Gorgeous view and convenient location
What a splendid property! The location is amazing being so close to the park and right on the river. The home itself is tastefully decorated, which is relaxing in itself. We brought our four kids and we did pretty well with the sleeping situation. It was a bit challenging for the six of us since one of the two toilets was out of commission while we were there, but I'm sure it will get fixed before the next guests arrive. All in all, it was a refreshing, beautiful stay.

Great location and views
The location is right at the entrance to YNP and very convenient! The home was clean and walkable to town. The kitchen was stocked and everything was cozy and clean. I do wish the shower had more than just a waterfall and a handheld nozzle. I got my hair wet every single time I showered and this is not convenient for a woman. A normal adjustable hardware fixture would be preferable. The shower is very big and nice. The owners dog came and visited a couple of days, so that was a nice surprise. The view is beautiful from the deck and the kitchen window. We saw elk running through the river and the neighbors yard and a bald eagle from the kitchen window. The electric fireplace in between the kitchen and living room area provided plenty of warmth. There was plenty of space for the 3 of my little family and I believe a family of 4 or 5 would fit very comfortably. I would definitely stay here again, but will note next time that we will go when it is not off season because there were only a couple of places open for dining out, gifts shops, etc.

Water House has the perfect view!
We enjoyed the view of the river and watching elk from the deck daily. We cooked on the gas grill daily and were grateful for the opportunity to do a few loads of laundry during our visit. Stop by Yellowstone Perk for an excellent cup of coffee or latte when you don’t feel like making your own cup with the traditional 12 cup Mr Coffee machine. Yellowstone Perk was closed on Tuesday, so we tried Eats Cafe and enjoyed it. Both places also serve food. Stop by the home before going to the market. The host has stocked the home with more essentials than are traditionally offered at rental homes. Finally, we appreciated the ease of using the North (Gardiner) Yellowstone Entrance. It was very convenient and quick. Yellowstone hint- get to the most popular sites no later than 9 am to get a parking spot and avoid crowds.

Thoughtful details, incredible view of the river, everything one could need and a kind host. Sooo close to the entrance to Yellowstone but more enjoyable than staying in the park. We would definitely stay again!! Next time we would stay longer and enjoy the hot springs nearby, raft the river and add another hiking day in the park.

It was a bit warm sleeping with no AC but opening the windows to let the cool mountain air in at night was helpful. Fans in each room were provided.
