Lost Paddle and Pole

my fiancé and i absolutely adored this stay! from the spacious area to the accommodations, it was truthfully a blast! the yurt was well equipped with fans that recharge and an electric fireplace that kept us warm all night! Definitely lots of mosquitoes though, would bring a zapper or bug spray next time!

I had a great experience on Don’s land! I felt safe as a solo female camper, everything was incredibly clean and tidy, and it was very pleasant and quiet at night. I would recommend this site!

I loved how near the campsite was. 30min to Glacier NP, 5min to Columbia Falls and just a few minutes from a 24hour Supermarket. The campsite is very welcoming and well laid out. It was a great place to base myself for a few nights.

I showed up in semi off season for a tent site! They were so kind and offered the yurt as it was unoccupied and forecast of rain. There is very clean toilet and I slept so well! The hospitality was very kind and appreciated.

We had an awesome stay in the yurt! The owner was very accommodating and was able to give us some great recommendations for off-season hikes in Glacier. We also loved that we were able to bring our dog!

We stayed in the yurt and it was perfect. They have a double sized mattress and a cot. It was ideal for our family of three. The electric fireplace kept it toasty. The outdoor fire pit was also a great experience.

The yurt was really cute and the hosts were so nice. They set up a fire in an outdoor stove for us, which was lovely to come back to after a long day. We were also pleasantly surprised to have a power source for lights and heat (and to charge our devices). My kids and I loved it.

This yurt was awesome. Perfect for a quick stay. The heater came in handy as the nights are getting cooler now. The yard is well kept and in a great location just off the highway. Also appreciated the bonfire Don had made us before we arrived!

Two nice sites. Booked one on a last minute plan. Semi private sites and clean area. Don is very nice. Traffic from the highway is a little noisy but for the price and location it's worth it.

Clean, well furnished and comfortable, and not far from town or restaurants. Right off the highway, so some road noise on arrival, but it quieted down once it got dark.

It was a little hard to find because my maps were taking me to the first houses on the street. It is a little farther back on the left side of the street. Everything was perfect and such a cute little yurt! My dog and I enjoyed our stay. Thank you Don!

Straightforward, easy stay. Some highway noise so would recommend ear plugs if you need total quiet. Easy parking and clean porta potties. Extension cord available to plug in your phone at night. Nice hosts, had good recommendation for dinner.

Don’s place was very quiet and easy find. I never met the hosts, but directions were good and no problems with site. Nice and close to the Amtrak station and downtown Whitefish. I would stay here again. * * * * *

Fantastic place to stay just out of town. Yurt was a little gem, very comfortable, light and bright. Don was a great host, prepared to offer local advice, and looked after the facilities well. Thanks for a wonderful stay and a break from our little tent.

The area was quiet and safe and convenient. Don went way above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed. He even helped me solve an important logistical dilemma that made my entire vacation the best it could possibly be. Thanks!!

Would absolutely stay again!

It was a little hard to find the property in the dark, so definitely show up during daylight. It was an incredibly cute place to sleep, with a beautiful property. Would absolutely stay here again.

Lovely campsite, close to both whitefish, Columbia falls and kalispell. Don and his family were very accommodating and gave us loads of tips on what to do and where to go. Everything was well organised and good!

Another fantastic stay at Lost Paddle and Pole! The location was ideal for the concert we took in across the street at Scout & Gather. Tidy, quiet site, exceptionally clean porta potty’s, helpful host. Will definitely be coming back!

Very convenient to Whitefish, well-maintained and clean. Nice picnic tables and I liked that you had a light in the outhouse. Traffic noise calmed down at night and I slept well. Just what I needed! Thank you!
