Everything about this place was great. location and view were the best. The pictures don't do it justice. We had 8 people and it slept everyone very comfortably. We would definitely rent it again.

Buffalo Trace was a beautiful home in Gardiner, right outside the north gate to Yellowstone. We enjoyed local eateries and shopping in between visits to the park. Owners were very responsive. We had a little trouble getting in with the keyless entry, but we figured it out. The home was clean and well appointed. We would not hesitate to stay here again. Thanks, Kevin and Natalie, for sharing your beautiful home!

We enjoyed our stay and location was perfect for visiting the northern loop of Yellowstone. Great location to explore Mammoth Hot springs, Lamar Valley, Tower Falls and Canyon Village area to see Lower Falls and Artist Point. Kevin and Natalie were great host. They responded quickly to any request or question. Great places to eat in Gardiner were Wonderland Cafe and Back Country Bistro. If you decide to try Wonderland Cafe they close for an hour between 3:30pm and 4:30pm so there is a line waiting when they reopen for dinner and the seats fill up quickly. If Buffalo Trace is available and meets your needs book it. You won’t be disappointed.

Great location at North entry to Yellowstone!

Location is just a short drive to the north entry into the park, which was very handy. House had lots of bedrooms and bathrooms, which was necessary.
