Meet the Founder: Tera Lorimer
Owner of Luxury Getaways
Glacier has been part of my life for more than two decades. When my husband and I built our first custom mountain home here in the early 2000s, we had no idea how much this place would shape our family, our business, and the way we show up in the world. I was a young mom then, raising four boys while growing a business from the ground up, and learning firsthand what it meant to balance work, family, and a dream that kept pulling me forward.
Luxury Getaways grew naturally out of that season of life. I understood the importance of a home that feels welcoming, safe, and cared for. I understood how meaningful it is to create a space where people can connect and breathe a little easier. And I knew that if we were going to host guests and partner with homeowners, we would do it with the same intention and integrity we brought to raising our family.
Over the years, that commitment became our foundation. I stayed hands-on, involved in every detail, from testing products to walking homes to building trusted relationships with local professionals. As our portfolio grew, so did our roots in the community. We opened a physical office in downtown Glacier because being here matters. You can’t fake local presence or authentic care. You earn it by showing up daily, by supporting your neighbors, and by leading with honesty.
Today, Luxury Getaways reflects the journey I’ve lived as a mom, an entrepreneur, and a community advocate. It’s a place where quality, warmth, and trust guide everything we do. Our homes are curated for comfort and calm. Our team treats every property like their own. And our guests feel the intention behind each stay, whether they’re here for an adventure, a celebration, or a quiet reset.
More than anything, I want the people who choose Luxury Getaways to feel what I felt the first time I stood in the trees of Glacier — a deep sense of peace, belonging, and magic. That moment changed my life. My hope is that your time here leaves a lasting imprint too.
Welcome to Luxury Getaways. I’m grateful you’re here.
