Wonderful but no refrigerator
Place was great, clean, and comfortable. Grandkids loved swimming in the lake and the sunsets on the lake were beautiful. But a little disappointing when for $200 a night, there was no mini fridge or ice.

Idyllic cabin by the lake.
Having booked this location sight unseen, we were extremely happy with Big Arm Resort. The cabin was virtually brand new and was very well appointed. The only downside, and this is nitpicking, was that there was no toaster in the kitchenette. Overall we were very pleased with this accomodation.

Good gettaway
Sweet clean place. No breakfast at restaurant, no staff after hours to control rowdy partiers.

Our cabin was adorable. Our kids loved swimming and skipping rocks. It is newly renovated and in great shape. Our family of six was comfortable in our cabin with a full fridge and kitchen. We visited Glacier and didn't mind the drive because Big Arm was beautiful and not crowded despite being full.
My only critique is that the bedroom was warm because the AC unit was in the front of the cabin.

There were missing towels and hairdryer when we checked in, shower curtain was not clean, and the bathroom sink drain was really slow so we had to flush it the toilet; but staff were nice.

The resort itself was amazing. The cabins were comfortable and relaxing. My only issue was a staff member’s kid and neighbor kids picking on my daughters and saying they were to white cussing at them. Then returning the next day and doing it again. The office staff was great and took care of the situation but it made dining and enjoying the rest of my stay very uncomfortable as well as stressful. I also wish the restaurant and casino were open more often. While dining the pizza and Indian taco was very filling and delicious. Overall I will probably book this again.

Just arrived late afternoon in a moody rainstorm so I haven't ventured out yet. Beautiful views even on a rainy day. Will review more later

Not a Great Experience
Arrived and room was not clean, beds were a mess and wet towels on floor. Was told it would be done asap. Went to see family. Called before returning, was told housekeeping went home and room not done. Then told moved to a different cabin. Went into new cabin, smell of pinesol was overpowering, had to open up doors and windows and turn on fan.Went to dinner with family and was still very strong smell of pinesol.

Great get away.
We had a fantastic time! The staff was so friendly and professional. The site is beautiful and close to so many activities. The kids were planning the next trip out before the first day was over.

Everything was great there. The only thing you need to know about the place is, if you show up after hours, you had to call the casino in town 406 883 3636 and get the code for the door

Everything about this stay was perfect, the cabins were adorable and well maintained. The bar and grill was closed when we were there but no big deal. You have views of the lake and mountains, felt like a steal for the price! If we’re ever back in the area we would most definitely stay again!

The area was beautiful and we so enjoyed our stay. The only issues would be no fridge in the room and the fact that the neighbours took the extra seating from out front of our cabin.

It was end of season for them. They were short staffed. It was nice and quiet resort and we had excellent view of the lake from our cabin. The food in the restaurant was good and yes we would go back there again.

Great little cabins and beautiful property! Would have been nice to have a mini fridge and a microwave, but that’s the only thing missing! Also front desk staff to help would also be a benefit. Their office is only open a few days a week.

Rooms could have been cleaned better. Buggers on the wall next to the bed, marks and hair on bed sheets, some stains on walls, and bathroom showed use from past guest.

Lovely view from the water front cabins. Cabin was quite nice, too. Only reason it wasn’t a perfect rating was the bathroom could’ve been cleaner and the shampoo/mouthwash bottles weren’t sealed/partially filled. Might have been an anomaly due to short staffing. Fairly minor and I would gladly stay again.
