Our recent stay was wonderful! There were so many aspects to love- the super clean accommodations, the location, the property(we loved the creek/stream), and the excellent communication with the host. We would definitely stay there again, if we were to return to the area. The close proximity to Yellowstone was also a real bonus!
My husband and I enjoyed our time here so much! Clean, beautiful house and beautiful property, equipped with everything you could need. We would stay here again in a heartbeat and intend to in the future! Thanks so much to the host for sharing your slice of heaven with us!
Great hosts. Michael and Teresa were very helpful. Michael told us about the grizzly bears at B Bar ranch up the road. A must see. We can’t wait to bring the family on our next trip.
We had a great stay. The place fully accommodated our entire family for Thanksgiving and a 5 year old birthday party. House is beautiful, very nice fireplace, comfortable furniture, comfy beds, heated floors, amazing scenery and huge kitchen. The bunk house is only steps away from the main house but offers privacy, ping pong table and its own bathroom. Outside is just as amazing, plenty of parking, small little ponds, great deck with fire pit and Tom Miner Creek just yards from the house. The place came with more options than we could use. We will be adding this to our list of places to stay in the future.
We absolutely fell in love with this lodge. There was so much space for everyone as we were traveling with a group of 8. Everyone was able to find something to do from fishing in the creek behind the lodge or taking a short walk to Yellowstone River, plenty of games, to sitting on the back patio with the firepit listening to the creek flow, or reading a book in the comfy hammock in the front yard. The owners have went above and beyond with their inclusion of little extras. From a well furnished coffee bar to including salt/pepper and oils to cook with. I always bring a suitcase for the kitchen and barely had to open it. We ate almost every meal in the lodge. The location is a quick 20 minutes to Gardiner which is a beautiful small town with lots to do. Gardiner is also one of the accesses to Yellowstone. We rent a VRBO every year on vacation and this was by far the best one we have ever had. Highly recommend!! We did see a bald eagle fly over every evening around 7pm- so beautiful. A deer greeted us in the yard our first night and she came back around during the morning a few days later. This place is where you want to be surrounded by nature. Drinking coffee and watching a deer bed down is almost unmatched.
