About this property
30 Mins from YNP | Trail Access - Cozy Cottage
Cozy Cottage is a cozy one bedroom, one bathroom cabin that sleeps six guests that is conveniently located only 30 minutes away from Yellowstone National Park. The cabin also has perfect access to ATV and snowmobile trails right from the front yard. Located just 1 mile from highway 20, this house is easy to access but tucked far enough back for a secluded mountain getaway.
The Space If you're looking for a quiet mountain getaway, this two story cabin is perfect. On the main floor, there is a queen bed in the bedroom and the bathroom is just down the short hallway. The access to the bedroom is located off of the kitchen so it’s perfect for quick midnight snacks. Also included in the bedroom is a wardrobe to unpack into. The full eat-in kitchen with an open concept layout is perfect for gathering with family and friends after a long day exploring the beautiful Island Park area. In the living room, cozy up in front of the wood burning stove to watch movies and play games. Up the stairs in the loft, you will find two double beds and a window that overlook the yard to maybe even spot some deer or moose.
Amenities at the Cozy Cottage include a complete kitchen, toaster, basic kitchen utensils, dishes, microwave, smart TV, board games, pack and play, high chair, heat, wood burning stove, fire pit, free WiFi and garbage haul off. There is no A/C.
This cabin is in the perfect location for exploring the Island Park area. Within minutes from the cabin enjoy fly fishing excursions, a scenic game of golf, dinner at local restaurants or a relaxing float down the Big Springs River. Feel free to reach out for more information about local activities.
The Cozy Cottage is tucked back into the trees right next to popular ATV trails. This convenient location allows you to take your ATV's directly from the cabin to almost anywhere in the valley. The neighborhood is also very quiet but just a mile down the road from the Elk Creek Station where you can refuel and buy some snacks and firewood.
Visiting Yellowstone National Park makes for an unforgettable vacation. Our favorite stops during a drive through the park are Old Faithful, the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and Hayden Valley.

The proximity to the the west entrance to Yellowstone was exactly what we were looking for. The cabin met our expectations. Such a beautiful area with LOTS to explore!

I'm so glad you enjoyed the cabin! It was a pleasure to host your group!
Very clean and cozy. Communicaton was excellent. I got my truck stck in the mud and asked for help and they were there quickly and pulled me out so i could enjoy the rest of my vacation. I cant thank them enough.
Highly reccomend.
I had a very pleasant stay. Comfortable, quiet, open airy space. I enjoyed the wildlife art on the walls. The trees shade the cottage well. On a hot , high 80s full sun day the afternoon temperature in the cottage was cool and pleasant. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen worked perfectly for me, and the living area was great to relax after a long day of fishing. If it is available I will stay here again the next time I visit Island Park.

So glad you enjoyed your stay. I do hope you can come visit again.
As you know it is an amazing place to fish and explore.
Upon arrival the cabin looked abandoned due to overgrown grass and weeds overtaking property. We were not prepared for the uncommon heat that the region was experiencing. The first night was miserable.as there was 1- 28” fan and a 1 small one for my family of 4 to share. The next day we purchased another larger fan.
The listing said up to 6 could sleep here. Apparently, they truly mean sleep as there were 6 places one could sleep; however, with only 3 wash cloths I would not recommend. Thankfully we found wash cloths at a not too distant store the next day.
One reason we like to rent cabins over hotel rooms is we love doing a family breakfast each morning. There was adequate utensils, plates, and skillets, but not a kitchen towel nor dish cloth. There was a shriveled sponge that we were forced to use that first morning.
One day perhaps we will laugh about this overly rustic adventure but not today.

Letha, I live just a short distance away. I could have quickly brought you another fan and let you know the evening air is very cool so you just need to open a window to have fresh cool mountain air come in. I could have brought additional wash cloths also. Or just had you check under the sink for extras wash cloth and sponge.
Pictures show very clearly the sleeping arrangements, so I don't understand the idea they would be different than what is advertised?
lastly, yes, of coarse the "yard" has native mountain vegetation with tall wild grass. you are in the mountains not, a city with sidewalks and a lawn, just like the pictures show.
