It’s hard to sum up just how wonderful our stay was. We have already made plans to book again! The hosts are nothing short of fantastic! Friendly, welcoming, absolutely wonderful people! We have never felt more at home! The only problem we faced was having to leave, because we desperately wanted to stay!

Wonderful touches in a beautiful setting

Tracy and Yoshi have thought of everything to take pressure off during a stay. Everything from zip lock bags and cling wrap to chap sticks to charcoal for the grill. The dryer stopped working during our stay and they replaced it immediately. Excellent communication and a wonderful visit.

Yellowstone jump off

This was the cutest cabin! Just a couple of miles from the park entrance. Beautiful view from the front porch/yard. Elk sighting every day from the cabin. One even walked right through the yard while I was enjoying my morning coffee. Tracy was an awesome host!

What a Gem!

Let me start off by saying, if I could give more than 5 stars in all categories, I would. This sweet cottage was perfect for our getaway and Tracy and Yosi provided everything one needs to enjoy the property as well as the area. The home is so comfortable with hotel-quality towels and bedding, plenty of dishes and cookware, comfortable seating both inside and out and luxury touches throughout. The property is perfectly located, just a few miles from town and the entrance to YNP. The cottage was impressively clean and Tracy was quick to respond to all our questions. I cannot say enough good things about this cabin. It is perfect for a couple or a family. I will be recommending it to all my friends. Do not hesitate to book it for your trip to visit Yellowstone and the surrounding area!

Cozy, Peaceful Cabin

Tracy and Yoshi's cabin just a few minutes outside of Gardiner yet provides a peaceful setting from which to enjoy the front porch and evening's sunset. We were greeted by a lovely hand-written note and some wonderful small gifts featuring Montana Huckleberry. The kitchen is well equipped and contained basic kitchen supplies. The rooms are comfortable for our party of 4 and the remodeled ensuite bath was very well done. The 2nd bedroom top bunk is close to the ceiling, so our grandson chose to use the sofa bed instead. The town of Gardiner was a quick 5-minute drive. Access to the park is a bit more difficult since the floods of 2022 - a 15-minute drive up a winding road may try one's patience - but the 3-to-4 miles backup I encountered on the entrance road from West Yellowstone is no better.

RockinY is located in a great hillside position overlooking the valley around 20min from the North Entrance to Yellowstone. The facilities were as described and Tracy welcomed us in person ensuring that we had everything we needed and giving advice on where to buy groceries etc. We enjoyed the tranquillity and were delighted to be greeted some mornings by the local elks!

Tracy was great. Everything we needed was there and then some. We loved watching the elk and listening to them every day. We woke up one day and they were in the yard!!! We spent a hour running between windows watching them!! It was a added bonus!The location to the park and Gardiner was perfect! Sunrises and sunsets were amazing. Thank you for sharing your home, Tracy!

Quiet mountainside location

This cabin is just as described and a nice quiet location out of Gardiner. It’s a quick drive into town and then right into the park. We loved how peaceful it was to sit out by a fire at night. We had elk up the hill right behind the house one evening! The owners are very nice and helpful with an issues like my child locking us out of a room. They were quick and friendly about resolving it when it was clearly caused by my kid. I recommend this location as an alternative to staying inside of Yellowstone. The north entrance is way easier to enter through than if you stay in West Yellowstone. The amenities here are better a hotel. They even had bug spray and bear spray for us to use while we were there. I was happy not to have to rent or buy bear spray to hike in the park!

This place was perfect! The house had everything you needed and even a few extra bonuses: ice chest to pack lunches while traveling to the park, stream in the front yard, TONS of Elk roaming the property, and a beautiful view. If I ever visit again, I'm definitely staying here.

Cabin in Gardiner

We had a great 4 night stay! A cozy cabin! We cooked out using the charcoal grill twice and it was terrific - eating outside on the picnic table. The porch was great for coffee in the morning and wine in the evening! Location was great with an easy drive into Yellowstone, horseback riding ranch and rafting! We loved our visit! Also a great treat to come home one evening to a herd of elk!

I came across this Lodging by chance and booked for my family and with another family.We were simply flattered by the detail care taken by Tracy to ensure all the necessary accessories were being provided.The location was a laid back,soothing with a small creek running in front of the house. We highly recommend to others this house.Conc: AC could have been provided. A small fence around the house so that we may not encounter any wild animals. House is literally at the base of a small hill.
