Village Inn at Apgar

Glacier National Park


When you lean out on your sunrise-facing balcony at this motel, occupying a serene setting at the southern end of Lake McDonald in Apgar Village, you are quite literally within spitting distance of the park's largest and most tranquil lake. The rooms, rustic and gadget-free, underwent a top-to-bottom renovation in 2015, including new carpeting and bedding.
