Excellent Property

I must say that the pictures do not lie with this property. It is appointed to a very high standard in a quiet location with views of the Tetons / Grand Targhee ski resort from the porch. The cottage was immaculate with every convenience provided. The location between both the ski resort and the small town of Driggs was ideal for me, with either one approx 15 - 30 minutes driving (in winter) . The owner, Lorelle, who has the home next to this cottage, was incredibly helpful prior to my arrival and answered any questions I had about the local amenities, driving conditions & providing useful information about the area etc... Which was great as this was my first trip to Targhee. All-in-all if you're heading out that way, I would highly recommend this rental.

If you are considering a trip to the Jackson Hole area, this should be your number one consideration for lodging. I have never stayed in a more lavish "cottage", and our host had just the perfect balance of catering to our every need while giving us perfect privacy and space. The pictures just do not do it justice! If there is something you think you might need and have forgotten, it's there....right down to the cooler for your picnic lunch to Yellowstone or that iphone charger you forgot. Our host was even able to provide knitting needles for us! Amazing! And I don't know how she did it, but on our last day, our host provided us the most incredible rainbow I have ever seen. The only thing you will regret about staying here is that you can't stay longer.

My husband and I spent 8 wonderful nights at this property -- Lorelle, the owner, not only has impeccably appointed this "cottage" (which is a gross understatement -- this place is more than any cottage I've ever seen!) with granite tiles, marble vanity, tapestry window coverings, stainless steel appliances and numerous thoughtful decorative additions. The views are fantastic, privacy is guaranteed. It's only 12 minutes into Driggs, which has a full service grocery store. Over the pass into the Tetons is a drive of which we never tired! The scenery is breathtaking. We will return -- without a doubt!

My husband, 12 year old son, and I thoroughly enjoyed our 6-night stay here - and wish we would have booked it for a bit longer! The home is so well-equipped and so lovingly maintained, we were able to just sit back and really relax and enjoy ourselves. The nearby town of Driggs has a great grocery store to get stocked up. Our son loved having the loft room to himself; a comfortable bed and plenty of space for him to feel he had his privacy. The cool temps at night were fantastic for sleeping, too! While the drive up to Yellowstone is about 2 hours, it was a beautiful drive. I highly recommend going up (or back down) on the east side of the Tetons for breathtaking views of the Tetons National Park, but the slightly quicker route is west of the mountains. Either way, this home base was so great to come back to each day. Enjoyed breakfast and dinners on the patio, but probably the best thing was seeing the moose in the creek near the end of the driveway. Fun! We have stayed at about 6 different properties through HomeAway, and this is definitely at the top of that list.

We've rented a number of VRBO properties and have never been disappointed. This property, however, was beyond our expectations! The owner thought of every detail to make our stay amazingly comfortable and relaxing. The owner was also extremely helpful in answering any of our questions regarding the area, things to do, places to stop, etc. We enjoyed many days of hiking in the Tetons and sightseeing in Yellowstone. Both parks are beautiful drives from the cabin. We also had a lot of fun hiking at Targhee Resort, about a 20 minute drive from the cabin. Long walks from the cabin were beautiful, as well! Relaxing on the porch after each day's adventure was a perfect way to end each day! The grocery stone in Driggs - Broulims has everything you'll need with lots of variety. Pretty amazing for a small town! The well-equipped kitchen made packing lunches for hikes and preparing meals quick and easy. It was fun to visit the Wednesday Farmer's Market in Driggs, as well, to pick up fresh locally grown fruits and vegetables. If you enjoy Thai Food, the Teton Thai Restaurant in Driggs is wonderful! Overall, couldn't have asked for a more relaxing and fun trip! Five star accommodations we'd highly recommend!

Just returned from a trip where my husband, 13-year-old son and I spent 4 nights at this beautiful cottage. It is even nicer than described and the pictures don't do it justice. It is incredibly well appointed - has EVERYTHING you could possibly need. The decor is really beautiful and stylish, and the cottage is very cozy and comfortable. Our son thought the loft was his own little "apartment." The views are stunning and it is so private. It is so quiet - it added a new level to being peaceful. Make sure you go outside at night so you can see the stars - it was beyond breathtaking. I expected this place to be nice, based on what I read and saw in the photos, but this is one of those rare places where you get so much more than you were expecting. You did a great job, Lorelle!!! I would recommend this cottage to anyone, of any age.

This property is clean and well-maintained with state-of-the-art modern kitchen appliances. The owner was glad to help and loaned us a book on hiking trails. Tony's Pizza and Teton Thai were outstanding places to eat. We would recommend this cottage to any couple who enjoys playing in the mountains.

Cannot imagine what would have made our vacation any better - pictures do not do this cottage justice, for sure! The property is beautiful, the cottage is beautiful - loved everything about it. Thoughtful amenities, like a cooler for picnics, coffee, spices, etc. and the little comforts of home were very much appreciated. A bit of a drive to Yellowstone but what a gorgeous drive it was--drove it almost every day and enjoyed every minute. Very clean, decor was lovely--hope to return in not too distant future. Excellent grocery store nearby and also enjoyed O'Rourkes. Thanks, Lorelle, for sharing this awesome place. (Nana was a bonus!)

My husband and I celebrated our golden anniversary by coming to this lovely location. We were looking for serenity, scenery, and respite from the oppressive heat of a Louisiana summer. We found all that and more. The countryside is beautiful, and the cottage itself is exquisite. Lorelle is so gracious to share this gem with others. It is our fondest hope to return.
