fantastic place to stop for a pit stop on our trip! beverages were fantastic and owners were great to chat with. Definately a great place!

Some friends and I stayed 1 night here and had an amazing time. The staff is incredibly nice and the hike at Stanton lake next to the campsite is beautiful. Highly recommend read more

The food here is amazing! They make everything fresh to order, even hand grinding the beef for the burgers. We tried the burgers the first night, and the spicy burger lived up to it's name! It was delicious and spicy but not over powering. The Mediterranean sampler was also a treat- a generous portion of hummus, veggies, olives and falafel. My kids loved the tacos. They offered beef and pork and both were a hit. While we were there, they were offering a rIb special that was fall off the bone tasty. They offer a full bar with local beers and signature cocktails, and the bartenders were warm and friendly. I definitely recommend stopping in for a meal! read more

I guess they don't like firefighters here, we were refused service at the door. A group of 8 of us arrived on Tuesday August 16, 2016 at 8pm, we were staying nearby at a campground on a group vacation to GNP. As I walked in the door the female bartender greeted me with "We are all out of food, you'll need to go somewhere else." I was a bit surprised because at the bar were patrons holding menus. I asked for a suggestion and she said "I don't know just look for a place off the road." We all rode our motorcycles, I'm sure that's why we're denied, into west glacier about 20 miles away and had a fine meal there. I hope they get a food delivery soon to Stanton Creek and that the place doesn't catch fire, I know a group of biker/firefighters that wouldn't piss on it to put it out. read more

If you go here you can bet you are not on the beaten path. Stanton Creek Lodge is located on US Hwy 2 between the East and West gates of Glacier Nation Park. We stumbled on it because we were ion the park before it opened which means none f the normal restaurants were opened for business yet. Too a flyer, went in and loved it. Jerry is the owner and her has a fun little place to grab a beer and a bison burger. The food is good and fairly priced, but atmosphere is fantastic: exactly what you would expect when you see it. If you are in the area give it a shot... read more

Don't take my word for it, instead read all of the 3 star and under reviews to get a good idea of what you'll be dealing with. Prior to booking here, I found a price online for $99 per night. Since I would be checking in very late, I contacted the hotel to let them know I'd be late and to see if they'd match the price online. Vicki told me yes she could match that but the only room they had left was a deluxe so she'd upgrade us for no charge. As for the late check in, they'd leave a key for us in an agreed upon space. Deal. We arrived at quarter to 11 at night and the key was nowhere to be found. Seemingly no one on premises. We walked around every door/window looking for the key. Nothing. We could see ambient light from a television in an upstairs bedroom so we knocked and waited, knocked and waited. We were about 30 minutes out of town at 11 at night in the mountains with no reception. Finally, at a little after 11 my boyfriend took a flashlight to see if we could find anyone to help us and he found a garage with a light on and noise coming from within. When he opened the door he found a couple guys working under a car who claimed they never heard anyone. Sure, that may be true. One of the men (Mitch?) came out to help and locked my boyfriend out of the bar while he "looked for the key." Apparently he couldn't find the key or record of us booking. When he went back in after talking to my boyfriend, Travis followed him in and pointed to the piece of paper right on top of the desk that had our booking info on it. What is happening here?!? This was finally just past MIDNIGHT and we were finally getting to check into our room. Problems don't end here. We checked into our "cabin" which looks like a cabin from the outside but inside is a rickety pre-fab plyboard unit. The bed was rickety and uncomfortable. No deadbolts on the door and no adequate curtain to block light from the street light from coming into our cabin. NO BATHROOM in a deluxe cabin? We tried to figure out what was deluxe exactly about this? The communal bathroom...you guys. It's bad. It is bad. We are use to staying in shabby hotels. We do it all the time. We rough it. I camp. In a tent. I hike. We like fancy too, but we are not afraid of living without a lot of things. The bathroom doors are not locked so ANYONE can come into then. There were cigarette ashes in both the sink AND the shower. Remember to bring the towels from your room if you do use the shower (we didn't) because there are none in the bathroom. The men's and women's bathrooms are adjoined by a (very dirty) laundry room. At 5am, my boyfriend went to use the restroom and there was a very drunk/high man sleeping against a wall. When Travis opened the door the guy says "oh I'm just here because I got sprayed by bear spray." How do you get sprayed by bear spray, dude? He couldn't even Use the bathroom and not 10 minutes before I was in the women's side by myself. This could easily be a very bad situation for women. This epic experience cost us $108. We've stayed in motels for far, far less that have been way more safe, accommodating, and a far better overall value. We were going to stay here 2 nights but we were able to book that morning at East Glacier Motel & Cabins for $105. You can see my review for them by clicking on my name. I've never stayed anywhere and had such a horrific experience. I strongly recommend you find another place to stay, you are better off sleeping in your car. Contrary to Mitch's narcissistic beliefs, there are many other places to stay near Glacier with comparable pricing where you will be far more comfortable and safe. read more

