Bonnie was very easy to work with. The property was excellent home base as we explored Yellowstone. We loved the wildlife in the backyard. We went on a tour at 6 am and drove thru about 60 Elk on the road out of the property. The last couple of nights we left the bedroom window open and you could hear the Elk bellowing at night. Beautiful balcony and property. Would stay here again!
This house is a must stay for Yellowstone and the surrounding area. It is very close to the north gate and Gardiner. Bonnie is simply the best. The fact that you can fish the Yellowstone right out the back door is an absolutely priceless bonus.
The chalet is beautiful and overlooks Yellowstone for amazing views. Bonnie was incredibly helpful and gave some great tips for our stay. The chalet was well stocked for our cooking needs and our kids loved sleeping in the bunk beds. If we’re able to come back, we would absolutely rent the chalet again.
We loved our stay and couldn't be more happy with the home and the location. The home had stunning views and was an ideal location to access the park and all the Gardiner had to offer. The home itself is very well appointed with everything we needed and included very high-end features. We with out a doubt recommend this property to anyone interested.
This was the perfect home base for the end of our Yellowstone stay. The house was spotless, comfortable, very well equipped and close enough to the North Entrance that we could pop back into the park easily; Mammoth was only about 20 minutes away. The location itself is spectacular. We had elk in the yard almost every evening, saw marmots around the property, and had pronghorn and even a coyote nearby. Some of my favorite time from the whole trip was simply sitting on the deck in the evening looking out at the mountains and landscape. Having a full kitchen and plenty of space after several nights in park hotels was also wonderful. Bonnie was incredibly responsive, kind and full of useful local recommendations. Yellowstone Roughriders is just down the road as well, and I highly recommend their cast iron cowboy cookout while you’re here; it was the highlight of our time in Gardiner. We had a wonderful stay and would happily come back.
The river front chalet is even more gorgeous and impressive than the pictures show. The house is spotless, the furnishings are updated with a tasteful country theme. The view!!!! The view is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Literally the best view in the area. Herds of elk, and antelope frequented the yards daily, rabbits frolicked and there were baby Ospreys learning to fish all in our front yard !!The beds were comfortable, the sofa were comfortable as well and the bathrooms were spotless and clean. The location is ideal to stay close to all the adventure and minutes to the park but to also away from anything touristy and busy. Bonnie was so easy to work with. She was responsive and kind! We felt at home in the house from the moment we entered. If we ever came back I wouldn’t stay anywhere else. I’ve already sent the link to the house to friends who saw our pictures! Amazing all around
Perfect location to your Yellowstone and a beautiful home!!!! Would definitely stay here again.

Thank you Brooke with heading your review with "Amazing!!" That is music to my ears! Location is the key when visiting Yellowstone, both for convenience and for the safe and quiet environment to relax and watch our visiting wildlife from the wrap around deck.

Thank you Bernadette ... you must have just returned home. I especially appreciate your taking the time to let me know you loved your stay, enjoyed seeing the wildlife close, and in your words it was a "best experience" which I am very grateful for!
Our stay was lovely. Home is spotless and the location is perfect for exploring Yellowstone (10 minute drive to Roosevelt Arch). Views from the enormous deck are stunning. Wildlife grazing outside your window.
Would absolutely stay here again!

Hi Kenneth, wow ... short and sweet and to the point is when you said you "....could have just sat on the porch and watched the wildlife."
Yes, the chalet was designed to encompass an excellent viewing angle for photography, filming, observing our wildlife, the Yellowstone River, and a safe and comfortable place to just sit on the balcony and watch our amazing wildlife critters both large and small :) I am grateful for your visit and any future visit(s)!
We loved our stay in Gardiner! Bonnie Lynn was very helpful and was a great resource as I planned our trip. The home overlooks the Yellowstone River and is a short drive from the National Park. Thanks so much for letting us stay! We will be back!

