- Whitefish Montana is a resort town located in the Northwestern United States just south of the Canadian border. This is a WhiteFish Montana travel guide that was completed in June 2021. We explore around the Whitefish river the lake and the downtown Whitefish area. We also show a little bit around the Colombia Falls area near Glacier National Park

Surprised you didn't show a visit to a local pub or restaurant! That's one thing we LOVE about your episodes! Keep up the great content!
Oddly enough this was supposed to be a 22 minute upload. And for some reason it only uploaded 7:24 of the video and I just caught it. Whoops. That’s no bueno. Well the glacier video will be longer for sure
Totally agree
Prime rib and buffets and great service all over the area. I come down from Canada and fly out of Kalispell; it's a lot easier and straight forward. And I stay at least a couple of days; great local people.
Christmas in Whitefish.......beautiful
I fly out of Kalispell all the time; inexpensive parking, great vehicle service, and always stay another day or two upon return. You clear the border and you're inside the USA, so everything is easy. I walked from the airport and couldn't step out onto the highway without people stopping and asking if I wanted a ride into town (it's six miles). That's NW Montana hospitality.
This small town looks so cute. I am planning to visit whitefish in January :) Thank you for posting, this was very helpful!
I'm going in December and staying at the lodge. I'm hoping to not get screwed out of it this year like I did last year due to covid restrictions. Hope everything stays normal for you!
How was your trip? Lol
It’s very wealthy town and very very lovely!!!
@Jake S yes I am and thank you so much.
@Jake S haha. I’m 100% Italian thank you very much and next time don’t be so judgmental on people skins colors from a photo. Never assume😉
Can confirm. I lived in Montana for 6 years. Whitefish was literally a 15 minute drive away. I actually worked at a restaurant called piggyback barbecue. You won’t find better bbq in that town. God I miss it so damn much
Better one is that barbecue run by that old Tony.
In my youth, Montana and Idaho land was incredibly inexpensive. Not any more. I live in Sandpoint, Idaho; my family is from Montana and Idaho.
Well get on back here!!!
Thanks for sharing. I grew up in Whitefish. What an incredible place to have spent my formative years, although it has changed dramatically since the late 60’s & early 70’s. Still have family there and I still go back to visit for a week or two most summers. 😃
So do you go around crying about 'non-locals'? Everyone is from somewhere, and if they're smart, they go and see the world... which means they are immediately a tourist. Montanans are some of the rudest, most judgemental people I've ever met.
Make sure you have a Montana plate! HAHAHAH
Now that's real living !
Same thing happened here in Highlands NC.. invaded by Atlanta, Texas, SC, and Florida..I’m sorry but I’m fleeing my once small quite town and moving there.. Whitefish/Kalispell.. I promise ..I’m only bringing Country values and respect and admiration for the wilderness I love..
Everyone is from somewhere, and when you leave where you are from, you are immediately a tourist. cry cry cry 'Montanans'
I visited Whitefish a couple years ago and LOVED it!
Nice! I want to visit Whitefish 😊
amazing place i love montana
Thanks for the interesting and informative video.
Thanks for sharing. Looks like an amazing place to live
Can’t just blame out of town buyers - greedy opportunistic sellers ruin it as well.
Seems like a wonderful small town. 💛 I plan to visit Whitefish.
I just love Montana.
I am indigenous Montagnard Jarai live in North Carolina love to visit there one day
Beautiful place.
What a calm and beautiful place
Thank you I love it here I live here lol
So depressing.... I miss my old town. I don' t even go downtown anymore:-(
Why not?
@@RedRoseSeptember22 Yeah, why not? The downtown looks nice.
Prob covid
@@cathydrumobich9045 because it has been overrun by tourists, its not the same small town anymore, it's lost its charm and uniqueness. Once you start catering to just tourism, you lose it. Everything has become so expensive.
And if the tourism wasn’t bad enough, now they’re all moving here and driving up the housing costs. I was born and raised in Polson and I agree, it’s quickly overcrowding and losing its small town feel.
What a relaxing and fun place :)
Exactly 💯💯
i grew up in whitefish, moved to california as a teenager and finally made it out at 36
i wanted to go back to whitefish so bad but i heard that too many Californians already moved there so i chose a place in the black hills of south dakota instead
No, Californians and Hollywood types are in the expensive third homes they own on the lake, but they're not there often. But this area IS expensive and always has been: you either own a clear title ranch five generations deep OR a govt. well paid job, or you're on your own. Small population means service businesses are established and have the contracts. Even if you once lived in this area, it would be tough to come back w/o accumulated capital AND a career or Red Seal Trade.
Most Montanans are actually Californians from 200 years ago. But now they all claim they are the locals and treat anyone without a Montana plate like crap. That = a very low IQ, which the state is full of.
