Chef Adam and The Izaak Walton Inn would like to thank
the local farmers, distributors, purveyors, and their families
for growing and raising many of the products we proudly serve.
The Tudor Revival architectural style of the Izaak Walton is not the only influence
the Inn derives from the past. This family owned resort was built in 1939 for The
Great Northern Railway as lodging for railway workers and still holds true to some
of the era’s fashions and sensibilities. Essex was slated to serve as a middle entrance
to Glacier National Park between the West and East entrances. The onset of
WWII halted such plans and they never materialized thus leaving
the Inn tucked away in the Great Bear Wilderness.
The Izaak Walton Inn was purchased in 2006 by Brian Kelly and his wife, Mary.
Originally from Chicago, Mr. Kelly purchased the Inn with the intent of keeping
true to its historic traditions. Starting his military service with the Army and
finishing with the Air Force, Mr. Kelly continued serving his country when he
joined the Chicago Fire Department from which he retired after 18 years with the
title of “Blacksmith”. Growing up near the rail road has provided Mr. Kelly with
enough of a passion and respect for the history of The Great Northern route to
purchase its last flag stop inn. In retirement, Mr. Kelly enjoys the challenges and
rewards as Inn Keeper to one of the most amazing places on earth: The Izaak
Walton Inn. Currently the Izaak places an emphasis on a comfortable brush with
the past in which cross country skiers, hikers, vacationers, and rail fans
from all over the world can experience the million acres of
wilderness in which the Historic Izaak Walton stands.
