Why East Glacier Park, Montana?
Built in 1913, Glacier Park Lodge is a legendary timber-framed hotel with 40-foot Douglas fir columns in its Great Hall – guests call it a cathedral of the wilderness. Just minutes away is Glacier National Park, home to the world-famous Going-to-the-Sun Road, Two Medicine Lake, grizzly bears, mountain goats and over a million acres of untouched wilderness.
On your days off you can hike alpine passes, kayak crystal-clear lakes, spot wildlife, photograph waterfalls, or simply sit on the lodge porch and watch the sun set behind the peaks. Employee culture here is legendary – think staff hikes, bonfires, movie nights and a community of young people from all over the globe.
