Travel with Me | Winter Babymoon in Whitefish, MT, Whitefish, Montana

Daniel and I will take any excuse to travel, and this past January (2020), our excuse was a babymoon for Baby Boy #2 coming in April! I’ve had Whitefish, Montana on my travel list for years. I’d heard it was a beautiful ski town in the mountains with good food, and while we don’t ski, I know that a ski town usually offers a cozy experience, especially with snow falling out the window. I was looking for the ultimate hygge time away. Also, in my experience, ski towns don’t always have such a great food scene, so I felt that this made Whitefish unique.

After dropping off our 20-month-old with his Abuelo & Abuela in Fort Worth, we took a Thursday afternoon flight via Denver to Glacier Park International Airport (FCA). We had a long layover, but I enjoyed reading and people watching while Daniel got some work done. We arrived late at night, so we just stayed at a TownePlace Suites I booked with Marriott points for the first evening. We then stayed two nights at a bed and breakfast (see below), and then on Sunday night, we booked a free night at a Holiday Inn Express before our VERY early flight home on Monday morning. We did have a rental car for this trip, which I think is pretty necessary unless you are staying downtown with no plans to go driving in the mountains or nearby towns. ......
