Really amazing place! We enjoyed everything about the place and it was so well stocked and clean. We enjoyed the stars from the deck, fly fishing the Yellowstone River, and snuggling up on the couch. Such a perfect property!
Property was everything that was listed! Great place. One thing that could have made it better was having an earlier check-in. For the price and only getting to check-in at 5pm was a bummer. Other than that, it was awesome!
Wow!! What a location! What a view!! It took our breath away. We were 6 adults and four children and we all enjoyed exploring the property and the river! The cabin was cozy and comfy! The upstairs game room was a big hit and the sleeping arrangements were great. The kitchen and pantry were well stocked and we loved driving into Gardiner and Yellowstone for four days!! A highlight of our trip!
The cabin is very beautiful and clean close to Yellowstone Park. The only thing I think should made be more clear is that the access in winter is not easy. The driveway is extremely steep and was a little slippery with the snow.But we had a wonderful time once we got into the cabin, very clean and well stocked. I had some issues to change the temperature with the thermostat, but the wood stove made it warm and cozy.
Beautiful cabin on side of mountain overlooking the fields below and the Yellowstone River. Each morning and evening we were greeted with dozens of elk in the fields below. Wildlife abounds around the area and Yellowstone National Park conveniently located close by to enjoy all the area has to offer. This is undoubtedly one of the best rentals we have ever seen. The host was great and responded promptly. I would most definitely book this cabin in the future and hope I have the opportunity to do so. Great, great home.
This is an amazing property along the Yellowstone River. The property is as described. We stayed in the summer and it was hot - there is one air conditioner in the living room. You can walk down to the river - we did walk down & fish. We did see some baby snakes & it's pretty rocky, so we did wear our sneakers. The town is very small but the general store has everything that you will need (we stopped to stock up on the way through Livingston). Elk walked through the fields each night & the sunsets are beautiful! This is a great spot to stay for entering the North entrance of Yellowstone National Park - we went for two days out of our trip and it was amazing as well. The only thing I missed was a crock pot or Instapot to pre-make some meals after some long days of fishing! Enjoy!
