About this property

Mini-Moose Cabin, 20+ min from Yellowstone!

Great wooded privacy, quiet, backs up to Gallatin National Forest and only 15 - 20 minutes to West Yellowstone and the West Entrance of Yellowstone National Park! This cabin is ideally suited to accommodate two adults with two to four children (Note: Groups including more than 2 adults require owner notification and approval prior to booking). If looking for a rustic, mountain-modern MT cabin experience, this is it! Cozy and comfortable and rated 5-Stars! Pet-friendly!

The Mini-Moose Cabin is a recently renovated/upgraded cabin which backs up to the Gallatin National Forest on a quiet dead-end street and only 7 miles from the West Gate of Yellowstone National Park. The area has views of Lionshead Peak and the surrounding mountains of the Continental Divide, as well as the massive Doug Fir trees of the forest. It has 750 sq ft of living space, including 1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom, Laundry Closet with stacked washer/dryer, Large Open Family Room/Dining Room, Kitchen plus over 300 sq ft of covered side and front porches to enjoy the beautiful outdoors! This cabin is ideally suited to accommodate two adults with two to four children.

Specific sleeping arrangements are as follows: MBR=Queen bed plus twin bunks, LR=Queen sleeper sofa

Decorated in a rustic mountain cabin theme with both new and antique furniture, fixtures and household items, the cabin features circle-sawn Douglas Fir flooring with knife-drawn edges, reclaimed barnwood wainscoting, knotty pine walls/and ceiling, wood burning stove, large windows throughout to enjoy the mountain and forest views, covered front and side porches, etc. And don`t let the size fool you - this is a VERY comfortable open-spaced cabin with some of the best mountain views in the area!

For large family or friend gatherings, we have other rental properties immediately adjacent to the Mini-Moose Cabin - e.g., the newly constructed Lazy Moose and Mountain View Lodges! If interested in renting one or more of these properties during the same calendar period, be sure to ask about our `Village` rates!

Also if interested, please ask about our referral arrangements, including horseback riding, trout fishing, hunting and snowmobiling.

Lastly, if you notice a gap in our calendar between existing bookings which is less than our minimum number of night stay requirement and are interested in renting within that `gap`, please contact us and we`ll do our best to accommodate your request.

Spring 2020 Update: Each of our properties is cleaned per the latest Health Department and lodging industry guidelines to inhibit the spread of Covid-19! (Please note that our Covid cancellation policy is whatever policy Airbnb adopts).

Great stay!

We simply loved our stay at the Mini Moose. It was close enough to Yellowstone to be convenient for park access yet also removed enough for us to feel isolated from civilization. The full kitchen was great and the kiddo loved the bunk bed.
