Family vacation with young adults

The house was cozy but allowed us room to spread out. Everything was in working order, clean, and well kept. We were within walking distance to everything in Gardiner. Highly enjoyable stay.

Excellent location

Location was excellent for day trips into Yellowstone being so close to the entrance. Plenty of places to walk just down the street for food, shopping, or just to visit the many shops. We did the white water rafting trip and it was also very close. Would stay again and would recommend. Host is very responsive with any questions you may have.

A stones throw to the park entrance! Perfect little getaway for our family. The home is cozy and comfortable with fun decor from the past! The beds are super comfortable and the wood burning fire place was the cherry on top! Easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, and shops.

House had musty mold smell that effected our allergies. Dishes were dirty and we had to wash everything first and sanitize counters. Hot water didn’t even give for 2 showers. Toilet didn’t flush real well; had to hold handle down and flush various times. Communication was good. Landlord responded quickly. Location is ideal.

Family Vacation in Yellowstone

This property was the perfect way for us to spend several days in Yellowstone. It was so fantastic to be able to spend days in the park and still have a "home" to come to and spend time as a family cooking meals and playing game in the evening. The property was clean and well kept and had everything we needed and then some! Terry was fantastic about communicating whenever I had questions before arriving as well as making sure we knew how to access the property when we arrived. Would absolutely recommend this place for a family looking for a cozy home while exploring the park!

Yellowstone Trip

This house was perfect for our Yellowstone trip. The location right outside the Northwest entrance made going into the park each day so easy. In addition, many of the restaurants and shops are walking distance from the house too. The house was well stocked with amenities.

Great house. Perfect for visting Yellowstone.

We loved our stay. The house is so close to the North Entrance of Yellowstone. Everything was as the listing said. Beds were comfortable. The fenced in yard was nice. Love the views of the mountains out the windows and from the yard. We has Elk right in the yard daily which was so neat. We definitely recommend this house. Was perfect for our family.

Convenient and comfortable

Clean and comfortable, allows pets and has a fenced yard. An excellent location for exploring Yellowstone National park. Furnishings are interesting, with books and knickknacks. It is in town, across the street from an eatery that can be a little noisy, but didn’t bother us. Elk wander around the town, and one got into the fenced yard, which was startling, but it did eventually leave. The house was just what we needed for two couples and two dogs.

Great location but creaky

The location is great for Yellowstone. The area is close to restaurants and shops. You are expected to wash and dry the towels before you leave which I wish was explained prior to booking. We didn’t mind doing but wished it was stated upfront. The house floors creak and the doors creak and need to be slammed to shut which makes it hard to move about without waking others. The host communication was great and everything was clean. Lots of available towels.

About the host

Hosted by Terry Wilks

I was the manager of the westernaire motel & trailer park in Gardiner mt. for 9 years now and my husband and I decided to invest more then just time into the community. this is are investment we chose, we lived and worked at the motel 1/2 block from the property. and are working at upgrading this investment regularly.Now we just work on the property.

Why they chose this property

my husband retired from the military & police work and wanted to spend his retirement here so we chose something we know and like to invest in are retirement. The Yellowstone area has so much to offer for so many different interests.

What makes this property unique

This unique property and central location are a great asset to us and the folks that stay with us. It has been kept up, and with my husbands keen eye upgraded, & we will continue to make the most of upgrades to provide a superior visit for our customers. It is much more beautiful then the pictures.
