Perfect stay

Perfect Stay! We had a fantastic time at this VRBO property! The house was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully equipped, the beds were super cozy. The location was ideal—quiet yet close to all the local attractions. The host was incredibly responsive and made check-in a breeze. We would definitely stay here again!

The property was a fun place to stay during our visit to Rexburg. It was clean, decorated well, comfortable and we felt safe as it is located right next to the police station. The only minor complaint was the beds were more firm than I prefer, but this is minor.

Fun unique spot

I love staying in places with character like this. Be aware you do need to be able to navigate stairs here. Also be aware that the door between the bathroom and the non-master bedroom has a large window. Full privacy BUT if you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, it shines a lot of light into that bedroom. We accidentally woke up the kids before we realized. But the place was clean and cute and just what we needed.

Fabulous!

The apartment is so smartly decorated and has a comfortable feel to it. The rooms are spacious and my husband said he could live there full time and be happy, Diane has thought of everything! We felt so comfortable and at home there. We hung out with our boys and had family dinners, it was wonderful! I’ve already told friends about the place and they are going to book next time they’re in Rexburg and we will too.

Fantastic experience

This is a beautiful 2 bedroom loft in downtown Rexburg. It is within walking distance of stores, groceries, restaurants, sweeties, and the university. It’s also a great base to explore surrounding areas in Idaho and western Wyoming. The loft is comfortable and well provisioned. The hosts were attentive, flexible, and great to work with. We’d absolutely stay here again.

Thank you for all the instructional videos, which made our arrival, parking, and settling in so easy. There was noise from the street at night and early morning, but not a deal breaker. We appreciated the tips on the nearby restaurants and downstairs bakery. It was a wonderful stay.

Easy peasy

Had a seamless stay from start to finish. Unit was ready prior to check-in time and we were notified so we could benefit from it. Directions were not obvious, but we received written and video clarification .....which really came in handy when we arrived 3am to check in😂😂😂. Unit was well appointed and extremely clean. Strategically designed and fully accommodating of Apple and Android devices, USB and USB-c charging, and Bluetooth speakers and smart TVs. Great linen's and mattresses. Overall, a GREAT experience!!! The only precaution is the number of steps needed to get to the apartment. Sometimes we do multigenerational traveling and it would NOT have worked for my mom. Also....HVAC is not centralized(making privacy in adult activities a challenge....lol). Still......well worth every penny and would rent again in a a heartbeat!!!

My family had been backpacking a week and stayed here for one night before traveling home. It was a lovely place to stay and clean up and walk to get food. We even washed our clothes! Everything was clean amd comfortable. Our kids are 4 6 and 9, they loved the games and especially the TV in their room!

Great Loft, great location!

Great location for exploration of national parks, forests, wilderness areas and back side of the Tetons, without the congestion; yet, close enough to Jackson Hole and Yellowstone for day trips. Also, only thirty minutes to get back to Idaho Falls airport when time to return home.

About the host

Hosted by Greg and Diana Thomason

Host profile image
Greg and I love Rexburg. Greg was born and raised on a potato farm. His grandparents homesteaded the land. I came to Ricks College and fell in love with him and the town. Everyone is friendly here.

We married 6 days after the Teton Dam collapse in 1976. I'll never forget the video of the house floating down main street. (I have some historical books in Yellowstone Loft)

We raised 5 children in this wonderful town. Each of them long to return. We spent our time motorbiking, camping, baseball, skiing and exploring all the beautiful sites surrounding us. Rexburg truly is the gateway to adventure.

Why they chose this property

Choosing to semi-retire, we decided it was time to convert our unique Yellowstone Loft (we've always loved the crazy history behind it) into a short-term rental. It was our desire to share the nostalgic charm of the early 1900's with the world! The doors in this early medical office still have original glass!

It was truly a labor of love. Greg and I renovated it by ourselves. Every inch has been painstakingly improved to provide a restful surrounding for our guests.

What makes this property unique

Location is a genuine benefit here. Everything you need is close, most within walking distance. We are close to several national parks as well. We tried to think of everything a guest could desire. Please let us know if there is anything we can improve upon.

Even though the Loft overlooks Main St, it's surprisingly private and quiet. Security is an added bonus due to the police department next door.
