Customer Reviews
Not as advertised. Chose this inn for proximity to train station and breakfast. After several slowly-answered email requests, we were told breakfast was only available after 8 a.m. They wouldn’t even leave something we could take with us. Never saw staff except the cafe worker who said very professionally, “I got no idea; I’m just the bagel guy.” No warm chocolate chip cookies as promised in the room descriptions. Rooms were clean. Very small. Allowed us in early which was appreciated.
Very poor experience. While the location is close to everything, its also close to the train tracks so I awakened throughout the night EVEN with a white noise machine. The mattress compresses down to a pack of cards and the bed is VERY short. The room is right out a NYC hotel room as in tiny...there is no way it could accommodate more than one person. There is not comfortable place to sit. The owners were unresponsive to questions and they did not event serve breakfast. After booking they mentioned I had to eat elsewhere. The wifi directions were incorrect. The walls are thin, I could hear the couple across the hall. And finally the only parking spaces are under a tree that drops sap on your vehicle. Wonderful!
The owners are deliberately marketing this property as a full Bed AND Breakfast experience, "luxury guest suites and a farm to table style Café and organic Bakery", and "hospitality that will make you will feel warmly welcomed", but it is a BASIC AirBnB experience without the implied and expressly marketed experience of a hosted site with integrated stay and dining experience that was marketed to us and we paid for. The photos they posted on Google and the content of their website market incredible food, a dining experience integrated into your stay, and a restaurant that no longer exists. Instead, you check yourself in and out like any AirBnB, just in cramped rooms with poor a/c, and you're directed to the bagel shop downstairs for breakfast... but you can't access it from your entrance
We stayed at the Farmhouse after a week hiking in Glacier. It was such a pleasant stop for us. The owner, Chris, was so willing to assist us with everything we needed. The room was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We realized this was a renovated old home which added to its charm. The community is all being renovated adding excitement for what’s to come. Nearby is a lovely trail along the railroad that we walked several times down to Whitefish Lake … beautiful! The Kitchen served us the most delicious breakfast!! Everything tasted amazing and was so fresh!! Perfect place for a night or 2 away from a busy life. Try to catch the Farmers Market. Wow what a treat! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We had a comfortable 4 night stay at Farmhouse Inn. Based on the online reviews and description we were expecting a bed and breakfast vibe, but this is more like an Airbnb room above a non-operating cafe. Full self-service check in/check out - we never saw any staff or other guests! And no housekeeping/linen or towel service etc. The location is great, rooms are simple (but basic) just different than we expected!
