I really enjoyed our four-day stay at Lake McDonald Lodge on the west side of the park. I loved hearing about the history - built in 1913 as a hunting lodge it has amazing log architecture.

It's in a great location on the lake with all kinds of activities to do, from Red Jammer Bus Tours on the Going-to-the-Sun road, horseback riding, hiking, or taking a tour of Lake McDonald on the DeSmet - one of the park's historic boats.

There's a rushing stream next to the lodge; when we were there in late June, the fishing where the creek meets the lake was good. Apgar Village is nearby with a lot of visitor services like rowboats and kayaks.

Here is a video overview of Lake McDonald Lodge that we filmed along with our neighbors during our stay.

Glad you enjoyed Lake McDonald Lodge so much, Jerrie!

It's definitely one of the most peaceful hotels in Glacier National Park.

Thanks for another amazing video!
