What Guests Are Saying
Zips Place Cabin is highly praised for its cozy atmosphere, great location, and well-stocked amenities, making it an ideal retreat after outdoor activities like hiking and skiing.

However, some noted the lack of firewood and experienced a power outage during their stay, but found the propane furnace helpful.

Very easy 1.2 mi snowshoe into the cabin. Had a great 24 hr retreat and a fun snowshoe breaking trail back into the woods behind the cabin and seeing elk, rabbit and cat tracks in snow. Very spacious and everything worked well. Kitchen well appointed with pots, pans etc. No complaints other than only having a 1 night reservation!

Such an excellent setting, deep snow, good skiing. The cabin itself was clean, well stocked and warm. Great memories are made here!

Awesome cabin&location. Cool history and respectful guests who have left extras for the next visitors. Seems to have a lot of localism visitors who do a good job leaving the place better than they found it.

Zip's Place was exactly as advertised. It is comfortable, functional, spacious enough and privately situated for days of peaceful rest or hiking.

Never seen a USFS cabin in such bad shape - no sponges, no hand soap, no paper towels, no hand towels - all of which we've had provided both at Zips and other cabins rented in the past. Previous occupants only did the minimum to clean up as posted on the cabin wall: wipe countertops and sweep/mop floors. There were dirty pans in the kitchen, the microwave was filthy, rugs hadn't been shaken so were filled with dirt and pine needles, the dining table was filthy, the outhouse wasn't swept, etc. A real checklist would help renters do a better job of preparing the cabin for the next who rent it and USFS staff should keep basic cleaning supplies stocked. Very disappointed in the experience.

Second time at Zips Cabin. Nice to finally get into East Glacier. Spring and Fall are just wonderful.
