Blackhawk's Nest is an affordable lodging option for those adventurous travelers looking for a simple, no mess way to stay in the heart of Paradise Valley while experiencing Montana & Yellowstone National Park.
Our studio type unit is limited to just 4 people, ideal for 3 adults or a 4 person family with children. It is off the beaten-path with nothing but big starry Montana skies is how we describe this open floor-plan European, travel-light style accommodation.
This clean, cozy cabin is ideal for those that are traveling light and want an affordable, base-camp to explore, plan on eating their way through the local restaurants, and want a memorable place to shower, lay their heads and soak up the memories of their day in a safe and unique cabin at the end of a long day.
The NEST ACCOMMODATIONS:

LOCATION:
Smack-dab in the middle of picturesque Paradise Valley (half way between Livingston and the north gates of Yellowstone National Park)- views in all directions of the expansive valley and rising mountains of the Absaroka Beartooth Mountains and the Gallatin Mountains, you won't have an ugly view in your sites. The home sits on 20 acres with private undeveloped land surrounding and checker-boarded state sections of land. Wildlife is common here - mainly deer, pronghorn and elk. Beautiful night skies with abundant stars are guaranteed!
41 Miles to Gardiner (39 miles on paved road), 41 miles to the Bozeman Airport, and 17 miles (27 minutes) the heart of historic downtown Livingston.
DISCLAIMER: The gravel road into the property is bumpy and feels very long! It is only 3.2 miles from the turn off on Highway 89, but do be prepared to slow it down on some dusty gravel "back roads driving" roads, as you'd anticipate in Montana, the last best place!
There is a keybox on the side of the cabin for self check-in and check-out.
Garbage service is not available at this location, there are several places nearby to dispose of your bagged garbage, a map will be provided.
