About this property

Star Lodge Tipi's at Stepping Stone

Facing the Swan Mountains on 20 beautiful rolling acres are three tipi's available for overnight stays for those looking for a more "down to earth experience". Enjoy the night skies and experience the wonder of being/sleeping in an ancient conical structure. This tipi has a Queen size bed and is the most private, but of course a little further from the facilities. Restroom is in Glass blowing studio. New this summer a solar powered outdoor shower!
Stop by Proctor Studios To see the latest works in glass & metal.

Once turning off of Hwy 35 at the Saint John Paul Catholic Church, it is the 3rd Driveway on your left, immediately after the Rising Mountain assisted Living. It is 0.2 of a mile from hwy 35.Siri & goggle maps takes you to far down Coverdell Rd.
*** If you are squeamish about insects....expect a Hotel style restroom.., or experiencing varied weather conditions this destination is probably NOT for you!!

We had a fantastic stay. The tipi was relaxing and cozy, and the setting is beautiful. They’re surprisingly roomy and we had more than enough room to move around and store our stuff. The host Lee was very responsive and accommodating. We can’t recommend this stay enough.

We love staying here! The teepee's are very nice, the area is absolutely beautiful. It is peaceful and calm. Just a very pleasant experience, and you can't beet the price. We have stayed here twice now in 3 years and will definitely stay again.

We were supposed to stay 4 nights and left after the first. Weeds to your knees to tipi and shower-no water and weeds in there were to your waistline. When we first got there Lee hassled us about our equipment we were bringing in -camp stove and lots of gear since we were traveling for 14 days. Said we should of asked about cooking options before hand. No cooking or coffee making allowed. The grasshoppers were a super nuisance. We left the next morning, Lee never contacted us again since the first night stay at arrival.

Beautiful property. Exactly what we were looking for.
We wanted a different experience than checking into a hotel room box. This was it!

I loved my night here. My only regret is not staying longer. This is a great location for many outdoor activities and towns. Lee was an awesome host. I’d like to come back!

Loved the Tipi!
We loved to be able to experience living in a Tipi, waking up in the morning was very calm and relaxing hearing the birds chirp in the morning. Provided everything that we needed. The shower is solar powered, so don’t take a shower in the morning like I did haha.

Husband initially booked two nights in one of the teepees, but that was a bit too rustic for me. When we explained the situation to Lee, he immediately had us stay in his guest room, which was a lovely accommodation. The following night he had us move to the guest house, which was even more lovely and contained everything we needed to be super comfortable. Lee was nice enough to give us a tour of his studio and workshop and showed us the incredible project he’s currently working on. Overall, it was a lovely experience and we’ll definitely be back with our children for a second visit to Glacier National Park. Couldn’t end this review without mentioning his cute cat who greeted us warmly as soon as we arrived.
