Perfect Place
We loved this house and it was perfect for our stay. The house is very clean and comfortable and has everything. We felt right at home. The location is great, in a nice neighborhood and a short drive to the Glacier National Park entrance. It is within walking distance of a couple restaurants. The hosts are extremely helpful, responsive, and provided information on the house and area. We will definitely stay here again.

Great stay!
We really enjoyed our stay & wish we had scheduled more down time at the house. Plenty of space for all 6 of us, house was well-stocked and clean, with books, games, places to store clothes, comfortable beds. Loved having the outdoor picnic table and chairs. Easy drive to Glacier NP, Whitefish, and nearby airport. The owner provided tons of information about local restaurants and notes about visiting the national park and was very responsive. Would definitely return.

Gateway to Glacier!
We were super pleased with everything about the Avocado Abode! We rented the place to visit both Glacier National Park and Whitefish and it was the perfect location. Just minutes from the West Entrance of the park and a short, easy drive into Whitefish. We rode touring bikes to explore the park, and we absolutely loved the big 2 car garage! The home was very nicely stocked with kitchen items and pretty much everything you'd need to cook with. The couch and beds and linens were nice and comfy and the driveway and property was super accommodating for the vehicles. Location was super awesome to a couple great restaurants (Backslope was amazing and the breakfast at Columbia Bar on Sunday was inexpensive but really superb). Communication with the owners was top notch. I really can't think of a single bad thing to share, it was truly a great place. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Great stay!
The Avocado house was the perfect property for us! We came to enjoy the National Park and this was the perfect home base. We had 8 people, a baby and a very small dog. There were plenty of beds for all. The young adults loved the downstairs space. It was super clean and remodeled exactly as specified in the listing. We used the bikes, the fire pit for snores and had an enough space to just chill. The master bedroom and bath were amazing.The hosts were very quick to respond to all our needs. Hope to return soon!

Loved our stay at Avocado Adobe
We loved our stay at the Avocado Adobe and our three kids (12, 10, and 8) loved the theme - especially the light-up avocado in their "Avocado Cave." This house was a great layout for our family of five and, candidly, wish we would have stayed longer. It is a great location to visit Whitefish as well as Glacier National Park. It is close to groceries, restaurants, etc. and is a great home base. The kitchen was very functional with plenty of space and a nice dining room table. The bedrooms were all nice sizes with comfortable beds and ample closet space. The laundry facility was a huge plus given all of our hikes and outdoor adventures and has plenty of rooms with newer appliances. Overall, the hosts were very communicative and you definitely feel like they share your excitement for your trip. We stayed at five houses on our three week journey and this one was the best in terms of making us feel welcome.

Perfect homebase for 2 families!
Avocado Abode was a fantastic landing pad for our two families (4 adults, 4 kids). Everything was perfectly arranged, clean, and exactly as listed. Communication from Darren and Leslie was fantastic and responsive, they anticipated all of our needs. We greatly enjoyed the lovely backyard and yard toys, and the basement bunk room was perfect for our kids. They were smitten with the avocados! Highly recommend!

A true 5 star stay in Montana!
āœ… Very clean and comfortable house (I am convinced that there was not a speck of dust in this house! Kept cool at night and felt safe in the neighborhood.) āœ… Great location (for traveling to Kalispell, Whitefish, Glacier National Park, etc. Also about 3 minutes away from the Super 1 grocery store, open 24 hours.) āœ… Excellent communication with host (Darren and Leslie sent several messages prior to our stay that were very helpful and detailed.) My husband and I stayed at the Avocado Abode last week- June 10-14th. We have been looking forward to coming back to Montana for the past three years and I am so glad that we booked this house! It was the most welcoming and clean vrbo house that my husband and I have stayed in. The kitchen had all of the necessities for cooking and there was plenty of counter space. The blackout curtains and comfortable beds guaranteed good sleep every night. The AC unit kept the living room and bedroom comfortable all throughout the day and night, and downstairs stayed cold! Located in a nice, quiet neighborhood and In an excellent location to travel to Kalispell, Whitefish, and Glacier National Park. The effort put into this house was clearly noticeable and every room. My husband and I canā€™t wait to visit Montana again. When we do, we are specifically going to search for this house to hopefully stay here again. We are so glad we found the Avocado Abode! šŸ„‘

Amazing stay at Avocado Abode
I can not say enough good things about this property!! This property was immaculate (Iā€™m super picky too) and even had ā€œvacuum linesā€ as we entered! We were a mixed aged family group 65(2), 40(2), 20,13,9,6,2 and there was a space for everyone! We really appreciated the amazing lower level space with bunk beds, 2 twin beds and a sleeper sofa! This house really thought of the small things that make a property 5 stars! - the towels were extra large and plush and there were so many that everyone could use as many as they wanted - beach towels were provided for any excursion and were very helpful when our 6 yo would get in any water we passed - better than average shower heads were nice and powerful - supplied nice shampoo, conditioner and Dove body wash -large soaking tub -spices being present were helpful -baby gate was such a nice touch -ample laundry detergent, dryer sheets and even stain spray -black towels for face washing -lots of games to play and borrow after a day of hiking - lots of books for relaxing and KID books for a bedtime story Communication was amazing! - answered any question I had and gave great hike and food recommendations - responded quickly to any question - let us know how to check in and it worked great for us House was about 20/25 min to west glacier entrance which was super nice There was so much to do in the area will definitely stay here when we come back to Glacier! What a gem to find!!
