I mean, the guy named Marc at the front desk was amazing, and breakfast was phenomenal. But one female front desk person wasn't intending to help, like when we asked how to go to Glacier or Flathead. She was trying to avoid us, so yeah, overall, it was good.

It is in a woods setting, beautiful scenery, and a lodge feeling inside. It is a little far from the main part of town. We are a more mature couple so carrying our things upstairs was a little challenging. Overall a pleasant experience.

Off the beaten path in summer. Maybe nice as a ski lodge but in summer it just feels worn out. Hallway carpets are a mess, rooms are musty. You can hear neighbors on either side easily. Needs some strong updating and deep cleaning.

We had an incredible stay at Kandahar Lodge and can’t recommend it enough! From the moment we arrived, the staff was friendly and welcoming, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere throughout our visit. The location is perfect—just a short walk to the base of the mountain where we enjoyed hiking, biking, and the scenic chairlift to the top with stunning views of Whitefish and the lake. The mountain also offers a free shuttle to town, which made getting around super convenient. The highlight of our stay was without a doubt Buchanan’s Chophouse. We ended up dining there daily—the food was consistently excellent, the outdoor patio was perfect, and the service was top-notch. Huge thanks to James, the owner, who personally made us feel at home, and TJ, the bartender, who served up amazing drinks and great conversation. This lodge offers the perfect balance of adventure, comfort, and hospitality. We’re already looking forward to coming back this winter to ski and wouldn’t stay anywhere else! Thanks again for everything!
