Glacier Backcountry Chalet Reservations to Change in 2016

For those of you who are wishing to stay at either the Sperry Chalet or Granite Park Chalet in Glacier National Park this upcoming summer, you may want to note that the reservation system will be changing this year. A recent posting on their blog states that the chalets will only accept reservations through their website from now on:

Longtime fans and friends of the chalets will notice some changes in how we take reservations for the 2016 season. We are working with the National Park Service to make sure the process is as fair and accessible as it can possibly be. The chalets are small and popular hotels in Glacier and there is sure to be a high demand. Here is some info that can help you out:

January 11 is the date we begin accepting 2016 reservations. The office will open at 8:00 AM mountain time zone. Any early requests will be discarded.

You may also want to note that reservations are on a first come first served basis:

First come first served will be strictly enforced. The order requests are put into our database is the order we will process them. Using the form on our website will be the fastest and easiest way to get onto that list.

For more information on this new process, I highly recommend reading the entire blog posting. Hikers may also want to note that both chalets are outstanding destinations for day hikes. Also, both chalets offers snacks and water for day hikers.
