Bigfork was founded in 1901, about the time the hydroelectric plant at the mouth
of the Swan River was built to supply electricity for Kalispell. The electric
company is still here where water from the river is diverted to a higher level,
then dropped through turbines to generate power. It is an exceptionally lovely,
upscale, year-round resort village that is brimming with art galleries, fine
restaurants, golf, high-end boutiques, and live theater.
Bigfork is located on the Flathead Lake in the center of an outdoor enthusiast’s
paradise with plenty fishing, boating and hiking opportunities to enjoy. Located
in the community is the impressive and challenging Eagle Bend Golf Course.
The Bigfork Summer Playhouse is considered one of the Northwest’s finest
repertory theaters. It is located in a modern, air-conditioned theater structure
seating 450 people. The fast-paced, light singing, dancing and acting provide
great family entertainment. The Broadway musicals which are presented Monday
through Saturday feature some of the most outstanding young talent in the
country. Past performances include Fiddler on the Roof, My fair Lady, Sound of
Music, Annie Get Your Gun and the Music Man. .
