About this property

Enjoy the relaxing and fun atmosphere of this one of a kind log house. It is tucked in the mountains at the “end of the road” in the old mining town of Jardine, Montana, which is 6 miles northeast of Gardiner – the north entrance to Yellowstone Park. This place offers a nice balance between seclusion and easy access to endless sightseeing, wildlife viewing, and outdoor recreation opportunities.

This property is located near an outfitting business, Specimen Creek Outfitters. They offer horseback rides, as well as pack trips and hunting trips into the Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness.

The North Fork of Bear Creek is only about 100 yards below. It is a beautiful mountain stream and the fishing is good! Nights are quiet and peaceful. And the night sky is brilliant – take time to gaze at the stars.

This house is rustic and has lots of character. It is clean and cozy, but the layout and decor aren’t too fussy or uptight. The original portion of the house was built in 1994 with logs skidded out of the forest with a team of Percheron horses and peeled by hand. It includes an open kitchen with appliances and dishes. There is a deck where you can kick back and take in the scenery. One bathroom has an antique clawfoot tub. There is a loft/bedroom with a homemade queen size log bed. There is a nice sounding old piano for the fun of it.

A versatile 'great' room, which includes a bar (with sink, fridge and TV) and a full bathroom was added on to the house in 2001, and it is ideal for entertaining and hanging out. There are antlers, tanned hides, antiques, etc. throughout the house – sort of a wildlife/western theme. There is a large yard with trees, a picnic table, and a firepit. The native wildflowers are beautiful and plentiful. And various species of birds and wildlife will share this property with you.

There are also two convertible sofa beds in addition to a bedroom and the loft. The unique floor plan of this home can easily and comfortably accommodate a group of 6. This property is kid friendly and your well behaved pets are welcome too!

beautiful cabin exceeded expectations but road was a problem

The cabin was beautiful and well situated in the forest. Quiet and so peaceful! We had a lot of rain so weren't able to enjoy the outdoor amenities which were cute. Very welcoming and there's everything you could want - even the fireplace was prepped for a fire! Lots of space! I'm an experienced fire pit user so managing the fireplace in the daytime was easy but didn't know how to set the damper to keep warm overnight. We didn't have internet most of the time so written instructions would be helpful to be added. We drove a minivan which was not really suited for this road and the tires were slipping on the last incline to the cabin. It may have been just the weather and, obviously, the road is not the fault of the property owner. The 6 miles up to the cabin will take about 20-25 minutes drive time each way and we hadn't realized that.

Fabulous!

A nice quiet mountain retreat from the busy days we spent in Yellowstone and the Gallatin NP. Everything is provided. We were very comfortable. If you want a mountain vacation this is your place. Fishing, horseback riding, hiking, wildlife and more. Montana people are friendly and kind. I hope to return one day.

Remote And Quite Location

If you want a really nice clean remote quiet location, this is it. The road up can be a bit of a challenge as the county does not grade it often, but that is not the owners fault. The place was fantastic for my family and I.
