This was a great place to stay so close to the park entrance. It’s also a great place to stay. If you want to stay away from the crowds, we especially enjoyed watching the large herd of elk that stayed around the cabin area. Would definitely stay there again.

Don't hesitate. Book the cabin. It sits right on the Yellowstone River and has elk all around you. Beds were comfortable and cabin clean. You are only a short drive to restaurants and the North entrance to the Yellowstone National Park. We would definitely stay here again!!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The property was very well equipped and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The location was also excellent, close enough to Gardiner to make getting into town quick and convenient while still feeling peaceful and away from everything.One of the biggest highlights for us was how incredibly dark the sky was at night. With so little light pollution, the stargazing was fantastic and really added to the experience.Overall, this was a great place to stay while visiting the Gardiner and Yellowstone area. Comfortable, convenient, well equipped, and a wonderful spot to enjoy the night sky. We would definitely stay here again.

We loved the home and the location. Host was very thorough in their instructions, which I didn't fully read, so I was confused at first when checking in, but they were gracious when I called and didn't sound annoyed! Views of the river were awesome, and the kitchen was well stocked with the right amount of cooking utensils and good knives! Our family of 5 had an excellent time!

It is a very nice house, with beautiful views of the river and the mountain. We enjoyed having dinner outside—it was summer, so it was still daylight—and having barbecues. Staying near Yellowstone is expensive, and this was a great opportunity to stay in a house, enjoy time with our friends, and not spend too much. It is also very close to the north entrance of the park.

Very comfortable, beautiful place for our family. So peaceful to sit on the deck and watch the water & birds. I read some review that said it was difficult to find - we did not have any problem finding the cabin - it was worth the ‘out of the way’!! Thank you to the owners for sharing this property.

We really enjoyed being near the river. It’s a beautiful view and my son got to fish every day so that made him happy! (Didn’t catch anything but saw a beaver and kept him occupied). There is an elk herd that hangs out nearby. The road is very easy to navigate and well cared for. We were in a minivan and had no problems at all. The cabin is pretty much just like the pictures and we found it to be comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed including some condiments. It was perfect for our family of 5.

I love that your son had a great time. Those darn beavers moved in last fall and have felled several trees along the riverbank - making a great habitat for them but not for the property or riverbank stability. We are working with the MTFW services to relocate them. I thought we had been successful but they've moved back in. :( Thank you for the feedback. We'd love to have you back in the future. The local elk herd is pretty amazing - especially when the come visit at the property. :)

Stay at property was good. Suggest having hand soap available in bathrooms for guests.

Response from VrboOwner on Jul 19, 2025
I appreciate your feedback but this is not a hotel. We do provide hand soap for each bathroom. We do not provide YOUR hygiene products. If you desire those items, I do strongly suggest a hotel. Nowhere in our listing does it indicate that those items would be provided. Everyone has their personal preferences and allergies, as well as sensitivities to smells - it's not worth it for us to provide those. Never have and never will. We do provide you with coffee and filters - soooo....idk that seems like a fair trade.