I am very disappointed in the service at Stanton Creek. My daughter booked us a cabin for a night when we were visiting Glacier National Park. When we arrived they had given us a single bed instead of 2 beds. The manager was very nice, he apologized and said it was his fault he wrote it down wrong but they were fully booked now. He said he would refund my daughters money but since he felt really bad he would find us another room and he would pay for it. He found us a room that was $45 less than originally paid. We went there checked in and the room was disgusting so we left, not going to sleep in a room with bugs, hair all over the beds, the bathroom door didn't close. We have been waiting for the refund and when I called him he said he never would have offered a refund if he was gonna pay for a room. read more

Do NOT book here - they bedding is disgusting and they refuse to give you a refund. We were bitten by bed bugs and found ants all over the cabin. It's located on a highway so its extremely loud. Also, there is no AC. Shared bathrooms are gross. read more

This place was great!! The cabins were very comfortable and very clean, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful with planning trips to the park. It's just a few minutes drive to the west entrance. From everything I saw this is the best deal in the region. The cabins are basic but you are not there to spend time in the cabins because the lodge is so close to the entrance it gives you the option to spend 8 to 10 hours exploring the park every day. The cabins are stand alone so you are not sharing a wall with anyone and they have lots of windows to bring in all that fresh mountain air. I even extended my stay for a day and there was an accidental overbooking, the owners up graded my cabin at no charge. I can't wait to go back next year! read more

Travelers beware! This place is a dump! That might be an understatement. We booked one night on July 4 in a Deluxe Cabin. These cabins are far from deluxe except have a private bathroom. However unless you are a child you cannot sit on the toilet properly and have to sit sideways. The private showers are operated on very small water heaters. By small I mean expect 2-3 minutes of hot water tops before pure cold water. Now let's get into the facility. This place is solely a local hangout which is fine. I'm all about supporting local Montana establishments except when locals drinking bud lights and cheap mixed drinks take over the place. We had dinner at the main lodge. Menu is simple few sandwich options and couple fried food options. During our meal a local was speaking very inappropriately. It never offended us at all but clearly offended another woman who was with her husband having dinner but nobody working said anything to the gentleman who was speaking inappropriately. So we booked this property to get our dog out of city limits to avoid fireworks. I called and spoke to the property directly a couple of times before arriving in addition to check in and never once was it mentioned plan to have a firework show the evening we were staying. In addition, they had a live band playing literally 20 feet outside our front door of cabin until 10:30pm and fireworks went till nearly midnight. Never did we know any of this was going to happen until it started. I would have loved to complain to facility the next morning but nobody was at main office at 8:45am when we checked in. However, the fireworks from night before were still all over along side the main road in addition to some beer bottles and empty glasses. Again I'm all about having a good time and supporting local business. This place turned a establishment usually geared towards hosting travelers into a loud local party when if that's what they wanted they should have shut down reservations read more

New Owners make the stop worth visiting, even if you are not staying overnight! Good food, great drinks, live music often. We fell in love with the place, although we did not stay in the cabins. Owners go out of way to make sure you are comfortable. Food is second to none! If you are heading to Glacier Park in Montana, this is a place to stop on Hwy 2. Tell them Michael and Sandra said HI! Bonus: They will be open year 'round! read more

If you're this far from civilization and want a drink, there's not a lot of options. Nice little bar nestled among the mountain located on hwy. 2 on the south side of GNP. Beer on tap and in bottles, a room to watch some TV in and some decent food to boot. If you don't feel like traveling any farther that evening, you're in luck as they also have nice little cabins to rent you. read more
