Location: Paradise Valley, Yellowstone, Montana, USA (30 mins to Yellowstone National Park; 15 mins to Livingston)
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 3-6)
This 2000-square-foot home sits on the Yellowstone River in the true heart of the aptly named Paradise Valley, right along the "Miracle Mile" between Mill Creek and Pine Creek. There are truly no better views of Paradise Valley than those enjoyed from this home. Even old time native Montanans rave about the views from the backyard. A quick 30-minute drive to Yellowstone National Park to the south, or 12 minutes to the genuine small-town feel of Livingston to the north.
Three bedrooms and two-and-one-half baths await you, but the living space is done no justice by such a simple description. The huge master (over 500 square feet, with king-size bed) has a spacious sitting area with a pair of indoor chaise lounges to enjoy that book and the views away from the kids, but still able to view them playing in the gorgeously grassy backyard.
The two remaining upstairs bedrooms, both decorated with brand-new furniture suites, are both appointed with queen-size beds, and colorful, European bedding. These two bedrooms share a full bath loaded with such nice touches as ample, new, plush towels and a few toiletries to make you feel at home immediately.
To make sure every beautiful Montana day is followed by a great night's sleep, all the home's mattresses are brand-new Sealy Posturpedic; each topped by a fluffy down comforter.
Green Acres has a large living area with commanding, breath-taking views of the Yellowstone River and the 12,000-foot Absaroka Mountains. And for your after-dark entertainment, there is a satellite-equipped TV, VCR, and DVD; as well as a component stereo with CD and cassette player. A massive stone wood-burning fireplace completes the area.
Like to eat some meals more casually, and others more formally? Or perhaps separate the kids from the adults? No problem! A dining room area, complete with new, Swedish contemporary dining suite to seat ten and an equally new Swedish country breakfast nook table to seat six flank the upstairs kitchen. Fully stocked with 22 sets of dishes, multiple glassware styles, and flatware, the kitchen shows that we keep our renters in mind.
A stocked spice cupboard, specialty cooking tools, multiple pots and pans, and knives that actually cut can make your in-home meals fun. And everything from placements to cloth napkins and napkin rings to glass candlesticks mean a romantic meal is well within reach, despite being in the heart of Yellowstone Country.
Prefer to cook outdoors? There is also an oversized gas barbecue grill on the deck with a table to enjoy a dinner or drinks with the ultimate view.
But wait, there's more!
While the thought of you spending a single minute attending to business makes us want to rescue you, we recognize that communications continuity is sometimes a necessity, even while in Paradise. We offer free domestic long distance calls on our house phone, and unlimited high-speed internet access for two computers.
An extensive professional landscape surrounds the home, with 10,000 square feet of luxurious sod to take that nap while listening to the river. A five-person hot tub awaits you to take in the last light against the mountains. A regulation horseshoe pit provides old-time fun while you take in the views.
We know the little things can really make a difference... so, there are two coolers and two daypacks for your excursions, binoculars for your deck-viewing of bald eagles and such, a popcorn popper for staying in, a VHS library, simple games and toys for the little ones, and books to read--from fiction to local area lore and guides, to literature.
Walk right down to the river to fish... some of the best fishing on the Yellowstone is right from this home (JT has personally caught 15 trout in an hour here).
Yellowstone National Park is only a 30-minute drive away, short enough for day trips, so you can enjoy your home away from home every evening... it stays light until 10:30 PM here in the summer!
Only five minutes from world-famous Chico Hot Springs.
