Things To Do
Glacier National Park
It's called the Crown of the Continent for a reason. At approximately a 5.5 hour drive from Sage Lodge, this park is a must-see if you are planning on spending extended time in Montana. The East side of the park offers the best views of the mountains and lakes although it is a bit more rustic than the West side, which is built up with more tourist attractions/restaurants/etc. We recommend driving the Going-to-the-Sun road, visiting Lake McDonald, Two Medicine, and Saint Mary Lake.
Yellowstone National Park
Our recommended must-sees: Mammoth Hot Springs, the Grand Prismatic Spring, and Old Faithful. From the north entrance, you can reasonably visit all within half a day. If you're feeling adventurous, Grand Teton National Park is a short drive away!
Grand Teton National Park
A short drive from Yellowstone. We recommend visiting Jenny and String Lakes.
Chico Hot Springs
Chico is an affordable and rustic hotel just a few minutes up the road from Sage Lodge. They have a hot springs pool and a very Western saloon.

Largest natural freshwater lake West of the Missouri River in the United States. The lake offers excellent panoramic views with mountain ranges in the background. Plus it's home to Wild Horse Island.
