What a great cabin! Everything was just as described and we had everything we needed. We loved the location and our kids loved all the space and the bumper pool and foosball tables. Donna was a responsive and helpful host. Thanks for a great stay at the Scruffy Beal Lodge!

Nana's 60 the B Day

Our intention was to visit both Yellowstone/Grand Teton National Parks. Provided a great mid point between both parks. With the whole family being together, cabin provide sufficient space for the entire family. Grand kids enjoyed the bumper pool and foosball tables very much. Would love to stay again with the family or even friends.

Wonderful Weekend

This cabin was very clean and comfortable. It was well stocked with all the necessities in the kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms. Plenty of parking for guests’ vehicles. Lots of trails for riding ATV’s. We also bought some cheap float tubes before arriving and floated the nearby river. Plenty of activities. Communication was good. We would definitely return.

Perfect!!

Chris was an exceptional host! He kept in contact with me before the trip giving me very valuable information. It was nice knowing these things before our arrival. The house was very well equipped with things we wouldn't have even thought of. Comfortable beds and pillows...thermostats in each room which was nice. Be sure to go to Mesa Falls and Big Springs while in the area. Can't say enough good things about this house! Loved it!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The cabin was exactly as described and very clean. We loved the stocked kitchen and it made making meals so easy. Donna was also great and easy to communicate with. Our luggage was lost and she was so helpful! We will definitely stay here again if we come back to Yellowstone/ Grand Tetons.
