Coed Week
The Week
Mornings start with coffee and a plan. Two days we hike Glacier country: ridgelines, alpine meadows, and lakes cold enough to make you yell. Midweek, Michael leads the sweat lodge, and that night we feast.
The other two days are yours. Sleep in and recover, hike again, fly fish with a local guide, float the river, or wander Whitefish for lunch. Most free days start with breakfast at the famous Montana Coffee Traders. We’ll drive you there and back.
Fire and Food
We feast out here. Every meal is cooked by our in-house chef: rustic, generous, and built to refuel you after a long day on the trail.

FAQ’S
-
Fly into Glacier Park International Airport (FCA) in Kalispell. We’ll pick you up on Sunday, handle all transport during the week, and drop you back at the airport on Saturday.
-
Yes. Plenty of guests come a day or two ahead to explore. You’ll just need your own lodging until Sunday.
-
Hikes range from about 3 to 14 miles, on average, and we pick routes based on the group. You don’t need to be an athlete, but you should be comfortable on your feet for most of a day. Free days are as active or as lazy as you want.
-
Every guest gets a private room. Couples share theirs.
-
Absolutely. Plenty of guests come solo, on both weeks.
-
Whatever sounds good. Past guests have stayed in to rest, hiked again, gone fly fishing with a local guide, rafted or floated the river, spent the day in Whitefish, and booked massages with a local therapist. Helicopter tours, mountain biking, and horseback riding are also nearby. Free-day activities and meals are on you; we handle the rides.
-
Michael leads a traditional sweat lodge on Wednesday. It’s a light day of eating beforehand, then we feast. Participation is always your choice, and if you have a heart condition, are pregnant, or have concerns about heat, talk to us before the trip.
-
Yes. Let us know when you book and our chef will plan around it.
-
Expect warm days and cool nights, and mountain weather that can change fast. Bring layers, a rain jacket, broken-in hiking boots, a daypack, a refillable water bottle, sun protection, and a swimsuit for the lakes and the sweat lodge. We’ll send a full packing list after you book.
-
A $1,000 deposit holds your spot. The balance is due 90 days before your trip. Cancel 90+ days out and you lose only the deposit; 60–89 days out, 50% of the trip price; under 60 days, no refund, though you’re welcome to transfer your spot to someone else. We strongly recommend travel insurance.
