Kalispell sits near the head of Flathead Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi. Glacier National Park, with its majestic snowcapped peaks, is close by. They can be seen from the downtown area where a well-established main street circles Kalispell’s courthouse at one end. This small, thriving city is home to the Conrad Mansion, a 19th-century Norman-style mansion with 26 originally furnished rooms, Tiffany glass and eight fireplaces.
