A love of nature is ingrained in every born-and-raised Montanan. And to most of us, camping means finding a secluded area and pitching a tent or parking an RV. However, certain occasions in life call for a more elevated experience. Some might find the idea of “glamping” a bit strange, but there’s actually nothing better than sleeping in luxury while still being surrounded by nature.

The Bar W Guest Ranch is located on the outskirts of Whitefish near Glacier National Park.
