Tucked into the forested mountains of Northwest Montana, The Cabins at Blacktail offers a magical mountain escape complete with the tranquility of a natural spring and creek—ideal for corporate offsites, wellness retreats, intimate group gatherings and weddings. Just minutes from downtown Lakeside, MT, one hour from Glacier National Park and with access to year-round adventure, this forested retreat is more than just a beautiful stay—it’s an experience for the senses.
Here are five standout ways meeting and event planners can activate this nature-centered property:
1. Host an Elevated Corporate Retreat
With six fully appointed two-bedroom, one-bath cabins with full kitchens (each sleeping four guests), high-speed Starklink WiFi, immersive outdoor rolling mountain views, and private hot tubs, The Cabins at Blacktail is an ideal venue for leadership offsites, team-building events, or strategic planning sessions. Quiet, focused, and inspiring, your team will leave refreshed and rejuvenated.
2. Create a Signature Wellness Experience
Tap into the property’s wellness amenities: a handcrafted custom 8 person Finnish sauna and a natural spring-fed cold plunge, tucked in the trees. Add forest massages, on-site facials, or guided breathwork and yoga sessions for an unforgettable health-forward retreat.
3. Celebrate with a Forest Wedding or Private Event
The cabins can accommodate up to 24 overnight guests and up to 100 for outdoor events, making it perfect for destination weddings or luxury micro-events. Think forest ceremonies, mountain receptions, and cozy afterparties around the massive propane fire pit nestled under twinkling lights.
4. Offer Seasonal Adventure Packages
Surrounded by Flathead Valley’s four-season recreation—skiing, hiking, boating, biking, and Glacier National Park—Lakeside is a natural fit for outfitters, guides, and tour operators looking to package experiences with premium lodging. Ask us about our vendor partners and incredible experience offerings—glass-bottom kayaks, alpaca tours, seaplanes, snowmobiling, and much more!
5. Curate Group Stays with Hospitality Touchpoints
Each cabin features locally roasted coffee, full kitchens, washers/dryers, and private hot tubs, fire pits, and picnic tables. Onsite private chefs, in-cabin meals, curated charcuterie boards—if you can dream it, we can help you create it! A focus on local is our specialty! For meeting planners and DMCs, this creates a canvas for curated itineraries—whether for families, leadership teams, or creative retreats.
The Cabins at Blacktail blends thoughtful hospitality, luxury-in-nature accommodations, and outdoor event-ready infrastructure—all less than 3 miles from Lakeside and just a gorgeous drive away from all that the Flathead Valley has to offer.
