nationalparkobsessed #montanagram #redbus #montana #itsbetteroutside

Glacier is known for its epic all-day and backcountry hikes, but this one is an exception.

Sun Point is just 0.2 miles! Really! 🤯

Park in the large Sun Point lot along GTTSR (like almost everywhere else in the park, it fills up quickly, so pack a lot of patience) and follow the signs. The views are almost instantaneous, and you'll stroll along St. Mary's Lake up to the rocky outcrop at Sun Point. 

The views are nearly 300 degrees, so bring lunch or snacks - you'll want to stay awhile. Note that it's also notoriously WINDY, so it isn't the best spot for tripod photography.

From here, you can also easily hike to Baring Falls, St. Mary Falls, and Virginia Falls.

How is this place even real?

This isn't even edited or filtered....I was in this spot for nearly 30 minutes trying to get the "right" shot because the sun and clouds were changing rapidly. I couldn't see my camera screen very well with the glare and wind, so after awhile I gave up, feeling defeated that I couldn't capture what I was actually seeing. 

Took a few quick snaps on my phone on the way out and, well, here's the result. Some places are just really incredibly special.
