Red Eagle Motel & RV Park

Planned late for staying at GNP. Took a chance with Red Eagle and we're glad we did. Is it very basic accommodations? Yes. Does it look run down from the outside? Yes. Were the towels old and did they remind me of what's in my rag bin at home? Yes. Did it serve our needs of a clean room with enough room to not feel cramped, a comfortable bed and nice front desk staff who stored our block of cooler ice in their personal freezer? Yes. Was it less than a mile from the St Mary Visitor Center? Yes. When staying near a National Park, we notch our expectations way down. Compared to the cost of the other lodging that was available, it was reasonable. It's not really a 3 out of 5, more like 2.5. Adequate. Johnson's restaurant, on the same property, is a real "Mom and Pop" place with good food and good prices. Just don't go there looking for a decent salad, you'll find that at the Two Dog Flats restaurant in the park at Sun Point.

Now I'm all for supporting Mom and Pop establishments and I love to support the little guy, but:||It was absolute survival to stay here. I would NOT recommend this property for any reason. Do not expect anything good from this bare bones accommodations. ||It's a time-warp motel/RV park, which is okay, if it was nice.||There were too many flying insects in the room. The window sill needed to be vacuumed, there were too many dead bugs just lying there. Dead bugs were squished on the walls and ceiling. It was quite disgusting.||The shower head was way too low. I had to crouch to take a shower and I'm a big guy. At least the water got hot. The room smelled funky, like a damp basement. The sheets were worn and bumpy from lint. The blue towels were thin and always stayed damp and smelly. The bathroom was bright but the bedroom was very dark. The sink did not have a stopper in the drain, be careful not to lose your wedding ring.||The clothes closet was in the bathroom, so when you took a shower all of your clothes hanging there got damp. ||It was a bit noisy at night with the people walking upstairs.||The only good part of the stay was that parking is right outside your room, and Glacier N.P. entrance is practically right across the street. There are restaurants and shops located nearby that are within walking distance.||I would not recommend staying here, ever.

Pleasantly surprised at this small motel! I stayed in one of the ground level rooms (and it appeared that these had been remodeled) Basic room with bed, night stands, adjoining bathroom with large walk-in shower. Wall mounted TV, small table n chairs, and a larger-than-most hotels refrigerator. The queen bed was newer and very comfy! Nice towels and bedding...nothing fancy, but CLEAN. And, you cannot beat the price!|I highly recommend this small motel on the EAST side of Glacier Nat'l Park. It was near the park entrance up a slight hill right off the main road that runs through the area.|I then visited the big lodge, the lake, and drove up to Babb, etc.|I highly recommend this motel if you need basic accommodations!

Great location. Dated but clean accommodation. Staff was great. Great motel for hikers. Out all day and need a clean comfortable bed. This place supplied that and would come back again. Johnson Restaurant 50 yds away was awesome. Ate there 4 out of 5 nights. Thanks for a nice 5 days

We stayed here one night due to the proximity to the park. We stayed in room 10 which I think had been updated. It was fine. Wasn’t the Hilton but didn’t expect it to be. It was clean and had hot water to shower. The exterior needs some updates but if you are looking for a place reasonable just outside the park I would stay here again

After reading some of the reviews, I was a little concerned about booking this place, but it was the only one in the area with a room available so I booked it. It's obviously an older motel that was probably built well over 50 years ago, but we were very happily surprised to find a very clean room with a very comfortable bed. It's not a 4 star place but it gets 5 stars in my opinion. The rustic appearance and the view outside was awesome. We stayed two nights and it was very pleasant, and the rate was far better than any other place around. We paid cash and it was under $300 for two nights total. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Was surprisingly quiet in the room. We were in room 3. The let me store a car trailer out back for the few days we were there and felt totally safe with the car and trailer sitting there. Was a little warm in the room but opened the windows and had a fan I sit in the window after the sun went down and cooled the room right down. I would for sure stay here again.

It always depends on what you might expect.||The motels offers average rooms (not spacoius, but really big enough), but there is a lack of maintenance. The bathroom was small but functional, the coffee machine was filled with the water of other guests, the beds were definitily okay, the TV was really nice, an old machine...but...why not. We were not there for watchin TV.||The whole construction of the wooden parts of the hotel didn't look very well kept. Some colour and care might help.||All in all the Motel was okay, the setting was really good (nice viesw!), but for the comfort offered, the price was high.
