The property fit my needs. It was clean and convenient to the West entrance of Glacier National Park as well as the Many Glacier entrance and St Mary's entrances of the park. It is not the Hilton, and rather rustic but again it fit my needs. Check-In was easy, just at the general store. The heater worked wonderfully as it does cool off at night this time of year.

Very much enjoyed staying here the night before we went to Many Glacier. Mark and crew were super helpful and let us store our bags in the store all day because it was raining and we were in a pickup. Dining options are limited in East but the pizza place was good. Units 1 and 2 are connected and have a small kitchen so you can cook.

Whistling Swan was a very nice, reasonably priced location near the Two Medicine entrance to Glacier Park. Check in was easily accomplished at the mercantile and the clean rooms were very comfortable. Thanks to the family owners, we hope to be back!

The inside was clean, but the bathroom was very small. The window by the bed hed no full screen, but just a small portable screen that we had to remove in order to lock the window. Otherwise anyone could have raised the window from the outside & removed the screen & climbed in the window. The exterior was unkept & parking was cramped. We had to go a couple of blocks down the street to a business to check in.

Decent stay
The room wss clean. The room was rustic. Beds were fairly comfortable. Some reviews were bad some were good. Adjust your expectations and you will be fine. The train station is across the street, yes you will hear it. It is not the four seasons, but the care takers were kind and the place was cute.

The property looks quite old from outside, but really clean and convenient from inside. The only comment is the very small washroom with the sink outside in the kitchen area. The place surprisingly has a full kitchen including a stove and a full size fridge. They also provided utensils, pans, plates and cups.

Don’t judge a book by its cover.
Arrived early in the night; limited signage of parking and lobby. No one in the office; had to go a block to a business to obtain room key. Large bathroom! Limited access to electrical outlets in the sleeping area.

Nice Motel
We liked this motel. Not much parking space but nice cute place. There are a few places to eat in town. Close to Two Medicine park entrance. Fairly close to Saint Mary too.

Been here several times before over the years, check in is at the grocery store, convenient and laid back, we’ve never had a bad stay here. Exactly what we need while traveling through.

Eclectic small property. Our room was one of the original older ones with very quaint touches. Loved the wood throughout and the crazy doors. We stayed just a night while passing through but it was great for our needs.

Few options in Glacier
There are so few options for accommodations in Glacier but perhaps it’s best to stay at the lodge if you book early enough and can swing it. Whistling Swan was clean and the bed was comfortable. However the room was very small, no soap/shampoo/kleenex/coffee or anything in the room, and located on a sketchy street where you can hear the loud sounds of trains during the night.
