If you are looking for great pizza and cheese sticks, you have got to fry this place. We got the herbivore pizza and cheese sticks and had enough for 2 meals. Although it took just over 30 minutes for our food, it was worth the wait. There's this place at one end of the building and then a great bar at the other end. I highly recommend the Miners Gold Hefeweizen!

We did an all day ride with Chad. He is awesome and we had a blast!! We love riding and don't get to ride much at all. This was a treat. Chad was a great guide and very attentive. You do stop to give the horses and yourself a break. While taking your break you have beautiful views and the sound of total quiteness. Sit back, close your eyes and take it all in! So worth the whole experience. They provided a nice lunch for the day. So you don't go hungry. Take a water bottle with you. They provide saddle and horn bags to put extra snacks, water or what ever you need in them. There is plenty of Huckleberrys and Thimbleberry's to pick and eat at a stop or 2.
I would recommend booking a trip with them. Its so worth the memories and fun you will get out of it.

Went there for the Cowboy Cookout 2 hour ride and dinner. My husband had never been on a horse before, and they paired him perfectly with a calm horse. The staff was kind, knowledgeable, and liked to have a good laugh with the guests.

Had an AMAZING horseback riding experience here in the spring of 2012, and I wanted to HIGHLY recommend these people! Our guide was awesome, professional, kind, and safe. We had a small group but the ride was beautiful, despite the sprinkles of rain along the way. I'm so glad I paid for this experience, because it was worth every dollar and then some! I still reflect - almost 5 years later - on this afternoon and evening which were beautiful, relaxing, recharging, and pure enjoyment.
Many thanks to the great people who run this establishment. If you're looking for a real horseback riding experience, I'd trust them ANY DAY.

This place was great! Me and my family reserved a morning of horseback riding, and it was wonderful. The gift shop has interesting souvenirs for the area, good service. They closed a little early but probably just because it was a Sunday.

Went on a trail ride. Horses were good, loved the halflingers, staff both in the center and on the ride were very nice. We did not get to trot or do anything more interesting than a walk, but the scenery was pretty with all the fall leaves.

Awesome gift shop and tons of interesting displays and info on the region and Glacier Nat'l Park. Also an ice cream/coffee shop with sundaes, and a bar with some incredible beers!

Swan Horse Riding is Amazing. Enjoyed my ride on Nash with Guide Max.

Interactive displays, retail shop with lots of great items for camping as well as souvenirs, & local/Montana made products. Can't forget the horse corral for trail rides!
Helpful and friendly staff!!
There is also ice cream (which is very good) and a bar & restaurant, but I did not drink or eat from either of those, though I have heard both are great.

This place is a must stop! They have an interactive learning center where you can learn about Glacier and the different constellations. They also have the best high quality Made in Montana section in the area to get gifts for everybody. Their ice cream is amazing. They have yummy Mexican food and coffee, besides the tours they offer. Plus the staff is so nice.

We went on a one hour horseback riding trip and it was fantastic! Just long enough. A.J. was our guide and he was wonderful. Everyone was super friendly and we had a great experience overall. Highly recommend.

I try to stop here on my way back from work for Mexican food at La Casita, and beer in the bar at the Discovery Center. It's too bad more people don't know about this spot, it's kind of a hidden gem right near Glacier National Park. Also, lots of things to do to keep kids busy after a trip to the park. It's kind of nice to be able to chill on the deck with a drink, coffee, or food. Worth a stop, highly recommend.

Beautiful Montana-made gifts (I love doing my Christmas shopping here-in July), tasty food, refreshing ice cream and good cocktails with local spirits. We love visiting this business!

Great place with awesome outdoor adventures

Crown of the Continent Discovery Center is the only place around Glacier National Park where you can learn about the local area, get a cocktail or a good cup of coffee, have an ice-cream cone, and let your kids have a blast at the free petting zoo! It's also by far the best, most modern gift shop in the Glacier area. A must stop.

They offer many excursions but I took the 1/2 day horseback ride and it was great the wranglers were just the bomb friendly informative

We went there to horseback ride and realized how much this center had to offer. There is a great store, education and a restaurant. Worth a stop on the way to Glacier national park

The workers are welcoming, the horses are well trained, and the guides were awesome. Great place to ride horses.
