Worked out great for us, centrally located, turning left to go back to Bozeman can be a time consuming process, but you can loop back through 4 corners if needed
Worked in Bozeman used this Vrbo as a lodging. Place was great, clean, beds were excellent, plenty of space to have other couples with and have privacy, close to coffee and good restaurants.
Great scenery, close to palisade mountain waterfall, and Yellowstone. Would stay again.
Our family spend 2 nights and wish we will stay more House is absolutely beautiful, has so many rooms available, clean , comfortable beds, kitchen has everything you need including spices,organic coffee, Amazing yard with a beautiful trees, we fell in love with a horse ( stable behind the house), 15-20 minutes drive to downtown, so peaceful ( we even cancelled our plan to go out and cooked at home and enjoyed outside patio )Definitely will recommend and return if we will visit Bozeman again, Thank you !
We were there for State lacrosse! The house was very clean! Nice location! It has a ton of rooms and great for older kids with pool table , foosball. We would rent it again!
We can't say enough good about our experience at Rocking H. The kitchen had everything we needed. The bedrooms were set uo well and beds were comfortable. The hot tub - fantastic! We used the huge dining area over and over. Loved the huge windows andbthe incredible views. The neighborhood was great for walking. The hosts communicated frequently and wanted to make sure we had all we needed. We had a 10 out of 10 experience!
If in the Bozeman area, I recommend the Rockin H Ranch. It was close to everything and very comfortable. You might just fall in love with the friendly horse next door that loves pettings.
Had everything we needed. Was clean and well equiped for our band of skiers. Got good use of the pool table and hot tub. The recliners in tv room were great. Would highly recommend and will return again.
House was perfect for our needs. Good communication a lot of little extras like TVs in the bedroom and lots of supplies in the kitchen. Lots of spaces for gathering, playing cards, eating, etc. It worked perfectly for us. If available, we would book again.
Loved our stay at this folksy acreage home. Clean and comfortable. Hot tub sparkling clean. Fully appointed kitchen. Entertainment room in basement. Very dated decor - but that’s part of the charm. Host responded ASAP to our requests.
We had managers come to town for a meeting. I rented the house for them to stay. We all gathers for a barbecue in the evening at the house. It was so relaxing. Thank you.
Rocking H Ranch literally has everything you need at this house for a stay. Spacious, clean and very comfortable. Location worked well for Bridger Bowl (30 min), Big Sky (45 mins) & West Yellowstone (90 mins). Hot tub was great to come home to. Nice to have a garage for our vehicle. Reno was super respondent to work with. We will for sure stay here again.
Great size with all the amenities. Private and allowed pets. Did find a wine class in bottom of hot tub. No worries, but could have been dangerous. And oven had oven cleaner in it that wasn’t wiped out. The downstairs area was perfect for our teenagers to play pool and bring their video games. Stay was very enjoyable.
Excellent location for us between Bozeman and Big Sky
All was good ! Recommendations would be to add frying pan that does not cause scrambled eggs to stick - real pain to clean. Also the grill is no good for cooking nice steaks. Excessive flames. Otherwise all good !
Check in was easy, the home was better than anticipated. Fully stocked with everything we needed, the hot tub was amazing after a long day in the cold. Neighborhood was quiet and friendly. There was something for everyone in the family to enjoy. Thank you so much for sharing your home. We did a lot of outdoor adventuring and it was wonderful to come home to such a beautiful, relaxing home!
This place could not have been more perfect for us. It was exactly as advertised online.
It was only my husband, my son & myself, but it was so spacious it could have easily fit several more people.
The enormous front yard was wonderful for throwing balls for our dogs, and it was heavenly to see the neighbor’s horse in the back pasture.
The house came fully stocked with laundry detergent, fabric softener, toilet paper, paper towels, etc. that was much appreciated because I’ve stayed at other vrbos that only had very small quantities that ran out after a day or two. (And I never expect to have a surplus of supplies like that available to us, so it was a very nice surprise!)
The driveway was enormous- plenty of space to park our 24’ RV. The neighborhood was lovely- nice houses all with huge lawns. Nice neighborhood to walk our dogs in.
The location was exactly what we wanted. Nice & quiet, Just on the outskirts of Bozeman & easy to get to anything you could need or want.
It made us chuckle in the beginning of our stay because we accidentally kept turning into the street directly before our street. The wrong turn led us to the parking lot of a caramel company & we ended up buying a few big bags of Béquet caramels they were so good!!!
We would definitely stay here again!!!!!!!!!!
