Snowmobile To Our Remote Backcountry Lodge for A Unique Winter Vacation

Are you looking for some place a bit different to spend your winter vacation? Do you like adventure but want to keep the creature comforts? Are you up to a unique winter lodging experience?

Snowmobiles are the only form of winter transportation - to and from our south western Montana Lodge. Snowmobile in for a winter lodging adventure. Get away from West Yellowstone, Montana's crowds and Island Park, Idaho's busy trails and experience a winter snowmobile adventure in the 'real' Montana.

Winter at our Western Montana Resort is an adventure! Located a few miles off an extensive groomed trail system - 500 miles around Island Park, Idaho and 400 miles around West Yellowstone, Montana - our snowmobilers enjoy thousands of acres of untouched powder. There is no doubt Elk Lake Resort sits in the middle of a unique winter wonderland. But, don't just take our word for it. In the fall of 2006, SnoWest Magazine did a three-part 'in-depth' article on the Island Park area. Elk Lake Resort - and the countryside out our back door - was deemed worthy of mention in two of the three articles. The second article talks about Elk Lake Resort while later articles talk about the surrounding countryside.

Our Western Montana Lodge offers wide-open adventure. Snowmobile across gently rolling hills and wide open canyons or scream up the face of a mountain. Elk Lake Resort offers snowmobiling adventures suitable for any ability level and preference - and just minutes from your cabin door.

Revel a clear winter night sky without a drop of light diffusion. Listen to a depth of quiet you've only imagined. Dine on great food. Lounge beside a warm fire. Relax! Rejuvenite! Revive! Get away from the crowds and back to nature. Experience winter the way it ought to be!

Elk Lake Resort's guests aren't shy, timid, or fearful of heart. Our Western Montana Lodge sits in the middle of nowhere, yet just 45 minutes from Island Park, Idaho, and 90 minutes from West Yellowstone, Montana. The perfect location for the adventure seeker. If your idea of adventure is to come face-to-face with nature - our western Montana Lodge's is just your ticket.
