Wonderful time

We had an amazing time at the 3Lazy H. It was clean comfortable and relaxing. A great location to enjoy Yellowstone. JoLynn was such a wonderful host and we couldn’t have asked for better communication. We especially loved the brownies that greeted us at the door and the Elk in the yard. We would highly recommend and hope to be back soon.

Yellowstone

This was a great place to stay, minutes from the Yellowstone gate. Spacious inside with full kitchen and bbq grill outside. Much better than staying in a small cabin or hotel, like having a home to come back to every night.

Fantastic stay!

This is by far the nicest place we have stayed. The house was clean, spacious, newly updated, and we had a family of elk that visited us daily. Hosts were personable and friendly. The host had warm brownies and a kind note welcoming us! We would love to come back again!

Wonderful place in Gardiner

We had a great time staying at 3 Lazy H. It was a great launch point for our daily trips into Yellowstone. The home was clean and very well stocked. The owner had even made us a dessert for when we arrived. She answered my questions ahead of the trip very promptly, and quickly resolved one minor issue during our stay. I strongly recommend staying here.

Yellowstone Vacation

The rental was perfect for our trip with 5th and 7th grade grandchildren. The rental is walking distance to everything in Gardiner and the grocery store is especially convenient. The entire unit is very comfortable and the kitchen is especially nice. The boys actually requested to eat at the rental instead of eating out.

Awesome Home and location

JoLynn is a great host!! You are only a couple of minutes to Roosevelt Arch. About 5 miles to Mammoth Hot Springs, the park headquarters are there. The home was especially clean, all the dishes and utensils you need. Wildlife (elk and deer) are in the yard often. 2 blocks to the grocery and post office. We would stay there again!

We stayed in Gardiner for 3 nights. The property was very clean and just as pictured. The beds were extremely comfortable and the house had everything we needed for our stay……the fresh brownies were a wonderful personal touch! Jolynn was an amazing host and super fast in responding to any questions we had about the area. I would most definitely recommend staying here if you’re looking for a place to stay while in the area.

Amazing

We stayed at 3 Lazy H Yellowstone Lodging for 5 nights and the accommodations and the town of Gardiner did not disappoint! The property was perfect for our family of 5. Very spacious and clean and had everything we needed for our day trips into Yellowstone including coolers and bear spray. JoLynn was very helpful and responded quickly to any and all of our questions. We enjoyed the town of Gardiner it had everything we needed from restaurants to gift shops to rafting on the Yellowstone River but was also quiet and peaceful. Highly recommend.

Very convenient location and clean

The property is VERY clean and conveniently located just about 5 minutes from the entrance to Yellowstone park. It is a great base if you plan a family trip to Yellowstone park. Kitchen had everything we needed. Communication with the owners was easy, as they live on the second floor of the same house. You get your separate entrance and a big parking spot right next to it. The only thing we did not find was a recycling bin. Overall, very good experience and we would stay at this property again.

About the host

I've been a resident of Gardiner since 1999. I love this beautiful small mountain town. I spent 15 years working for the Gallatin National Forest as the developed recreation coordinator.

He currently manages the bison quarantine facility along highway 89. You will see these bison if you drive north from Gardiner 7 miles. We are happy to answer any questions you have about the area or if you are looking for a great place on the National Forest to get away from the hustle and bustle of Yellowstone. Please let us know how we can make your vacation experience a great one!