Thank you Mallory for taking your time to write your very welcomed VRBO review. Please know it was my honor and pleasure having your stay and being a resource in planning your trip. I definitely welcome all your future visit(s)!!
Beautiful home with amazing views and close to Yellowstone enterance
Bonnie Lynn was a wonderful host. She communicated well leading up to our vacation giving us fun activities to do in Gardiner knowing the North entrance was closed to the public. We loved sitting on the expansive deck and watching the wildlife come into the yard. The location was perfect as it was so close to town. We loved our stay!

Thank you for your family visit! Thank you for trusting me that you would have the best accommodation while enjoying and experiencing the wonders of Yellowstone. Yes, the chalet location is unique in that it provides for comfortable and safe experiencing of our precious Yellowstone wildlife from the chalets decking east to miles along the Yellowstone River, west to the National Forest, and directly south viewing into Yellowstone Park. Your last sentence “We loved our stay!” is among my treasures and is why it is my passion to share it! Please know that I would be honored with your return visit(s)!
Amazing! Bonnie was a great communicator and we loved the place! Great views from every window, fantastic kitchen, and more wildlife than we saw in Yellowstone. We also watched 3 bald eagles down in the river in front of us. Thank you Bonnie for such a great time in your wonderful place.
The chalet was immaculate! Very clean. Well appointed. It had everything you need for a great stay. While we didn’t cook much at the chalet, it had everything we could possibly have needed if we did. The chalet was very convenient to Gardiner with a dirt road that went straight to the town and North entrance to Yellowstone. We enjoyed driving the dirt road and often preferred it to the main road due to the wildlife we would see while driving the road. The views from the chalet were amazing! It had a big wrap around front porch. I only wish it would have been warmer when we were there so we could enjoy it more. The chalet had a lot of upscale features like motorized shades, gas fireplace (very cozy on cold mornings) and premium appliances. The host was amazing and always available to answer any questions. She was very proactive with outreach and provided us very helpful information ahead of and during our stay. I would rate the chalet 10/10 and would not hesitate to stay here again if we are ever back in the area.
Holy Cow, right on the border of Yellowstone park..!! The views from the upper deck were amazing and it was nice falling asleep to the flow of Yellowstone River at night. The place is super clean, feels brand new and the gas fireplace was perfect..!! 5 stars for sure for this fantastic location.
Ut has been a wonderful week in Bonnie‘s home. The house is located right on the edge of Yellowstone Park and has everything you dream of. Nice interior, fully equipped kitchen, and rocking chairs on the porch. Bonnie is a very nice host and a great person! It was a pleasure to have met her! We‘ll be back!!!
New home. Excellent amenities. Small details everywhere. Kitchen best ever. 4 adults max. You'll love it.

Gary, thank you for your excellent Chalet review! Yes, great for 2 couples with the two bedroom suites ... and XL twin bunk beds for 2 children ... although, I have young at heart adults wanting to experience the top bunk :) The bunk stairs make it easy :)
Thank you for mentioning the excellent amenities and the best ever kitchen as that is very important to me!
My family has both stayed at and owned many vacation rentals. This home was by far one of the cleanest and well appointed homes we have had the privilege to stay. Bonnie has an eye for detail and a personal touch offering insights and suggestions for exploring Yellowstone. The location is perfect and serene after a long day exploring the park. Absolutely recommend!
This home is so impeccably clean and cozy. We had everything we needed and the property has amazing views from a very comfortable deck. We had elk visit every morning and saw itters in the river. This home is even better than the photos. Thank you Bonnie for having us!
We stayed at the chalet for 5 nights and was an absolute fabulous vacation. Accommodations were clean, modern, comfortable and all with views of picturesque Yellowstone/Gardiner area. Bonnie Lynn was very welcoming and communicative with us and offered her help and recommendations for anything we might have needed. The nearby elk, bison, antelope and osprey welcomed us as well, and we even got to hear the elk bugling right outside the bedroom window! Was such a great stay in a fantastic home in Gardiner MT...would highly recommend to anyone!!!
