Hungry Horse Resevoir

Reviewed By Andie N - Coulee Dam, Washington

We enjoyed visiting the Hungry Horse Dam, but would have liked it better on a blue sky day. The wildfires in the area were extensive and there was a TON of smoke that settled at the dam, so it wasn't very pretty, but it was still cool. You can walk across the entire dam, and there are camping areas as you head south from the dam where you can spend time at the lake and various small rivers that flow into it. Be on the lookout for bear, deer, and other animals during fire season as they come down to safer places. We were along a river, and something began watching us from the bushes after breaking some large branches.

We went both here and Huckleberry Patch, and willows huckleberry land was definitely cheaper. We wished we had gone here first. They have an excellent selection of huckleberry products, gifts, and tshirt so. You can try samples which helps you decide exactly what to buy. They have a small restaurant and candy isle. Definitely go here over the other huckleberry stores.

We took our two kids (ages 9 and 5). The 9-year-old loved the entire experience, but the 5-year-old made it about 20 feet on the ropes course before completely freaking out (after less than 5 minutes in the harness).

When we returned to the front office and I asked for a refund for the 5-year-old, I was told they don't give refunds after the harness is put on, and that it is up to the parents to know if their child will be able to handle it or not. I was never informed of this "policy," either by sign, the waiver we signed, or verbally prior to them taking my money. The first I heard of this "policy" was after getting stiffed $90 for five minutes. When I expressed my displeasure, the male owner muttered "full refund?" under his breath, laughed at me, and told me that it's up to parents "to know their kids." I couldn't believe it.

They should either 1) have a partial refund policy for situations like this (heck, even 10% back I would have lived with on principle alone; I get that this could be abused but come on - a five year old and five minutes after you paid for two hours?), or 2) simply inform customers of their non-refund policy up front. I was completely blindsided by this and completely repulsed by their lack of compassion and willingness to make an exception to the policy. Add to that the insult of the male owner laughing at me and implying that I don't know my daughter well enough, and I was beside myself.

(For the record, my daughter was all gung-ho at the beginning: after she had the harness on, after the safety briefing, and once she clipped in....but literally as soon as she stepped on the rope, she started having major anxiety. There was no way of me knowing that was going to happen.)

In all fairness, the employees on the rope course themselves were OUTSTANDING, including two of them who helped get my daughter safely back to base in a compassionate and caring way. I was impressed by the politeness, humility, and competence of all of the employees on the rope course itself. The two front office staff members (an older woman and older man) would do well to take a class in customer service from their own front-line employees. I will always be left with the sense that the owners are money-hungry vultures who could care less about a child and their experience.

This 18-hole championship golf course, par 71 at 6,574 yards, is both a real challenge and delight to play.

Reviewed By Pinktika - Bonnyville, Canada

we visited this place for the for the first time this summer and we weren't disappointed. Beautiful and private area. Our condo had a view of the golf course and mountains and it was beautiful. Their public pool was perfect for the kids as well as the mini splash park. The whole family enjoyed it. Everything was a nice walk away. There is even a park for the kids not to mention there is a lot of fun things to do in Columbia falls. Well definitely visit again!

Hungry Horse is a little small town near Glacier National Park that offers basics for travelers in terms of groceries) but, especially, it has some neat souvenir stores and antique shops that are worth to stop by. It is certainly small but a perfect stop after a day in Glacier.

Big Sky Water Park

Reviewed By Turtlegirl99645 - Hayden, Idaho

This was my second year in a row taking my family here during Labor Day weekend. We love that our toddler can ride on our laps down some of there slides. Very nice that they allow you to bring your own food and drinks. Several shaded picnic areas makes it very nice for when you want to eat and relax. Their huge hot tub was perfect for when we got a little chilly too. Very friendly staff and clean facility, way better than Silverwood theme park on so many levels in my opinion. Can't wait until next year!!

Local relatives took us to this bar and we had a fun evening. A pretty clean-cut, comfortable place with great live music. Wide age range of customers - from 20 somethings to boomers - our teenagers enjoyed hanging out and listening to the music, too. Front bar has a sports TV and pool table and back room had another bar with the live band. Reasonable prices for beer and friendly service. No food, so eat before you go.
