7/24/08: Lake MacDonald Village Inn in Apgar (http://www.glacierparkinc.com/Lodging/PropertyDetails.asp?id=6&prop=V). We had a two bedroom second floor room overlooking the lake with a view for a spectacular sunrise. This is the place to stay on the west side of the park - great views, walking distance to the village, easy hikes, etc. The Inn is definitely dated, but if you are looking for The Ritz, you are in the wrong place - this provides a comfortable room after a long day in the outdoors and all the necessities.
The kids enjoyed the water (for a brief time) as it was COLD! The Inn is very close to the Going to the Sun Road http://www.nps.gov/glac/planyourvisit/goingtothesunroad.htm (the central artery for this park!) There are a lot of great short (family friendly) hikes on this side of the park like the Apgar lookout trail and Avalanche Lake.
The kids were able to look past the 50 degree water and wade in. They were the only ones I saw in the water the whole visit.
