Whitefish, Montana
Our pick for: Unrivaled postcard-perfect scenery
With gems like Whitefish tucked into its terrain, it’s easy to see why Montana is called the “Treasure State.” Folks come to this paradisiacal northern Rocky Mountain town tucked into the edge of Glacier National Park for the Instagram-worthy views, world-class skiing and other recreation possibilities, like white-water rafting, fly fishing and snowboarding.

Skiers flock to the slopes in the winter and out-of-towners to its annual summer festivals.
