About this property

Placer Cabin in Yellowstone City Guest Ranch

This cabin has been remodeled and restored. It now sleeps six and has one and a half bathrooms. It also has a full kitchen, washer and dryer, living room, and great views. The property is centrally located in Paradise Valley.

We have lived here our entire lives. Our family came to the area in 1873. We are one mile from a natural hot springs with swimming available. You can hear, Emigrant Creek running by the cabin, no highway noise.

Swimming, horseback riding, day spa, rafting, Five star restaurant all with in a mile of the cabin. Unlimited hiking, beautiful views, fresh mountain air and a waterfalls 2 miles up the creek from the cabin. And much more.

As much or as little as they would like.

We are away from the highway noise yet easily accessed. This is a quiet area and we live a simple life. It is easy to spend all of your time in Yellowstone Park. We have had many guests say that they wished they would have spent more time exploring Emigrant Creek.

We loved our stay at the cabin. Everything we needed was provided and the location near Chico was beautiful. We especially loved the quiet walk up the road to the waterfall. The sound of the creek was great at night as well.

Cozy, historic and comfortable stay. We spent a week here and I already miss it. Bryan was a great host. The floor plan was perfect for our needs. It is a few miles of dirt road so if you are a city person you might not be prepared for that. We would go back in a heartbeat.

The house was nice. The gps estimate from Yellowstone National park was inaccurate, because the posted speed limit was higher than you could actually reasonably drive. I think it was worth the drive though. The place was clean, and the beds were comfortable.

Absolutely gorgeous, modern but historic cabin tucked away in a location near many attractions. Everything was clean & well appointed. We enjoyed sitting on the little backyard bridge just listening to the stream rapids running beneath. Very relaxing! I hope to be back!

Wonderful stay

We loved our stay. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. It was located very close to the Chico hot springs that are very nice to soak in after a day of hiking in Yellowstone. We also took a nice walk up the road to the waterfall that was absolutely beautiful.

Great cabin in the middle of nowhere

Great cabin - well kept & clean. Only (slight) downside is that it's pretty off the beaten path & a little long to get to if you are going to explore Yellowstone like we did.

Montana Getaway

Montana is truly a magnificent state to explore. We thoroughly enjoyed Bryan’s cabin and only had to hop in the car for minutes to fish the Yellowstone River, grab a coffee at Chico Hot Springs or get some BBQ in Emigrant. It’s also very close to the north entrance of Yellowstone. We cannot wait to return one day…thanks Bryan for a fantastic stay!

Peaceful Retreat

We loved staying at the Placer cabin. Rich in history and beauty, and convenient to everything Paradise Valley has to offer. While we enjoyed exploring, we found ourselves eager to get back to the cabin to enjoy the front porch and take in the views. Bryan is a wonderful host. We will definitely return!

Amazing views and Cozy

Great secluded location just outside Yellowstone yet close enough to town. Very cozy home away from home. Has everything you need. Awesome sounds of the creek just steps outside the back windows.

About the host

Hosted by Bryan

Host profile image
My name is Bryan and I have lived in Montana, in the Paradise Valley, for all of my adult life. When I am not exploring our property on Emigrant Creek with my faithful standard poodle and lovely wife, I am working in the Valley or Yellowstone National Park. I love this area and can give advice on where the best spots are.

Why they chose this property

My wife and I finished remodeling this cabin 2013. We thought it important to restore the logs on the inside for all to enjoy the rich history of the building. Here is where the hand work of generations past can be seen and appreciated.

What makes this property unique

The full length porch allows sitting and enjoying the cool breeze that always comes down the creek in the evenings. Our proximity to Chico Hot Springs is also a luxury with their fine dining and hot water spring pools for swimming.
