Mountain Pine Motel

The flowers are thriving this summer! It’s such a joy to care for them, and to see people enjoying them when they return from a day in the park! 🌼 (More flower photos in the comments)

While the flowers bring joy, the smoke most definitely does not. 😷 As is typical with east side weather, it’s pretty on and off here, very smoky at times, and almost totally clear at others. Be sure to check the DEQ website before you make any decisions about if and when to visit. We have been getting plenty of breaks from the smoke, and this week looks promising, with a low pressure system and rain on the horizon. Check out https://deq.mt.gov/News/smokeforecasts-folder/smoke-forecast-08-10-2026 and fire.airnow.gov for more info on the smoke forecast!

We hope to visit with you soon!

We are pretty confident that you will have as much fun playing in the mountains on your next visit as our dogs having are in these photos!😉

It’s been a great start to the 2026 season — it’s already been a blast seeing old friends, and we can’t wait to see and meet more of you this summer!

The Mountain Pine property and the town of East Glacier lost a lot of trees this week after the area was hit with days of up to 100 mph gusts of wind paired with wet, soggy ground. Thankfully the structural damage to buildings is minimal, but as tree lovers, we are feeling pretty sad about losing some of these giants. We will have it cleaned up before the beginning of the 2026 season — but there is a lot of work ahead until then!

It’s the peak of flower season here at the Mountain Pine! 🌻

🎉 We’re back! The Mountain Pine is officially open for the season (okay, we’ve been open for a while now…but we’re finally posting about it 😄).

Even better—Going-to-the-Sun Road opens Monday!

I think we could all use some time surrounded by beauty, fresh air, and wild places. There’s no place like Glacier to reset the soul.

Make sure to get your vehicle reservation at recreation.gov before heading up. We can’t wait to see your happy faces this summer!

Only one more week is left of our 2024 season! It was another amazing year thanks to all of our awesome guests and excellent employees. Come see us and the beautiful fall colors on the east side before we close! Otherwise, we can’t wait to see you next year✌️

It’s almost September and it’s hard to believe these flowers won’t be around much longer! Come see us (and the colors) before the season ends 🤩

We opened for the season 10 days ago (we’ve been so busy we forgot to post!). We have already been enjoying seeing many of you visiting the beautiful east side! Two Medicine is open and Going-to-the-Sun is getting closer to opening every day. We are so excited for the 2024 season and can’t wait to see more of your faces soon!
