About this property

Yellowstone Log Home

This waterfront log home on Henry's Lake is 16.27 miles from the West Yellowstone entrance. We have a limit of 8 people, including children. We charge a $70 Accidental Rental Property Damage Coverage of $3,000. We bless you by covering the 3% credit card processing fee.

We book 7 nights only during the summer, Saturday to Saturday. You are welcome to email us for shorter stays.

The home It is constructed of 14-inch diameter hand-peeled logs, creating a cozy and rustic lodge atmosphere. The deck offers an unobstructed view of the lake. You'll enjoy returning to this lovely, quiet log home after a busy day exploring Yellowstone National Park.

Roxane's favorite thing is sitting on the porch with a cup of tea and listening to the water lap the shore. Greg enjoys watching the wildlife and catching them too (fish).

You'll enjoy quality time with friends and family with gorgeous views of Henry's Lake and the mountains on each side. Relax and unwind as you take in the peace and quiet. The lakeside firepit will make forever memories in the evenings. The large lawn sports equipment for outside activities.

The latest hatch of goslings eat the grass and dandelions in the spring. The Grand Tetons are visible in the far distance. The mountains of the Continental Divide line both sides of the lake. They are frequently topped with snow in May, September, and October.

A 2017 remodel provides each of our four bedrooms with its own bathroom and shower. You will love the custom family-made decor with attractive Amish wagon-wheel chandelier, and trout, bear and elk lamps. See photo of floor layout at the end of photos. We have wifi TV and internet and black-out curtains in every room, 2024.

This is a great fishing/sightseeing/shopping vacation. We are situated on Henry's Lake, Island Park, Idaho, one of the finest trophy still-water fisheries in North America. The home has a private marina one house away, with a boat launch and post tie-ups. Wild Rose Ranch, a boat rental company, is five minutes away.

Locals catch and release many trout a day using wet fly techniques from a boat or float tube. Waders are helpful for fishing from the shore in May, September, and October. Cool temperatures allow the fish to come closer to shore.

Because there are 3 streams feeding into the lake on either side of the home, paddling a float tube back and forth in front of the home at sunrise and sunset can provide a great yield of fish.

Henry's Lake has abundant populations of Cutthroat, Brook, Rainbow and trophy hybrid Cutbow (Cutthroat/Rainbow) trout.

The largest fish in Henry's Lake are the rainbow/cutthroat hybrids that tip the scales at 16 pounds. The state record for brook trout weighs in at 7.2 pounds and was caught in Henry’s Lake.

You can fish the nearby blue ribbon Madison River, Henry's Fork of the Snake River, Hebgen Lake, and Quake Lake within a 30 minute drive or less. Yellowstone Lak, in the Park, is 1.5 hrs. away, where there are no limits on delicious Lake trout, considered invasive.

Surrounded by the Targhee National Forest, the home is visited by elk, deer, moose, a red fox, and a resident muskrat. Local osprey and bald eagles cruise the shoreline. Coyotes and owls can often be heard at night.

The living room has a beautiful oak floor with three leather couches, seating for 9, Digital Video Recorder (DVR) and DVD player with surround sound.

The white tail deer on the walls add to the rustic charm. The adjoining kitchen features a large stainless steel refrigerator, microwave, gas stove, and dishwasher.

It is fully equipped with anything you might need to cook, from a steak dinner to a crock pot meal. We take pride in stocking our kitchen as if it were our own home, flours and sugars and spices, always with your comfort in mind.

In West Yellowstone, visit the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center, where you can view grizzlies and wolves in a natural habitat. Or visit the IMAX theater with several nature-oriented films offered daily.

In Island Park you'll enjoy visiting Big Springs and Johnny Sack's cabin, which is the head-water spring for the Henry's Fork River. The Upper and Lower Mesa Falls in Island Park are also well worth a visit. These falls can be enjoyed closer than any others in Yellowstone.

Our stay was fantastic! The property is beautifully located along the lake and is also very conveniently located for seeing the different sights in the area. The view from the back deck was great on the sunny days and we had one rainout day but we’re perfectly cozy spending the day inside. I would highly recommend!

This is a large home that was terrific for our group of 7 (4 adults and 3 kids). The house was roomy and in a lovely location on Lake Henry. We especially enjoyed the two pellet stoves which we used every day after our return from day-long springtime trips into wet, cold and at times snowy Yellowstone.

About the host

Hosted by Roxane and Greg

Host profile image
We are a family of avid fishermen and musicians that enjoy the outdoors. We vacationed in the area so Roxane could see Yellowstone National Park for the first time and fish. While fishing at Henrys Lake, we discovered this home for sale. We have enjoyed working on the home, designing the remodel, and creating many of the custom furnishings. We stay at the home twice a year to open and close the property and maintain it.

Why they chose this property

CHECK OUR AMAZING VIRTUAL TOUR https://youriguide.com/embed/5430_pintail_rd_island_park_id?unbranded=1&bgcolor=FFFFFF

Being fishermen, we have rented many lakefront properties. This home and its location took our breath away. We remodeled in the winter of 2010. We love sitting on the steps facing the lake and purchased a custom log bench to enjoy that view. We feel privileged to share such a beautiful home.

What makes this property unique

Guests tell us that the bench on the deck is one of the most peaceful places. Months later, they tell us that they still think about the moments spent there. The fire pit is also a time where groups enjoy closeness that is rarely found in our busy lives. The home is close enough to supermarkets to get needed supplies, yet far enough away to feel secluded, with only the sounds of nature. With no outside lights in the area, the light from the stars and moon are breathtaking. Many of the furnishings are custom made using antique components, providing a level of quality that is rarely found in a vacation rental. The animal life still surprises us. One day the deck light turned on to reveal a red fox. Another day looking out a window early one morning, we noticed a herd of elk walking through the property grounds. I keep trying to get a picture of the quick short-tailed weasel, keeping the mice under control in the spring. The latest hatch of goslings and ducklings are fun to watch as they eat the backyard grass in the spring. In the fall, we have seen muskrats chase ducks around the property ponds.
