    Our group travels a lot and we all agree this was one of the cleanest and most well appointed places we’ve stayed. It was extremely comfortable- we felt at home right away. We really enjoyed the location that was calm and not loud or busy, but also close enough to West Yellowstone to be convenient. We would absolutely recommend!

    My husband, 3 boys and dogs had a wondeful stay here! The ranch, complete with garage was SO easy to unload our gear and let the dogs out. It was the last stop at the end of our 5 thousand mile journey, and it was perfect. The home had wonderful wood detailing, a lodgey feel and beautiful kitchen. It was a bit dated, but that didn't impact anything. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and the back deck was perfect to enjoy mountain views and the wildflower river around the house. It was close to West Yellowstone and the West Yellowstone National Park entrnace, without being inside all the congestion and population. It also had a great rodeo just down the road and close to Lake Hebgen as well. The beds could be more comfortable, but that was our only negative. The check in was easy, everything was as advertised and the owner/management company was great to work with. Highly recommend!

    The property is located in quiet neighborhood, conveinent to West Yellowstone and the entrance into Yellowstone National Park. The house was clean and well equipped. It even came with a Moose and her new born calf in the backyard one morning. We highly recommend this property for your base into Yellowstone and surrounding area.

    Overall a very good property. Worked out well. It was a little warm so some additional fans would have been nice but no real complaints at all.

    The place was great and very cozy! Loved the soft sheets, big shower, well equipped kitchen and the view. It was also so close to West Yellowstone that it wasn’t a big deal to run into town for something.

    This home was gorgeous and the perfect fit for our family of four. Stocked with everything we needed. Beautiful views and nice neighborhood. Far enough away from the crowds in west Yellowstone but close enough to drive in to town or to the park and enjoy.

    Very easy to drive to the park from this location. House open with lots of light and good separation of bedrooms for two couples. Wish the arrival time was 4:00 p.m. instead of 5:00 p.m. instead of 5:00 p.m.

    The house was like home (the beds were so comfortable!) and had everything we needed. The location was great. Close enough to the parks without being crowded or touristy. Check out the view of the stars! There was also National Forest trails and fishing everywhere nearby. We went to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons and saw bears, elk, bison, eagles, and other animals, as well as amazing geological features.

    This hosts provided everything we needed to enjoy our stay in the Yellowstone area. The kitchen was well-equipped allowing us to cook most meals at home and they even thought to provide bear spray and bug spray! The furniture was very comfortable for lounging after a long day exploring the area. I would not hesitate to stay here again!

    It was not clear that the house did not have A/C. When we arrived to check in, the house was a steaming 80 degrees. All the blinds were open allowing direct sunlight making it feel even hotter. We immediately opened all the windows but it did not cool until 12:00-1:00 am. Cooking dinner was miserable. We reached out to the property management team who said there was a compressor on property but it wasn’t connected. We then asked if there were any fans to help with the heat. We only found one in a spare bedroom. We never heard back from the management team. The twin beds in the spare bedroom were awful. Absolutely no support and need replaced. For the amount we paid to rent this property, the lack of A/C and old beds was extremely disappointing. The property was clean and had sufficient kitchen equipment but the nonstick pans could also be updated. Overall it was an average stay. Being hot makes for an uncomfortable stay. I understand it’s Montana but the time we visited the temps climbed to the 90’s.

    The property was nice, it stated in book no air conditioning but we did not need it during this stay. Lighting above table dusty but otherwise clean. Windows in living are cathedral high so sun would be in your eyes while sitting on couch. It was very close to Yellowstone and convenient, great little town restaurants and shops.
