About this property
Comfortable well-equipped home in the aspens and quick 20 min to Yellowstone.
The Aspen Getaway has loads of mountain charm and is located in a quiet neighborhood, surrounded by aspens and evergreens. Perfectly equipped for your family vacation. Established VRBO with wonderful property manager.
Living spaces: The main floor has a recently remodeled kitchen with bar seating for four; dining room with decorative (non-functional) wood stove in fireplace and a locally made table with six chairs; living room with couch, three comfy chairs, one with ottoman, a rocking chair and freestanding propane stove.
Sleeping: 4 rooms to spread out. Main floor primary bedroom with queen bed and private; main floor second bedroom with queen bed. Second floor spacious bedroom with a queen bed, couch and rocking chair. Second floor roomy loft (sleeps 4) with queen bed, daybed with pop-up trundle and a 2nd TV with DISH and Blu-ray so the kids can hang out apart from the adults.
Bathrooms: 1 main bath with tub shower combo, primary bedroom has private 3/4 bath.
Outdoor: Plenty of parking (space for 4 vehicles). Front porch with 2 wood rockers and glider. Propane fire pit for safe marshmallow and hot dog roasting. Expanded and fenced back deck with picnic table for relaxing Propane BBQ grill for your cookouts stored in garage for bear safety.
Conveniences/amenities: High thread count sheets, fluffy towels, washer/dryer, Internet WiFi, satellite TV, and Blu-ray. Bear proof trash removal - picked up weekly. Water sanitizer/softener/treatment system (2020) for great water quality.
The Aspen Getaway is close to everything and far enough away to relax. Located about 20 minutes south of the west entrance of Yellowstone National Park. It is 4 miles south of Henry's Lake for that monster fish catch, 5 miles north of the Henry's Fork River in Mack's Inn for river floats, and about 15 miles north from the Island Park Reservoir. Restaurants, gas stations, Island Park golf course, fishing, hunting, ATV trails, river rafting, horseback riding, and water sports are all just minutes away from the cabin.

About Greg and Lisa McAlister - Owners
We purchased this home in September 2017. Greg grew up in Texas but I grew up in Gardiner, MT (the north entrance of the park). Buying this wonderful home in Island Park is almost coming home for me! We currently live in the central valley of California and look forward to lots of great summer adventures in Island Park.

Why they chose this property
Besides the house itself, we love the abundance of trails in the area, closeness to Henry's Lake and are over the moon to be so close to Yellowstone. No matter where I have travelled, my heart has always belonged to Yellowstone and Greg has grown to feel the same.
