About this property
Barnhouse at Slip & Slide Ranch
Quiet, peaceful…Montana at its best!
Our place is close to Yellowstone Park, right off Highway 89, only 11 miles from the North Entrance at Gardiner MT. The unique history of our home provides a perfect complement to the unique and beautiful setting.
The home is recently renovated on a historic ranch property owned by the Rigler family since 1908.
We are surrounded by public land providing great hiking opportunities. Although not on the river, a short trek across the road gives you private access for fishing on Yellowstone River frontage which is part of the ranch.
After a busy day in Yellowstone, relax on the front porch and watch the bison in our meadow a short distance from our vacation rental home.
The great room is an open space with living, dining, kitchen combination. The kitchen has a countertop bar and provides all the amenities to create dine in meals for your family. Large windows line the great room space providing incredible 360 degree views. There is a deck off the front and back of the home; the back deck has a Blackstone grill…you can cook breakfast outside as well as dinner…with a small table and chairs available for enjoying your meals outdoors. The front porch has chairs to relax and enjoy the mountain views in the evening.
The living room space has sofa, comfy chairs, and a Smart TV. There is also a game table for puzzles, cards or board games…all available in the home.
The dining room has a large log table with chairs. There is a fireplace in the open space with a gas insert. Safety is our priority with fire and CO 2 monitors throughout the home.
Bedroom one has a king bed and en-suite bathroom with walk in shower. Toiletries are provided for your convenience.
Bedroom two also has a king sized bed with a fiberfill duvet…which is sanitized after each guest.
Bathroom two is between bedroom two and three; it has a tub/shower combination. Terry bathrobes for guests are available in the closets in each bedroom.
Bedroom three has two twin beds. As this is a recently renovated property, all beds and bedding are new.
Finally, the 1800 square foot space provides a laundry room with new Maytag washer and dryer.

Slip and slide ranch was our favorite stay while visiting yellowstone. Its about 15 minutes from gardiner/yellowstone which is close enough to easily explore but detached enough to provide a very peaceful stay. Watching the sunrise and sunset from the property was a highlight of the day. Susan was a fantastic host and the house was clean, spacious, and well equipped for our stay.
We absolutely loved our time at the Barnhouse! It’s the perfect spot to explore Yellowstone as well as the many other outdoor activities nearby. The ranch itself offers so many interesting elements that even the down times are fun. Lots of wildlife on the property and nearby. All rooms were large and comfortable. Beds were excellent. The entire place was very clean and extremely well stocked. Host was extremely helpful and generous with accommodating our needs. Highly recommend. Hope to return!

Thanks so much Michael. It is s joy having guests like your family stay with us!
House was very clean and comfortable. It was a short drive to the north entrance of Yellowstone National Park. We enjoyed seeing the bison that live on the property. We also saw elk around the property each morning.
Our second stay at the property and we loved it just as much the second time around. We got to meet more of the family who owns the property and have found them to be very nice people. Can't wait to go back in the future.

Thanks Scott…also thanks so much for your kind words about Franklin. He enjoyed you folks last year…loved sharing stories about his family’s legacy. We miss him every day…
The home was very comfortable, clean and had all the amenities that we needed. All of the beds were very comfortable. The host was very friendly and responsive. We loved all of the history of the family. The four baby bobcats playing in drive one evening was an added bonus. We loved exploring the park each day and seeing all of the wildlife. Great place to stay! Would highly recommend the Slip and Slide Ranch.

Thanks so much! So glad you chose the Barnhouse for your Yellowstone adventure!
We loved everything about our stay at Slip and Slide Ranch. The house was perfect, and it seemed like they had thought of everything to make us feel at home. The location is perfect to access the park and we loved being just a few minutes outside of town. I would truly give our stay a 10 stars if it were possible.
We had a wonderful time at the slip and slide! It was very clean and had everything we needed. Very short ride to north Yellowstone gate! Perfect for us as a home base for Yellowstone!
We had a wonderful stay at the barn house! It was so clean and well-stocked! And the view was absolutely magnificent! We could not have stayed at a better place. Thank you!

Thanks so much Shannon! We were happy to host you!
We absolutely loved our stay at the Slip n Slide ranch! We visited Yellowstone during the day and enjoyed our time at the ranch when returning. The bison and horses were a trip highlight! Our host was more than accommodating and quick to respond if we had a question. The house is spacious and clean. We would highly recommend a stay at the ranch!
The barnhouse was a perfect “home away from home” for our trip to Yellowstone. It was conveniently located for Yellowstone and it was easily one of the best stocked VRBO rentals I have stayed in. Family is near the property and they gave us guidance on the area but never interfered with our plans. If you are think about staying around the north entrance to Yellowstone or just staying in Gardiner area, look no further, select this property for your stay. Livingston is also a nicely town to visit. Also, check out the bakery and bbq in Emigrant.
This was our second stay at slip and slide and was very enjoyable. The owner greets you and shares stories of the property and area, a real treat and a lovely gentleman. The space is comfortable and clean and well stocked. We look forward to our next stay.

Thanks so much! We will look forward to your next visit!
We stayed here and explored Yellowstone for a couple days. The home was clean and comfortable and we were very happy the home had AC. We would stay again!
The guest barn house is exactly as pictured, a wonderful stay. Hosts were communicative and we loved how close we were to the Yellowstone north entrance (about a 10 minute drive).
