  Rentals rarely embody the ability to support what can be a beautiful total vacation experience. This property, with the architecture, features and location, provided my family with a home that we could thoroughly enjoy the experience of Yellowstone and surrounding areas. It is a place of peace, of clean comfort, and free of distraction. There is a heart to this home...one that is now part of our hearts.

  It's a perfect spacious house for big family. We are total 9 people ages from 20 to 80. Our family stayed 4 days in this house. It was exactly what it was describe in listing. It was very relaxing stay after returning from site seeing of Yellowstone. Excellent cooking facilities. I don't hesitate to recommend this house as well as owner. Everything was there for all ages of people.

  We had a wonderful time in this glorious old home that wasn't like an old home at all. We had all the amenities needed and the house was upgraded beautifully. We had plenty of room for all of us (15 in all) and the yard was wonderful for the kids to blow off steam after a day at Yellowstone. The kitchen was large enough for several cooks and it was within a reasonable distance to Gardiner and Yellowstone. My only dislike was the road to the property was gravel. Minor inconvenience compared to the home itself. Having the laundry was a lifesaver with 7 children in tow. Cell phone reception was terrible in the area but it was great to have the wi fi available so everyone could keep in contact if need be. We would love to come back again.

  Owner response: A drive that might lead you to lots of grazing animals is the Old Yellowstone Trail South (the gravel road you mentioned) that takes you to the town of Gardiner. I’ve seen lots of buffalo, elk, mountain goats, antelope, deer, foxes and bears. Other vacation home owners recommend this road to their renters because some times you can see more animals here than in the Park. MZ

  This house is over 100 years old, but is extremely well maintained inside and out, with modern appliances and not a creaking floor to be found. We easily accomodated two families and 9 people without needing to use the extra room and beds in the attic. The beds are of very good and solid quality, though we would have appreciated firmer pillows (a minor quibble). Wireless internet worked flawlessly and was easy to set up on multiple devices. It served as a perfect home base to explore Yellowstone - it's a 12 minute drive to Gardiner where you can get everything you need to manage the household. Going back and forth was no trouble at all. The property management is straightforward and helpful, responding quickly to emails. Highly recommended.

  Owner response: Thanks for your review! When we remodeled the house (in 2006) we did buy everything new: furniture, mattresses, bedding, kitchen appliances, silverware, etc. The house was remodeled from floor to ceiling, that is why it looks like a brand new home. There are some firm pillows in the house, but I'll be happy to get some more. Gracias! MZ

  We were total 4 families/12 members wanted to visit Yellowstone. You can enjoy Yellostone, but a good stay is a definitely a plus during your visit to Yellowstone and this one house was a perfect example of that. We reached there during night hours so everything was just dark, but when we woke up next morning, it was just awesome..........Could not ask for more on our first morning and the house was very well organized. As soon as we entered the house, everyone was like.WOW.......Children: WOW!!!This is such a big house, how many days are we gonna stay here? They were running all over the house getting acquainted to it........Ladies: WOW!!! This is such a neatly arranged house, there is everything we need in this house, great kitchen, large dining hall, and what not..............And we gentlemen were praising ourselves for choosing such a wonderful house.......It can easily accommodate 14 people as said on the web site........Gives privacy to every family........children have bunk beds, so owners have thought of everyone choosing to live there.........I would plan to visit it again some time in future and hope to get the same house again...........I wish all the best to Maricruz and thank for such a wonderful experience

  Our family stayed 5 days in this house. 10 people ages 2 to 72. It was a convenient base for seeing Yellowstone, and was a superb home to return to. Excellent cooking facilities. Lots of common room as well as private area. Would unhesitatingly recommend this location as well as the owner.

  The house is lovely, huge and clean. The location is spectacular, with local wildlife and views of both Electric Peak and Sepulchre Mountain. Thanks so much!

  Owner response: East of Electric Peak, across the deeply cut valley of Reese Creek, lies Sepulchre Mountain, so called from a mass of breccia on one of its high northwest spurs, which resembles a sarcophagus. The mountain rises to a height of 9,600 feet, and stands isolated from the surrounding peaks, from which it is separated by geological faults and also by deep drainage channels. It is composed of volcanic breccias and massive lavas that form a body of rock 3,000 feet thick, resting on Cretaceous and older strata. The southern and southwestern slopes of the mountain are rounded from the action of the ice which has passed over the mountain from the Gallatin range. They are mostly covered with grass and sage brush, and present comparatively few rock exposures. This is also the character of the hills and ridges southwest of the mountain, which lie east of the fault at the base of Electric Peak, and form part of the geological body of Sepulchre Mountain.

  "We have returned to the Historic Home after our first stay of July 2009. Once again, we felt at peace at this beautiful home. We felt very blessed and fortunate to be able to spend with some of our children and grandchildren and to make this 4th of July a very special one. Thank you for letting us share this lovely place that we care for so much!"

  A lovely place and so close to the Park. The amenities were wonderful, so comfortable and an-at- home feeling. We had a very happy time here, and thank you so much for your hospitality. If we ever are so fortunate, we will stay here again. We found everything and more than we needed for a comfortable stay. P.S The Park is gorgeous too as are the grounds surrounding your house"
