Nice clean quite place near Yellowstone West Entrance... Upper room head clearance was low for tall people as the ceilings tapered downward. Minor inconvenience though. No laundry soap... Dish washer sits on top of counter-top, missed recognizing it. Might want to place a placard on it. My bad... Would stay again. Ron..

Great place to stay.

This was a fantastic place to stay. Was equipped with everything we needed. Everything was new and clean. Was close enough to drive to Yellowstone. The accommodations were just right for all of us.

Island Park Cottage

My husband, 2 teenage sons, and I stayed here for a summer vacation close to Yellowstone. We had a great time and loved the cottage. We enjoyed hiking, kayaking, and fly fishing. Teara was so helpful and Paige gave us some great recommendations for things to do and see while we were there. We really enjoyed the kayaking with Paige and Teara and would highly recommend it. We will be back!

Fabulous Getaway!

Ah, where to begin with our enchanting stay at the cottage? It was magical—a true winter wonderland, as if plucked from a cherished storybook. The snow fell gently, cloaking everything in a serene white hush, while the cottage wrapped us in warmth and comfort.The owner was delightful and attentive, responding promptly to any queries, though the cottage was so well-prepared we hardly needed to ask. Its layout was charming yet practical, and the kitchen was wonderfully stocked with everything needed for hearty winter meals.Our days were filled with wonder. We visited West Yellowstone and the captivating Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center. When not exploring, we took lovely walks through pristine snow, marveling at the landscape’s frosty magic.A few tips: a vehicle with four-wheel drive is recommended, as snowplows aren’t always timely. Also, grocery prices in West Yellowstone are a bit higher, so planning ahead can help.All in all, the cottage was a warm haven amid winter’s beauty. We wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a serene, storybook escape. Bravo to the owner for this splendid retreat!

6/10 Okay

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
Although this place could have been wonderful, there were many disappointing items. These are my reasons for an Okay rating.There was an excessive amount of unsolicited emails before, during, and after our stay.The kitchen was a bit of a jumble, not leaving any storage space for our food and supplies.Many of the blinds in the house are destroyed. It looked terrible and reduced privacy.The 2 chairs in the kitchen are too tall for the table, so they aren't comfortable to use.The VRBO listing photos are not up to date. There is junk along the garage, hoses running around the yard, and a sprinkler left in the middle of the walkway. The fenced off area beside the garage looks like a junk heap. The backyard seating includes one camping chair, a couple bar height metal stools, and a broken picnic table. And lastly, there were no mentions of the nearby river being low and inaccessible during the time we were there (September).

Perfect location for adventure and relaxation

Teara is a wonderful host. She is very responsive and assisted our family when plans changed. The property has everything you need to relax, cook a great meal, or a homebase for local adventure. The area is quiet with being easily accessible. The cabin is very spacious, well designed to provide comfort along with privacy. The space was spotless. We also attended her Kayak adventure in the morning which was the most amazing experience we have done as a family in a long time. She is outstanding as a guide and host.

Absolutely beautiful, comfortable, quaint!

Staying in The Caldera Cottage was a dream! Very spacious, a good sized backyard, a grill! We loved staying here. Taera and Andy were so welcoming and willing to meet every need. The house was clean, well put together, and in an amazing spot. It’s far enough away from the city that you don’t have any interference, but not far enough away that you can’t go get the things you need. The beds are PHENOMENAL. I slept better on the beds there than I do at home! You know a company values their clients when they spend money on good beds and good pillows. The cottage is located near several very fun ATV/OTV trails, wildlife is aplenty, and the river is right around the corner. The atmosphere of the cabin and the surrounding area is so serene and calming. I quite literally did not want to come home. It’s also very child friendly! I have 3 children between 9 months and 7 years and they all enjoyed themselves the whole time!

Yellowstone Getaway

Owners were great to communicate with. Reservation process was simple. Check-in was as easy as entering our code into the secure deadbolt. Location was a perfect place to end each day of adventures at Yellowstone. The cottage was super clean and the beds were firm and comfortable. Highly recommend this cottage to all adventurers!!
