About Double Arrow Lookout

The Double Arrow Lookout offers guests a chance to see the Seeley valley and the adjacent Swan Mountains from a different and unique vantage point, high above the hillside. The tower contains a few modern amenities, including electricity, but allows guests to personalize their visits with their own supplies. A variety of recreational opportunities exist in the surrounding mountains, but the view is usually what attracts people to the tower.

What Guests Are Saying

Double Arrow Lookout offers stunning views, clean facilities, and amenities like a fridge and stove, making it a comfortable stay. Guests enjoyed the beautiful sunrises, sunsets, and wildlife, with plenty of trails nearby. However, the lookout can be crowded, and access requires a high-clearance vehicle; some guests found the cots uncomfortable.

Perfect location. Out of the way but not too far! It was clean, the kids had a ton of fun playing on the rocks and going down to the lake during the day. Definitely the best trip of our summer.
