Life is too short to spend it sitting in a dark corner of your house, missing out on all the life experiences school provides in addition to the tutorial lessons. Take your children’s education into your own hands and experience some real-life sagas in the comfort of the outdoor Montana mountains, and explore many options of rental places to stay in Whitefish MT. Escape to a place where the alpine breeze will guide you on your way, offering a reprieve from the Zoom meetings, math problems, and personal essays which, by the way, don’t sting nearly as bad when you and your kids are staring at the gorgeous mountains outside the window.

Schoolhouse Rock
Heading out to the wild west of Whitefish, Montana, you might have a vision of a single-room schoolhouse in a meadow at the base of a towering mountain range. Luckily, times are evolving and instead of chalkboards being the fundamental criteria for successful home study, today it’s high-speed internet. When booking a vacation rental with I Love Whitefish, you’ll find Wi-Fi isn’t the only quintessential home study tool we can provide to foster academic success.
Every vacation rental in Whitefish is fully equipped with everything you need to have a fantastic and productive time during your stay. With a kitchen featuring full-sized appliances and everything you need to prepare even the most extravagant meal (or simply heat up some pizza pockets in the microwave), you can keep all of your favorite snacks stocked for those quick breaks between classes. It doesn’t matter if you’re facilitating online school for young kids or young adults; food is perhaps the most important way to keep the energy levels up and the temper tantrums down. After that, sleep. This is why our tastefully decorated bedrooms outfitted with plush bedding atop a quality mattress will absolutely make your night. Whether you’ve been studying all day or had the opportunity to get out and explore, you’ll love resting at your home away from home.
Speaking of Adventuring…
Hands-on experience is perhaps the most critical part of learning, so we applaud you for looking into other ways to further your children’s education. Video conferencing and online worksheets can be great and all, but what about studying the laws of physics atop the mountain of Montana’s own version of an amusement park? A popular destination for residents and tourists alike, Whitefish Mountain Resort offers a roaring good time year-round.
Located atop The Big Mountain just four miles from Whitefish, the convenient location is just the start of everything this resort has to offer, and you can choose from many rental places to stay in Whitefish MT close to it. During the summer months, you won’t believe all there is to do. Ski slopes suddenly transform into trailblazing mountain bike courses, providing fast-paced rides down the mountain while soaking in amazing views. Can’t bring your bike with you? No problem. Whitefish Mountain Resort has a bike rental program so you can have all of the fun without any of the worries.
Another big crowd-pleaser is Montana’s longest zip line tour, which will have you soaring high above the ski slopes, over ravines, and through the tree lines as the alpine air whips through your hair. Another favorite is the Aerial Adventure Park, where you can push yourself to the limit crossing cable bridges, climbing rope ladders, and swinging on a trapeze through your own self-guided tour (and at your own pace… Phew!). With lots of other destinations, such as alpine slides, summer tubing, and scenic gondola rides, you’ll only wish the days were longer when it comes to spending your days at Whitefish Mountain Resort.
During the cold of the winter months, skiers of every skill level will love coasting down the powdery slopes. Continue your kids’ education by taking advantage of the various ski lessons available. Parents craving some time to themselves to catch their breath can take full advantage of the Kid Center, offering a safe place for kids ages 6 months to 6 years to play and meet new friends while their parents romp the mountain. If you’d like to slow your pace a little, strap on some snowshoes or some cross-country skis and embark on a brisk journey with epic views. Sledding, snow tubing, snowmobiling, ice skating, and so much more are available to you all season long, so make the most of your downtime when you can all take a break from the books.
Another important lesson to learn is teamwork. Treat yourself to a drive south through the Flathead Valley to Basecamp Bigfork. With 17 Inuit dogs, these pups were the original explorers of the Arctic and love to pull you through their exclusive wooded trails atop the Montana mountains. Basecamp specializes in a hands-on approach, allowing you to be as involved as you’d like for the whole process. If you’re traveling with a larger group, check out their “Day with the Dogs” package, a customized experience that ensures everyone gets a chance to tour the open terrain and trails by dogsled, while the rest of your party enjoys a cozy campfire, hot beverages, smores, and the chance to try cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.
