Overview

About This Property

Meadow Lake Resort & Condos is a lakeside playground with a championship golf course, a full-service spa, pools, and kid-friendly programs. It’s not cheap, but the on-site amenities and Glacier National Park access make the price feel earned. Peak season can push nightly rates to 663 a night in July, so plan ahead. We chase quality, not bargain-basement thrills.

Your Morning Game Plan

Coffee is available in-room; it's a short drive to decent coffee in Columbia Falls. 23.9 miles to the park entrance, about 25-30 minutes by car. Leave early (6:30–7:00 AM) to beat crowds and start the day with full park access.

The Honest Truth

Not a bargain stay, but a legit resort experience. Clean, comfortable rooms, golf, spa, and pools justify the price if you want a Glacier NP base with on-site activities. Fees stack up (resort fee, cleaning fees, and deposit), but you get year-round access and a range of amenities. If you want a family-friendly, activity-rich getaway near the park, this delivers.

This property is not suitable for guests who need a pet-friendly option or for those seeking a very quiet, secluded retreat.

Reviews from Google

We've stayed in a room (not a condo or bungalow) for 2 nights, while visiting Glacier NP.Location: 20+ mins to West Glacier park entrance. Room: Basic hotel room on the ground floor facing golf course. Enough space for a couple. Very small fridge. Microwave. Table + 2 chairs. Bathroom with all necessities. Quiet. Free parking. We are NOT golfers, haven't used any resort's amenities (charged separately). Instead, we spent our time outdoors.Disliked: Brighter room lighting is warranted. Lobby served morning coffee sucks: brew your own.

No frills place but very nice. Make sure to bring your own shampoo etc since no supplies in kitchen or bath incase you forget yours. Listing said it had a hot tub for use and then we were told the owners said we couldn’t use it. Finally the manager agreed that the listing did state that there was a hot tub for use and he came and unlocked it after a few days of being there. He also made it up to us with a gift card to restaurant which was excellent. Staff were very kind and helpful. Also the resort hot tub is open to everyone was very nice. Great location! Highly recommend.

We stayed here for 4 days in a 1 bed / 2 bath condo with a huge patio facing a garden. It had everything we needed, kitchen, dining area, and plenty of space to relax.The location was perfect, really close to the park and the airport.Every staff we met was great and friendly except for one lady at the front desk on Sunday evening. Not exactly the person you want to deal with after a long day of hiking.That said, if you’re not too picky about service, I’d still recommend this place. It’s convenient, comfortable, and well-equipped.
