St Marys Village Glacier cabin

Question

Anyone know the size of the mini fridge at St Marys Village in their Glacier cabin? We booked and curious size for a 2 adults and child

Answer

Good questions — I couldn’t find any publicly available documentation that gives the exact internal dimensions (cu ft, height, width, etc.) of the mini-fridge in the “Glacier Cabin.” The official amenity listing simply says “mini-refrigerator.”

Here’s what I can piece together — and what I’d assume if I were you:

St. Mary’s “Glacier Cabins” are described as one-bedroom cabins (queen bed + sofa sleeper), with a small kitchenette and a mini-refrigerator.
Based on what other travelers mention in reviews of “cabin-style” lodging at or near Glacier National Park, the fridge is likely a small dorm-style or compact refrigerator rather than a full-size fridge. For example, in a review of a similar cabin, someone noted they could easily store a couple of suitcases and a cooler along with the cabin’s fridge — suggesting modest overall room size.
Given that the kitchenette is “small” and there’s no full kitchen or large kitchen-type refrigerator listed, it’s reasonable to assume the mini-fridge is sufficient for storing drinks, snacks, and modest grocery items (sandwich materials, leftovers, small perishables), but not for long-term storage of a week’s worth of food for three people unless you shop frequently.

What this means for 2 adults + 1 child:

The mini-fridge will likely be fine for short-term food and beverage storage: milk, water bottles, some produce, yogurt, snacks — especially if you plan to eat out or do groceries every few days rather than stock up.
If you expect to cook meals in advance and store larger quantities (e.g. multiple days’ worth of food), this set-up may feel cramped, especially with three people. Consider buying perishables in small batches or using coolers if needed.
Since the cabin includes a sofa sleeper and a small living/dining area, you’ll at least have a bit of space for meal prep and eating — but don’t count on a “home-kitchen” experience.

What you could do to get clarity before you go:

Call or e-mail St. Mary Village directly — often front-desk staff or booking agents can tell you the fridge model or approximate capacity. The contact info is available on their website.
If you have a cooler or soft-sided ice chest, plan to bring it for extra food storage (especially if you want breakfasts or lunches in-cabin).
Plan meals and grocery runs with a mindset toward frequent small purchases rather than stocking up once — that tends to work best with a small fridge in a travel-cabin context.

Bottom line: You should expect a compact/dorm-style fridge — plenty good for drinks, snacks, and short-term food storage, but not ideal for long-term meal prep or large grocery hauls for 3 people. If you’re okay with a modest fridge and plan accordingly, the cabin should work fine. If you prefer more food storage flexibility, bring a cooler or be prepared to restock often.
