    Great house. Three couples stayed for 5 nights. We appreciated having our own bathrooms. Plenty of space to gather inside or outside to enjoy each other’s company. Close to town and the parks. Would stay there again.

    Cabin was perfect for our family vacation to Yellowstone. Communication was very prompt and any concerns were addressed immediately. Our favorite part was our morning coffee with the momma and baby moose! (Also highly recommend eating at the Buffalo Bar or the Slippery Otter and making time to stop at the discovery center!!)

    We had a group of five staying at this lodge, and it truly exceeded our expectations. The place was spotless, well-stocked with everything we needed (they even provided bear spray!), and the location was unbeatable. We spent each day hiking in Yellowstone, and the quick drive to the West Entrance made it incredibly convenient.The hosts were friendly, responsive, and made us feel very welcome. This is a must-stay spot for anyone visiting the area. Our family agreed—it’s one of the best vacation rentals we’ve ever experienced!

    The cabin worked out for our Yellowstone vacation with 2 other couples. The house was clean and close to Yellowstone. By renting a house we were able to cook one night, keep groceries for picnicking in Yellowstone and eat good pizza in town.

    Our family stayed her for Christmas and could not have asked for anything better! The cabin is absolutely beautiful and has everything you could possibly need. It’s close to town and feels like you’re in a real life snow globe!!! Already wanting to go back! The host was amazing and very responsive. Even went the extra mile to get us a Christmas tree for when we got there!

    The cabin was lovely, and had plenty of room for four adults and three teens. It was well-appointed, and there was nothing we needed that we couldn't find handily when needed. It is more geared for an indoor stay, since it the backyard isn't easily accessible or setup for use, which was fine for us after long days exploring the park.

    This 3 bedroom, 3 bath A frame home is exactly as described. It is well equipped, very clean and comfortable to stay in. Please note that there is no air conditioning as I’m sure it’s not normally needed in Montana, but when the afternoon sun hits the tall windows, it warms up fast. The pictures show a charcoal grill, but there is a gas grill there instead, no need to buy charcoal like we did. A few of the windows wouldn’t crank open, and we informed the owner so he could get them fixed. Beautiful area!

    I would highly recommend the mountain lodge. It was perfect for my family which included our 10 year old and grandparents. There was plenty of room for all. The hosts are the best! Very responsive but no need to contact them because the lodge is in great condition. It is a quiet, peaceful setting but only a short drive to West Yellowstone and the National Park.
