About Schnaus Cabin

Schnaus Cabin is located near the Wild and Scenic North Fork of the Flathead River, in the Flathead National Forest. It can host up to 12 guests for a scenic, peaceful mountain vacation. The rustic dwelling provides a superb setting for fishing, hiking, bird watching and much more in the Whitefish Mountains. The fully accessible cabin can be reached via vehicle and a parking area is located outside the cabin. 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 Schnaus Cabin is gravel, so be prepared for dust during your drive and at the cabin.

What Guests Are Saying

Schnaus Cabin offers a clean and quiet retreat in a beautiful forest setting, perfect for relaxation and outdoor activities like hiking and river floating. Guests appreciate the upgraded amenities, comfortable furnishings, and well-maintained environment. However, there are a few maintenance issues, such as propane concerns and a roof leak, along with the need to bring firewood after April, which some guests found inconvenient.

We loved Schnaus Cabin so much! The view is spectacular and the cabin was warm a cozy and very roomy. We brought everything for cooking meals but the cabin was fully stocked with utensils and cookware. The woods surrounding the cabin were just magical. It was a great weekend getaway for us.

Rented this in Mar. Lots of snow around which was good because we were there to do cross country skiing in Polebridge area. The views from the cabin were absolutely amazing. It also had just about everything you'd need for cooking. They also provided trashbags and trashcan. You just have to pack it all out when you leave.

We'd definitely rent again. Great experience.

My family has rented this cabin and others for many years. I would sat starting in the 80's. Several of us were Glacier Park employees. We enjoy the solitude, beauty and family time. Games, cooking, campfires, hiking and so much more. Thank you for getting a new stove and oven at Schnaus. The Wertz cabin stove is awesome. However, the oven didn't work. Ford cabin was not as clean as it should be. But, we enjoy all. Thank you!
