About Ben Rover Cabin

Ben Rover Cabin is located 35 miles north of Columbia Falls, perched near the Wild and Scenic Flathead River. The rustic accommodations provide a delightful setting for photographing scenery, viewing wildlife and enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature. The cabin also provides access to a variety of activities, including hiking, fishing and boating the river. The cabin is generally accessible by vehicle, however, in winter, four-wheel drive vehicles with chains are strongly recommended. Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring several of their own amenities. The majority of the road from Columbia Falls to Ben Rover Cabin is gravel, so be prepared for dust during your drive and at the cabin.

Girls weekend to get in some nordic skiing. So great that everyone had their own room. The room by the living room had the CO dector go off, probably doesn't have enough airflow without a window open. We had the wood stove going and the occupant had her propane light on as well.
We were so impressed by the cleanliness, the quality of furniture and the new floors are beautiful. Lots of good quality wood available. The kitchen was well stocked.
Would be nice to have a better stock of cleaning supplies, especially swiffer refills. Using a string mop that never really dries is kind of gross.
We did see one mouse which we caught with a trap-not unexpected.
It was a wonderful couple days.

We had a pleasant stay at Ben Rover. Nice to be close to the river for floating. We have stayed here and at Shnaus cabin a few times and I must say Ben Rover was very dirty this time. I'm not sure where it was in the cleaning cycle...I feel other guests are not doing their part when leaving.

There were mud puddles the size of swimming pools in the road & Polebridge bakery was closed, but we loved our time at Ben Rover. We have driven past many times & finally got to stay. What a cute & cozy cabin. Plenty of firewood was provided for the wood stove, the furniture was comfy, & the cabin was clean. We sat on the bench outside & listened to the river, we went snow showing several times, & we did a puzzle.

Great cabin near Polebridge with access to GNP. Only negative was a very icy parking area to the cabin and the bathroom. Otherwise, cabin was in great shape.

Love the cabin.. everything was good. Wish we had some sand in the parking lot and the path to the outhouse… really dangerous.. maybe just leave a few bags of sand in the wood shed..
The weather was horrid.. rained the whole time but that’s not your fault!!