Californian... lol thank you for exploring the whitefish montana!!
sick of it. i wish it was the town i knew..... so many people now. sad.
Well I work at majestic Arena 2 minutes from Whitefish.,.....it's still awesome place to live....yes it's growing......I live in Kalispell Evergreen area!!!!love my HOME of MONTANA
Nor Cal beats out anywhere in Montana. Better people there.... not little cry babies like in Montana.
@@mikeauxbig lol cry babys.....Thats fine you have the right to your opinion!!!
Seems peaceful place to live.
Nice place to visit..
I'd love to visit! I wonder where I could perform?
My cousin and her partner used to run The Quickee sandwich bar. Sadly I never got to visit, or get a free sandwich! 🤣🤣
The real estate prices he quoted are off a bit. It is 2 years later, but the median sold home price is $493k, the median listing price is $796k. My brother's house doubled in price in about 2 years. My wife and I were looking at land way out of town (I am from there) about 4 years ago. It was 20 acres for 80k. there were 7 lots available. It was too remote for us because we know what the winter is like....lol......someone from California offered $150,000 cash without ever having seen the property. Of course it was accepted. The other listings were removed a day or two later. They went back up a week later for $140k each. All I have to say is that the tweekers will steal your generator out there if you are not home to protect it, and the roads are not plowed in the winter. It is also a high fire risk area and the insurance companies started pulling out of that area about 2 years ago. Good luck......lol
MT 💖💖🌸🌸
good video! have you been there again since? 🌲🌲
going here this july by amtrack train 29 hrs and 2mins there then 2 weeks spent her at a small ranch outside of town and then 29hrs 2mins back (asuming amtrack is not late) im gonna do my best to document the train ride at least.
😮
Ski here every year. Just saying Californian in Whitefish will raise eyebrows
Nor Cal is way more rural and red. Whitefish is for posers.
nice video wish u go fishing
Great video. What's your favorite restaurant in Whitefish?
America hoping to visit soon
Hey I have watched your early hawaii videos. Its nuts that your In my town. Stop at Markus foods and the Remington bar
Don’t go to Casey’s unless you want to get drugged
@@HannieLea good to know...
M'y Dreams visit montana
good
Que lugar lindíssimo!Deus abençoe
What was that big stream/river you were kayaking down?
At :11
@@blairetoch8028that is the Whitefish river ~ it runs right through the town.
the town looks great the people look weird . would hope that they are friendly in whitefish
What a charming town! And I can understand you all not wanting Californians moving there. I’m a born and raised Californian. (Senior). Don’t worry, I’m not moving that way 😉But housing here is so incredibly expensive that very very few can afford to buy. An 1100 sq ft home built in the 1960’s is about a million! Here’s a thought, tho, most “Californians weren’t born here, but came here from all over the country and where I live, all over the world. 🤷♀️
I saw ur Thialand vids!
Im from greatfalls mt so am i welcomed to move up there because I want to so bad
We don’t have room for all the tourists
Oh hi
@@willvanaatta2900 lol hi
Then don't leave your little po-dunk town. If you do, then you're immediately a tourist. Or do you think it only works to your advantage. Don't come to Nor-Cal where it's waaaay more rural and red. We run Montana plates out of the state at the border. Go home lil boy.
Good place to live?
California , just leave California in California
I agree the people are shit and ruin everything
Lmaoooo grew up in E WA live in Los Angeles. Can’t wait to be back
Kinda reminds me of hope county from far cry 5
Fall's end
Thank you for doing this video also please go back to Phoenix arizona.
Aka about Is central and thomas area
People move around....anyone leaving a place to live somewhere else is normal ...humans are nomadic.
California is one of the most populated state in the country.
Regarding the average home price in Whitefish being $300k - No. average home price is $799,000, and you’d be hard put to find anything that cheap.
What was not mentioned is #1 that Whitefish Montana and especially the ski hill (Big Mt) is also the poorest snow quality in the state. Layers upon layers of different types of snow. Making it very hard to ski. #2 your wait time at all restaurants in the summer is usually a two hr wait. Doesn't matter which restaurant. #3 Us locals do enjoy you folks spending your tourist dollars here but make sure you go home. Don't move here. You'll truly hate it. The ignorance of those in California have already ruined our little town. It's ok!! We carry guns and they hate guns. Some have already moved from the area. They didn't realize it SNOWED here. That's how ignorant they are. Thanks for visiting!! Now go home!!
Hugs and kisses to y'all!
