gorgeous house! Nice and bright and clean and well maintained. Host was exceptionally attentive and routinely responded to communication within the hour if not faster.House was in close proximity of the park boundaryOnly draw back on the house was the speed of the wifi. It was very slow. the connectivity was easy, but we couldnt stream anything and were unsuccessful in our attempts to project shows onto the available screen. Definitely still recommend,

Loved this VRBO! The host was amazing and called me and quickly responded to any questions. Thank you for having Montana flour for us to use - we went to the store just to get more ingredients to make pancakes and use the flour hehe. It was very peaceful and quiet in that area. Last night we were there I saw a moose run by in the very early morning! So amazing and beautiful!

The location was perfect. An easy 10 minute drive to West Yellowstone and the entrance to YNP. The layout of the house was perfect with the master on the opposite side of the other two bedrooms and bathroom. Large laundry room and even a full size cooler to use for our long days in the park. Sunsets over the mountains were spectacular. We couldn’t find a few things and the host got right back with us. Thanks for a fantastic stay.

Our family of 4, with 2 young adult children, had a wonderful stay for 4 nights while visiting Yellowstone. This beautiful home was so comfortable and clean and very well stocked, especially the kitchen. We also appreciated a nice sized cooler to bring along to the park in the day. The drive into the park was very easy as well. We really liked being a bit out of downtown West Yellowstone to enjoy the peace, nature and to see so many stars at night. The deck out back was the perfect place to relax in the afternoon and stare gaze at night. The home, as stated, does not have air conditioning, which I was a little concerned about comfort, but evenings cooled down significantly and it was the perfect temp in the home at night. The owners were very responsive to any questions as well. And after communicating to the owners after our stay that the twin beds felt worn-out, they responded back that the beds were immediately replaced the week after we left. We highly recommend this property and would eagerly return to stay here again if we’re fortunate to travel this way in the future. Would love to see the area in the winter!

The place was great and very cozy! Loved the soft sheets, big shower, well equipped kitchen and the view. It was also so close to West Yellowstone that it wasn’t a big deal to run into town for something.

Our group travels a lot and we all agree this was one of the cleanest and most well appointed places we’ve stayed. It was extremely comfortable- we felt at home right away. We really enjoyed the location that was calm and not loud or busy, but also close enough to West Yellowstone to be convenient. We would absolutely recommend!
Our cute morning visitor.
