Whitefish, Montana is a special place. It is situated among Glacier National Park, Flathead Lake, Big Mountain Ski Resort, Whitefish Lake, and endless miles of trails, lakes and mountains protected by state lands. Combined with a hip, artistic and outdoors-y town, it's hard to find a sweeter place outside of the Swiss Alps. The magnitude of recreational activities and travel, dining and shopping amenities makes this area an international destination for regular families as well as the Hollywood set wishing a more private, lower-profile holiday.
