About this house rental

The StoneHouse at Duck Lake was designed and built by Montana songwriter, David Walburn, as a private retreat for outdoor enthusiasts, hikers, fishermen, hunters and eco-minded travelers. If you are looking for a unique Montana vacation rental with access to real Montana adventures, look no further than the StoneHouse at Duck Lake.

Those who appreciate the wild beauty of Montana's east side, will also appreciate the simple artisan approach to this unique rustic home with exquisite views of Glacier Park's mountains.

The StoneHouse sits on a beautiful scenic ridge with panoramic views from the Cut Bank Plains to Chief Mountain and is centrally located to quickly access St. Mary's and Many Glacier entrance points into Glacier National Park.

David designed and built the StoneHouse using green building materials to enhance its durability and energy efficiency against the wild eastern Montana climate. He recently added a sauna to help our guest's relax from a day's outdoor adventures

-------MAIN LEVEL---------
The main level of the StoneHouse has two bedrooms:
1) First bedroom offers a QS bed with adjacent door to main bathroom. Sleeps 2
2) Second bedroom has a QS bed and bunk bed and can sleep up to 4 people (2 adults/2kids)

The StoneHouse can accommodate up to 6 people.

The main level Bathroom is a full bathroom with a sink/vanity plus a shower/tub combo. ***Please note that we are on hard water and the bathroom has natural "stains" of mineral water from the well. Water is pure, clean and safe to drink

The kitchen is fully equipped with refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and kitchen range. We have all the kitchen amenities to create a wonderful meal for family and friends. The open floor plan in the main room is perfect for connection, conversation and cooking!

------LOWER LEVEL-----

One room with a queen bed and attached to a full bathroom.

Game room with full sized professional slate pool table!


We do not offer Wi-Fi. The reliability of wifi in our rural location made it impossible to keep a connection. We do have some access using Verizon so we encourage guests to use their phone as personal hotspots if needed. Unplug and enjoy the mountains and wildlife! (Version users can get great signal and use phone as hotspot for internet service. Sorry, no AT&T service available.

I believe this is our 5th or 6th stay here, we've kind of lost track. We enjoy the peace and quiet of the Stonehouse versus the chaos and poor restaurant options in the park, but with relatively quick access to St. Mary's, Many Glacier and some of the best hiking and wildlife opportunities that Glacier Park has to offer. Once again, we saw a mother Black Bear and her two cubs out the dining room picture window just across the road in the meadow. I'm guessing it might be the same mom we've seen in previous years. Thanks again David and family for sharing your home with us. We hope to be back in 2026.

Geat location on the east side of Glacier National Park providing quick access to St. Mary's Valley, Logan's Pass, and Manny Glacier Valley sections of the park. Also just a 45 minute drive to Waterton National Park in Canada.

Owner responded promptly to all questions. Setting was gorgeous. It had ample supplies of towels, kitchen towels, dishes, plus many extras. Very close to St Mary's & Many Glacier.

Great location for easy access to Many Glacier and St. Mary's entrances to GNP. Clean, comfortable, well stocked. Enjoy a most stunning view of the mountains of Glacier from the dining room table all day, every day. Loved the quiet, unplugged, remoteness of this location. No wifi. Verizon service worked best. Great communication from host at all times before, during and after the visit. Shop before you arrive as grocery stores nearby are limited (host told us that ahead of time as well) Saw moose, deer and cows on the land behind the house. Would stay there again and will recommend to friends. Perfect for those who want a quieter, Glacier National Park experience.

We enjoyed the house and the property. The views and location are ideal for East side (i.e., less crowded) entry into the park. Our only negative is that the basement is musty smelling. It would improve the house if there was a way to minimize that smell. While it wasn't a problem for our family members that stayed downstairs, there are others for whom that would have been unpleasant. Communication with owner was easy.
