Day 8 Glacier - Mountain Pine Motel

Welcome to Mountain Pine Motel in East Glacier, Montana. This is a wonderful place to stay. With day time high of 90 one might think hot, but the night time temps of upper forties to low fiftys will really cool your heels. Pile the covers on and wait for Jennifer to walk the block for warm coffee at the Whistle Stop. What could be better? Not for the really early riser because the coffee is only available after 7 AM. By the way everyone drives a Subaru up here so we are mainstreams in the car department.
If you arrive on the Amtrack train just a few blocks south of here the friendly staff of MP will pick you up in their bus. Load the luggage and off you go to your home near the mountains at Mountain Pine. The rates are wonderful and the service superb.
Here are the owners, Doris and Terry Sherburne, who will do anything to make your stay terrific. They open in May and give up for winter sometime in the fall. Make your reservations early as they tend to hang out the "no vacancy sign" quite often.
