Silver Willows Ursa Cabin on 4 Acres by the Creek

We loved our stay at Silver Willows Ursa cabin. The cabin has everything you could possibly need to feel the convenience and comfort of home. The kitchen is well supplied with everything from tools to spices. The bed was comfortable and it was nice to have plenty of towels. We were grateful for the supplied laundry soap to do a couple loads of laundry as it was very convenient after getting dirty from miles and miles of hiking. We enjoyed watching movies at night from their large selection to choose from. The host was very communicative, friendly, and easy to contact. We even saw a few friendly foxes and beautiful blue jays out the window. We will definitely be back and choose Ursa cabin again!

We rented both cabins next to each other, they were very clean and welcoming.

Felt like home Everything we needed We will be back

Awesome place and secluded. Love that it is away from anything touristy and super close to the Yellowstone entrance. If you want to see bears and other wildlife up close this is the place to be. Looking forward to coming back in May

Ursa cabin made our family’s visit to Montana and Yellowstone extra memorable. Every detail at the cabin is thoughtful—from the fully equipped kitchen to the most comfortable beds to the heated bathroom. This is a truly special retreat and so close to Lamar Valley for early morning wildlife viewing. Would recommend without reservation.

Cabin was well stocked and comfortable. Convenient to YNP. Saw deer in the yard.

The cabin exceeded expectations! The location makes for the perfect launching off point for Lamar Valley. Jenn & Max are amazing hosts! Our daughter had a medical emergency during our time in the area, and Jenn & Max were incredibly accommodating and helpful!! We will be back. Thank you!

Thoughtfully designed, comfortable and perfectly located for NW Yellowstone fishing and exploration. The cabin was fully appointed with everything one could need. Especially appreciated well appointed and stocked kitchen as Silver Gate restaurant offerings are thin. Much prefer Silver Gate vibe over that of busy touristy Gardiner. Check out the Beartooth Highway heading east and the national forest magic in addition to Yellowstone.

Our stay at this mountain cabin was an absolute dream, and I can't recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, the serenity of the location was profound. Tucked away amongst the towering trees, the cabin felt like a private, secret paradise with a few cabins just near enough to create the safe feeling of neighbors just in case. The soft, melodic sound of the creek just steps from the porch was a constant, calming soundtrack to our entire trip. We spent hours on the deck, sipping coffee and simply listening to the water rush by, feeling any lingering stress melt away.Inside, the cabin was immaculately clean and incredibly cozy, with all the thoughtful touches you could want. We felt completely safe and secure the whole time. This is the perfect retreat for anyone looking to truly disconnect and find peace in nature.

Loved the location, the best area to see wildlife in the park.

Place was as advertised, clean, tidy, and beautiful

Beautiful place. Very well stocked! Cabins nearby but it’s laid out so we didn’t see anyone! Mountain View’s are nice. Spent evenings on the porch (with sweatshirts). Loved it and hope to go back!

This cabin was exceptionally clean and very well stocked. The kitchen was beautiful and equipped with newer, modern amenities. We brought coffee, extra toilet paper, paper plates, and other basics—but there was no need. The hosts had thoughtfully supplied everything we needed (aside from perishables).The living area had a comfortable new L-shaped sofa, and the bed was also very comfortable.A few things to note: the listing description could use an update. There were cabins on three sides, separated by a few trees. Due to overgrowth, we couldn’t see or access Soda Butte Creek from the cabin, which was a disappointment. It wasn’t clear which parts of the four acres were available to explore, as cabins seemed to occupy most of it. Out of respect for the privacy of neighboring guests, we didn’t wander far. It appeared that two neighboring cabins had creek access.That said, we would definitely stay here again. Silver Gate’s proximity to Yellowstone is unbeatable—we never waited more than two car lengths to enter the park. Most mornings we entered around 6 a.m. and drove straight in. Lamar Valley was quiet and peaceful at that hour.Also, don’t miss the Beartooth Scenic Drive—absolutely breathtaking!

It was an amazing 5 days at the Ursa Cabin and Yellowstone, and we were not ready to depart!! The cabin was so comfortable, quiet, beautiful, with all the comforts of home. The surrounding scenery was phenomenal, and the wildlife did not disappoint! We leave with several stories & highlights, and many pics and videos!!

We absolutely love the location and convenience of this property. Easy access to NE Yellowstone region. Well stocked kitchen for most cooks needs. Comfortable

We stayed 5 days in September, the cabin is well appointed, comfortable and clean. The ladder to the loft could be an issue for some but I don't know how it could be laid out any better. A great home base for exploring Yellowstone. We were not able to find a trail to the creek, it was overgrown/could use a weed wacking. Not a big deal since the weather was not ideal for outside sitting. We did enjoy the front porch when we could and loved seeing the lone bison come by. There are neighbors but we did not see or hear anyone. The other cabin on the property is near but there are trees in between, so no issues with privacy. I would recommend this property to others.

I spent 4 nights in this house a short drive down a gravel road from the highway. There are several adjacent properties but all are partly screened by trees and it is a quiet neighbourhood. The inside of the property has comfortable and good quality furnishings' and appliances and is very clean. It is about a mile from the entrance to Yellowstone National Park, and this is one of the quiet entrances so no waiting in line!. I greatly enjoyed my stay here and I would happily book this property again.

A really nice place. Not as secluded as it looks in the pictures, but it’s a small little town and everything is just kinda all together. The cabin is really nice and homey and has everything you could need for cooking . And you will want to cook because there isn’t much as far as restaurants go. But it’s by far the most beautiful entrance to Yellowstone.

The home is clean and welcoming. We very much enjoyed the full kitchen and made sure we stocked up on groceries in Bozeman which was great advice. We wish that the place was more private and easier access to the Soda Butte creek, but certainly peaceful spot.

This property is on my top 10 of VRBO rentals (and I rented many vacation homes in MT over last 20 years)! Despite the close proximity to the highway running through town, you barely hear the vehicle traffic noise. The access to and wading accessibility on Soda Butte Creek is great--reason for my stay here and this area (FISHING!). The cabin was top-notch (and larger than anticipated from the pictures). Very modern, yet great rustic feel. Love the covered porch facing the treed meadow and creek (wished it was a little more cleared of the trees to be able to see the creek and mountains more--but still very relaxing space). Impressed with the owners' prompt responsiveness to questions prior to arrival and their welcome call night of arrival. My only comment, and it is a suggestion and not complaint, is that the ladder up to the loft is a bit unnerving. It is at a very steep angle so easy to climb up but getting back on ladder and down was a careful challenge. It may not be so bad if the ladder was pulled out more at bottom to give more of an angle like a staircase... One final comment which is a minor complaint (and suggestion): replace the charcoal grill. In sum, rent this property. I did a lot of research for lodging in Silvergate and Cooke city area and saw the other properties/lodging properties once I got there. This is a must rent--far exceeds other options.
