This cabin is located only 10 miles (10-15 minutes) from the West Entrance of Yellowstone National Park and is in the closest subdivision to the border of Montana and West Yellowstone. Since short-term rentals are restricted in West Yellowstone this is one of the closest places to the West Entrance of Yellowstone that you can rent on VRBO! Being so close to the entrance of the park means you will spend less time driving to and from the park and more time exploring all the amazing sights and attractions Yellowstone has to offer.
Our cabin is professionally cleaned after each stay. Our cleaning service is all inclusive and will take care of garbage removal and all cleaning. Unlike other rentals we will NOT be asking you to take your garbage to the landfill, and we will NOT have a list of cleaning tasks for you to do before check-out. Our main goal is for you to have all the time to enjoy your vacation and we want your check-in and check-out to be easy and hassle free!
Snowmobiling: Winter-time is the perfect time to rent snowmobiles! We provide them at a discounted rate on our website.
The discount code will be sent to you once the booking is confirmed. Please make your booking and you can pick up the snowmobiles at our central location near all of the trails.
ATV/UTV Tours: We also provide ATV/UTV tours. Since you are staying in our Cabin, you can book with us directly at a price of $160 per person. Just send a quick message and we can set it up.
The closest ski resort is Big Sky Resort in Montana, just about an hour’s drive from the cabin. Many guests also enjoy cross-country skiing and snowshoeing right here in Island Park or at Harriman State Park, which offers beautiful, groomed trails in a peaceful setting. We’re also about 2 hours from Jackson Hole and Grand Targhee — giving you access to three of the best ski resorts in the country, all offering world-class terrain and stunning mountain views.
We are highly rated hosts who are committed to providing our guests with best possible experience. This cabin is the result of over a year of hard work and we look forward to sharing it with you! Come enjoy your vacation at our home away from home!
Guest access Entire Home
Other things to note This house can accommodate small medium size trailers below 20 feet. You can park at the Henry's Lake Gas Station and ride your snowmobiles up to the property.
Please note that the location is at an elevation of 7,000 ft, where weather conditions can be unpredictable and snowfall may occur at any time of the year. We recommend arriving well-prepared for changing weather conditions.
Please note that the cabin is located in a natural forested setting and shares its environment with local wildlife. A professional pest control service is used regularly; however, occasional sightings of insects or small animals may occur. These are a normal part of staying in a wooded, rural area and do not qualify for refunds.
Prior to arrival, guests will be asked to review and agree to a separate rental agreement outlining these details to ensure clear expectations for a smooth and enjoyable stay.
Please note that our home is located in a rural area, where summers are typically dry and dusty. It is very common to have dust, debris and cobwebs on the decks and outside areas in spite of our efforts. Also, fire pits may not be usable due to fire restrictions.
Also, road and other constructions are passable in neighboring properties, and we cannot control what neighbors or county do on theirs lots and properties.
The outside of the cabin maybe be different from the depicted photos based on the season, sunset and more. This is a high altitude and forested area and the landscape changes immensely from season to season. This is not a city dueling, and as such the meadows and landscaping around the cabin will change throughout the season. We ask you to take note of this before booking.
Allergy Disclaimer: While our home is professionally cleaned before each stay, we cannot guarantee that it is completely free of dust, fragrances, pollen, or other allergens. Guests with severe allergies, asthma, or chemical sensitivities should carefully consider this before booking, as we cannot guarantee an environment entirely free of potential allergens.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Chris’s description of this property as well as location was spot on. It is great location not only to access West Yellowstone entrance but to other outdoor activities within Island Park. Chris went above and beyond to provide information about places to go and eat. My family absolutely loved this place. I highly recommend this place.
This property is so amazing! We stayed here for 3 nights while we visited Yellowstone. The house is glorious and Chris was a great communicator who was gracious. This house is so perfectly stocked and welcoming.
Our time at this home was very comfortable. There were six people and everyone loved the beds. The common areas in the living room had place for everyone to sit. Your massage chair is amazing after long days of hiking. The hot tub was fun and very warm. Mike you did an amazing job communicating with us. Our stay was fabulous!
Beautiful home with beautiful views. The kitchen was well stocked with everything a cook needs. Communication with Chris was above average . Any questions were answered immediately. Would highly recommend.
Excellent host! He stayed in touch and gave us all the tips and tricks to make our stay great. Cabin was amazing as well as all the extras. Overall an incredible experience at an amazing location. 10/10
The cabin was great and the host was awesome to work with. We were snowmobiling and made full use of the hot tub and massage chair. Everything was clean and well kept will definitely be back!
We had an amazing stay at this cabin! It was the perfect place for our family to relax and enjoy our Yellowstone trip while celebrating our daughter’s 6th birthday. The cabin was very clean, comfortable, and well cared for, and it had everything we needed for a stress-free stay. We especially loved how peaceful and relaxing it was after long days of exploring. Traveling with kids, parents, and grandparents can be a lot, but this place made it easy for everyone to feel at home. The hosts were wonderful to work with and truly made us feel welcome. We highly recommend this cabin to anyone visiting the Yellowstone area and would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for helping make our family trip so special and memorable!
The cabin was excellent! Furnishings were great and the kitchen was well appointed. Communication was great and Chris provided plenty of information about activities and tips about visiting the area including restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay. Would definitely come back.
Great location to stay near West Yellowstone area and entrance to park. The house was very nice, quiet, and comfortable. We enjoyed cooking and spending time on porch by the fire. The house has beautiful views to relax by.
This place exceeded all our expectations. We all loved it. Welcoming hosts, fun common areas, comfy beds, and everything we needed for our stay. Wonderful!
This property is in a fantastic location with incredible views. All of the amenities you could want and then some.
