Charming Lakefront Cabin in the Heart of Glacier National Park

Price: $13,000,000

Location: 361 Grist Road, West Glacier, MT

Lakefront properties in Glacier National Park are exceedingly rare and highly coveted. 361 Grist Road is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, offering a home on Lake McDonald in one of the most scenic locations in the U.S. Recently listed, this residence stands out as one of Montana’s most desirable properties.

Situated on over 1.55 acres, this property comprises three parcels, two of which boast over 103 feet of Lake McDonald shorefront. The cozy main cabin was designed to maximize the breathtaking lake and mountain views, with two bedrooms and one bathroom. 

The cabin exudes a rustic charm, making it an ideal family retreat. The wood walls and ceilings evoke a timeless cabin vibe, perfectly complementing the earthy surroundings. A particularly striking feature is the glass wall with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame panoramic views of the lake and towering peaks. 

Through the glass wall doors, you’ll find a spacious deck perfect for hosting and dinner with a view. Inside, the home features a quaint kitchen, a fireplace, and a cozy primary bedroom, each adding to the overall charm. 

The property’s serene setting is fostered by cedar trees and the picturesque lake on the property, along with a fire pit and additional outdoor spaces that invite relaxation. 

What sets this property apart for some buyers is the absence of covenants or zoning restrictions. While the existing cabin has undeniable appeal, a new buyer would have the freedom to create their own paradise in this unique location. Also, with fewer than 50 privately held properties on the shores of Lake MacDonald, most of which have remained within the same families for generations, any opportunity to purchase here is exceptional.

Glacier National Park is one of the country’s most celebrated national destinations, renowned for its stunning landscapes, including turquoise lakes, snow-capped mountains, and abundant wildlife, from bears and moose to lynx and wolverines. Living here presents unparalleled access to outdoor activities such as golf, skiing, hiking, whitewater rafting, fishing, and boating, providing year-round enjoyment.
