We had an excellent stay while on a ski trip at Big Sky! The cabin had everything we needed and perfectly matched the posting description. A would recommend and stay again!
We had a great time at this authentic cabin. The scenery was beautiful, right in the river, and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again.
I loved my Gallatin River cabin accommodations. Close enough to Big Sky resort and a couple local bar/restaurants while still feeling like an adventurous mountain experience.
Really enjoyed our stay, had all the amenities and strong wifi. Always warm and hot water.
Highly recommended for a ski trip. Great location riverside !
Loved this property. It was perfect in every way. It was fully equipped. It was very cozy, beautiful views! Would highly recommend! The host was very responsive, very nice!
We loved the cabin! It felt remote even though it was close to skiing and just a little further to Yellowstone. Staying at the cabin was the centerpiece of our family holiday trip. Beautiful river surrounded by snow and stars.
Great place with all the amenities to enjoy time away and easy access to the surrounding areas... Kitchen fully stocked, hot water shower, stove keeps the heat all night. We enjoyed using it as a 'home base' during our MT/WY adventures.
Stayed here for 4-nights on a skit trip. Just a great little cabin in a beautiful location. Fully equipped and cozy. Peaceful location with river right out the front door.Easy, scenic 30-minute drive to Big Sky. 10-15 minutes from Riverhouse for great dinners. The Corral not far away either for drinks and dinner.
The location was amazing so beautiful and just secluded enough that it was a perfect get away. So much to explore right in the backyard. perfect size for two adults, everything you need is just a short drive up to big sky. Would book again!!!!
The cabin was clean, beds comfortable, and the kitchen had all you need to fix meals. It also stayed remarkably cool even in 85 degree days thanks to the shade from yhe trees. Simply gorgeous area surrounded by the mountains and woods.It made for the perfect basecamp during our trip. 40 minutea to yellowstone, about 15 to Big Sky the other direction, and numerous local trail heads anywhere from 2 minutes to 30 minutes away.Highly reccommend if you're ever in the area.
This is a great little place. Beautiful view out in the front deck. Could have used a TV for background noise but it was a nice change. Would stay again. Feel like a true Montana stay rather than at a resort that feel corporate.
We loved the cabin and the location. It was very quiet. There is a small resort across the river but we hardly noticed. Also, it’s close to a lot of amazing hiking trails, whitewater rafting, and fishing. Highly recommend!
Super cute, clean and nice. We stayed in the winter. The wood burning stove is a cool touch and everything was as we thought. One note for folks coming in the winter is that the parking is a bit away from the cabin so you need to lug your luggage and food through the snow, which may not be easy for everyone. Happy traveling, nice place!
We loved the simplicity of this rustic property. We didn’t need more than it offered, and we liked being so close to the river. The price was reasonable and the daily drive to Big Sky was not a problem at all.
Right on the water. Cozy cabin, amenties and cookware were nice, actually had spices in the cabinets. Porch was awesome to drink coffe in the morning and listen to the river run at night
