Although we were not able to stay at Tim’s property due to a wind storm, Tim was upfront and easy to work with about everything and we would consider staying with him again.

Before booking this property for our trip, I had read through all the previous reviews. Those reviews were accurate, and we are glad that we chose this house. It is quite spacious, much larger than we expected. We rarely even set foot in two of the rooms, the large TV room and the second bedroom. What we liked best was the view from the big deck of the Somers area, Flathead Lake and the mountains behind the lake. It is spectacular.
The drive up the rocky, pot-holed road to the house is true. We had rented a 4 WD jeep, and we needed it. We didn’t mind the road, it was part of the ambiance of the house. It’s quite isolated with only one neighbor using that same road.
The house itself is extremely well stocked with everything you will need plus more. We never cooked but there were tons of dishes, silverware, glasses, pots and pans. Keurig, a dishwasher, too! There’s a hall closet with supplies like paper towels, toilet paper. Two cans of bear spray which we carried with us but fortunately, never used. Bug spray and sunscreen.
The shower is good with plenty of hot water. We did use the Maytag washer and dryer several times. There’s even a desk that serves as a vanity in the separate room with the washer/dryer. There are windows everywhere.
There is air conditioning and several portable fans which we did use.
My only wish was for memory foam bed pillows, but that’s a personal preference.
Tim was very responsive to any questions. We were very happy staying there.

Property was great and VERY accommodating! The gift certificate was such a nice surprise and the diner was awesome. The driveway has a very tight switchback for a crew cab/8ft bed truck. I'm sure a smaller/shorter vehicle wouldn't too bad
Overall it was wonderful and would rent again!

Great house to relax in. Kitchen is well stocked. Very clean. Lots of seating areas. If you drive a really nice vehicle. Be aware the lane is fairly narrow with tree branches. They will scrape the sides of a full size vehicle pickup Suburban ECT.

House is really nice on the inside and is being improved on the outside. The view is outstanding. Gift certificate to a local cafe that was absolutely delicious. Tim thought of everything in putting this place together.

This home was perfect for our visit to Glacier National Park. Close to hiking and biking, shops and restaurants. It was in the right spot for us to get where ever we were headed for the day. It has the amenities needed, a great view of Flathead Lake, and a lovely patio to enjoy the view. Host provided lots of information about the area and was available if needed. It is a great place to stay.

The cottage is centrally ideal for all the activities we were wanting to do. We visited Glacier National Road to the sun, Hungry Horse National Forest a true treat, rented a boat on Flathead lake and various golf courses. This is our second time choosing this cottage. It is perfect to come back from a full day of activities and sit on the back porch and view the incredible sunsets! Their beds are comfortable and the cottage has been very clean each time we have visited.

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. We found it to be larger than we thought and the deck with sweeping views of the valley and the lake were amazing!!! The beds were super comfy and having so much info on local activities and history was a benefit. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed — even coffee K cups and also a surprise of 2 great bottles of wine and gift card for the delicious Somers Bay Cafe. We did have the challenge of the road coming up but after a couple times I mastered it and we’d definitely come back. Communication with Tim was great and our family will now have awesome memories of playing games on the deck over looking the sunset on the lake. Thanks!!!

We had a great stay! Host was very informative and responsive. Lots of special touches like info for things to do in the area, wine, and a gift certificate for a local resturant. Very clean and my 13 year old daughter loved the books in the TV room! The views were even better than the pictures. We would stay here again for sure.

The property was wonderful, cozy and clean. And, Mr. Light was a gracious host! We greatly enjoyed our breakfast at the Somer’s Bay cafe! Our nightcap at Del’s Bar. The views from the deck are breathtaking. Fantastic property in a gorgeous part of our nation.

Wow, we just loved this place. Clean, cozy, feels like home away from home. Lovely view from the deck, loved all the windows. Puzzles, books, and games to play. Comfy beds, cold AC, fans in bedroom as well. Hot shower, everything works great in the kitchen. Myself, my husband, mom and my 4 year old were all very happy we chose to stay here. There’s bear spray and bug spray near the door, and we were able to do all our laundry there as well. We would absolutely stay here again if we are back in the area! Thank you to the hosts for all the thoughtful details!

The property is just as advertised. The location was perfect. We golfed in Polson, Whitefish and Buffalo Hills. We took the Road to the Sun in Glacier park two days. One day we hiked Avalanche Trial in Glacier. We went on a fishing excursion and the next day rented a boat to just enjoy the lake. The best part was being to come back to the home each evening and still close out the night to a amazing sunset views! Communication was great with Tim. He was always quick to respond. Again a great location and a wonderful experience.

Starts with the view and then some
When my husband & I first arrived, we immediately grabbed a couple beers & sat on the deck enjoying the view of the lake & mountains. Timothy was so thoughtful of providing a gift certificate to Somers Cafe & 2 bottles of wine. The property was very clean, spacious, & comfy. The bed was very comfortable. All the necessities provided & then some. Convenient location. We wanted a place that was quiet & relaxing - this fit. Even had a visit from a doe one afternoon. She came right up to the deck. These were very nice accommodations.

