Glacier Cyclery

Reviewed By Graphite625 - Madison, United States

We visit Whitefish periodically, and our Daughter (who lives in Whitefish) has used Glacier Cyclery for minor maintenance on their bikes. During a recent visit, a found a particular bike I have been looking for on the local Craigslist site. This shop handled the boxing it for me, and explained how I could use Bikeflights.com to have it shipped home quite reasonably. When the bike arrived, the local shop I had reassemble it commented on how well it was packed. It’s now assembled, and I’m enjoying it back home. Nice job Glacier Cyclery!

Whitefish Mountain Resort

Whitefish Mountain Resort, in northwest Montana, is noted for its laid-back vibe, world-class skiing, and unbeatable value. The resort sees an average of 300 inches of snow on its 3,000 acres, and is as well known for a pleasant lack of lift lines as for its consistently good snow conditions. When the snow melts, Whitefish Mountain Resort becomes home to thrilling Zip Line Tours and an Aerial Adventure Park along with world-class downhill and cross-country mountain biking. Located next to the Base Lodge patio are fun activities for younger kids like Spider Monkey Mountain, the Strider Bike Park, and Summer Tubing. New for 2019, the Alpine Slide has a new and improved route and a second slide is being constructed! You can't beat the views from the Scenic Lift Ride to the Summit House Montana's only mountaintop restaurant.

Whitefish Lake Golf Club

A challenging course with sensational lake views.

Reviewed By wgutterman - New York City, United States

Beautiful well-kept course. I started the South course at 6 PM and was able to play 18 holes in less than 3 hours. Pristine fairways and greens, great views and beautiful sunset finish. Cant wait to come back. Reasonably priced and solid pro shop.
