    Everything about our stay was perfect; from the floor plan, tasteful and cozy decor, responsiveness of host (above and beyond), location, amenities and supplies. I would certainly stay here again and recommend it to others.

    Where do I start?The house is absolutely beautiful. You can definitely tell that it was recently built. So many areas for people to hang out. Upper living room, living room down in the basement. Extremely well stocked more so than any other vacation rental I have ever stayed at. So porcupine in the front yard mule deer in the backyard. Hot tub was a great amenity. Would stay here again without a doubt. beds were comfortable and just the whole place was perfect for our large group of 11 adults.

    This place was fantastic! I cannot say enough about how clean and well stocked the hose was. In a quiet natural setting, it was nice to come home to every day. It was about 20 minutes into West Yellowstone but the drive was easy. Yellowstone was great but coming back here every day made this a wonderful vacation for my family.

    We had a great stay at Melvins Retreat. The property, layout, and amenities were outstanding. This is the perfect spot for exploring Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and other attractions in the area. I would highly recommend this property and would definetly stay here again.

    This place is awesome! I have stayed in several other rentals and this is by far the nicest place I have ever stayed. The house had plenty of room for the family to spread out and relax. The location was extremely quiet and peaceful. The house was extremely well cared for and exceptionally clean. The kitchen was well stocked with everything that we needed. If you are looking for a quiet place in nature, this is it. The road to the house is a dirt road but it is well maintained and easy to navigate. We will definitely stay there again if we go back that way.

    Property is clean and well kept with most amenities you would have at home. Host communicates extremely well and checks in to ensure home was accommodating. Not far from West Yellowstone. Would stay here again for sure.

    I was traveling with three family groups and this property was perfect! There are privacy options as well as great communal space. We never felt like we were on top of each other without a retreat. Finding a place can be challenging given personality types in my group that require extreme cleanliness and order, and Melvin's Retreat hit EVERY need and wish. Location was fabulous to visit Yellowstone. Communication was stellar. I have stayed at a local nice hotel when I have come solo to the area in the past, but would seriously consider paying the extra in the future for a couples getaway. It truly is one of those places. Debated slightly less expensive places for this trip, but glad I followed my gut to book this one!

    This property is amazing. Everything in the house was perfect. Not only was the house beautiful, it had all the amenities to have a great stay. It was very chilly in the mornings but we never felt cold because each room had a separate heater.

    We had 6 adults stay at the property. It was everything we hoped it would be. The house has all of the kitchen items we could have needed. We were able to have our own individual space. Loved the foosball table. We played it every night. The location to Yellowstone was perfect. We used the grill one night for dinner. We also saw some wildlife early in the morning right from the front door. Would highly recommend!! And would absolutely stay here again if came back to the area

    Very clean and spacious. The outdoor fire pit was a nice addition for s'mores one night. This was a perfect house for a family gathering. Close to Yellowstone and had everything we needed to be comfortable and felt really nice for a cabin experience.