Relaxing and comfortable stay near Flathead Lake
My wife and I stayed in Tim's cottage for about a week during September of 2021. We found the information in the listing all accurate (the only exception being that they had evidently changed the type of coffeemaker in the home recently, so we had brought the wrong kind of coffee with us). Responsive communication from the host in advance of our stay. There were wildfires in the area much of our stay; the host provided an air purifier in the main living area to help with the smoke, and that was much appreciated. The king bed in the larger bedroom was quite comfortable (we didn't use the second bedroom). Plumbing all worked great. There were outstanding views of the lake from the windows on that side of the house and a large lake. On the other side of the house, we looked out the bedroom window one morning to see a couple deer bedded down just outside - so, this home is recommended from multiple sources!

Best VRBO experience ever
Beautiful spacious and comfortable with lovely photos and artwork. Large den with TV. Very comfortable beds. Kitchen well stocked. Gorgeous view from deck. We felt utterly at home. It was the perfect place to relax after exploring Glacier Park. Tim is an excellent host. I can’t rave enough about this property!

Cozy
We used this cozy cottage as our home base for hiking in the Flat Head area. Then drove the hour to Glacier 2 days to enjoy the park. It was an easy hour drive for us. The kitchen is small but efficient, the beds were comfortable and the view from the back deck was nice. The walk down the driveway led to a bike trail that was nice to walk along with our 3 year old. The fact we were up higher on the hill made the location seem nicer.

Great lake view
We enjoyed our time at this property, especially sitting on the deck and enjoying the lake view. There is traffic noise but the view is worth it. We loved exploring Somers on our daily walks, and everyone we met was so friendly. The driveway is definitely steep but turned into a daily workout for us.

Somers Cottage
This is a great place in a great location. Road up is a little dusty, but it's close to everything. There is a bike trail at the bottom of the hill and the lake is an easy walk. We were greeted with a gift certificate to the Somers Bay Cafe where we had breakfast every morning. Tim also gave us 2 nice bottles of wine, which was much appreciated. The outdoor space is great with sun and shade options available.

Great Views in a Peaceful Setting
Tim's property was perfect for some hiking in the area. I felt right at home and appreciated Tim's responsiveness and attention to all the extra little details, like hand written welcome notes, bear spray, wine, and the plethora of books about the local parks, restaurants, and things to do. The view from the back patio was amazing! The property was also extremely clean. I would definitely recommend Tim's place.

Will stay here again!!
We were super excited that we found this listing because of the fantastic reviews it had. Our stay was phenomenal. When Tim found out it was our son’s birthday, he left a birthday card for him to arrive to. What a thoughtful personal touch. They also provided wine and a gift certificate to a local cafe that had delicious breakfast food! The view is great! You won’t regret booking this place. It is a little bit of a drive to west Glacier, about 45 min. It’s a little over 2 hours to east glacier. There is some good hiking in Whitefish, as well , and that’s only 25 min away.
Enjoy!!

Great place to work remotely
Great location with amazing views of the lake from the deck. Property was very clean and it has all the appliances needed to work remotely for a week or 2 while visiting Glacier National Park. Internet was reliable with good speed; no issues taking zoom video calls.

Fun and cozy cabin overlooking the Flathead Lake
We had an excellent time staying at this cabin. Our hosts helped us with recommendations and info and were great to communicate with; they made this a wonderful stay. Their cabin is cozy and warm with everything we needed, although it’s unfortunate that the fireplace can’t support a real fire since the electric heater just doesn’t do justice to the rest of the experience. The cabin’s location is close enough to the highway to make it easy to explore the Flathead Valley, but it’s still quiet and secluded with a beautiful view of the lake. We even arrived to a small group of deer grazing by the front door, and had them wandering outside the windows the whole trip. If you’re renting in the winter, you might need a 4x4. The trail to the cabin from the road was always a little icy, and we ended up having to leave our rental (4x4 with summer tires) at the bottom after a snowy night.

Lake view comfy cottage
Loved everything , but the road noise and driveway....we had a beater van, but anyone with a nice car may not want to drive up and down the steep, gravelly switchbacks....
The orange cat was a happy visitor.
The whole house was wonderfully welcoming with cool collections and antiques, full kitchen,bath,everything thought of.
Thanks Tim!

Tim's Place with a Majestic view.
Tim was ready for us before we arrived. The directions were perfect and helpful as we arrived late after missing a connecting flight. The location is perfect for activities, dining, and just plain relaxing. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Nice cottage
The interior of the cottage was very clean and nicely out fitted, might be a bit dated but I really liked the place. The deck had a nice overlook of Flathead lake.
The property owners were great and even left a bottle of wine and a gift certificate for a local restaurant.
I would certainly stay here again I’di were to visit the area in the future.

Beautiful view from cottage!
We picked this property due to the beautiful view from the outside deck area. When we arrived we were not disappointed! Looks exactly like advertised. Cottage has everything that you need for an extended stay. Owners were very thoughtful and provided two bottles of wine and a gift certificate for a local historic café. Location is fairly convenient to Glacier National Park as well. If you like the convenience of basically renting a full home, then this is your place! Lots of room!

Timothy's getaway place
We had a fantastic stay at the cottage. Everything we needed and more. A super cozy king size bed was the sweet spot for night time, the super view from the deck all day long. We also loved the handy 10 mile paved bike trail at the bottom of the road too! Great for our teenage athletes to get away on their own! We will be back again someday!
This house has so many interesting things to look at. Each day, a new discovery. We loved the combination propane / briquette barbeque / smoker too!
