Excellent little cabin in the woods!

Everything was just perfect! Quiet and peaceful location surrounded by trees, cozy and simple. The wood stove was a huge plus, we had it on every night! Great communication with Tiffany as well. We will be back for sure!

Family friendly cabin

We enjoyed the cabin - kids loved the playhouse in the yard and toys. It was well stocked with everything kids need. Had to be careful on the steps as they are small and steep but we figured it out. Was a bit of a drive in and out of yellowstone but the beautiful scenery made it go by quickly.

I’m glad you enjoyed your stay and the kids enjoyed it too! The kids play stuff is a hit for all kids who want to be creative and play outdoors! The scenery is so stunning it makes all the driving worth it ❤️. The stairs definitely are the reality of being a 1970’s cabin trying to make the most out of the space. It also adds a unique character to the cabin!

First Timers

We were so amazed with the property and our experience! It was close enough to West Yellowstone but also isolated enough from the world. The cabin was gorgeous, private, quiet and equipped with everything! When we go back to Yellowstone I am hoping this cabin is still available to rent.

Such attention to detail!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cozy Critter Cabin. Everything was well-marked and easy to find. Beds and furniture were comfortable; the weather was great so honestly we didn't spend much time in the house, but we had plenty to do and explore and keep everybody entertained while we were there. We will definitely recommend this to friends and family who are looking for a place to stay near Yellowstone.

Perfect for making memories

Our family enjoyed the Cozy Critter Cabin very much! The owners really thought of everything. There are helpful notes throughout the cabin, instructions on how to use the fireplace, TV, etc and notes about the amenities offered. Check in and out was easy. We didn’t need anything or have any questions during our stay but we knew the owners were easy to get ahold of if we had. Highly recommend!

Nice cabin but beware of stairs

Pros - Toddler friendly Cabin was clean Approximately 30 minutes to West Yellowstone Fully stocked Cons - The stairs are extremely narrow for adults and dangerous. We avoided booking some other properties since they mentioned that their stairs were narrow. This did not specify that and I fell down from the top of the stairs all the way down badly injuring my arm and affecting our vacation. Due to this, some others in our group did not even attempt to go upstairs and just stayed downstairs. If you have elder people in your group, I would stay away (I am middle aged).

I am sorry to hear you had a bad encounter with the stairs. We have had guests ranging from small children to adults into their 80’s and not had any issues that I’m aware of until now. The stairs are steep and narrow as was the normal practice of the 1970’s and I thought it was in our description, that has been rectified. It appears that part of our description only went onto some of our other platform listings and not our VRBO listing. Thank you for bringing that to our attention so we could correct it!!

We had a great week at this cabin as we explored Yellowstone and Grand Teton. Island Park is beautiful as well. It was clean and had everything we needed especially with us traveling from so far away.

Christmas

Tiffany was absolutely amazing at keeping in touch with me. The roads were closed on the day we were to leave and she let us stay longer. That location was great and the property absolutely beautiful. We hope to be able to stay there again soon!

Great location for families!

We stayed at the Cozy Critter Cabin for 4 nights with our 4 and 7 year olds. The house had so many nice touches for kids— a game room, toys in the loft, the outdoor playset— at times, we had to bargain with them to leave the house for the day! We drove into the park without a problem and enjoyed the drive back out to the cabin every evening. The highlight of our stay was the early evening visit from a moose while eating dinner on the back deck! We would definitely stay again!

Quiet & Comfortable

Great location for a trip to Yellowstone, close enough for day trips & far enough away to be quiet & not in the middle of the hustle & bustle of West Yellowstone. Very comfortable home & property. Beds & pillows were just like being at a second home. Kitchen is easy to move around in. There are little touches all over this home that gives it country personality. Our little girl was at first scared of the bear toilet paper holder, so we named him Rick the Friendly Bear & all is well.

Great place to stay in the Yellowstone area!

Only 25 minutes away from the west entrance of the Park. Very well equipped and cozy cabin. We enjoyed the nearby lake and the woods just outside the property. We would definitely recommend this place!!! 10/10
