What are your Montana summer traditions? For locals and tourists alike, two things tend to come to mind: Glacier National Park and sweet, scrumptious huckleberries. Willows HuckleberryLand, also known as Willow Huckleberry Jam and Pie Factory, makes a perfect pit stop for those heading to Glacier, especially those who happen to love the Treasure State's official berry.
You'll find Willows HuckleberryLand on Highway 2 East in Hungry Horse, about 10 miles from the entrance to Glacier National Park.
If you grew up going to Glacier each summer, this place may have been a family tradition.
Willows has been open for the better part of a century, and this family business has become a local icon.
On a warm summer day, it isn't easy to find a seat inside.
The space is used to sell gifts, locally made treasures, souvenirs, and candy...
...but, as the name implies, it's the huckleberry treats that keep people coming back for more.
They sell both pie and ice cream -- and we recommend getting both.
The huckleberry pie and jam are both made onsite at the historic factory.
Guests can even take a look through the large windows and see the pie and jam-making action.
Did we mention this place is also a casual restaurant with the best breakfast and burgers ever?
The flame-grilled Buffalo burgers are especially delicious.
If you're planning to make a trip to Glacier this year, make sure you stop by Willows and show them some support.
Sometimes "support" looks like a big, freshly baked pie or a freshly made huckleberry milkshake.
Did you know that Willows HuckleberryLand existed? You can learn more about this longtime favorite family business on the company's website.
