Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Steve and I are both retired and loving every minute of it. Although, we often comment that we work harder now than we ever did. Steve is a Cowboy Action Shooter (SASS...single action shooting society). He dresses up like a cowboy, even has a cowboy name (his is Colt Heart) and gets to play with guns. We travel all over the western US where he competes. He loves it, and in fact, has gotten a lot of the family involved in the sport. One of our granddaughter's even received a college scholarship for her shooting ability. I dress up but prefer to be a "gofer" at the matches and help with whatever is needed. We have had the opportunity to meet some incredible people from all over the world who are also involved with the sport.
We built our cabin after bringing our children to the area year after year. It has been a family project and a true labor of love. We have tried to make our home a comfortable, feet up, relaxing place to be. We've tried to think of everything that we would want in a vacation home, even down to having a laundry basket in each bedroom closet, crock pots for cooking while touring, wood for the firepit and fireplaces and a beautiful lawn to play on. This is our dream home and we look forward to sharing it with you.

Why the Owner Chose West Yellowstone

We have been coming to this area since our children were little. We love it, and finally decided that we wanted something permanant. It has been a true labor of love...a family project..and a place that our children and now grandchildren love to come.

    • We recently vacationed at the Hebgen Lake Home in August of this year. The property was absolutely beautiful. We had extended family members join us and their was plenty of room for everyone. Our children enjoyed the grassy area around the fire pit, playing on the large deck around the house and the video/game room. The kitchen was great for cooking, especially for such a large group. The view of the lake is truly incredible. It is a great place to stay if you want to see Yellowstone. The entrance to the park was not too far away and you have the convenience of the little town of West Yellowstone if you needed to pick up groceries or stop for a bite to eat. Other family members enjoyed fishing on the lake every morning. We hope to have another family reunion/vacation at Hebgen Lake Home in a few years. Betty and her family were very pleasant and accomdating to our questions and any needs. We can't wait to visit again, Kevin and Cindy Manes

    • Betty and Steve, we stayed at your beautiful home with our family the week of August 1st of 2009. Kevin Manes, our son-in-law, worked with you on our arrangements. Besides enjoying our family vacation at your cabin, we wanted to thank you for allowing us to stay with our motorhome on the cabin grounds. Thanks to you, we were able to spend precious moments with our children, grandchildren and then meet up with our friends in West Glacier. Thank you so much for everything.

    • It is so nice to arrive at a place you've rented and be absolutely happy with your choice. We fell in love with Betty and Steve's log cabin home the minute we arrived. We couldn't wait for the rest of our group to arrive the next day. All the extra spices and staples in the cupboard came in very handy. We loved the view, the sunsets and the decor. My husband rented a fishing boat and tied it up in the cove right across the street. He hired a fishing guide for the Madison river - loved that too. We all enjoyed our trips into Yellowstone and the town of West Yellowstone (great shopping). We all thought the location was perfect - even the Longhorn Salon which is right next door. They had a nice band and great food. My husband was disappointed at first that he could not get an Internet connection - but actually it worked out good - he relaxed. We hope to go back again someday. Awewome memories.

    • We stayed in the cabin 8/30/08 to 9/06/08. This is absolutely the most beautifully designed and decorated home we have ever stayed in. Steve and Betsy (homeowners) are the absolutely nicest people you will ever have the privelege of meeting. Their generosity with items to use at the cabin are unsurpassed. Their love of this "home" and it is a home, is evident everywhere you look. The area in itself is absolutely breathtaking. I could write a book about our stay and this wonderful home. My only regret is there wasn't near enough time to do everything. There wasn't even enough time to do things available at the cabin (horseshoes, games, movies galore, firepit outside, a gourmet kitchen to die for & even makes cooking on vacation fun, etc., etc., ).... let alone the lake, surrounding area and Yellowstone. If you have an opportunity to go, and you want a reference, please call us. I only hope we have an opportunity to go again. The BEST VACATION PLACE EVER!!!! AND BEST PEOPLE TO RENT FROM!!! Bill and Jackie Westbrooks

    • This home is a great place to stay near Yellowstone. It is beautiful, both the home and the setting. It is very spacious and well furnished. It is also well supplied. There are little extra things that make the stay especially nice, like backpacks to use when hiking and a hammock to lounge on. The owners are very hospitable. We had no complaints, only lots of positive things to rave about during our stay.

    • Our families stayed at the Hebgen Lake Home from July 12th through the 19th 2008. The home far exceeded our expectation and was absolutely magnificent. Betty and Steve are great homeowners who were very helpful throughout our stay. It was obvious that their house was built with lots of love. Everyone in our group felt very much at home. This house has a perfect design for large groups and is very well furnished. The layout is ideal to congregate while still having enough areas to sit back and relax. The location of the house is spectacular being next to a beautiful lake and mountain just 16 miles away from the West Yellowstone entrance. The pictures on the website do this home no justice. Once we arrived, the entire group was astonished with size and beauty of the cabin. The amenities include a great firepit, huge sandbox, outdoor grill, and large yard in the back which our kids enjoyed playing soccer on. The lake is just a short walk away and we were able to rent a boat fairly easily. We even had the opportunity to do some fishing. It is fair to say that we will rent this home again in the future. If we were to rate this home on a 1 to 10 scale, we would give it a 12! Thank you again Steve and Betty for opening up your wonderful home to our family. If anyone has any questions please feel free to email us and we will give you an honest answer.

    • Yellowstone Family Vacation 2006 Our family of seven stayed at the cabin in July 2006 and had one of the most peaceful and refreshing vacations ever. The pictures of this cabin can not do it justice. It was breathtaking and even more breathtaking was the view from the cabin deck. This is the perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and each of us would highly recommend it to anyone. Whether you want an action packed vacation in Yellowstone Park or a quiet relaxing vacation fishing near the cabin, you will not be disappointed.

      Comments from guest book in cabin: People here are wonderful! All the rangers were kind and helpful. Betty and Steve were great with us and the town people were very friendly. We loved taking walks along Quake Lake and seeing the bald eagles. Our five year old asked, "why are we going home?" The house was wonderful. The kids loved the downstairs and we loved having some adult time upstairs. What a great place for 2 families
