One of West Glacier's nicest properties, Glacier Guides Lodge is set in a quiet pocket just off Hwy 2, opposite the West Glacier train station. It's an attractive wooden B&B-style lodge (built to LEED standards) with a stylish, rustic authenticity that doesn't forsake creature comforts such as wi-fi, air-con and TV. Rooms are discounted to $169 during spring and autumn.
