[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We love renting a house in Whitefish on the water.  We also rent a boat for a few days.  Flathead Lake is also lovely.  Whitefish is only 45 minutes from Glacier National Park, which has endless hikes, plus kayaking in Lake McDonald is beautiful, especially at dusk.  If you have young kids, they might like the mountain coaster and alpine slide at Whitefish Mountain Resort.  If you have older kids, rent mountain bikes there and try downhill biking. [/quote]

Thank you for this information, PP!  I will definitely check out both Whitefish and Flathead Lake.  Sounds wonderful!

We also stayed in this area and really enjoyed it. Easily more than enough to see and do to keep you busy for at least a week. Make sure you get the day passes for Glacier entry either 4 months in advance when the window opens, or the day before at I think 7 PM (on the dot) local time. They are available and if you are fast about it you will be able to get day entry passes, but you have to be ready when the booking windows open. It's only $2 for each day entry pass so worth it to just grab them even if you aren't sure which ones you will use (this is separate from the actual park entry fee which is $35 and paid once the first time you enter or online). You can always release/return any day passes the day before if you aren't going to go to Glacier. The pass system did a good job of managing the crowds- it was definitely busy but not to the point of breaking. Nice work by the Park Service.[/quote]
