We loved this house and it was perfect for our stay. The house is very clean and comfortable and has everything. We felt right at home. The location is great, in a nice neighborhood and a short drive to the Glacier National Park entrance. It is within walking distance of a couple restaurants. The hosts are extremely helpful, responsive, and provided information on the house and area. We will definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay & wish we had scheduled more down time at the house. Plenty of space for all 6 of us, house was well-stocked and clean, with books, games, places to store clothes, comfortable beds. Loved having the outdoor picnic table and chairs. Easy drive to Glacier NP, Whitefish, and nearby airport. The owner provided tons of information about local restaurants and notes about visiting the national park and was very responsive. Would definitely return.

The Avocado house was the perfect property for us! We came to enjoy the National Park and this was the perfect home base. We had 8 people, a baby and a very small dog. There were plenty of beds for all. The young adults loved the downstairs space. It was super clean and remodeled exactly as specified in the listing. We used the bikes, the fire pit for snores and had an enough space to just chill. The master bedroom and bath were amazing.The hosts were very quick to respond to all our needs. Hope to return soon!

The Avocado house is a cute place to stay. It was great for traveling with children. Plenty of space on the lower level for children to sleep and play. Close enough to Glacier Park, Whitefish and Flathead National Park for day trips.

Avocado Abode was a fantastic landing pad for our two families (4 adults, 4 kids). Everything was perfectly arranged, clean, and exactly as listed. Communication from Darren and Leslie was fantastic and responsive, they anticipated all of our needs. We greatly enjoyed the lovely backyard and yard toys, and the basement bunk room was perfect for our kids. They were smitten with the avocados! Highly recommend!

My husband, myself and my daughter spent 5 wonderful nights in the Avocado Abode. The owners have done a fantastic job of bringing this 100 year old home back to life. Very quiet neighborhood…felt totally safe. The home itself has everything you might need. Super cute and comfy. I will definitely stay here again!

The house is about 30 minutes from the west entrance to glacier national park and only about 10 minutes from whitefish. The house was very well stocked and in great condition. The beds were comfortable (which you don’t always find with rentals). We would definitely recommend this house to friends and family.
