Kandahar Lodge

Kandahar Lodge sits ski-in/ski-out on the slopes of Whitefish Mountain Resort, one of Montana's premier ski destinations with over 3,000 acres of terrain and famously deep powder. The lodge's European alpine aesthetic — think Austrian-style architecture, stone fireplaces, and warm woodwork — fits naturally into Montana's northern Rockies landscape near the Canadian border. The sauna and outdoor hot tubs on the mountain-facing deck offer some of the most dramatic après-ski views in the American West, with vistas stretching to Glacier National Park's glaciated peaks. The Cafe Kandahar restaurant is known as one of Montana's finest, serving locally sourced ingredients with French technique. Glacier National Park is just 25 miles away, making this an ideal base for combining ski season with one of America's great wilderness parks.
