Hi there! We are a lodging facility based in the Glacier National Park area of NorthWest Montana, USA.  Growing rapidly even in the current economic climate our area is hugely popular with tourists but has yet to be marketed as a four season destination.  Yes, that means winter sports minus the high prices and crowded slopes and with guaranteed snow!! We are actively seeking international tour operators/travel agents to work with us and other local businesses to help spread the word.  Contact us at marketing@historictamaracklodge.com for further info and discounted rates.  Fam trips welcomed and media articles encouraged!
