If you're in the neighborhood of Glacier National Park, treat yourself to dining and lodging at Laughing Horse Lodge. It looks like a roadhouse, a honkytonk. Like chili and dogs and chili dogs. Inside it is cozy and intimate. The menu is not what you expect either, offering sophisticated appetizers like cambozola with honey sauce and dates, crimini mushrooms in... More

This a fav of my inlaws and it did not disappoint Friday night. Our party of seven was quickly seated at a reserved and prepared table. Service was very good although it was a busy night. I had the Soba noodle cake dish with chicken which was unusual but very tasty. Others had the various burger options which are huge.... More

Swan Lake is a town so small that if you started to change a radio station at one end of the town, you'd finish at the other end. BUT, in the middle is a fabulous little Inn with a one-of-a-kind kitchen and menu for a place this out of the way. Kathleen is the owner and she simply does what... More

So what you ask? Ten years of traveling and dining in small, privately-owned and exceptional locations like Teton Ridge Ranch and Bear Creek Lodge give us all the credibility we need to endorse Kathleen Moon's Laughing Horse Lodge. Set alongside Swan Lake in Swan Lake Montana, the ambience is pure upscale Montana. The food is excellent, wine choices perfect. And... More

We drove 100 miles round trip to go to Laughing Horse just for dinner, on the recommendation of friends. It was well worth the trip. Not only was the food very fresh, but the layered flavors made it unusually special. The menu provides very attractive dishes, and will appeal to people tired of seeing the same old menu items. The... More

The drive to the Laughing Horse is spectacular! We love to savor the stunning views of Swan Lake and the Swan Mountains as we anticipate arriving for Sunday brunch or for dinner. Stepping inside the door we are greeted by comforting aromas, a warm atmosphere, and friendly faces. The menu is not huge, but the salads are! Best hamburgers in... More

Every meal is prepared with the freshest ingredients and includes veggies and seasonings from Kathleen's garden. The food is creative and tasty and the burgers are the best in Montana! You can make this restaurant a... More

We have stayed at the Laughing Horse "Bed and Breakfast" several times, and always loved it...hence multiple return trips. Kathleen, the owner and chef is a funny and talented lady who can take an ordinary steak and make it something truly special. Her salads are really meals and are delicious! I love how she always has a special wine suggestion... More
