Ted we loved hosting you and your family. So happy that our property manager was accommodating. There is so much more to see and do and we hope you come back soon. We hope you are enjoying the rest of your retirement adventures.
This is the third time we have stayed at this property, and they never disappoint. The location is wonderful, not too far from Yellowstone, and still remote. Just what we wanted as we live in large cities.

Thank you for staying with us again Judy. We love to host your family. So much to do, yes we are remote enough to get away from it all, but within minutes of YNP, restaurants and outdoor activities. We do hope to see you again soon.
We are pleased that our house was perfect for your needs. We try to make everything accessible for everyone at every age. There is so much to do and see. We look forward to hosting you and your family again. Glad we had the cribs for the little ones.
Beautiful house! Elk Run was perfect for our Yellowstone vacation - close enough to the park but far enough from the crowds to give peace and quiet. The layout of the house is perfect for families and it was very well stocked. Tanya was a wonderful manager and responded quickly to any questions.

We loved hosting you in our Elk Run Ranch home. So happy that you had a wonderful time exploring the area. There is so much to do and see, yet if you are in need of some relaxation, this is the perfect place to experience that too. We feel our property manager, Tanya, is the best. She is very knowledgeable about the area and she has many suggestions on what to see and do with the amount of time you have at our home.
Beautiful property! All the amenities you need. Beds are comfortable and there are plenty of pillows (I always think you never get enough). We will definitely come back to this property. Perfect for families.
Please fix master jacuzzi and perhaps entertain a gas fireplace? Chilly in the morning.

Thank you for staying at Elk Run Ranch. We enjoyed hosting you and your friends. The jacuzzi in the master bathroom works fine and you are always welcome to turn the heat up on cool mornings. We hope you come back and enjoy more of the Wild West and Yellowstone National Park.

Great, quiet location with all the amenities you need for a vacation near Yellowstone. We enjoyed grilling on the front porch and the views from the balcony.

Thank you Greg for your review. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
This is a wonderful place with awesome views House is very nice and clean Would definitely stay again Danyalle the property manager was very helpful!!!
The property and cabin were amazing. The cabin was salacious for the size of our party, and was very nice. The property was perfect. The property was very peaceful with plenty of land to explore. We spent a good bit of our time just walking around the property and exploring. Communication was also great. Everytime I had question, Carol would always provide a sufficient response and gave us some great ideas, which was great especially since this was our first time to Yellowstone. I would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed hosting you and your family. We love to share our MT home with everyone. There is so much to do and you have so much more to see. We have over 100 acres to explore the wildlife, look for geodes and pertrified wood. Not to mention so close to the Yellowstone River for all your water activities. We look forward to your next visit.
We loved our stay in this beautiful home! It was perfect for our family of 8 with lots of room to spread out! The kitchen was well stocked and the amenities were modern and up to date!!
House was beautiful, spacious and cozy. The views from the house were incredible, as was the area around the house - lots of wildlife and vista viewing right nearby! Convenient distance from Yellowstone’s north gate and cities like Livingston and Gardiner which had plenty of groceries, good restaurants, and anything else we needed.
Would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful Home in beautiful area
We enjoyed the home very much while staying here during our visit to yellow stone. The porch is great and home mixes modern amenities with the back country feel and sanctuary of remote living. Was quite a joy to have spent the time there thank you!
This home is even better than pictured! Large rooms, beautiful views and stocked with everything we needed. Plenty to do in the area but also a great house for quiet and relaxation. Highly recommend.
Pictures do not do this place justice. The views are absolutely amazing. Our family had such a great time. We loved seeing the wildlife and just sitting out on the decks and enjoying all the views.

Thank you Kyle for your review. We appreciate your kind words. We look forward to your next visit.
Haven’t taken a family trip since 2020 and this place was truly magnificent. The moment we arrived, we all fell in awe of the place and it was breath taking. The house, both inside and out, were so neat and beautiful and we really loved it. Plenty of space and room for 7 and very close the Park! Will consider rebooking in the future!

Thank you Larry for staying at our MT home. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to hosting you and your family in the future.
Gorgeous home beautiful views plenty of room inside and out . Home was everything we needed for our vacation . Close enough to Yellowstone it was a short drive but away from the “tourist scene” . Would love to go back in the winter .
This house is spectacular. The deck is amazing with views on all 3 sides. Great location - private but easy access into Yellowstone north entrance or for fishing on the Yellowstone or even just hanging back and relaxing enjoying the quiet.The yard was beautiful. We stayed for 4 nights and wish we stayed the week.