Not every visitor who chooses to move there will hate it lol. But thanks for the warning anyways :D
Keep spreading the message, you’re doing gods work lol. I can’t handle working in whitefish anymore
@@travisdeming9416 Yup! 14 years I too work and lived in Whitefish. Never again!! It's a sh*t hole now! I'm sorry but ...I can't be nice about it. Dipsh*t's from California have ruined that town like a plague. A plague of sTuPiDiTy...and the day will come when there's nobody to work in the hospitality industry.
@@travisdeming9416 so glad I moved out at age 15
Yes @Nicco Visconti You can’t stop it, just get involved and manage things. CO, OR, WA, ID, VERMONT, NH all fought this before MT did. I know for a fact some are standing up and fighting to keep Kalispell nice.
Your kind of voice could be for a country singer
amazing how us Californians get blamed for the expensive real estate and crowding in every other state in the US. lol. we must all be billionaires with 20 offspring each.
As someone who grew up in South TX, its silly. One of the reasons I left TX is the incredibly toxic mob mentality of angry conservatives, and I'm much more right leaning than not. It's all "Point my finger at him instead of finding out whats wrong"
People are going to move where they're going to move. Every 100 years or so a kind of migration happens. And these people are the ones whos ancestors pushed the natives out, bloody murder and genocide and complain when tax paying people move there who probably do more for the planet than they do. So dumb
People from Montana have an average IQ of 12. They cry about when actually, they are all from California from 200 years ago.
People fleeing Cali for Idaho and Montana are causing the prices to spike up! 😢
People in Montana are all from Cali. Then they act all tough when someone from out of state wants to visit or move there. But when they leave, they are a tourist too.... but they are too entitled to realize it.
are blacks welcomed ?
Why wouldn’t they be?
Just look at the inner cities
Be careful
Whitefish is home to White advocate and organizer of the 2017 Charlottesville March: Richard Spencer
Since you know all about it, thanks in advance for not visiting!
@@milesfrank6802 I'm surprised you opt for ignorance over knowledge. Not many people will admit to favoring less info over more. I would want to know who my neighbors are.
You are the one opting out for less info, non whites do alot more harm to society and human rights, why not complain about that?
@@wednesday567 🤣 You’re being bred out 🤣🤣🤣
@@mailamakua602 you're right, that's why we never run out of food
The lack of diversity is DEEPLY disturbing
Diversity is a problem. If you want diversity, move to downtown Portland.
بالعكس شىء جميل جدآ البيض هم الأفضل
Wish I could purchase a house to visit but idk how mid west Americans would treat an Arab.
3300’ isn’t really considered high elevation. 😂
hope they left the trashy California politics in Cali and didn't mess up the values in Whitefish
Montana locals are way more trashy than rural and red NorCal.
It’s easy to blame Californians for increased home prices. Californians have to deal with the entire world and large companies like Blackrock buying up our properties. Count yourself lucky that your homes are increasing in value.
People from NorCal are stronger than anyone from Cali-tana.
I this town call whitefish
the people there seem cold and non-inviting... just like LA
I live in California and Californians ruined my town as well.
Would I be the only black person there?
Hey everyone in public schools in Montana! You can change your cell phone Bluetooth broadcast to whatever you want go to general settings . I put teachers4trump2024
ImpeachBiden and Letsgobrandon
I am a Native Texan and I consider Montana my second home. Both states have the same problem, Californians!
Most of Texans and Montanans are originally from Cali.... including your family too... boy.
@@mikeauxbig I am a descendant of a defender of the Alamo who came from Georgia. None of which came from California. Nice try boy.
@@PAUL-pz3rz Sounds like you defend jack sht. If you did you would be defending your entire country, not your ego. It's TEXANS who ruin Montana, and then they scapegoat on Californians. Typical.
@@PAUL-pz3rz Well YT deletes my comments again. If yer so proud, then be proud of ALL Americans, including those rural hard-working people from California. But it sounds like it's a problem to you. Cali is mostly rural and red. But the urban areas ruin it. Just like TEXANS have ruined Montana. Trust me, I know.... boy.
Montanans don't like Texans at all. Go play some golf and buy another ranch.
If the Cali hipsters eff up WF like the do everything and everywhere else, heads will roll…
Leave your politics there in CA if you want to live here
it's rich texas oil money that makes it expensive out there. stop blaming everything on california
Could you please improve your audio quality when your talking over your videos? Sounds boxy / cheap. Thanks for great youtube content.
Stop it California!!!
I take it you've never left your little po-dunk town then?
Going there looking for white peoples society 🤩
A very poorly done video
I lived there .
I used to visit here with my wife and her sisters.. Unfortunately I'm divorced, last trip here I made love to my wife's sister and she found out after a long night of drinking. Her sister told on me and started crying. I just packed my stuff left and never looked back. Divorce was finalized last year
Is Arab's like me welcomed???
