—THE SPACE—

Perched above the Middle Fork and just steps to Glacier National Park, you’ll see why the founding family of West Glacier chose this location to build their dream home. Built in 1951 with an attention-to-detail and traditional American craftsmanship — the historic River Haus is brimming with charm.

The cherry-red front door welcomes you into a relaxing, sunlight-bathed space that evokes the nostalgic feeling of a happy childhood memory. In fact, years ago the neighborhood kids were often found playing in the backyard as Mrs. Thompson gardened or baked her famous lemon poppyseed cake. The mercantile across the street bustled with locals, hikers and guides while seasonal park employees rode cruiser bikes past River Haus to the Old Belton Bridge to swim.

Things are a little bit different today, but thankfully much is still the same.

We’ve updated and outfitted River Haus with modern amenities that ensure a comfortable stay while also preserving the authenticity and charm that truly makes River Haus special. You’ll enjoy new premium furnishings, large comfortable beds topped with new mattresses and crisp new sheets, plus all the other amenities you'd expect.

Come and experience Glacier National Park in an authentic, intimate and exclusive way. Join us this summer and fall of 2023 - the memories are worth it!
