Perfect Base camp for Yellowstone

Let's start with how cute the place is when you walk in and the fire is lit up creating a warm and cozy welcome for you. Overall, perfect spot for a large family and close to all the activities we wanted to enjoy.

Great cabin near yellowstone

We had an incredible time visiting Yellowstone and the surrounding area on the west side of the park. This cabin was perfect and had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant and easy. The check-in and check-out information was perfect and the owners were very responsive to questions.

Quiet and Cozy

Great place to stay that is quiet and mostly secluded. If it's hot outside, the upstairs area can be warm, but there are box fans available to set up. I'd still highly recommend staying here.

Very comfortable and nice stay

V stayed for 3 nights..party of 6 adults and 5 kids. Beautiful and clean log house. Many beds for kids on the top floor.. kids loved them. Backyard is not maintained but that's how the whole area is, but still good.

Lots of beds

It was clean and comfortable. It was only used to sleep in so I can’t comment on much else but it was easy to get to, and the toddler beds were adorable.

Great location & had plenty of space for a large family like mine. Lots of privacy due to being in a wooded area & neighborhood was quiet. Check-in was quick and easy. We had some issues with the water pressure during our stay but the host was responsive & sent out maintenance to fix the issue. Kitchen had most essentials to cook including a grill—although, would’ve been better if there was a bigger knife and cutting board for our grilled meats. The cabin could’ve been cleaned better & beds checked. Overall stay was good though. Property was 30 mins from the West Yellowstone entrance & made it very easy to spend the day out there & drive back. Lots of fishing & hiking in the area as well

Great Island Park Stay

Bears Den Cabin was wonderful for our family vacation in island park. Down the street from Macks Inn and Big Springs loop to go river rafting. 20-30 minutes from West Yellowstone. Only complaint - the on suite bathroom toilet had some issues flushing, float valve was sticking and the propane tanks for the bbq were both empty, grilled one night and the gas went out. Had to exchange a tank. Other than that our stay was great.

Had a nice time! Big enough for my large family. Small kitchen. I didn’t realize it had no AC and it was very hot upstairs, so I asked for more fans and they brought them to me which helped.

Yellowstone Getaway

Very welcoming! Nice and clean upon arrival! Comfortably fit 8 teens and adults. Love the proximity to West Yellowstone (less than 1/2 hour) and the scenery and recreational activities available in Island Park.

Truly Amazing

Such a beautiful area and well kept home. Cute fun at the Bears Den as the entire house has bear decor.. and guests leave notes about how many bears they found around the home. The fire pit was great. The area is very quiet and peaceful. The beds were VERY comfortable. Even during summer the fans did a great job keeping things cool. Plenty of space for 4 adults, 2 teenagers, and an active, imaginative 7 year old. Plenty of kitchen space and large fridge. We brought all of our food for 5 days. Area residents are very nice and helpful. Trash was super easy as well. Directions on clean up and communication was exceptional with the rental company. We would absolutely stay here again.

Island Park- Bear’s Den

The proximity of the house to Island Park, Yellowstone and even the Grand Tetons was perfect. The house was large enough for our family of 10 (except the kitchen). The house itself could use a lot of love. There was a broken sofa table when we arrived and we received no response from the rental management company. Everything felt a bit outdated. Downstairs was clean, but upstairs there were dead ants everywhere, no screen on the window and was super hot! Downstairs was very cold. This turned out to be because the pilot light on the fireplace was not working. The propane company came to deliver, which was fine, but he wanted to come in to check the pilot light. We were there, so it was fine, but it didn’t work and he said he was going to have his boss come back later that day and look at it. If we hadn’t been there, we never would have known and weren’t thrilled about other people coming in and out while we were staying there, especially with no notice.

Needs some work

This gem may sleep 13 but the kitchen only holds 2. The cleaning crew needs to up its game by cleaning the glass tables and vacuuming the ibuprofen pills under the bunk room beds. I’m has tons of potential but needs some work. The booking agency needs to answer their phones rather than having the guests text them. We never could figure out how to start the gas fire stove

Back to nature

The property was accurately presented and was very comfortable. We enjoyed the large living area and the fireplace. The water system failed on our last day but the property managers were great in getting it fixed without any interruption of our time. Would love to go back sometime next year.
